Best Steakhouses in Las Vegas 2026: The Ranked Guide
Our ranked guide to the best steakhouses in Las Vegas for 2026, from Bazaar Meat and SW to the Rat Pack-era Golden Steer, with the tables we book most.
Why we wrote this guide
Las Vegas has more great steakhouses per square mile than any city in the country, which is exactly why picking one is hard. The Strip alone runs a celebrity-chef flagship, a James Beard icon, a 60-year-old Rat Pack institution, and a half-dozen rooms doing dry-aged prime as well as anywhere in America. This is our ranked guide to the best Las Vegas steakhouses in 2026, built from the tables we book most and the rooms our guests ask for by name. Every venue below is one we reserve directly. Last updated late June 2026.
Looking for the table, not the reading? Tell us the night and the group and we will route you to the right room. The order below blends the quality of the room with the occasion it fits best, not just the size of the dining room.
The ranked guide
1. Bazaar Meat by Jose Andres (Sahara)
The most ambitious steak experience in the city. Jose Andres turned the steakhouse format inside out: live-fire cooking, a raw bar, the theatrical carving, and cuts you will not find on a standard prime menu. It is as much a dining event as a steak dinner, which is why it tops most serious Vegas steak lists. Book it when the meal itself is the occasion. See Bazaar Meat.
Best for: the marquee dinner, the group that wants the full show.
2. SW Steakhouse (Wynn)
Wynn's flagship steakhouse and one of the most polished rooms on the Strip. Lakeside seating facing the Lake of Dreams show, a deep wine program, and the kind of service Wynn is known for. SW is the move when you want a refined, grown-up steak dinner with a view and zero rough edges. See SW Steakhouse.
Best for: a special-occasion dinner where the setting matters as much as the food.
3. Prime Steakhouse (Bellagio)
Jean-Georges Vongerichten's Bellagio steakhouse, overlooking the fountains. A classic fine-dining steakhouse with a French accent, and one of the best fountain-view tables in the city. Prime has been a Strip benchmark for two decades and still earns it. See Prime Steakhouse.
Best for: the fountain-view anniversary or the client dinner that needs to impress.
4. Peter Luger Steak House (Caesars Palace)
The legendary Brooklyn institution opened its first outpost outside New York at Caesars Palace, and it brought the formula intact: the porterhouse for two, the sizzling platter, the no-substitutions confidence of a place that has done one thing since 1887. A pilgrimage for steak purists. See Peter Luger.
Best for: steak traditionalists and the porterhouse-for-two table.
5. Bavette's Steakhouse and Bar (Park MGM)
The moody, low-lit modern classic. Dark wood, leather, live music on the right nights, and a menu that nails the steakhouse standards without trying to reinvent them. Bavette's is the room people fall in love with, which is why it books out. See Bavette's.
Best for: date night and the group that wants atmosphere over spectacle.
6. Golden Steer Steakhouse (off-Strip)
The legend. Open since 1958, the Golden Steer is the original Las Vegas steakhouse, the room where the Rat Pack, Elvis, and a half-century of Vegas history ate. Red leather booths, tableside Caesar and bananas Foster, and zero interest in modern trends. It is not the newest or the flashiest steak in town, and that is the entire point. We book the Golden Steer for guests who want the real, original Vegas. (Off-Strip; we handle the reservation and the car.)
Best for: the once-in-a-trip classic, the Vegas-history dinner.
7. Papi Steak (Fontainebleau)
David Grutman's see-and-be-seen steakhouse, and the most theatrical table in town: the signature wagyu arrives in a gold briefcase with full presentation. Papi Steak is a party as much as a steak dinner, which is exactly what its crowd wants. Pair it with a Fontainebleau night out. See Papi Steak.
Best for: the celebration dinner that rolls into the night.
8. STK Las Vegas (The Cosmopolitan)
Steakhouse meets nightclub: a DJ, a high-energy room, and a younger crowd than the white-tablecloth rooms. STK is the pick when the group wants a steak dinner that already feels like the start of the night out. See STK.
