    The restaurant was eerily empty. Very pretty inside with plenty of tables. There were only our table and a single diner. We were greeted right away and seated. Very odd the waiter set down a metal serving water pitcher for us. Quite heavy and ackward. We ordered the crab artichoke dip. It came with plain crackers and 4 bread round. Not flavorful at all. My husband ordered chicken with risotto. The risotto was crunchy and lukewarm at best. I ordered the avocado salad and had to hunt for the avocado. I believe we are one and done. I see no redemable reason to go back.

    I made a reservation for 4 and called the restaurant to add 2 more people to the reservation. Someone from restaurant called back and confirmed the reservation was now for 6. This was a birthday celebration for my boyfriend. When we arrived, after driving 45 minutes, we found a handwritten note on the door stating the restaurant was closed for Labor Day weekend. A phone call would have been nice. Nothing. Hope to check out Rattlesnake another time.

    It was the weirdest experience. We made reservations for a Sat at 7pm. Walked in and there was one employee manning the hostess stand, restaurant, and bar. There were 2 customers at the bar and a table of 7 in the back. That was IT. The restaurant is big inside and out, but it was a ghost town, the other customers looked at us as if we walked into a closed restaurant. The kitchen is open and you couldn’t see any chefs. We sat down with our paper menu that is very limited and waited about 5 minutes for water while the one employee chatted behind the bar. No music, no ambiance, so we left.

    This place is great....Rattlesnake was fun and our meals on point. There was four of us and everything was very good. We had appetizers , salad and entrees. I had the scallops with risotto (I loved) Hubby had the surf and turf which he said he loved. His steak was cooked perfect medium rare. The cocktails were done well. Support local restaurants not many in Reno. We love Rattlesnake Bistro WE WILL BE BACK SOON!!
