Permit filed for iconic hotdog chain inside a Reno Walmart

A permit confirms which Reno Walmart will be getting a new Wienerschnitzel quick-serve restaurant.

An iconic hotdog chain is one step closer to its Reno comeback after filing a permit for a spot inside a Walmart.

A building permit was filed Monday, Oct. 20, for a Wienerschnitzel quick-serve restaurant at the Walmart on Kietzke Lane. The tenant improvement permit for a commercial remodel and addition to the store is under review.

The permit comes nine months after the longstanding Wienerschnitzel on Mill Street closed in January. It was subjected to an eminent domain claim for a road widening project by the Regional Transportation Commission.

In May, the company said it was returning to Reno with a location inside a Reno Walmart, but declined to say which one. The recently filed permit confirms the new Wienerschnitzel will be at the Walmart on 4855 Kietzke Lane.

Wienerschnitzel in Reno is part of push by hotdog chain to go inside Walmart stores

The Reno location is one of six Walmarts in the United States to get a Wienerschnitzel, according to the company. The locations are:

Reno, Nevada
Bakersfield, California
Tempe, Arizona
Colorado Springs, Colorado
Puyallup, Washington
Alamogordo, New Mexico

The new locations will serve the full Wienerschnitzel menu, including chili cheese dogs, corn dogs, chili cheese fries, jalapeño poppers and soft-serve desserts.
