We arrived with a much needed reservation. We had the Double-cut chili rubbed ribeye, paired with a Maine lobster tail and has a side of Potatoes Lyonnaise. The wine was an Argentina Malbec, Hand of God. This meal was simply fantastic! The experience and food quality was totally in keeping with a 5 star restaurant. Needless to say at 42 ounces, the ribeye was delicious with eggs for the next days breakfast!
its great but the prices is a little bit high for me and i think if you take down the prices you get more customers and i loved your place its beuty .
When Wynn Las Vegas opened its doors in 2005 it promised to usher in a new era for fine dining in Las Vegas, Chefs like Alex Stratta and Paul Bartolotta supposedly cooking in their kitchen each night, but flash forward over a dozen years and the tune is obviously quite different, only SW Steakhouse from David Walzog still adhering to its original concept or Chef and every bit as popular as it always has been after a recent facelift.Located along the Lake of Dreams, one of Wynns many waterfalls in this case sprawling back from the Parasol Up / Parasol Down Cocktail Lounge, SW Steakhouse occupies a space below the level of the gaming floor across from Walzogs sister Lakeside Restaurant and although the inward facing faade appears fairly unimpressive the space itself is a formal expanse with plush seating, big tables and subtle lighting.Decried by critics for high prices and the open layout, a sea of beige that admittedly does feel a bit less refined than the heavy woods and high ceilings of Carnevino or the darkened recesses of Jean-Georges Steakhouse, dinner at SW begins with check-in at the hostess podium and if one is lucky enough to have reserved early or rich enough to have negotiated otherwise a seat close to the lake offers a great vantage of both the room and a series of shows beginning at 9pm.Proud to be one of only a handful of restaurants in the United States serving 100% certified Tajima Cattle from the Hyogo Prefecture, the A5 graded Beef available at $55 per ounce with minimum of four, it is likely with wide eyes that many unsuspecting diners have sat and starred at the SW Menu and although certainly not a spot for bargain hunters the menu is actually one of the most diverse of the Casino Steakhouses with a long list of Sides, Appetizers, Desserts and Entrees plus a sizable collection of Daily Specials.Happy to see Chef Walzog on property, a quick pace moving him from SW Steakhouse to Lakeside and back while waiting for the entire party to arrive, it was with a team of servers including a female captain and several runners that the table was looked over and although a few small issues including a misfired side and odd delays in timing seemed a bit off for Wynn the evening was mostly smooth sailing over the course of nearly three hours.Opting to start with Cocktails and an imported Japanese Beer, prices ranging from $15-$22 more or less expected with both The Dream and Orange Rose brisk but elegant with a Wine and Spirit backbone bolstered by floral and fruity flavors, it was not long after an order was placed that the first of three baskets of Bread arrived, the Bacon and Cheddar Muffins as well as the salty Pretzel dangerously addictive both with and without Herb Butter slicked in Olive Oil.Treated to the sounds of The Ratpack throughout the evening, a large animatronic Frog later scaling the wall and serenading the crowd with Louis Armstrongs What a Wonderful World before two lighted spheres barely visible from anywhere but waterside danced about, it was perhaps twenty minutes after ordering that four appetizers made their way out from the kitchen, a classic Wedge Salad upgraded by thick-cut Bacon and Blue Cheese melted beneath tangy Buttermilk Dressing about as good as it gets for Iceberg Lettuce while Walzogs Bone Marrow stepped in a previously unseen direction with a thick lacquer of Lobster Stock that made the rich spread taste a lot like Shellfish Custard.Dining with another fan of Duck Liver, his preference for a seared preparation making it mandatory that both styles available that evening be ordered, it would be difficult to decide which version was better as both were quite good, the lack of caramelization on the Steak made less relevant by Pistachio Bread Pudding beneath while the Mousse was creamy and well balanced between sweet and savory, but served with far too little Brioche for spreading or sharing.Moving next to entrees and sides, the Wagyu passed over in favor of SWs signature Rib-Eye, a Dry Aged Bone-In Strip and the newly added Fish n Chips, those unafraid of spice and bored with the typical Steakhouse cuts would be well advised to invest $125 in the 42oz Chile-Rubbed Steak with two Ribs and lots of Peppers and Onions, the flavors all playing well off juicy flesh still sizzling in its pan and every bite far more interesting than the $72 Bone-In that lacks in flavor compared to that at Carnevino, Jean-Georges or the recently opened MB|Steak at Hard Rock where the exact same 18oz portion can be had with better texture and richness for $14 less. Underwhelmed by the Fish n Chips, a smallish-filet of Halibut that is baked beneath a crust of Malt-Vinegar Potatoes and served alongside overcooked Hashbrown Sticks on a bed of Lemon Beurre Blanc, SW Steakhouse makes up for a lack of creativity in its sides by way of quality and luxury ingredients, the Potato Rosti on a pedestal with Chive Cream a showstopper by any definition while Creamed Corn is still thick enough to have a tooth, though probably a bit more impressive during Black Truffle season.Not a fan of Walzogs Brussels Sprouts, the Crucifers coming across like soggy slaw rather than the crispy orbs served elsewhere, sides were completed by a late-arriving daily special of Semolina Gnocchi with chunks of Lobster and a few flakes of Summer Truffle in Parmesan Cream, the mixture expectedly rich though quite delicious and thankfully portioned large enough to go around considering the cost of $24.Cleansing the palate with a double Espresso, its arrival nearly fifteen minutes before Dessert not exactly ideal but better than long after, it was with mild curiosity that the description of a $100 Louis XIII 23-Karat Gold Bar Dessert was read twice, the decision to place a premium on variety eventually seeing Pastry Chef Svetlana Almonte send forth a quartet of sweets tallying $54, the Coconut Tapioca fairly harmless with the Passion Fruit easily scooped aside while both the Bread Pudding and Peaches and Cream were elegantly presented with fresh Fruit, great textures and restrained sweetness, the $22 Funnel Cake and Strawberries largely served for show with the fried Dough hung from metal Branches above a trio of luxurious Sauces.THREE STARS: Arguably the most expensive house of grilled Meats in Las Vegas, a fairly inauspicious title considering the competition, SW Steakhouse is a perfectly acceptable choice for those looking to enjoy a Steak and quality sides, but in the era of every Casino having its own signature spin on the genre there is nothing here all that compelling save for lakeside setting and even that seems a little contrived when compared to the dining rooms at Costa di Mare or Mizumi. endoedibles.com
Fancy place, very lively ambience and good service. I visited as part of a group so we had a private dining room. The starters were excellent – crab cakes (4/5), kale salad (4/5), yukon gold potato soup (4.5/5). For my entre I ordered the only chicken dish on the menu and it was disappointing as the chicken was dry as hell. The accompaniments and sides were pretty good. Others in our group who ordered steaks or scallops were quite happy with their dishes. For dessert I had the creme brule … it was ok.
WOW – loved it what a great spot – this is a very good place for a steak.. Just a short 5 min walk from the Trump Hotel I was staying at and recommended I try it – glad I did $$$ worth it
A must! If you want a nice dinner without the slot machines ringing in the background, this is your spot. Great view of you get a seat outside for the evening show. Almost forgot I was in Vegas. Have been here at least 5x and everything has been a great find on the menu. Beautiful service
A splurge, but well worth it. Great everything. They have an excellent list of Burgundies and wine people that know their stuff. And, I really like the bar – it and the room have a great vibe.
