For many years, Carson City’s fame came from being the country’s smallest capital.Though it’s outgrown that title, the city has found new fame as Northern Nevada’s Top Culinary Spot.And since a sizeable number of its new residents were originally from other countries, many of the restaurants have a decidedly foreign flavor.

Whereas the most talked about restaurants in Nevada’s largest metro areas – Las Vegas, Henderson and Reno – are in its casinos, most of Carson City’s finest eateries are stand-alones. They are located on Carson Street, the city’s main thoroughfare, side-streets and shopping centers.
