- Las Vegas steakhouses are famous all around the world. While this channel is based in NYC, and the famous NYC steakhouses are all iconic, Vegas is also known for a robust steakhouse scene. Not only does Vegas have locations of many, if not most, of the iconic New York steakhouses, but there are also many steakhouses unique to Vegas itself that can hold a candle to any of the best steaks in New York!
We ate at Las Vegas' Golden Steer on the first stop of this Vegas series. The connection between the Golden Steer and Elvis and the Golden Steer and Frank Sinatra, among other A list celebrities of the time, are well known. However, the highest reviewed steakhouse in Vegas, at least according to Google and Yelp, is SW Steakhouse. SW Steakhouse and Golden Steer are both similarly reviewed, both very high accolades of higher than 4.0 on average with thousands of reviews, but SW Steakhouse is the best steakhouse in the Las Vegas strip, while Golden Steer is more outside of the strip.
Is SW Steakhouse worth the hype? It is very expensive even by Vegas standards. For context, Gallaghers in Vegas charges around $60 for a NY Strip, while at SW Steakhouse we paid more than $80. Is Vegas' Most Expensive Steakhouse really worth the price? Or is it all overhyped and just expensive because it's in the luxurious Wynn Hotel?

I SO appreciate an honest and thorough review, so THANK YOU!!
I took a bite of pizza today and without thinking, I made your food face. My husband asked me what the heck I was doing 🤣🤣🤣
Surprised he didn’t call 9-1-1 thinking you were having a stroke. We love UA🥴
Surprised he didn’t divorce you. 😂
Do you remember when he was eating at the golden steer and when he did that face, the waitress asked him if he was okay? 😂😂😂😂

I like you explaining your no notice show up rules. That actually *does* help ensure your credibility. Good on you!
Don’t lose the average guy side of your reviews. I appreciate it.
I could go to the Wynn as a once in a lifetime thing, but would choose The Golden Steer because of your reviews
A smart youtuber would combine fine dining with cheap fast food places. Something for everyone.
What a great, honest review! I really enjoy your channel! Thanks for the work!
Love you reviews. Keep up the good work.
The best thing about SW Steakhouse is all it takes is a $20 tip, and you will get seated with a perfect view of the Lake of Dreams show. Best $20 you will ever spend in Vegas. The food is pretty good, too..
I didn't know that!
What is a lake of dreams for those prices it must be life changing
For those prices I better see the afterlife ... Pretty good ain't cutting it for an 195$ piece of meat
Excellent as always. Even when you have the big bucks I hope you generally keep to choosing the menu options most of us would be able to experience as a normal special occasion. You’ll absolutely love Japan when you get there.
Great content
UA looks like he's in pain when he likes something lol
true and goig to sleep
Bro, great vid! If you're looking for foodie company the next time you're in the Bay Area, give me a holler 👍
Love your videos.
Great review
Bugsy and Meyer's at the Flamingo is definitely worth a try. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you for giving us a taste of Vegas. I thought you'd enjoy SW Steakhouse a little more, but when you ordered the NY strip.i knew there would be trouble because you ordered the same thing at Sparks and they make the best sirloin anywhere Golden Steer looks like the place to go. Looking forward to your return to NY reviews ...I'm the meantime , be well.
Keep up the great work brother!
You know the wait is killing me! If I die before the premiere, I wish UA all the best.
Did you make it Patrick? Should I order a search and rescue?
Hope you don't die patrick if you do it's all wong!
We appreciate your honesty UA, God Speed with the channel. Oasis and Blur definetly two of my favorite alt rock bands ever, you are spot on.
Good job UA and travel buddy!
Thank you for your mission statement
Thanks for the review. It takes guts to be honest and I appreciate your unbiased views. A rarity in this world, whether food or otherwise.
Went to Sushi 35 West a little over a year ago because of your review! Great spot
Started watching your content recently. You have all the trappings of someone who has a bright future. Keep up the good work, God bless and much love sir.
Excellent video! Honest. V cool.
UA, I love your channel. There is something so authentic and real about it, keep it simple like you do, and I am sure you will grow and grow as a channel.
Couple of remarks:
1. Could the bread be more like a Chala jewish bread, the kind eaten on Friday night at the Kidush?
2. Gauda is a Dutch cheese and is pronounced Ja-oo-da
1. It’s Challah. And challah is just egg bread w honey. And it doesn’t taste like a pretzel. Ans there would be no salt.
2. It’s Gouda. Not Gauda. In the states it’s pronounced Goo da or Gow da. In the Netherlands it’s How da.
I appreciate your disclaimer about jus showing up and using a name they wouldn't associate with your TH-cam channel and that you always pay out of pocket. Respect. You need to mention that a few more times in coming videos so people know...especialy newbs to your channel so they know exactly what's up. Keep up the great content UA!
Steakhouses are the best. Love your videos!!!
