$27 vs $400 Vegas Steak Dinner | Vegas Steakhouses - Peter Luger's, Golden Steer & Ellis Island

Sometimes one needs a break from buffets! And aside from the buffets, Vegas is known for it's amazing steakhouses! From places offering prime rib for $9.99 to steakhouses offering A5 Wagyu where the sky's the limit for the cost of the meal.

Wanting to try Vegas' oldest classic steakhouse, The Golden Steer, I was all set and made my reservations months in advance. But as luck would have it, after ordering a fantastic meal, having it arrive, and just as I was to take the first bite of the appetizers, the power went out... And unfortunately, without power, the restaurant had to close down for the night.

Now, with the appetite primed for amazing steaks, I thought it would be fun to try a variety of steaks in Vegas, from places offering steak dinners focusing on great value to those focusing on luxury and extravagance.

For the steak dinner offering great value, we have the standby favourite, the Village Pub over at Ellis Island offer their full prime rib dinner for $28 with a double cut prime rib, potatoes, soup or salad, and additional sides. An amazing deal as one would expect because they also have the best deal in town (or at least the best deal near the Vegas Strip) for Fish and Chips.

For the luxurious extravagant steak dinner, we have Peter Luger's over at the Caesars offering their famous porterhouse sizzling hot on their iconic searing hot plate drenched in the luscious beef fat at $160. But that's not all as one cannot dine on steak alone... through in some potatoes, some sides, and of course, the onions and tomatoes, and you're looking at a bill around $400.

Which is the winner? Which tastes better? I intend to find out!

Hi Tim 👋 just wanted to say thank you for introducing us to the incredible experience at Peter Luger Steakhouse 😄 It's mind-blowing to think that such a legendary place has been delighting people for 135 years ! Here is Houston, I could probably stock up on tomatoes and onions for a month for $17.95 😅 Awesome video Tim 👍

[crabbycdntucktoyuktuck]

You are such a gentleman. You are are an exemplary representation of Canadian manners.

I like you take comments seriously. Most of us will not spend that much on a Peter Luger's experience (though we would like to), but the alternative looks delicious for the most part. Thank you!

Tim, I enjoy watching your restaurant review video. It’s honest and not forced. Some other YouTubers nitpick and try to find a negative but your reviews are genuine… FYI you can sometimes find open seating at the bar as a walk in at Golden Steer.

You had me at rib cap❤ What a bargain at VP for that amazing looking prime rib dinner!

[rustinlee]

I’m a big Ellis island / village pub fan and particularly the prime rib and fish and chips. Most of the time it’s very good, but I’ve also had on rare occasion a “dry” experience with the prime rib and a “soggy” experience with the fish. But 85% of the time it’s really good, just a matter of which chef is working I think.

The food at Peter Luger looks absolutely spectacular!
Thank you, Tim, for bringing us along!

[lynnchurchill]

The steak at Peter Luger's looked amazing! The prime rib looked good too. A nice experience.

[lynnec]

Tim, it's nice that you included 2 food reviews from different ppl. But please don't "blame" yourself for steering some wrong. We all have different tastes. Some things taste better to different ppl. So don't worry about that. The food looked really tasty.

[askajk]

Love all the videos you do!! The quality is amazing and you are so friendly.

[leonnguyen]

$20 for tomato and onion, $18 for broccoli, $12 for a potato... like they are not making enough money with the steaks, wines and deserts... pure greedy, what a turn off.

I really like to watch your channel Tim, you are very kind and such a gentleman.

[genaragland]

I'm in Vegas at least twice a year. Ellis Island is always a stop for me. Breakfast, lunch or dinner. 😂 Great service. Food is consistent, good and most importantly cheap.

[Elizabeth-Arrington]

Congratulations on running the marathon❤. Great video.

[ShondaReph]

Lovely dinners. You are such a gentleman.

Hi Tim, it's not a potato salat, it's german rosted in pan potatos. It is called Bratkartoffeln in Germany. Greetings as always from Berlin / Germany ❤😊
