Good Steakhouse Las Vegas ?

[pc100porsche]

OK guys my gf has to take a bunch of corporate people to Vegas on a company incentive and wants a good steakhouse for one evening meal ... not necessarily the most expensive ---- all opinions are very much appreciated.

paging Tabs...

well I went to Alize at the top of palms hotel, best ever.......... service food and view.....

[jriera]

N9NE at the Palms is not half bad

Carnevino at the Palazzo

Personally I will stay with a Brazilian rodizio .. but I'm a sucker for the appetizer buffet they have.

Hugo's Cellar in the 4 Queens. Great food, great wine list and nice ambiance once you get past the tired old Queens as you transition to the Cellar.
Of course there's also Morton's.
A little more event like try Kokomo's at the Mirage.

I have been going to Vegas for 30+ years for conventions & we entertain a lot. Everything listed below will give you a good slab of meat. My list (in order of preference within the category):

Glitzy casino with prices to match
Stacks (very noisy but very, very good) - Mirage
Charlie Palmer (understated elegance but not quite as good as 5 years ago) – Four Seasons
SW (serious attitude from maître d about length of wait time caused me to do my infamous countdown at his desk - you had to be there to understand the scene I caused - but I would never go back) - Wynn

Old school (very, very tired casinos but a good feed with no surprises)
The Steakhouse (very simple menu but very consistent year after year) – Circus Circus (I would go back without hesitation)
Binion's Steakhouse (very consistent)
Hugo’s Cellar (not memorable) - 4 Queens

Better casino but still old school experience
Vic & Anthony’s (good food, tight seating) - Golden Nugget

Off Strip
Del Frisco’s (better than Morton’s in every way)
Morton’s (very noisy)

Kraft Steak at the MGM, excellent but pricey!

+1 for Vic and Anthony's!! This would be my choice!

Enjoy!

Oh and lesson learned in Vegas......if you want to be seated on time, a little tip to the Maître d will go a long way!

I refuse to play that game in Vegas or anywhere else. So . . . they either seat me promptly or I get insistent/ballistic while I am there & later I slam them on Trip Advisor. And they NEVER get a 2nd chance to abuse me again. I am the customer!

I understand, but how is it any different than tipping the waiter or a valet? And I highly recommend not going to Joe's in Caesar's Palace then! The only way you will get seated is with a tip.

the steakhouse in the Hard Rock is pretty good ,, name escapes me but I think it's 51 ? anyway it's the same as the number of days the steak has been aged..

[scottmandue]

Anyone try the "Golden steer" on west Sahara?

Drove by there a couple times and looks very old school hole in the wall... just the type of place I like.

[Hugh R]

Tabs took me to Jerry's Nugget, a little past Old Town on the strip. Very good and inexpensive for prime rib, save room for their pie!

Oh, just noticed, taking Corporate folks. Jerry't is a local older place.

[Moses]

Expensive... But SW has been among the finest dining experiences ever. I've always had reservations. Always had great service and amazing food.

[kinein]

The bistro at encore is pretty good also

BTDT. With a party of 10 or so during CES a few years back. I remember it well. It pretty much sucked. At least SW had really good food (iffy sides though & the wine list was obscene).

During major shows in Vegas, almost every restaurant's quality & service plummets. I could tell you many stories.

I think the current issue of Los Angeles magazine has an article about Las Vegas. One of the ladies interviewed lists it as her favorite steakhouse in Vegas.

I actually found the steakhouse in Ceasar's (called Nero, IIRC) to be really, really good. Maybe I just lucky, but that was one of the best steaks in my entire life. Better than what I had at N9NE.

The Golden Steer is one of my favorite steakhouses anywhere. If you can get past the shady area, it really is amazing with great ambiance. Most booth's have something like "Sinatra's Booth" on them with a picture of Sinatra at that exact booth...pretty cool!

The twice baked potatoes are the size of a bowling ball so if you're with someone, just get one!

There's an Irish steakhouse down in New York New York that is excellent...can't remember the name, though

Another vote for SW. Been there several times and never a bad experience. Make reservations.
