Pig out on Reno's smoking barbecue scene. There’s no denying that the concept of barbecue differs depending on what part of the country you’re from. However, no matter your background, the restaurants in Reno have barbecue options to delight everyone. From Louisiana-style pulled pork to smoky beef brisket that’s prepared right in the city, you can sample barbecue from East to West all under one roof. Or if you’re looking to get your grill on, there’s a restaurant in Reno that serves signature cocktail drinks and maintains a patio with several grills. Bar customers are invited to BYOB (bring your own barbecue) to toss over the charcoals, or they can purchase cuts onsite.

Reno's Midtown District is a success story in itself. Located right in the center of everything, just adjacent to the downtown, this area was long considered nothing special, perhaps even a little sketchy. Then a group of local businesses realized just how cool this community really is and decided to let the rest of the world know about it too. The result has been a section of Reno that celebrates special established shops and welcomes new and hip businesses as well. There are restaurants, retail stores, museums, nightlife and entertainment, professional services and more, all with a chic nouveau twist on the classic Biggest Little attitude.
