If you're looking for a comfortable spot for drinks and appetizers that's a little off-center and fun, this is it! Their motto of Classic with a Twist is only the beginning of your good time at The Emerson in Midtown Reno. Structured in an industrial-style setting, the '60s Swedish-influenced furniture puts you in an earlier age of attitude adjustment, especially with old black and white movies playing on a wall and Swing music playing in the background. Take a walk on the wild side and try one of their specialty cocktails. The ingredients might seem unusual to you, but you'll be pleasantly surprised with the results. Tell the bartender what your typical cocktail is, and they'll make suggestions from the menu. If wine or beer is your preference, they've got you covered. Women take over here with women-owned wineries or winemakers providing the assortment of vino and 10 Torr beer, brewed by local women, on tap. Share some small plates from the food menu that includes street tacos and sliders plus deviled eggs and crostinis. Keep the party going with one of the fun events like Drag Bingo, Drag Brunch or Jazz Night on select Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays.
