Peg's Glorified Ham n Eggs - S Sierra St

This local diner was pleasantly satisfying and friendly inviting environment and the food was delicious as the wait times were not long and food was fresh coffee was great and refills were available very quickly. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a wholesome dining experience.

Very mediocre. I had high expectations for this place due to the reviews here and a friend recommendation. The food portions are large, but that is just about it. My main complaint was the pancakes. They were very chewy and a little bit rubbery. The chili relleno plate was impressively big but quite flavorless. The eggs and bacon were done right, but nothing more than Denny's quality. Tbe loco moco beef patty was tasty, but it was swimming in excess brown sauce. So overall, the food is like Denny's, but without Denny's prices. Service was fine, friendly if you're a local. The dining room was basic, much like an old 50s diner that hasn't been remodeled. Prices have been raised from what my friends have known from eating here about a year ago. Parking garge and street parking is nearby. The front entrance was messy with carts full of plates and salt and pepper shakers.

A Must-Visit Diner: Peg’s Glorified Ham and Eggs By Jorge Berlioz Nestled in the heart of Midtown Reno, Peg’s Glorified Ham and Eggs stands as a beacon of classic American diner culture. Stepping inside, you’re immediately immersed in a bustling yet harmonious environment where the staff works like a well-oiled machine—efficient, friendly, and fast. Martha, my server, epitomized this multitasking spirit, seamlessly juggling tasks while still offering top-notch service. The décor gives the diner an authentic feel, filled with a cozy, homey clutter that reminds you of the classic franchise diners of the past but without the sterile corporate touch. It feels lived-in, with walls adorned in a charming overload of nostalgic memorabilia, adding to the overall experience. I opted for their famous Glorified Ham and Eggs, and it didn’t disappoint. While I usually prefer my ham a little more cooked, Peg’s version was expertly done—tender and flavorful. The sunny-side-up eggs were perfectly cooked, the bacon crisp, and the hashbrowns were a real standout. It’s rare to find good hashbrowns in Reno these days, but Peg’s nailed it. I also ordered fries on the side, which were seasoned just right, adding a satisfying crunch to the meal. To wash it down, the iced tea was refreshingly crisp—simple, but perfect. Peg’s is more than just a diner; it’s a Reno institution. It offers a slice of eclectic Americana that’s becoming harder to find. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this spot is a must-visit for breakfast lovers. Its historical significance and prime location make it a quintessential part of the Reno dining scene. Peg’s serves not just food but a sense of place—one that captures the essence of the city itself. Delicious, welcoming, and distinctly local, this diner has stood the test of time for all the right reasons.

Holy Moly!!! This was the best decision we made for breakfast. The retro dinner vibe was awesome and the food, well the food was fantastic. Our server Crystal shared her favorites and we were sold. We had the Monte Cristo and the Huevos Rancheros and they were AMAZING!! Highly recommend Pegs!

We had a short wait to get in, but definitely worth it. Large menu to choose from & difficult to make a decision. We chose hamburger steak & eggs and pork chops & eggs. I had plenty left over for later. The service was good. The waitresses were really hustling.

Visiting Reno with family. Love Hawaii breakfast as much as Mexican. This place had both. Large portions. Great service. Short wait.

Breakfast was excellent, I had meat lovers scramble, and my wife had the burrito. Very large portions for the prices. We were able to eat half and take the other half for the next day. The stuff is very friendly and the service was very quick.

I had the Loco Moco at Peg’s and it was absolutely delicious! The portions are huge, perfect for anyone with a big appetite. The old-fashioned diner atmosphere adds to the charm, making it a great spot for a classic, hearty breakfast. Highly recommend if you're looking for a no-frills, satisfying meal in Reno!

It's janurary 31 2025 . My name is Calvin miles . I had breakfast at pegs glorified cafe . The service was great and the food was excellent . I think that's all I need to say about that place . Off of south meadows pk way .

