Bonanza Casino is located north of Reno’s downtown area, at 4720 North Virginia Street. The casino was established in 1973 and has remained one of the smaller casinos both in Reno and in the state of Nevada. Bonanza Casino offers banquet rooms for special events and two gourmet restaurants. The casino has an Old West theme and has some low denomination table games you won’t find anywhere else. This old gambling hall offers a few events throughout the year, such as holiday specials and slot tournaments. If you are looking for an off-the-beaten-track casino in Reno, this would be your top choice.
