Read the "EXCELLENT" review, there is nothing more I can say. This is my 2nd trip and review here and my opinion is the same as it was on November 17, 2016. Just passing on this hint: They open at 5pm for dinner, be there at 5 on busy nights (Thursday, Friday and Saturday) if you don't want to wait too long, tables are first come, first serve, they only take reservations for large groups, however you can really enjoy the bar / waiting area while you wait. The second hint is that this place is located in an absolutely charming and fun little valley town. Make an afternoon/evening out of it and park and walk around Gardnerville, take in some shops, places of interested, get into the local culture and be a part of Nevada's rich and amazing history. Trust me on this....

Some friends and I ate here spur of the moment a few weeks ago and were pleasantly surprised.
My burger was huge, cooked just right and delicous. The other 3 ordered sandwiches and all said they were very good.
My only complaint was it took quite a long time (20-25 minutes) to get our food and it wasn't very busy when we arrived. By the time we left, it was packed, I can only imagine how long those customers had to wait!

Amazing and awesome! You can get sampler tastes of any of the flavors. They have new flavors every so often, and have a TON of toppings! You can get them all yourself and you pay for the frozen yogurt by weight. Delicious and so much fun. Love this place so much.

a clean store with wide aisles and in addition to the organic veggie section, there is also a small section for organic and non gmo food products - if their deli only carried Boars Head meats, I'd do all my shopping there.

Great restaurant, fantastic view of Topaz Lake. Good food, reasonable prices. Friendly service. Food much improved from previous years.
That said- manage expectations. This is not fine dining and was not intended to be.
Just good honest food at honest prices delivered with a smile.
Gotta love it.

Ordered the corned beef hash and for the first time ever was asked if I would like it crispy! Yeah. It made my plate greasy compared to the other breakfasts on the table, so be advised. The home fries are a lot less greasy than the hash browns.
We loved the artwork and cowboy artifacts. This place specializes in comfort food and plenty of it. I saw the most wonderful chef salad at a neighboring table. Maybe next time?

I like the choices of lighter foods for snack or light meal. The door is problematic in cold weather as it opens wide and cools the seating area quickly

The cute place caught our eye; easy to get off and on the main street of Minden. Excellent coffee and coffee drinks, and the goodies looked tasty!
9. Julio's Restaurant

Reviewed By SuperRVer
First dining experience, a 93rd birthday dinner for my husband. From greetings at the entrance all the way through a delicious dinner, the service was attentive. Filet mignon medium rare melting in your mouth. Ribeye medium rare to die for. An excellent bottle of wine to accompany. Green salad and Ceasar's salad filled the entire plate. Nothing skimpy here. An unusual shrimp appetizer had my husband scooping up the sauce as well.
Most dinners just under $30 and well worth it. This fine restaurant, though relatively small in size, is very big on gracious, excellent dining. Julio is the chef and he is a "chef." Entrees cooked to perfection and beautifully presented.
Though reservations are a good idea, while we were there a party of 8 without a reservation was quickly accommodated as the staff took only a few minutes to rearrange tables and chairs like a finely tuned staff should do. Visitors enjoying fine dining at reasonable cost.
Located just off 395 and Waterloo in Gardnerville, NV on the west side behind the ARCO gas station in a small strip mall. Lots of parking. Easy to find. Try it.
10. CV Steak House

Reviewed By Ray W - Scottsdale, Arizona
As usual we vacation at the Carson Valley Inn. This year, July-August we stayed for nine nights. We ate at the CV Steak Restaurant eight nights. Every meal was outstanding, except the chicken marsala which was not good, the manager took the meal off the bill. All other meals were outstanding. One night I had the special which was one lamb chop, small filet and pork tenderloin. Oh my what a great dinner. Of course all meals come with salad, great bread, potato and vegetables. Every other night I had the halibut. I always thought how could I get good halibut in Minden, oh was I wrong. There is a high end fish restaurant near where we live and their halibut could not compare with the CV halibut. The serving was much larger, better tasting and of course less expensive. The restaurant near us charges more just for a piece of halibut that comes with nothing except the plate. My wife had the lamb chops which were outstanding. She had the shrimp cocktail which again was better that the seafood restaurant near us. The dining area is very nice and quiet and you do not smell any smoke from the casino or hear any noise. In the same general area is a small bar which is great because it is non smoking. Of course the bar comes with video poker. The management should be very proud of their restaurant. For food and service it equals any restaurant in Scottsdale, Arizona. The manager Jeanine, not sure of spelling, was outstanding and always greeted us with a smile and welcomed us back. If you stay at the Carson Valley Inn this is a must place for dinner.