Best Monte Cristo in the world. I went with my friend Chris, but I refer to him as Monty. So I with Monty (Chris), I ordered the Monte Cristo. I'm not really sure if this dish exists anywhere else, but darn it is good and has everything you need: Protein, French toast, sugar! Will I get a Monte Cristo every time I visit pegs with Monty (Chris), yo?! You know! That's thang is better than deal or no deal island. 5-stars for pegs glorified ham-n-eggs

Reviews didn't lie. Huevos Rancheros were amazing. My girlfriend ordered these even after I told her not too. We live in an area with some of the best Mexicans restaurants in the world so why get something you can have local but boy was I wrong! These were amazing . They had a vinegar dressing on cabbage and it was amazing. So served with a pico type salad con jalapeños that was a great compliment to the eggs I had the Portuguese sausage. Came with unlimited toast. Total price was about $65 for a bit pricey but anything worth while usually is.

Experience was just okay [Reno NV] We strolled in a little after 10:00a... the restaurant wasn't as busy (yet). We were welcomed immediately by more than one employee and were led to our booth table. Crystal was our friendly server. She gave us time to look over the menu while she went and got our drinks (2 cups of coffee and a glass of OJ). She came back and took our orders: Denver Omelette + white toast Pork Chops and Eggs (over medium) + white toast Fried Spam (eggs over easy) She took our orders w/o writing anything down, pure memory... impressive! and when our food was served everything was correct, albeit it took awhile. But what was more impressive was when she took the orders from a party of 7 by memory. Anyway, my pork chop order was good. It was a large portion and I enjoyed it. Mom seemed to have enjoyed her omelette as well. Unfortunately, the Spam on my hubby's order was overcooked and was tough and I could tell he wasn't really liking it. He didn't finish his food. Service was good in the beginning but everything took awhile after that especially as the restaurant got busier which was why he decided not to send it back to the kitchen. It took awhile for -- another order of toast, to go boxes, the check. We wanted to split the bill by paying with two credit cards but it needed a manager's authorization to process this... so, we thought she'd call her manager but when we asked about it we got a little attitude. Well, we waited long enough and just paid with one CC so we could go on our merry way. Food is a bit on the pricey side. Review #3641

Frequent customer here. Peg's is a local's favorite. It's my favorite breakfast place in Reno. The restaurant itself is hidden alongside some office buildings, but the food's great, and the staff are amazing. At this location, peak hours are early in the morning, and wait times can be 20-30 minutes. However, if you either come early or arrive near noon, you usually get a table right away. I always either order the Loco Moco or some of their egg Benedict options. You cannot go wrong with either - all are rich in flavor and have good portions. The Loco Moco actually has an insane portion size so you might need to take some leftovers.

This place did not disappoint! Food was delicious, exactly what we needed before hitting the road! Ambiance was nostalgic Our server was very kind and welcoming. New "must" go to every Reno trip

This brunch spot was recommended to us by a local. The parking garage next door is awkwardly laid out and hard to navigate so find street parking if you can. We started with coffee. Served hot and refilled often, like a good diner should! We had Eggs Benedict and it was cooked perfectly! Comes with a huge serving of hash browns! We would definitely come back when we're in Reno!

There is no better way to start the day with a good breakfast. Wow, how full this place was! Despite that, they assigned us a table immediately. Our waitress arrived immediately to which we had to ask her to give us a few more minutes to analyze the menu well. My partner had a craving for pancakes so I'm sure that was going to be in our order. We ordered Peglet Omelette with ham, peg's glorified gravy biscuit benedicts and 1 pc pancake. After we ordered I asked my partner why if she had a craving for pancakes she had only ordered 1 and she told me that because when entering the Restaurant she had seen someone from a table with a huge pancake and that was going to be a lot for her and she was right, food arrive and OMG that pancake was tremendous. We definitely loved it, the food was delicious, the portions are huge and the treatment of the staff is very friendly. The environment was very busy and very noisy since everyone was talking and I know that the cold has already started but it was very hot inside. Thank you Peg's for our bomb ass breakfast

One of our go-to brunch spots. This location has a large dining room and is staffed to serve a full house. We've never had a long wait here even when coming during peak weekend hours or holidays. The Loco Moco is my favorite menu item and seems to be their most popular. Anything we've ordered on their skillet menu has also been good. Expect a large portion! Prices are fair. The staff is friendly and attentive.

