Reno, Nev., has never been “as cosmopolitan as its ‘Biggest Little City’ motto suggests,” said Freda Moon in The New York Times. But if your memories of Reno include only strip clubs and “second-rate casinos,” you haven’t been to the Midtown District lately. Previously known as the Bungalow District, the neighborhood took a turn a few years ago when a handful of gastropubs and craft breweries launched a culture change that could remake the image of Reno nightlife.
Old Granite Street EateryLocated a block from Midtown’s main artery, this 3-year-old restaurant makes “an advantageous starting point for an evening out.” Weekday happy hour specials include the restaurant’s entire selection of craft beers, and local farms source the ingredients of the satisfying three-for-$10 small plates. 243 S. Sierra St., (775) 622-3222
