The story
Nestled within the Atlantis Casino Resort in Reno, Nevada, Atlantis Steakhouse has undergone a breathtaking transformation. A multi-million dollar redesign swept away its former under-the-sea aesthetic, replacing it with a sleek, sophisticated interior that evokes the grandeur of a world-class Las Vegas dining room or a sky-high Shanghai restaurant. The only nod to the past? A spectacular 1,100-gallon saltwater fish tank, its tropical inhabitants gliding serenely through the center of the bar — a living work of art that sets the tone for an unforgettable evening.
Atlantis Steakhouse has earned the prestigious Forbes Travel Guide Four-Star award in 2026, a distinction that places it among the finest dining establishments in the region. This recognition reflects an unwavering commitment to quality — from impeccably sourced ingredients to polished, attentive service — making it the premier steakhouse destination in Reno.
The menu at Atlantis Steakhouse is proudly traditional, with carefully chosen modern touches that elevate every course. Guests begin with refined starters such as chilled prawn cocktails, impressive seafood towers, or the prized California abalone — breaded to perfection, tender-chewy in texture, and brightened with a squeeze of fresh lemon. For salad, the choice is equally compelling: a crisp classic wedge, or a Caesar or spinach salad prepared with ceremony tableside, a timeless ritual that never fails to delight.
At the heart of the menu, the steakhouse tradition shines through in every detail, with dishes crafted to satisfy both the purist and the adventurous diner alike.
The bar at Atlantis Steakhouse is a destination in its own right. Expert mixologists bring both depth and creativity to the cocktail program, shaking up time-honored classics like the Sazerac alongside signature creations such as the Moulin Rouge — a captivating blend of raspberry vodka, elderflower liqueur, bitter apéritif, rhubarb bitters, and fresh raspberries. It is, by all accounts, a must-try.
Whether you arrive for a celebratory dinner or a nightcap by the glow of the fish tank, Atlantis Steakhouse offers a rare combination of elegance, warmth, and culinary craft that defines Reno fine dining at its very best.