Solid breakfast with unlimited coffee but the biggest surprise was the unlimited toast! I sat at the counter to avoid the brunch rush! Fairly priced with generous portions. Service was excellent! A special thanks to Tara thanks for keeping my coffee hot/ full

Cannot beat this place for breakfast. Food quality is top notch. Service is spot on. Good times.

Per the website, Peg's Glorified Ham 'n Eggs has four locations in Reno; one in Sparks; and one in Carson City. This Downtown Reno location is an unpretentious breakfast diner imbedded within the ground level of a public parking garage. The decor is pretty basic. The store is open for breakfast and brunch. The bulk of the menu is dedicated to breakfast food. Looking around at the plates served to other diners, I could see that the portions were generous. So, when I ordered my Denver Omelet, I asked the waitress not to serve the hash browns that came with the meal set. It would have been too much food. The meals here are hearty, taste good; and portions are generous for the price paid. (Much better taste and value, if compared to that that national brand diner whose name begins with the letter "D".) Business appears brisk weekend mornings. If you are staying within "The Row", this restaurant is within walking distance for most, and easy to locate.

Food was amazingly good,but the wait was crazy I walked in at 9:30 and got my food and 10:50 it the wait was crazy and the bathrooms are dirty the butter packets were stuck together with syrup. Really mid

We are from Miami Florida and found this place. All the reviews says this place has amazing food. Well they are absolutely right. Highly recommend this place. I will definitely be back when I come to visit.

I loved everything about Peg's and I'd give it a 10 if I could! This is a cozy little spot in Reno, and it was just beginning to hop when we arrived. We were greeted by a worker before even entering, and we were immediately welcomed as we walked in the door. We were immediately seated, and while there were people all around, it didn't feel like your space was being invaded. Emily was almost immediately at our table with coffee and to take our order. We also ordered an OJ which is listed on the menu for $6.99 btw and worth every penny! After perusing the diverse menu, I decided to go with the corned beef hash with scrambled eggs which I enjoyed. Be prepared. No matter what you order, the portion sizes are HUGE. Someone next to us ordered the Huevo Rancheros and the entree came in a skillet the size of a medium pizza. I also noticed a diner who ordered biscuits and gravy. The biscuits are the size of cinnamon rolls. If you leave hungry, you did it wrong at Peg's. The ambiance is modern and cozy. The service is outstanding! The food is really good. I enjoyed the entire experience and would not hesitate to return here for another spectacular breakfast next time I happen to be in Reno.

The steak and eggs are one of my favorites it was the best because it was salty enough you should try it

Peg's Glorified Ham N Eggs is an old school diner that runs on chaos. From hostess to waitress (& even owners?), the staff here are frantic. To make matters worse, there's zero air circulation inside; we opted to wait for an outdoor table despite warnings of high-ish winds rather than endure the steamy indoor seating. (Except for one insane dust storm, the elements, thankfully, weren't brutal to us.) After this first impression, which could only be described as a circus, my party was understandably skeptical about this spot, however our first bites calmed everyone's nerves. The food was well seasoned, hearty, & homemade in the best way possible. Someone knows their way around a grill top! The extensive menu has an interesting mix of American, Hawaiian, & Mexican dishes. We ordered a good variety from the Hawaiian Breakfast to Chef George's Eggs Benedict made with chorizo patties. The Monte Cristo was a crowd fave, & I was happy as a clam with my more traditional (aka basic bish) Build Your Own Omelette of avocado, cheddar/jack cheese blend, onions, & mushrooms. Crispy hash browns & buttered rye toast were delicious carby complements. No dish over $20; service, once we were finally situated, was efficient & friendly enough. Despite being pleasantly surprised with these positives, I'll choose to eat breakfast elsewhere next time I'm in town to avoid the stress that comes with dining at Peg's.

Long story short, go try. Very busy at brunch time, waitresses were flying around, still very attentive. Bustling with busy morning vibes with a lot of fresh cooking sounds from the kitchen. Wife tried salmon bennedict and i got the cali bennedict. We were so full but it was too good we finished it ALLLLLL. One of the best breakfast spots we've tried. 12/10 recommend!

