    Excellent service, better beer! The beer cheese soup is the best. Sausages are made locally and the garlic fries are good enough to ruin any date! Always one of my favs to visit with friends! #icky 👍

    Great beer, cheap flights, and pleasant bar food. If you stay in the Nugget hotel don't bother visiting their bars. Just go here!

    Best garlic fries I've ever had. Most places drown their fries in garlic, these have just enough to accent their (very tasty) regular fries.

    Thursday night dinner special, a large cut of prime rib for $16.95 & it was excellent. Beer was very good & friendly, competent service.

    I’ve been going to Great Basin since they opened. Love the beer, love the food! I lived in Sparks for 34 years.

    Take the beer flights and some appetizers. That should be more than enough food and beer. Yum
