Delmonico Steakhouse LLC

Emeril Lagasse's presence in Las Vegas isn't quite as strong as it used to be after his Lagasse's Stadium sports bar closed, but the former Food Network fixture still has Emeril's New Orleans Fish House at the MGM Grand and Delmonico Steakhouse at the Venetian. While the former is a solid choice for seafood and Banana Cream Pie, the latter is an exceptional steakhouse in a city that's full of 'em. The charbroiled prime cuts often "kick it up a notch" with Creole seasoning and the whiskey list has long been one of the best in the country. The dining room was given an upgrade recently, adding welcome comfort and energy to what was previously a somewhat sterile look.
