Happiness is Sharing a Meal

When you go on a trip, it’s important that you feel confident your family will be able to easily conquer their cravings. To stay hungry for adventure and fueled with food. That’s why we highlighted some of the best family-friendly restaurants in Reno and Lake Tahoe.

Reno’s dining scene is impressive, with plenty of family-friendly restaurants that strive to push the boundaries of flavor and innovation—all while making damn good dishes. Kids can enjoy a variety of cuisines, from New American to Mexican, while parents can keep them entertained with unique offerings, like movies or board games.

Some might even say the dishes are elevated to match the altitude. Whether you’re kicking off a day of exploration in Reno Tahoe or celebrating a special occasion, there’s a family restaurant for everyone to dine happily.
