Tamarack Junction Restaurant Casino 1k711

Tamarack Junction Casino is a local’s favorite in Reno, Nevada. Reno isn’t the best-known gambling spot in the state – that honor goes to Las Vegas, far to the south. Reno’s position closer to Northern California makes it a likely spot for casino gambling fans in that state to jump the border and have a little fun. 31676q

More than 460 games are available in a space much larger than usually reserved for that number of games – the philosophy at Tamarack Junction runs counter to what’s usually found in American gambling halls. Rather than cover every square inch of floor space with the bright lights and whistles and animations found on modern slot and video poker games, the casino staff has spaced the games out to brighten up the gaming floor.

Unfortunately for fans of traditional casino gambling, none of those 460 games are classic table games like roulette or blackjack – in fact, no live games besides keno and bingo are available here at all. Reno is something of a tourist hotspot in its own right, but off its small Strip most of the gaming venues are for locals. Such is the case with Tamarack Junction.

Out of multiple dining and drinking venues on the property, the three below are the most relevant to gamblers’ interest, located adjacent to the casino gaming floor and open at likely playing times.

TJ’s Patio is a casual bar and grill serving food between the hours of 11 AM and 11 PM year-round.

The Dining Car Restaurant has a separate entrance off the lobby next to the entrance to the gaming floor, with a slightly more upscale atmosphere and menu than other eateries on-site.

Sully’s Sports Bar & Grill has twenty big TV screens showing sports, a full-service bar, and traditional American bar fare.
