Eldorado Reno Bakery — Restaurant in Reno

One of my all time favorite bakeries and have been coming here for years as well and introducing friends here throughout. Tonight my friend and I wanted something sweet and after tossing around a couple of places I suggested the Eldorado Bakery since I knew it was still open and there's such a great selection that it will satisfy any palate.

I definitely needed this dessert therapy and got a total of 6 different desserts: a fresh fruit flan, a mini lemon cheesecake, a mini pumpkin cheesecake, a peanut butter chocolate brownie, a slice of double fudge chocolate cake, and a slice of lemon cake. My go-to fav is the fruit flan and the fresh fruit is still in season, which makes this my fav. My next favorite was the mini lemon cheesecake and the mini pumpkin cheesecake. They were so cute and tasty that it left me wanting just a little bit more. The chocolate and lemon cake slices are some original favs that never disappoint. I got the peanut butter chocolate brownie to take with me for work tomorrow.

For crafting and creating such yummy desserts, everything is reasonably priced too--especially being in a casino. Because of this and many other reasons, the Eldorado Bakery will forever remain in my top spots for gourmet sweet treats. They even have gelato and a decent menu of different coffees. A good cup of Joe with a slice of cake is a good balance and definitely...

It's actually a coffee shop with baked confectioneries for sale as well. These are duplicates of the coffee shop at Silver Legacy (all owned by the same corporation). I used to come here very often. Some time between 2015 and 2020, the items changed. There used to be several types of cheesecake but now only one. There used to be an amazing New York style cheesecake with sour cream on top that contrasted the sugary goodness underneath, and it was thick and amazing, but now it's gone. The only one left is some generic apricot cheesecake.

I got the "German Chocolate" cake tonight, brought it home 5 minutes away to eat. Very dry and crumbly. Probably been sitting on the shelf for a while.

It's a Friday. The casino was packed. Lots of gamblers about, so I'm not sure why fresh baked goods weren't on hand. It simply is not what...

We went a little after midnight. We had slow service. We weren't acknowledged by anyone for close to 15 minutes after being seated. I was ready to leave and told my husband let's find somewhere else, and finally a waitress put two glasses of water on the table. Still no acknowledgement. Just set the glasses down and walked away. I wanted some hot food and dessert but by the time, anyone finally came to us (maybe another 5-10 minutes after the water), I was upset but still got the dessert which was peach pie. I don't know if they gave us sugar free pie or what, but it was very bitter. 2 slices of pie a la mode with 2 cups of cocoa cost us over $30. My husband and I won't...