Yummy food,big portions I couldn't finish it all but definitely will be back again Service was friendly

Every time I visit Reno, Peg's is one of my favorite go to spots. The staff is always cheerful and you are promptly seated, there's also a good amount of seating inside and outside. Peg's definitely has a diner feel, that's very family friendly. I got the pancakes and Hawaiian breakfast plate. The pancakes are huge, but the real star is the Portuguese sausage. I love the sausage with rice, it's the right amount of snap. I will definitely be back again!

Great food , friendly service. My eggs Benedict were made perfectly . Definitely recommend them

We were searching for an early morning diner to get our breakfast fix, this place came up as a highly recommended option! The staff were very welcoming and accommodating, the ambiance was comfortable and quick as we were seated and had drinks right away. People seemed happy to be there, and left us with a smile. Food was solid, classic diner food, just what we needed for a good meal to start the day on. I'd recommend it if you're in the area!

Breakfast was delicious! The service was great. We are so glad we found this spot while we were in Reno. The waitress was so attentive. I have a dairy allergy and she answered my questions and checked with the kitchen to make sure my order didn't have any milk or butter in it. The macaroni salad that comes with my breakfast is made with ranch dressing, so they left that off my plate. Also she wasn't sure about the ingredients in the bread so we skipped it. Thanks to the kitchen also for being clear about ingredients so that there were no problems. Our waitress made sure that we were well taken care of and the food was so good. I didn't feel like anything was missing. I had the Hawaiian breakfast with teriyaki chicken and rice. Yum yum yum! My husband had the fresh salmon Benedict. It was better than his favorite salmon Bene at the restaurant we go to back home.

Fantastic home style diner located near the center of Reno! Stopped by on our way out for breakfast and loved the food, service, and speed! Everything was excellent (especially the banana foster!) and I appreciated the waiter checking in frequently and topping off our coffee and waters. Overall, I'd highly recommend this spot if you're looking for a good old fashioned diner while you're in town!

For a scrumptious breakfast in mid-town, Peg's is the place! I ordered the fresh salmon benedict which was amazing! English muffin high with thick salmon and perfectly poached eggs with delicious hollandaise and a generous side of hash browns. Enjoyed freshly squeezed orange juice filled to the rim and hot bold coffee. Popular local place a short walk to the river for a nice stroll on the banks afterwards. Friendly service. I will be back!

First timer here... FOOD is great!!! The server Krystal is nice. Place is neat and clean..

Hello! First time here, friendly folks, great and quick service. Parking on the street or structure if available. Tried the Loco Moco $8.99 and it was a large plate, decent amount of food, but it tasted like one hamburger patty drenched over brown gravy. The Loco Moco was not up to par, but the scramble eggs and macaroni was good. This dish was mediocre. Next, the Eggs Benedict $10.99 was better, fresh, tasteful, and spot on with the eggs and yolk pouring out once sliced. delicious, and I do recommend this dish (don't for get the hot sauce). If you're looking for a quick breakfast fix, check this spot out.

I nd 3 others will never go back. 4 people never going there again won't hurt them but it will help another restaurant. 2 bisquits NO GRAVY almost 10 $....went last wk got 2 eggs 2 bacon 2 bisquits with gravy nd a coffee almost 30$. CRACKER BOX WAY BETTER....RED HUT WAY BETTER!!! Plus an enjoyable atmosphere. At pegs we did not get not get home vibe, nice environment. Actually was a big cold box to sit in NEVER EVER WILL WE GO BACK. Only hit 1 star because I had to so I could post

Great spot for some classic breakfast. The place is usual busy, but I never had to wait. The service is nice and quick, so you are in and out. The pancakes and waffles are delicious. They have a good size menu, but my favorite is the Aloha section. You can get the hawaiian breakfast. It's served with eggs, rice, mac salad, spam, and Portuguese sausage, which is delicious. This meal is a real treat! With so many great options, everything I have had at Peg's is very satisfying. Omelettes, skillets, and anything with eggs. If you are a breakfast lover, you gotta eat at Peg's.

Food and service was good just now worth the price in my opinion was quite expensive for what it is!!

It took us to go to Reno to try this place! LOL. I really love this place! Very nice ambiance with friendly servers. They even gave my service dog water to drink. The food was so good as well. Everything is so good in this place. Definitely, i will try their location here in Las Vegas which is my hometown. Highly recommended!

