If you’re planning a memorable meal in Las Vegas, it’s hard to not imagine it involving Vic & Anthony’s Steakhouse, one of the city’s most-awarded restaurants and one whose standards are as high as the day it opened downtown.

All your favorites are here, from jumbo shrimp and lobster bisque to fresh oysters on the half shell and seafood towers. While enjoying your choice of a caprese, Caesar or iceberg wedge salad, sip a classic cocktail, everything from a Manhattan and Old-Fashioned to a Negroni and margarita.

All steaks here feature USDA prime grain-fed beef, so when you dig into that filet mignon, prime ribeye, chateaubriand or porterhouse, you’ll taste the difference, especially when you complement them with Bearnaise, port peppercorn and blue cheese butter bacon. If you want beef but not steak, opt for the terrific wagyu braised beef, so tender and succulent and served with heirloom carrots, cipollini onions and crispy fingerling potatoes.

The entrée menu’s options include plenty of poultry and fish options. The fried lobster mac and cheese is a beast, made with a five-pound lobster tail, cavatappi pasta and lobster cheese sauce, while succulent, pan-roasted chicken is served with mashed potatoes and asparagus.

Desserts don’t get much more iconic than Vic & Anthony’s In the Round, a chocolate globe that is melted at your table, revealing banana semifreddo, roasted white chocolate crumble and bananas Foster sauce.
