What makes 5 Star Saloon special
The 5 Star is the central gay bar in downtown Reno. During the week it’s a bar with karaoke and drink deals, and on Fridays and Saturdays it becomes a dance club. Drag and live music take the stage. Reviews are mixed, but the location between the casinos is handy.
A good fit if you …
- want to dance at the weekend
- are out centrally downtown
Not ideal if you …
- are looking for a quiet cocktail bar