We come here whenever in the area and it's been a while since I last posted about the place. As always the service is awesome. This is one of the the many reasons why I come back every time. They are so happy and welcoming! I had to get my usual order of their homemade hash plate with eggs, rice and toast. Hubby got the bacon, eggs and rice with a huge pancake to share. We got coffee which was kept refilled for our entire meal and our server she frequently checked in on us and was so easy to chat with. I have to say their hash is one of the best I have ever tasted anywhere as that's my go to order for breakfast anytime I am out. Hubby loved his food too. Please come to this place next time you are in town or around.

An amazing and wonderful breakfast experience. The food was delicious, the service was over the top, the atmosphere was fun and uplifting. If you haven't tried it, you're missing out.

Food: the portions are gigantic so I advise sharing. We absolutely loved each of our dishes and wished we could've finished it all! We enjoyed the denver omelette, chicken fried steak, short stack pancakes with strawberries, 2 eggs, bacon, and unlimited coffee. Service: the other notably great aspect of this restaurant is their quick and friendly service. I can't remember her name, but the blonde hostess with the mostest/ serviced had such an inviting personality and she gave us honest and great food recommendations. Ambiance: the restaurant is located off a side street and could easily be passed up from the looks of the outside but it's a gem. The interior is classic American diner with local art displayed for purchase on the wall.

Old school Dinner. Food was good. Very busy. Show up early if in a bigger group. Lots of history in the photos displayed along the walls. Service was good. Coffee cup definitely never empty.

My friend and I attended mass at the Cathedral downtown and wanted to grab brunch somewhere close by. We came to Peg's on a Sunday at 12:45pm, they were busy but we still got seated right away! They have a large menu with basically every brunch option you could want. I like getting brunch items that I don't typically make at home, so I went with the Chef George's Benedict! Not your classic Benedict--this one had chorizo and chipotle hollandaise! It was delicious, I loved the slight level of spice and unique sauce. It came with a huge serving of hashbrowns too! My friend got the corned beef and hash, he said it was really good and was made better than other brunch spots in the area where he has ordered the same thing. Serving sizes are large, prices are affordable, and staff were friendly! Service was good, we both had coffees which were refilled numerous times and we didn't have to wait long for anything. Even the food came out quickly which I was impressed by on a Sunday during brunch hours. I love supporting a family-owned business that has been around for years, I'm glad this place has a long tradition yet still keeps up with great service and providing a five star experience!

One of our reg favs. Foods great! Have the banana fosters waffle! It's desert! The people are so friendly and it's pretty chill!

Is this really the best breakfast that Reno has to offer? One might think so, considering how busy the place was on a Sunday morning. I don't have a problem waiting for a table or waiting for food, but when your wait time is damn near an hour, and you see another couple seated after you get their food first, it's a problem! I asked one of the servers running around (who was very sweet and helpful with seating us and refilling coffee) if she could check on our food. She already knew we had been waiting too long, because she said she had just checked back there (in the kitchen) and didn't see our ticket. We hadn't seen our own server in awhile. I could only assume our ticket order was lost and they were just making it right then. Seriously, by the time we got our food, with barely an apology, no explanation of why it took so long, and no offer of a discount, every table around us that were seated way after us, were getting their food! I was irritated. The wait is not worth it! The food was fine, okay, average, however you want to rate it, but I wasn't impressed, especially from an old school diner with no working A/C on a hot Labor Day weekend. The glorification was real, and I won't be returning.

First time coming here and it's officially my go to breakfast spot in Reno now. It was so good and quick, our server was friendly and we were able to get in quick and get out quickly, which was our plan. Portion was quite big and had great prices with a variety of different plates to choose from. My partner got fried spam and eggs and loved it. I loved the vibe of the place from the minute I walked in and knew it was going to be BOMB. Our serves name was Carolina and she really was so attentive and nice. Definitely recommend checking this place out for breakfast.

