steakhouses...mainly craftsteak vs. delmonico's

[rageotones]

ok, so i'm going to vegas next month, and we plan on eating at a nice steak place while we're there. from the old restaurant thread, it seemed delmonico's got a lot of hype, and we planned on eating there.

however, after looking at some online reviews, it seems like it's been kind of hit-n-miss. i get the impression that they kind of think they're hot [censored], so they might not work as hard as some other restaurants.

as an alternative, i'm thinking about craftsteak also. it's in a good location seeing that we plan on seeing KA afterwards.

any advice or better suggestions?

thanks in advance

I make a point of going to three places to eat when I am in Vegas:

In-N-Out Burger
Canter's Deli
Delmonico's

I have never felt that the service or people at Delmonico's is uppity. I have always had a great time and plan on having a great time Saturday at 5PM, which is my next scheduled visit. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I've eaten at both. You can't go wrong with either.

However, if given the choice, I'd go back to Craftsteak.

After your last trip report, you can probably sell tickets to your next trip.

Yes, you too can attend the Vegas Drunken Gambooling Fantasy Camp, presented by a 2+2 legend, for only $99.

I've been to both more than once....for the ambience and decor, Delmonico's. For the food, Craftsteak hands down. Delmonico's food is quite good but Craftsteak is superior. For a really really good meal if you have a few extra $$ Joel Rubichon is excellent.

i think the steak at nine is better than the steak at delmonico's. nine is loud though.

Craftsteak is the 2nd best steak I've ever had in my life.

The #1 slot belongs to a place in Madison, WI. You know, they're very close to the source there. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Edit to say I've never eaten at Delmonico's in Vegas. Actually my #1 is Johnny Delmonico's in Madison. Don't know if they are related, but I doubt it. (Delmonico is a cut of beef)

Not related. The Delmonico's in Vegas is an Emeril restaurant, based off the original Delmonico's in New Orleans.
