Reno Casino dinner and nightlife

Bling It On!

Visit Reno's lively and pampering casino resorts and spas

11.20.2024

When in Reno, casino! Embrace the bright lights and action of the Biggest Little City in the World’s resort and spa casinos. You’ve got options: Silver Legacy, Eldorado, and Peppermill Casino and Spa Resort to name a few. Remember, this is not your father’s casino. Okay, well, maybe it is, but Reno is where traditional meets today. At Peppermill, the lounges, restaurants, spas, shops, and pool scenes are keeping up with a contemporary motif of casino d’elegance.

GLOW CRAZY: Bright lights, Biggest Little City in the World: Reno’s night lights are electrifying. J Resort is located in the heart of Reno’s Neon Line District, showcasing the city’s gaming, art, and musical eclecticism. Art installations from Burning Man and beyond rotate through the area, with dazzling sculptures, and—of course—bright lights, including a nostalgic nod to restored neon signs.

TIP: Check out J Resort’s upcoming live shows at the incredible Glow Plaza.

RENO TAHOE CASINO RESORTS

Reno’s food culture has absolutely flourished. Districts like Midtown buzz with artisan eateries, upscale bars, and independent boutiques. For breakfast, head to Midtown’s phenomenal Perenn Bakery or try the organic dishes at Homegrown Gastropub.

Fix up and look sharp for riverfront dining at The Shore. Take your seat within the restaurant’s modern ambience, which features an open kitchen and dazzling views of the Truckee River, glinted by the Shore’s firepit patio.

Start with happy hour at the adjacent bar and lounge before moving on to the dining menu. Share some Brisket Barbacoa Tacos and go for the pan roasted salmon, or (our favorite) the Shore Room Burger.
