Mari Chuy’s Tequileria - Rancharrah 7500 Rancharrah Parkway, Reno, NV 89511

"Incredible experience... Scratch made Latin/Mexican food. Amazing service... Great drinks and a beautiful, modern layout in this location. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED... Reno had some amazing Mexican restaurants, but this just became my new favorite. Check out the wild shrimp Molcajete I got. Incredible. Try this place..."

"This is the second time eating at Mari Chuy’s, 1st time was at the Victorian Square location in Sparks and it was horrible all the way around, service and food. 2nd was here and it was hands down 100x better than the first experience. Service was excellent and food was amazing. We will definitely be back."

"We went last night for dinner to celebrate my birthday! It was a nice dinner and they really cared about my food allergies. The server made sure to ask me questions before making it. I love that they have vegetarian options! I ordered the vegetarian molcajete and it was delicious. They also gave me a birthday shot! I love the art and the environment as well."

"This is from a visit a couple months ago. Three words: Gourmet Rip Off. This new surrounding area is nice and upscale/yuppy'ish - had a DJ and couples, singles and families conversing, playing lawn chess and generally an upbeat, white-collar, festive atmosphere. The restaurant therefore mimics the surroundings with a semi-upscale modern interior as opposed to a more cozy atmosphere of your typical authentic family Mexican restaurant. They (like the surrounding areas) are catering to upscale patrons looking for "elevated" yet casual dining experiences. This is reflected by the creative menu, high prices, and small portions. I mean really small portions compared to your typical family Mexican restaurant. My 22-year old son would need to eat three entrees here to get full as opposed to one in a traditional family Mexican restaurant. I ate my small (barely larger than a golf ball size) scoop of rice in two bites. Is it really going to cost that much to give a generous portion of low-cost ingredients when the main entree (enchiladas in my case) are about half the size of a traditional Mexican restaurant? And to boot, wine pour were laughable. 5 oz at best. I have no problem paying a premium for a good portion of good food in an upscale atmosphere but I left this place feeling like this establishment is trying to milk the patrons for all they are worth given the new, creative surroundings of Rancharrah. A recession would totally clobber this kind of a development. This is a splurge kind of Mexican Restaurant assuming you're not very hungry. ** PS. For comparison I included a photo of what my plate looked at a restaurant I ate at 3 weeks after for the same price and it tasted as good with about 3 times the food and not just 3 times the beans and rice!"

"Atmosphere for days. A lovely, inviting round bar, and an incredible selection of tequilas and margaritas. For serious tequila lovers they have a limited membership Tequila Society with prominent tequila lockers that present as a tequila library, creating visual interest that is part of artful vibe of the atmosphere. The menu is tapas and tailored dishes that represent a realistic spectrum of Mexican dishes, not in the style of American-Mexican slop on a plate, but curated intentionally to be both authentic and approachable. Items are often separated on the plate (see pictures) so that a particular eater can segregate unwanted items easily. The quality of the ingredients is high, the prices are incredibly reasonable, the location is extremely accessible with plenty of parking and fun outdoor games in the courtyard if you do have to wait for a table."
