It’s no surprise to anyone that the Las Vegas Strip is packed with fantastic steakhouses. What might surprise some people, however, is the number of excellent steak-focused restaurants scattered throughout the valley. From Summerlin to Henderson, and of course, Downtown, you’ll find excellent purveyors of beef serving gorgeous cuts in well-appointed restaurants. And when we surveyed local F&B pros to find out where they go for steak, their answers were split between on- and off-Strip.
If you’re a local who prefers to stay close to home, or a visitor who wants to explore the valley, these are the off-Strip steakhouses you’ll want to investigate. (Find more info on each, including the opinions of local pros, at Neon Feast.) And of course, if you’re limiting your time in Vegas to Strip casinos, we have you covered, with an article on Neon News and a directory on Neon Feast.
Barry’s Downtown Prime (Circa, 8 Fremont Street)
Barry’s sets a moody, luxurious tone in the basement of Circa on Fremont Street, with intimate, winding rooms that channel vintage Vegas glamor. Chef Barry Dakake, known for his work at N9NE and Scotch 80 Prime, presents a menu centered on dry- and wet-aged steaks, fresh seafood, and inventive touches, such as lobster and shrimp potstickers. Pasta appears as both a side and starter, with indulgent additions like lobster mac and cheese. Red wines and whiskey cocktails complement the experience in this stylish, modern steakhouse.
Bob Taylor’s Original Ranch House (6250 Rio Vista Street)
This throwback to the Wild West is one of Las Vegas’ oldest steakhouses, retaining its rustic charm on the city’s northwestern edge, near Centennial Hills. Gravel parking and Western decor set the tone for a homey, old-school dining experience with hearty portions and fair prices. Steak options range from petite filet mignon to the 32-ounce Diamond Jim Brady New York strip—free if you manage to finish it. The menu also covers fish, chicken, and casual sandwiches and burgers during lunch hours. Sides, such as ranch potatoes and rotating desserts, pair well with the restaurant’s extensive wine list.
Cleaver (3900 Paradise Road)
This sleek, modern steakhouse, just a 20-minute walk from Sphere Las Vegas, is the brainchild of Nectaly Mendoza, the award-winning mixologist behind Herbs & Rye. Unlike his first concept, Cleaver gives equal weight to both its elevated Italian steakhouse fare and expertly crafted cocktails. The menu leans into in-house butchered and aged steaks, which can be customized with fifteen different sauces, butters, crusts or toppings. One bold option is the “Cleaver style” steak, spiced and topped with a blue cheese crust, bacon, and a fried egg. Many dishes are available at a deep discount during early and late happy hours, which sometimes last all night.
Echo & Rig (Summerlin Location, Tivoli Village; Henderson Location, The District at Green Valley Ranch)
Chef Sam Marvin’s two Echo & Rig locations blend a full-service steakhouse with an old-school butcher shop. Near the entrance to each, guests can chat with classically trained butchers beside a glass meat locker or grab a sandwich at the casual counter. Or ask to be seated and peruse the menu. Apps and small plates include grilled octopus, and the steak offerings include lesser-utilized cuts like tri-tip, Spencer, hanger and wagyu filet. The Butcher Blend Burger, made from USDA Prime beef, is layered with Brandywine tomatoes, bibb lettuce, red onion, and aioli. With locations in Tivoli Village and beyond, Echo & Rig earns praise across categories from chefs, restaurateurs and culinary tour guides alike.
Golden Steer Steakhouse (308 W. Sahara Avenue)
A true Vegas institution since 1958, Golden Steer preserves the vintage charm of its Rat Pack era roots while embracing thoughtful modern updates. Longtime team members — some with over 35 years of service — help maintain the warm, classic hospitality that defines this off-Strip legend. A strict dress code reinforces the restaurant’s commitment to tradition, creating a refined setting that evokes a sense of stepping back in time. The menu centers on USDA prime aged, corn-fed beef, including prime rib, filet and New York strip, with seafood and Italian specialties as supporting players. A full bar delivers timeless cocktails and a well-rounded wine selection to complement the rich, classic fare.
