There’s a sweet spot few restaurants reach in Las Vegas—ones that do massive business not only with tourists but with locals as well. Twin Creeks Steakhouse is one such restaurant, one that succeeds by keeping its recipe simple: Great ambience, great service, and great food, courtesy of chef Jaimee Pepe.
The warm, welcoming décor here is best enjoyed by starting with a classic opener like smoked beef tartare (here made with beef tenderloin and married with Dijonnaise and fried capers) and jumbo lump crab cake (flavored with charred avocado and mustard beurre blanc) before diving into a variety of meat options, from a 28-ounce porterhouse and 16-ounce ribeye to a 40-ounce Creekstone Farms tomahawk for two.
For a cool change of pace, check out Twin Creeks’ wagyu menu, featuring carpaccio with pickled shimeji mushrooms and truffle aioli; a 10-ounce burger with bone marrow-braised French onions and served with duck fat smashed potatoes; and a 12-ounce Spencer steak (pricey but oh-so-worth-it).
Dessert options range from a Brooklyn Blackout Cake and warm cinnamon roll bread pudding to smoked banana s’mores and Junior’s Cheesecake. And in one of the coolest promotions in town, try the Stakes Are High tableside cart (available when you order the tomahawk), where you roll three dice; depending on the outcome, you’ll get anything from a free dessert to a free tomahawk. Good luck!
