10 BEST STEAKHOUSE RESTAURANTS LAS VEGAS 2021
Hello everyone and welcome back to The Luxury! Are you a steak lover?
From old-fashioned meat joints sporting red leather booths to modern chophouses that serve
globally-inspired fare, these steakhouses that have made the cut all have one thing
in common: great steak. So make sure you stick till the end to find
our top 1!
Number 10 Jean-Georges Steakhouse
Jean-Georges Vongerichten actually has another steakhouse in Las Vegas but his restaurant
at Aria is an experience. A highlight here is the tableside carvery, which includes a
smoked Wagyu brisket, a 42-ounce Wagyu tomahawk, and a 36-ounce porterhouse. If you want some
meat with your meat, go for the Japanese Wagyu carpaccio. Otherwise, order one of the seafood
starters like the crispy sushi sampler or the tuna tartare. You can also get real A5
Kobe beef from Japan in three different sizes and served with sides such as king crab legs,
bone marrow, and foie gras. Pro tip: Don’t eat too much of the bread basket.
Number 9 Bazaar Meat by José Andrés
The Bazaar meat, owned by Jose Andre, serves A5 Japanese Wagyu. A fun fact about this dish
is that details like the ranch on which the beef was raised is listed on their menu. This
is to show you how precisely the domestic beef was sourced. The steakhouse also offers
a variety of dishes such as tartare, carpaccios, steak, pork, lamb, and cured meats. Before
your main dish, you can enjoy starters like a raw bar, oysters or caviar flight. Enjoy
yourself as you dig your teeth into some glorious dishes like the roasted Jidori chicken, New
Zealand rack of lamb, Chateaubriand, and Butifarra Spiral alongside some Catalan-style pork sausage.
Number 8 CUT by Wolfgang Puck
CUT is a true Vegas steakhouse: sleek with a modern metallic design, a silver and white
color palette, and mirrored walls. (It's the second branch of the Wolfgang Puck classic
that originated in Beverly Hills.) There are more than 500 wines on the menu that a skilled
sommelier will talk you through. And then there's the cut itself: Japanese Wagyu is
clearly the star, but there’s also American Wagyu, a petite filet from Tasmania, and several
dry-aged steaks, all grilled over a hard wood and charcoal fire and finished in a 1,200-degree
broiler.
Number 7 Bavettes, Las Vegas
Apart from the steaks, which are the main reason you’re in the steakhouse, you should
also try out the Baked goat cheese, shrimp cocktail or steak tartare at the Bavette’s
steakhouse. These are meals that will get your taste buds dancing. There are also entrees
like chicken, pork chops, lamb chops and salmon. You can get the unusual bone-in filet. The
Bavette's Steakhouse has a beautiful setting that you will enjoy as you eat and drink.
When you’re thinking of steakhouses in Vegas, don’t forget the name – Bavette’s Steakhouse
& Bar.
Number 6 Andiamo Italian Steakhouse
If you’re a big fan of hand-prepared ingredients, you should visit the Andiamo Steakhouse. From
the warm homemade bread to the fresh ingredients, everything at this steakhouse is served with
much care. The steakhouse offers a romantic seating area where you and your partner can
enjoy their American prime steak served with Italian seasoning. Andiamo’s is located
downtown Las Vegas on Fremont street. It is an elegant little steakhouse that will amaze
you right from the entrance all the way in.
Number 5 STRIPSTEAK
STRIPSTEAK doesn’t have much curb appeal—it’s located at the start of the mall off the casino
floor of Mandalay Bay. (Your best view is probably looking in at the other diners.)
But what the restaurant lacks in style, it more than makes for it with the food. Chef
Michael Mina has put together a modern steakhouse menu that is, simply put, so, so tasty. If
you’re in the mood for some comfort food, you'll be sitting here. The meats are all
prepared on a wood-burning grill and run the gamut from a 40-ounce Australian Wagyu Tomahawk
to a simple 8-ounce filet.
Number 4 Craftsteak
Craftsteak, the better known of Tom Colicchio's Las Vegas steakhouses (he also has Heritage
at The Mirage) has a notable focus on sustainability using ingredients from family farms, artisanal
producers, and day-boat fishermen. Start off with the warm frisée salad or creamy lobster
bisque before moving onto one of the steak selections. Some of the standouts? A 24-hour
braised short rib, an 18-ounce rib-eye, A5 Japanese Wagyu, and a 40-ounce, 30-day dry-aged
eye of rib (if it’s available). The sides are stars in their own right here, including
the shrimp and grits with parmesan, the asparagus with lemon zest, and the heirloom cauliflower
with garlic confit. For dessert, it’s all about the cinnamon brioche monkey bread topped
with vanilla bean ice cream.
Number 3 STK
At STK it can sometimes feel as if you’re in a nightclub that just happens to serve
food. The place prides itself on being “not your daddy’s steakhouse”—that’s apparent
the moment you walk in and hear a DJ. The food, though, lightens up steakhouse classics.
There’s the classic iceberg wedge salad yes, but also a kale salad, and a chopped
vegetable salad. The raw bar has caviar and oysters as well as ceviche and yellowtail
crudo. And on the steak side, you can opt for a totally reasonable (in the world of
40-ounce tomahawk steaks) 6-ounce medallion.
Number 2 SW Steakhouse
This steakhouse serves properly charred steaks and amazing cuts like Bone-In RibEye, New
York Strip, Filet Mignon, Bone-In New York, and a 30-ounce Tomahawk chop. You could also
order for their Pepper Crusted Chateaubriand. SW is a steakhouse that cannot disappoint
you. They have an extensive menu with dishes like scallops, salmon and chicken, as well
as vegetarian selections. You can add tasty sides such as Maine Lobster Tail or smoked
bacon to your meal.
Number 1 Golden Steer Steakhouse
The Golden Steer Steakhouse has been serving awesome steak from as far back as 1958. It
provides you with the experience of eating the best steak in a Vintage Vegas atmosphere.
Celebrities like Elvis Presley, Sammy Davis Jr., Frank Sinatra, and Dean Martin have been
guests in this classic steakhouse. After trying out your choice from the standard cuts and
sizes of prime rib, remember to have a taste of their well renowned Caesar Salad. As a
traditional Vegas Steakhouse, the Golden steer offers dishes prepared and served in a classic
style. You should consider having a taste of their escargots, Oyster Rockefeller and
seafood mushroom caps. To sum it all up, you can be sure of having a great time at the
Golden steakhouse.
