The Best Restaurants and Bars in Reno, Nevada | Eater Vegas

"Mark Estee, probably the closest thing Reno has to its own celebrity chef, originally opened Liberty Food & Wine Exchange as a butchery, market, and sandwich shop before it evolved into a full-fledged restaurant. Meats are still carved up in-house — in the basement to be specific — and sourced locally from a Minden ranch. The menu also takes pride in using produce from nearby farms and a wood-fired oven that’s equally adaptable for pizzas, seafood, and vegetables. Yet for all the attention to detail, Liberty doesn’t take itself too seriously. Black-and-white photos of ’80s celebrities decorate the main dining room and the loose, casual atmosphere suits the location, just steps away from the scenic Riverwalk in downtown Reno." - Rob Kachelriess
