CV Steak

CV Steak inside the Carson Valley Inn and Casino is touted as a Nevada-style steakhouse, meaning that it serves great meat in an elegant-yet-casual Western atmosphere. The CV Steak Bar opens before the restaurant starts serving food, so come for a libation before dining. They offer a kids' menu and an early-dining menu as well as specialty martinis, desserts, after-dinner drinks and an impressive wine list. It's not difficult to see why reservations are recommended. Recessed areas above each booth showcase black and white photos that recount the history of Minden and Gardnerville. The photos are a perfect complement to the arts and crafts motif that ties all elements of Carson Valley Inn.
