AWARENESS: I've seen Beefy's on various food channels and always wanted to give it try. This last weekend, while visiting the Reno area, I got my chance. NARRATIVE: If you're driving down S. Virginia St. keeping an eye out for Beefy's, you'll probably drive right by it. It's not big. It blends in with the surrounding buildings and, there's no dazzle-dazzle from the front to give its location away. Once I found Beefy's and some parking, we headed to the back-side of the restaurant since we had our dogs with us. Out back, they are five large picnic tables with umbrellas for shade or in our case, rain. Orders for drinks and meals were taken by our sever via an iPad and within 15 minutes, everything arrived at the table. The Food - I ordered the Pastrami Burger, medium rare and the wife ordered their Garlic Fries and a burger. My burger was fantastic. Cooked to order, juicy, favorable and the plus, not salty. The Garlic Fries were s=some of the best I've eaten. Cooked crispy and loaded with minced garlic. It didn't disapoint. SCENE: Beefy's is located at the corner of E. Arroyo St. and S. Virginia St. in the Midtown area of Reno. RECOMMENDATION(S): Fantastic burgers, service and beers. Highly recommened.

Haven't been here in years but so happy we went back. The burgers are delicious and there's something on the menu for everyone. Our server was great and owner was personally stopping by to check on everyone also. The restaurant is tiny so plan to wait to be seated or there's a few tables outside if it's warm enough. 10000/10

Holy moly! I ordered the surf and turf and left me tell you.... This burger..... it came out and instantly I said dang!!!!! The appearance was amazing, the taste was even better. The only thing that made this experience better, was this was my first time visiting and I was at the bar!!!

Went for lunch with friends, got the Ruby mountain Ruben and the Philly cheese steak sandwich, with some pretty tasty Parmesan Garlic fries. Got to sit outside in some nice weather. Service was good, and pretty speedy. Always a good time!

Another special spot from vacation. We ended up at this spot just by chance. If you don't really look for this spot you will definitely miss it. Great food with a small town vibe. Get here early and make sure you come hungry. Philly cheesesteak was on point and the fries each order was huge so we split as a family.

A great little hole in the wall place to grab fries a shake onion rings and a burger. Reasonably price very friendly waitress.

After years of wondering how it would be to eat at Beefy's, my husband and I finally had lunch here today! The artist in me loves its quirky, retro style - like something you would see in the middle of nowhere along Route 66. And I like that they offer some non-"beefy" items. My husband likes their reasonable prices, by today's standards. They have a few parking spaces in back and we were lucky to snag one of those. We walked up to a "please wait to be seated" sign but were greeted immediately and shown to an available outdoor picnic table. Although it was a hot day, each table has an umbrella and it felt cool in the shade with the breeze. Our server was quick and friendly. He told us that everything was available today except for shakes. Darn! My husband ordered the Green Horn Burger (comes with green chilis and pepperjack cheese) while I had Stacy's Green Eyed Monster (grilled cheese, with green chilis and avocado on sourdough). We also shared an order of garlic fries. We noticed that they have a burger called "Awesome, Awesome" which is obviously their answer to the former Reno staple, the Awful, Awful burger. My husband thought his burger was good, high praise for him! And I really enjoyed my sandwich! As for the fries, we both agreed that we have had better. Their Happy Hour is from 2-5 (wing specials and $1 off draught beers) and we noticed that most people there were taking advantage of it by having beer with their meals. We will have to come back someday for that - my husband is a big fan of wings!

Wow, 7 years later and I still have nothing but good things to say about Beefy's! It's like a dive burger bar that you have to go experience to truly appreciate. The seating is limited, the service can be a bit abrupt, and it all makes the experience that much better! I'm always shocked by how many options they have on the menu for such a small kitchen but every time I've eaten here I'm satisfied. Expect to wait a bit, this is not a fast casual burger joint. They have beers on draft, and it can be an especially pleasant experience when the weather is nice and you can sit outside. Pastrami burger is my go to, it's exactly what I want out of a specialty burger, and the fries are always fresh and delicious. One of my favorite burger joints, a must try if you are visiting Reno or a local looking for a good burger. FYI, There is also some history to the building, which is a modular style building that was used back in the day, and was moved here by Train. I can't recall all the details, worth an ask if you are there next time.