A bit of advice for when you eventually go to Japan. There are numerous kinds of Wagyu that are considered far superior to Kobe, (And are more expensive, of course) but because it's *so* rich, make sure and be careful about how much you eat in a short period of time. (IE don't go to two steak houses in one day, or IMO even back to back) because it sort of just overwhelms your taste buds so it starts tasting all the same and you miss out on the uniqueness of each kind of Wagyu. Also avoid Ichiran like the plague for Ramen, there are about 100 billion places that are superior and cheaper.
Another great review!
Thank you!
Your description of the pretzel made me laugh. It looks like the pretzel bun you can get at lidl for a dollar
Wynn has always had a great buffet too, which is my personal favorite, so I hope you get a chance to review it some time.
Awesome review! There’s a ton of places in vegas to eat! Maybe upon your return, you could do places like Earl of sandwich, not necessarily fancy restaurants or buffets. But hey, it’s your channel, do your thing and I’ll keep watching! See ya on the next one, UA!!
Love your dedication bro keep goin king of steaks
Thanks! Wow what a compliment!
I love your Travel Buddy... Bring him along in future Video 😃😃
I'm hooked on these food reviews - UA's vids feel so honest and relatable compared to other high production "foodie" reviews. Keep up the great work!
The strip steak that you got at Sparks is obviously the top notch premium. That steak looked incredible. Dark crust on both sides. The middle looked like the consistency of a filet.
That creamed spinach looked super delicious! I LOL'd when UA said the texture was "slimy" 😂😂😂 That dish isn't for everyone.
I’m addicted to this channel!!! Fair and honest food reviews!!! Keep going UA!!! Awesome channel!!!
another great vid. love the honest opinions. what was on the skewer with the steak
what was the little piece of food on the skewer next to the steak?
oh man that placed looks awesome... doubt ill ever go
Another awesome video!
I LOVE SW!! For me it’s the BEST!! The vibe, the food, the service, all of it is amazing
Nice review
Looking forward to seeing you in Japan UA!
SO GLAD you ditched the ragtime music. Good work on this vid. Appreciate your channel description. Good stuff. Choosing a steak you could review elsewhere gives this vid great relevance.
Did you check if that steak was grass fed? That could explain the lack of marbling.
Excellent video. I was at Prime last week in the Bellagio and felt similar. The sides, appetizers, and dessert were spot on. Some on the best I've had. I equated the steak (bone-in ribeye) to a steak I would expect from a truck stop diner. SO disappointed and not worth the price.
Enjoyed the video. Like the idea of making reviews accessible... but I think if you go all out to a place like SW you have to go with the Kobe or at least the Rib eye or Porterhouse.
UA is my favorite food reviewer. Steaks, pastrami sandwiches, burgers. A man food reviewer
I love the non-pretentious and laid back review, liked and subscribed
You have quickly become my favourite food vlogger. I think you're channel is on the cusp of an explosion. Great stuff.
You're my favorite reviewer of places I'll probably never eat at.
Mac and cheese looked amazing. Just drop by for an order of that :)
Been watching your videos, just subscribed. Great content, very interesting
Excellent❤
UA… there’s a gem inside the Wynn. The tableau. Gotta eat breakfast or brunch there and if the weather is ok you must get an outside table by the pool. You will love it. Get the juice flight!
Couldn't make the premiere due to work, but all caught up. Thank you for a great Vegas series, can't wait to see what's next! If you could pull of a Japan trip like you mentioned, that would be amazing.
@uaeats F.Y.I Kobe Bryant's parents name him after the city Kobe not the beef. At the time the beef was that popular yet.
100% wrong
I worked at the Wynn and Encore for almost 4 years until 2022. Great property! PS the window only looks out to the patio and the Lake of Dreams, not the Strip 😊
I completely agree with you. 🎉
I’ve been to Wolfgang’s Steakhouse (midtown location) and Rocco’s Steakhouse in NYC.
Wolfgang’s is my favorite, The Porterhouse, Cream Spinach, German Potatoes, Mac n Cheese, and that Crabcake is great.
Only been a few times for special occassions
I liked Sparks steakhouse on 2nd Ave in NYC. If you've never eaten there, I would give it a shot. I used to take my clients there. They liked it very much.
Where big boss was killed Paul Castinlono
The bread doesn’t look like pretzel roll but more like a brioche roll
8:32 Props for the server offering half sides...unusual for them to offer a discount instead of trying to sell 2 different whole sides. I'd probably tip more for that. Brilliant, I'd rather tip her the difference for the intel instead of overspending without it.
The steak at 11:20 looks awesome. Best part is that there are no juices on the plate, so they definitely rested it well.
nice hunter hunter reference very cool!
After your review of the menu prices I agree that the food needs to be equal to or exceed the stated value. In this case it appears the prices leans more toward being on the Wynn property rather than the quality of the offerings. When I lived in Las Vegas you could get high quality food for a reasonable price but Las Vegas has fallen into the trap of providing fancy trappings to qualify the high prices. Good reviews.
Could you do a video on your tipping guidelines? Maybe show the final bills with tips?
Kudos to YOU and your channel for your honest review to your channel!!! Keep up the GREAT Job!!! :)-
I enjoy your reviews.
It would be nice if you could review a nice restaurant that isn’t a Steak House.
