Waitress half dressed elderly woman very rude. Refused to split a tab. Just do your job. Taking shots at work with the owner. The owner drunkenly yelling that he doesn't have to split the tab. Yelling pointing his finger in my face while I'm holding my kids hands. What kind of business practices are these?

I ordered a Chicago Hotdog. And it had to be the worst hotdog I've ever had. Now mind you I have never ordered a hotdog at a sit date restaurant. I recommend the beef hotdogs at Sam's club over this establishment any day.

The Italian hot beef is excellent! I lived in the Midwest a few years and fell in love with Portillos hot beef sandwiches, and this place does them even better. The fried mushrooms are also great, and my husband thinks these are the best jalapeño poppers he's had. We've been here 5-6 times and the food is consistent and always delicious. We'll keep coming back!

Chicago dog is on point here. A little small but there is an option for a double dog. The Italian beef sandwich with the spicy gravy is a must! Service was a little off but I will definitely return. These people brought Chicago to Reno for sure

It’s a bar. With dogs and pizza. Dogs were good. Pizza was good. I’d return.

It appears they've never been to Chicago, at least as far as Italian beef and sausage go. I expected slices of Italian beef and a sausage on the sandwich I ordered. What I got was shredded, almost chopped beef and I had to search for the minuscule piece of sausage. This for a sandwich of $17.00 which looked nothing like the picture on their website. Did I mentioned the overpowering seasoning on the sandwich. It looks like they served me leftover or bottom of the pot beef and had to hunt through the kitchen to locate 1/2 of an Italian sausage. The waitress came back to make sure they put sausage on the sandwich when she collected the bill. I have had combos in Chicago and this one is the worst rendition I have ever had. Do not waste your money! Order beef mail order from portillos you will be better off!

Taste of Chicago deep dish was fantastic. Be prepared to wait a long time 45 min to get your pizza. It's worth the wait . It's got the feel of a bar in an off the wall place. The staff were very nice

The beans were salty. Pizza was ok. 50$ on a medium pizza and sliders is ridiculous.

This place was amazing. The waiter who served us was hilarious. I don't know what his name was but he has light eyes maybe Hazel or something? He made us laugh a lot. The only complaint I have is the wait for food was a really long time. But that's only because there were 2 people working: a cook and a waiter. The restaurant itself was really good looking. It made me feel really relaxed like all my anxiety disappeared. The food was really good too. And that's a lot coming from me, because I'm not easily impressed.Kid-friendliness: My whole family came and I have 3 little brothers. Our waiter was very nice to them and made them laugh. Very kid friendly.

This restaurant is a true gem for this Chicagoan relocated to Reno! The authentic Chicago style pizza is an absolute delight, delivering that authentic (cornmeal) taste you'd expect from Illinois. It takes an hour to bake, so be prepared to wait but it is Oh So Worth It. The Chicago dogs were spot on, showcasing the true essence of the city - no ketchup, just the perfect combination of flavors (don't skip the sport peppers, they are KEY). REAL Vienna Beef in the desert, who woulda thunk?! The beer selection is decent with some Chicago favorites and a whole lot of Malort. The added bonus is pinball machines, especially for my 2-year-old. Despite being short-staffed with only one multitasking waitress/bartender, she did an exceptional job managing our group of 6, ensuring top-notch service. Overall, this is a must-visit spot for anyone craving genuine Chicago cuisine and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere. Sadly, I stuffed myself so full with Pizza, Dogs and Breaded Mushrooms, I didn't have room for Tiramisu. Next time!
Stellar spot! The Italian beef is always fantastic! Mimi is a wonderful bartender! Atmosphere is solid with some regulars and some Illinois peeps! If you're a Bears fan this is your spot! And the food is pretty tasty too - And they have Ms PAC man

We went to Taste of Chicago yesterday. I ordered the Greek hot dog and my friend ordered the Chicago dog. Both were excellent. In addition, we ordered the Italian beef sandwich to share. The hot dogs were great, but the beef sandwich, with the hot peppers and gravy, was incredible. Kathy, who took care of our order, was funny and wonderful. People like her will make me return to a place. When I lived in Chicago, I used to go to Portillo's. Their Italian beef sandwiches were amazing. Taste Of Chicago's sandwiches are very similar. Thank you, Kathy!

Nice little place in a shopping mall near the Atlantis Casino. If you crave authentic Chicago food and are willing to pay extra for it, this is the place for you!
