Welcome to the Around Carson Dining Guide, and thanks for sticking around even though it's a little bit empty here. This is the beginnings of what hopefully will become an in-depth resource listing all, or most, or the restaurants in Carson City, Minden, Gardnerville, and the surrounding areas. We'll have photos, addresses, telephone numbers, maps, menus, and reader reviews for each restaurant, all meant to help you when you're asking that important question, "What's for dinner?"

Watch this space for more restaurants to be added, or drop an e-mail to contribute@aroundcarson.com if you want to help out with gathering photographs and menus!
