Overview & Highlights

Situated in the heart of New Washoe City, Sand & Sage Grill is a welcoming bar & grill that perfectly blends laid-back atmosphere with satisfying comfort food. This unpretentious spot is a beloved local dive bar where friendly faces and a warm vibe make it more than just a place to eat—it’s a genuine community hub.

Their menu offers a tempting variety of classic bar fare, crafted to hit the spot whether you're craving crispy, golden appetizers or hearty, flavorful sandwiches. Start your taste journey with the crunchy Fried Zucchini or the delightfully gooey Mozzarella Sticks, each bite bursting with just the right balance of seasoning and crispness. For those seeking a bit of spice, the Cajun Fries or Cajun Tots deliver a punchy, smoky kick that pairs perfectly with an ice-cold beer.

The sandwich selection showcases an array of mouthwatering options. The French Dip, although humble, is a comforting classic paired with well-seasoned tots. The Philly Cheese Steak and Jailbird offer robust, savory layers of meat and melted cheese that feel both indulgent and satisfying. For burger lovers, the Western Bacon Cheeseburger and Mushroom Cheeseburger come loaded with rich flavors that linger long after the last bite.

Anybody who really knows me well knows that I cant stay away from a good dive bar!! The "divier" the better!! This little place tucked away in Washoe valley didn't disappoint. I ordered the French dip sandwich. It wasn't the best I'd ever had for sure. It was on the small side, fairly plain and pedestrian. It came with tots which were good. My partner ordered the mushroom burger and I had a bite. Oh Boy! That was a good burger. Juicy! Flavorful! Decent sized burger was served up hot on a nice bun alongside some crispy tots, it was well received. They have a good selection of beers/seltzers Met Sheryl the owner and she was nice as pie. We will definitely come back to this little divey gem and enjoy its cool little vibe.

Greetings everyone!! Although it has been a while since I've been able too enjoy a tasty burger followed with wonderful beverages I'd like too say hello too everyone it's me Kenny's cousin corey ,,well I miss you all & hope you all are having a wonderful time ,,enjoy your day miss you all!!!
