Great Basin Brewing Co. - Minden

Super suprised by this place! We were on our way to lake tahoe from socal and randomly stopped by for dinner. The detroit style pizza was delicious and the salad was good.

We ordered two burgers for $40.00 oh and two sodas. My cowboy burger was burnt but was OK. My friend got a mushroom burger she liked it . But , no fries with them . Thought they came with the burger . Then the one thing that really got me was the girl behind the counter? Kept touching her hair and flipping it back-and-forth, then touching money and receipts. Then, touching food without washing hand it was quite gross.

OPEC might be invading this place! First, staff was very friendly... no problem there. But, then the food came. Onion rings were soaked in oil. Bread of my Patty Melt... soaked in oil. (See pics) Patty Melt was not grandpa's 1950s dinner version. Miss the rye bread. Patty too small for the bread. Beef was tasty! Grilled onions were terribly done. Nice presentation. Sweet potato waffle chip tasty also. Look at the pics. You be the judge. Scratching this off my lunch list.

Some of the reviews that I have read are absolutely ridiculous. Complaining about not knowing which door to go into, there are multiple doors to go into which is awesome. I like restaurants where you go up and get your own food and when it's done you take it to your table. Or they bring it to you. We absolutely all loved everything we ordered! The boneless chicken wings were really great. Sweet potato fries were amazing and my husband got a really great pizza. Really fun environment, family oriented. Very friendly customer service. Definitely will be going back when we are in this town.

Amazing food and super friendly bartenders! The elk burger and sweet potato fries are among the best I’ve ever had, and the caprese burger tasted unique and surprisingly good. The graphic designs of their beer are very cool, and our favorite is the Icky IPA one based on the ichthyosaur (means fish lizard) the Nevada’s state fossil