Hank’s Fine Steaks & Martinis (Green Valley Ranch)
Hank’s brings upscale steakhouse dining to Henderson, offering both luxury and comfort in a refined setting. The menu features USDA Prime cuts, including Kansas City and New York strips, filet mignon, ribeye, and a 30-ounce tomahawk, alongside shareable options such as a 20-ounce Chateaubriand. Guests can also explore grass-fed filet mignon, American wagyu prime rib, certified Japanese A5 ribeye, and even American bison ribeyes. Customizations and classic sides round out the experience—but don’t skip the show-stopping tableside bananas Foster with sour cream ice cream.
Harlo Steakhouse & Bar (Downtown Summerlin)
Harlo brings the indulgent flair of a Strip steakhouse to Downtown Summerlin, offering a refined experience in a neighborhood setting. Chef Gina Marinelli leads the kitchen, focusing on premium dry-aged steaks, many of which are grilled over open flames for added depth and aroma. Beyond beef, the menu features standout pasta, seafood, elegant side dishes, and a strong emphasis on caviar service. The Art Deco design lends timeless elegance to the dining room, and complimentary valet service is a rare perk in this busy retail district.
Joe Vicari’s Andiamo Italian Steakhouse (The D, Fremont Street)
The D’s steakhouse blends classic American steakhouse traditions with refined Italian fare in a polished, upscale setting. Premium meats take center stage, including Stockyard Premium beef, Strauss lamb and veal, and Pat LaFrieda cuts, ranging from 8-ounce filets to 24-ounce porterhouses. Italian touches shine through with house-made breads, award-winning sauces, and handmade pastas that round out the robust menu. The combination of high-end steaks and traditional Italian flavors makes this a favorite for special occasions and downtown dining with a touch of elegance.
Mae Daly’s Fine Steaks & Whiskeys (2211 Las Vegas Blvd. South)
Mae Daly’s may be located across from The STRAT on Las Vegas Boulevard, but it was designed with locals in mind. The décor blends 1930s-inspired elegance with modern comfort, featuring black-and-white tile floors, tin accents, chandeliers, dark wood, and plush seating beneath large windows. The steak menu highlights USDA Prime cuts in a range of styles, including wet- and dry-aged, grass-fed, American Wagyu, and Certified Japanese Kobe A5 Wagyu. Meals take on a theatrical flair thanks to a chef’s stage, where dishes are personally presented to guests by the chef.
Main St. Provisions (1214 S. Main St.)
Located in the revitalized Downtown Arts District, Main St. Provisions has played a central role in transforming the area into one of Las Vegas’ top dining destinations. Owner Kim Owens, a Louisiana native and longtime executive for a national steakhouse brand, brings a personal and welcoming vision to the space, featuring warm hospitality and artwork from local creatives. The eclectic menu focuses on seasonal, upscale comfort food, featuring ingredients chosen for their freshness and quality, to create dishes that feel both familiar and elevated. At its center, however, are the steaks and chops. A thoughtful bar program complements the cuisine.
Scotch 80 Prime (The Palms)
A flagship of The Palms’ restaurant collection, Scotch 80 Prime reinforces the property’s status as a top-tier off-Strip dining destination. Chef Marty Lopez brings a creative edge to the sleek, modern space, drawing on experience from top Strip restaurants to deliver precise technique and bold ideas. The menu includes prime beef from domestic and international producers, as well as duck, pork and chicken, paired with thoughtful sides and luxurious starters. Unexpected accents, such as lobster fried rice and yuzu kosho-topped lobster thermidor, offer inventive twists on classic fare, making this one of the city’s most acclaimed steakhouses.

The Charcoal Room (4949 N. Rancho Dr.)
Located in a Station Casinos property in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, The Charcoal Room delivers classic steakhouse comforts in a low-key, welcoming environment. The décor shies away from clichés in favor of warm tones of rust, gold, stone, and wood, while the efficient and friendly service reflects a strong base of local regulars. Guests can choose from grass-fed filet mignons, Prime New York sirloins, ribeyes, and bone-in Porterhouses, accompanied by options such as Gorgonzola fondue, Oscar-style, or au poivre.
