What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Royce Burger Bar is praised for its delicious, standout burgers and well-seasoned fries, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. While many rave about the food and drinks, some reviews mention inconsistencies in service and cleanliness.
"Really solid burger. Not a smash burger but not like a thick burger. Comes with two patties by default.
Fries and cheese curds really stood out to me both were really good and well seasoned.
Definitely worth a stop in if you're in the area.
Love the cozy little bar atmosphere with the couches."
Ryan Trombatore (Dunago)
"So I searched for the best burger in Reno. This is one of the locations that came up. Since I have never tried it, I thought I would give it a shot. The burger was okay.The fries pretty good.However the service was not very good. They have no table service and i'm not sure what I tipped for since I had a bus my own table."

The Best Bars In Reno, Nevada
Royce is a bar in downtown Reno that is was established with the intent of lingering visits. Although there is an expanded drinks menu, the main focus is on wine and whiskey, of which there is a multitude of choices. Royce offers a delicious food menu—of which the burger is a must-try—however, it is only served until nine in the evening.
Reno’s Food Scene Is on a Winning Streak
The burger and fries (in both classic and portobello varieties) at Royce Burger Bar are a community staple. The hip Kauboi Izakaya serves classic Japanese fare like yakitori and gyoza as well as delightful house specialties like the fried rice with duck breast and crackling. Originally from South Korea, TJ and Hani Cho started Arario as a food truck around the same time the Tesla gigafactory (located in the country’s largest industrial park) opened near the city in 2016, and it’s grown into a brick and mortar known for its excellent bibimbap and must-try Kimchee Fries.