I've had this place saved in my phone as a place to go to for a few years now.   We finally got to go.   Parking is a little tough. There's limited street parking.  I had gone in to place my to go order while my husband looked for parking.     Upon entering,  this place is decorated typical diner style. Random pictures and posters.  It's definitely been around a while.   It's shown some wear and random clutter. I came shortly after them opening, and they were pretty busy already.  There was one guy taking the order on a huge yellow notepad and one cook.  The guy taking my order was super nice.  I placed my order and just observed the area.   The cook seemed like he had burned some things, and I was afraid it was our order.     We ordered; 1.  Loco moco - I was skeptical of this, but I figured I'd give it a try.   The patty was cooked perfectly, and the gravy was delicious. The mac salad was basic, nothing special. I mostly ate the rice and patty 2.  Corn beef hash - This is my typical safe go-to as a backup.   He even asked me if I was ok with peppers on it.   Which let me believe it was made fresh in-house.  It was amazing with the fluffy cooked scrambled eggs, I didn't need anything else. 3.  Breakfast sandwich with bacon and sausage - This was ginormous.  It was cheesy, and the way the egg just dripped down the middle, it was heaven. 4.  French toast - This was crispy and sweet.  You didn't even need syrup.     Overall, the experience wasn't bad, and the food was tasty.   I will definitely be back the next time we are in the area.

Great service! Great food, had a really good dining experience. Fast paced family owned and operated and really comfy and homey. Awesome diner I will return to next time in Reno!!

First visit was a win. This place was super busy, kinda small restaurant with close seating to other guest but doesn't feel too cramped. They have coupled bench and chair seating and booth seating. Menu has lots for everyone but mainly breakfast type items and such a diverse offering. Food was excellent, portions were HUGE, make sure you bring your appetite, service was fast and the server was attentive and nice, actually all the staff were super friendly. Next time we are in town this place we be one of our go to's.

Nicely nestled away in downtown Reno. The servers immediately greeted and seated us as we walked in and had water to our table within couple of minutes. Coffee was nice and hot. Service was quick both gals were extremely pleasant and provided excellent customer service. My husband and I both ordered French tost banana fosters style. It was so good (I would have taken a picture if we went so hungry). I had a side of eggs and bacon. Eggs were yummy as was the bacon, nice thick and crispy. Overall great experience and we will be back.

Was in town in Reno and wanted a place for breakfast. This place caught my attention as it had quite the exciting menu. Went with the hash corned beef. I must say it may have been the best hash corned beef I have tasted especially with all the ingredients that came with it. The hash browns were perfectly crisp and flavorful. Had a side of pancakes and it paired nicely. Along with the good food came the great service. The young waitress that assisted me that day was very attentive and made my experience very enjoyable. Will have it mind to back to try other items.

Lovely diner - I came around 6:30am. I almost thought they were closed since it looked dark but noticed there were already some patrons inside. My waitress Carolina was very sweet and attentive to all of the customers eating inside. She always ensured our coffees were filled! I ordered the loco moco because I can't resist a Hawaiian breakfast! I also got a side of spam (2 pieces) and fruit cup. It was a crazy amount of food! I couldn't finish it all but did get to eat a bit of everything. The loco moco was big and the brown gravy was comforting. The spam is deep fried so it was crispy all around and warm inside. They're definitely bigger pieces - I wish I had gotten just one piece. Mac salad was alright - I can't say I have strong opinions on Mac salad but this one was a little looser than others I've had (which was fine with me). Definitely a classic diner but also some fun offerings - good for a no-frills and hearty breakfast!

We come here every trip we make out to Reno. What might seem like you're going to wait a long time, it goes by quick. The food is excellent. I order something g new every time. Ant wait to go back!

We've been coming here for years while visiting Reno, and it is still excellent! Service is always friendly and efficient! Coffee and waters were never empty. I almost always order the huevos rancheros which is served on a large skillet with crispy hash browns, eggs your way, pinto beans & cheese, slaw, cowboy salsa, and slice of fruit. Flour tortillas by request! The food is consistently fantastic! My hubs ordered the ham steak and eggs, which he thoroughly enjoyed as well.

I highly recommend this breakfast dinner! The food here is super tasty and large portion sizes as well. The service is on top of it and we were well taken of. The hawaiian influence makes for some super delicious menu items!

Great local place! People working there were professional and helpful. The food was a delicious and plentiful and the ambiance was "breakfast joint," which is what we were there for. If this is what you're looking for, give them a shot, I think you'll like it.
