Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in Sahara Avenue

Always iconic when it comes to service and food. We enjoyed our Christmas dinner and as always is was without exception. Service, food, cocktails, presentation, decorations were perfection. The Bone Marrow was simply amazing, pure indulgence. The rib eye, prime rib and chicken parmigiana were cooked and seasoned to perfection. Finished our evening with espresso and the bananas foster. Some may say Golden Steer is not worth the wait to get a reservation, but when you are on the Mount Rushmore of Las Vegas steakhouses, it takes time, but well worth the wait. As Las Vegas valley locals, we can eat anywhere but we chose to continue to frequent Golden Steer and its for a reason.

I accidentally booked a reservation for 2 instead of 3 (including our 10-year-old) for 7:30 on Christmas night. We called to let them know and were relieved that they were able to accommodate us. The next reservation for 3 was at 10:30 PM when I realized my mistake and tried to change my reservation. The roast chicken a la grand-mere was delicious and perfectly cooked. The frisée & lardon was very good. My daughter got the steak et frites, which was a bit tough but she liked it. Banana Foster was pricey but delicious. Asked if we could room charge but the waiter said it takes 10 minutes. I’m assuming he didn’t want to do the room charge. Overall we enjoyed our dinner and were grateful that the manager approved the change to our reservation.

We were almost seated next to the noisy kitchen but the hosted immediately sensed our displeasure and called for a different table. Both were great views of the Bellagio. Roman was our lead server and the server team was very attentive. The steak and chicken were the most tender we’ve ever had of either. The crème brulee is the best we’ve found. I had the peppermint soufflé which was outstanding as well. Zero complaints about the food. However, for $155 a person, bread should have been included. It felt stingy to charge another $8 for that. The portions were meager as well, but you were left wanting more, that’s for sure.

We dined on Christmas Day @ 10:15 AM. We had reservations so we were seated immediately. The offerings were plentiful and varied....from Asian, Mexican, Italian, Seafood Station, Carving table, omelets. Our server was a bit laggy, we had to flag her down for refills on coffee and water. The ambience is nice if a tad confusing...I had to remember where we were seated. The price was $99 a person....pricey yes but it was the holiday so no whining. Overall it was very enjoyable and they had good Christmas music as the soundtrack.

We were so excited to visit Hell's Kitchen, and it did not disappoint! The location is spectacular and the restaurant was pristine. Our view was the incredible fountains of Caesars Palace. Such a fun, exciting dining experience. John was our server and he went above and beyond! I have a very dangerous allergy to milk protein and he asked us right away if we had any food allergies he should know about. He let me know that there was dairy in 2 of the items we were ordering. (they were for my teen) I thought that was so special. Food allergies are so embarrassing, I really appreciated the care John took! His server assistant was professional, and friendly. The restaurant was packed and you would never have known that by the way our table was taken care of. Well done. We're Vegas locals, so we're fortunate to have a lot of great dining choices. This was one of the best meals we've ever had. Highly recommend Hell's Kitchen. You made our Christmas Eve very special and memorable. Thank you.
