Nevada is full of delicious burgers that are worth going out of your way for, but few are as iconic as the Jiffy Burger. Served up at Reno’s most historic restaurant, the Little Waldorf Saloon, the world-famous Jiffy has definitely made a name for itself in the Battle Born State. It’s an item that every meat-lovin’ Nevadan should try at least once – at least so you can say you’ve officially tried the state’s most iconic burger! Plus, there’s always a good time to be had at the The Wal, no matter what you order.
Known as Reno's oldest dining establishment, the Little Waldorf Saloon has been serving up wholesome and hearty dishes since 1922. We think it's safe to say that the Wal is a true Nevada icon.
Located right across the street from UNR, the rustic restaurant has established itself as one of the city's most treasured watering holes. The Wal regularly features about 35 varieties of craft beer and even more premium spirits.
The drink selection is unmatched at this time-honored saloon, but the food is just as hype-worthy. Open every day for lunch and dinner, the restaurant prides itself in offering a variety of tasty fare from the grill and smoker, including a slew of delicious half-pound burgers.
In fact, these giant burgers are the restaurant's pride and joy, especially the World Famous Jiffy. Consisting of a hand-packed patty topped with pepper jack cheese, crisp bacon, and peanut butter (yes, really,) the burger is the perfect blend of savory, salty, and sweet. There's a reason it's famous!
The Fabulous Fry Bread is another menu item that you don't want to skip. The bread is essentially homemade pizza dough that's deep-fried and served with your choice of parmesan cheese or cinnamon sugar - it all depends on what flavor you're craving!
Also on the menu is a selection of mouthwatering Nevada barbecue, crisp salads, hand-made pizza, and every type of "Game Day" food imaginable. The Macho Nachos are another crowd favorite - tortilla chips smothered in cheese, guacamole, black beans, sour cream, and pico de gallo.
It only makes sense that the state's most iconic burger would be served up inside Reno's oldest restaurant. When you've got a burger craving that must be satiated, plan a visit (or a to-go order) at the world-famous Little Waldorf. See the restaurant's full menu on their website.