Best for: the pre-club group dinner with energy.
9. BOA Steakhouse (The Palazzo)
A reliable, well-located Strip-front steakhouse with a strong prime program and an easy room for groups. BOA does not chase a gimmick; it does a very good steakhouse dinner in a convenient spot. See BOA Steakhouse.
Best for: a dependable group steak dinner in the heart of the Strip.
10. Mastro's Ocean Club (Crystals)
Steak and seafood under the sculptural Treehouse at Crystals. Mastro's pairs a serious prime program with a famous seafood tower and the warm butter cake everyone orders. The Ocean Club setting is one of the more dramatic dining rooms in the city. See Mastro's Ocean Club.
Best for: the surf-and-turf group and the butter-cake finish.
11. Don's Prime (Fontainebleau)
A newer supper-club-style steakhouse inside the Fontainebleau, leaning into the throwback Vegas dinner-and-a-show feel. The right pick if you are staying or playing at the Fontainebleau and want to keep the night in one building. See Don's Prime.
Best for: the Fontainebleau-based group that wants a supper-club vibe.

Why the steakhouse reservation is harder than it looks
The best Vegas steak tables on a weekend or a major event weekend (F1, NYE, fight nights, big conventions) book out weeks ahead, and the prime-time seatings go first. The public reservation platforms show you what is left, not what is possible. We work direct relationships with the rooms above, which means we can often place a table that the apps show as fully committed, and we can pair the steak dinner with the rest of the night.
How MyRSVP holds the table
We work two desks on every steakhouse request. Our venue-relations desk has direct relationships with the rooms above; our operations desk handles timing, the walk to the show or the club after, and any celebration setup (cake, a specific booth, a quiet corner for a proposal).
The process for you is short:
Tell us the night, the group size, and the room (or tell us the vibe and we will pick).
We come back inside 12 hours with the table, the time, and anything we can add.
You confirm. We hold it with the venue.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best steakhouse in Las Vegas?
For the single best steak experience, most serious diners point to Bazaar Meat by Jose Andres at the Sahara. For a refined special-occasion room, SW Steakhouse at Wynn and Prime at Bellagio lead. The right answer depends on the occasion, which is why we rank by fit above, not just reputation.
How much does dinner at a Las Vegas steakhouse cost?
Expect a prime steak entree at a Strip steakhouse to run roughly $65 to $130, and a full dinner with appetizers, sides, and wine to land around $150 to $350 per person depending on the room and the cuts. The marquee rooms and wagyu programs run higher. We can give you a realistic per-head estimate for any specific room before you book.
Which Las Vegas steakhouse is hardest to get into?
On weekends and major event weekends (F1, NYE, fight nights, big conventions), the prime-time tables at Bazaar Meat, SW, Bavette's, and Papi Steak book out first. Those are the rooms where a direct relationship matters most, which is where we come in.
What is the best steakhouse for a large group?
BOA, STK, and Mastro's Ocean Club all seat groups comfortably. For a celebration group that wants energy, STK or Papi Steak. For a quieter, refined group dinner, SW or Prime. Tell us the headcount and we will route the room that fits.
Is the Golden Steer worth it?
If you want the original, historic Las Vegas steakhouse experience, yes. Open since 1958, it is the Rat Pack-era classic, off-Strip, with tableside service and red leather booths. It is not modern fine dining and does not try to be. We book it for guests who want the real, old-school Vegas.
How far in advance should I book a Vegas steakhouse?
For a standard weekend prime-time table, 2 to 4 weeks. For F1 weekend, NYE, or a major fight or convention weekend, 6 to 8 weeks. Weeknights and off-peak seatings are often available inside a week. We can frequently place tables the public apps show as fully booked.
Do I need a reservation, or can I walk in?
The top rooms effectively require a reservation at prime time, especially on weekends. Walk-ins are possible at off-peak hours but not reliable for a group or a special occasion. Let us hold it so the night is not left to chance.
