    There should be more stars for service; Katie is our favorite brunch server! She always knows our drink order and my husband’s usual food order. I usually change up what I get food-wise, but always sub the potatoes for sliced tomatoes and she remembers that too! Their food is always excellent, the atmosphere is upscale casual, and it’s all around always a great dining experience!

    We have dined at Roxy many times, in fact every time we’ve been to Reno. This time however, it was probably the best meal yet. My wife had a lobster tail with garlic mashed potatoes and steamed asparagus. I had the filet with their glazed carrots. We enjoyed several glasses of Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon with our meal. Dessert was an affogato and we each had a Cafe’ Diablo prepared table side. Absolutely amazing! It’s why we keep coming back!

    A party of four enjoyed a fabulous Christmas Dinner 2024. We were greeted with a smile, taken to our table and immediately had menus, water, and drinks. The server was amazing. She took care of our every need. She checked on us several times and made sure we had everything we needed and it was a busy night. The busser was always there picking up dishes and glasses as we finished. The food was excellent, service marvelous and the ambience was great! Great place to dine and we will be back soon.

    Had a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner at the Water Bar. We ordered off the regular dinner menu Steak & Lobster for me and Prime Rib for hubby. Both were cooked as requested and served in a timely manner. Server was very attentive and kept water glasses full and drinks served promptly. Ambience was nice and festive and we had a great table with view of the marina. Highly recommend!!!

    Even though we couldn’t make our original reservation time on Christmas Eve because of flight was delayed, they did a great job of getting us in anyways so we could enjoy our evening. Great food, decent wine pours & the meatball appetizer was delicious and good for a table of 4. :)