Well done UA
SW is the best steak venue in Vegas. Tried most and been disappointed by many but SW ticked all the boxes. 10/10 IMHO
You should review the Orangetown Classic Diner in NY!!
UA, I appreciate your honesty, diligence and impartiality in these videos - in my opinion, it makes your videos a great deal more appealing. The SW review takes it to another level, although I wonder if that pretzel bread MAY have been elevated by some butter (unless I missed it). Arguably, at that location, it should have delivered immediately without augmentation (now I sound like Spock).
UA! A wisconsin supper club trip might blow you away, just a thought!
The bread looked like the egg bread called Challah. Not pretzel. Imo.
Really happy to see this video doing well! You deserve all the success in the world!
Another great video! Creamed spinach is supposed to be creamy. That looks like every creamed spinach I've ever had. Same with the NY Strip. It looked great but no different than what I can get at Texas Roadhouse or Outback. If you want better marbling, you have to go with the ribeye. Good review. I look forward to your next video.
937th 👍! Dang You Tube, no notification for my recent favorite TH-cam host! Mmmmmm 👌 I enjoy seeing your facial expressions when you really enjoy something. Shared to my Facebook page too.
I usually go to SW around 2 out of every 3 years. Including the ambience, it is my third favorite steakhouse behind Strip Steak and Bally's Steakhouse which has been replaced with Binion's Steakhouse. My last visit to SW was a little off. The flavor wasn't up to SW standards. It was probably just that one occurrence, and I will definitely not let a single visit stop me from going back. Although the price might. I love the show on the pond every half-hour.
Ok I was anxious for this review because SW is my favorite steakhouse in Vegas. I will tell you I was shocked at the bread. They changed it. Use to be a variety of breads in a basket. Pretzel sticks,muffin type bread and onion bread. Also the bone in ribeye is to die for. Wish you had gotten it but it really went up in price. Sides are excellent. Too bad you weren’t thrilled but I can’t say I blame you.
UA paid a premium to eat at a restaurant in the ultra high class Wynn Resort. So a $86 NY strip steak would cost $50-65 at a regular Las Vegas resort. The high price effected UA's review so if it had cost less, the review would've been above average.
This guy knows how to review a steak. Killer job, UA.
You’re the man UA Eats! Killing your niche to the fullest. Stay blessed 🙏🏾🍴
We loved the lawry in vegas the creamed corn was out of this world
Lawry has been on my list to go to! I've heard good things. I haven't been to SW yet, lots say it isn't as good as when Steve Wynn ran the resort
If you ever get to tampa try burns steakhouse! Very similar to golden steer! Great content.
that's a perfectly cooked steak... never been to the wynn - need to try this steakhouse next time im in vegas
@uaeats SW is solid when I had it years ago. You should try this place off strip next time you’re in Las Vegas called Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse. Solid steaks and you can even get a foie gras butter on the side if you want that really kicks up the umami flavor.
Ah, I was wondering if you were going to go to either this steakhouse or the other really famous (expensive) steakhouse and sure enough, SW it is. The other steakhouse is really much more expensive overall - they literally have an A5 Wagyu steak that's like $1200. So the prices at SW are much more in line with other higher end spots but overall still more expensive than steakhouses in NY or LA etc. BUT, SW makes a good steak. At least when I used to go to Vegas. Last time I went was in 2002, and it was a terrific time. But then again I also was staying at the Wynn that trip and boy gambling sure a thing eh?
are you a fan of steak and eggs? i tried that for the first time recently with 2 sunny sides and 3 strips of a tender well done steak. fried to warm it up in the same pan as the eggs. its insane. its not bacon but just as good.
As a Vegas resident I love Herbs and Rye on Sahara. The 16oz ribeye is delicious and The Golden Steer for the filet mignon and the table side Ceasers salad. That New York strip looked dry and the spinach was extremely overcooked, I avoid steakhouses on the Strip because the prices are ridiculous.
Isn't that kinda true of the strip in general? I've only been there once and we're talking the 90s...
Can't wait to see your Japan tour for Kobe beef
I thought you had to ask first if you can video tape it. Wasn’t one time at some high / afternoon tea place a staff came during your meal and told you weren’t allowed to video there, but you told her you had called ahead and permission was granted?
Nah. Go downtown to Oscar’s at the Plaza instead. Best steakhouse in all LV for price and quality.
Love the effort and hustle UA!
I love how they list roasted tomatoes as an ingredient for the mac n cheese but it's actually just a tiny piece sitting on top
If it’s in the dish it has to be listed. Way too many folks w allergies as well as fussy eaters.
I have eaten there twice.First time three guys split a NY and a Rib Steak.Best we have ever had.2nd time last year there with my sons we had a Porterhouse.It was good but I preferred the Rib and NY from the first time.
Note not all Wagyu is from Kobe. It’s just the most well known in the west. There’s many regions that raise Wagyu: Matsuzaka, Ohmi, Hilda etc. let me know if you come to Japan!
Your food reviews are great! I really enjoy watching your videos ❤
UA, I like your honest reviews but i think you should eat the food as they arrive and then do full detail thought after or voice over
