Vegas' BEST REVIEWED Steakhouse! Is SW Steakhouse in Wynn Worth It?
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?

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

I appreciate your disclaimer about jus showing up and using a name they wouldn't associate with your KZread 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!
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.
Love your videos.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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'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!
Bugsy and Meyer's at the Flamingo is definitely worth a try. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
what was the little piece of food on the skewer next to the steak?
The bread doesn’t look like pretzel roll but more like a brioche roll
Excellent video! Honest. V cool.
Bro, great vid! If you're looking for foodie company the next time you're in the Bay Area, give me a holler 👍
I LOVE SW!! For me it’s the BEST!! The vibe, the food, the service, all of it is amazing
I’m addicted to this channel!!! Fair and honest food reviews!!! Keep going UA!!! Awesome channel!!!
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.
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.
Good job UA and travel buddy!
Nice review
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!!

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.
UA is my favorite food reviewer. Steaks, pastrami sandwiches, burgers. A man food reviewer
Excellent❤
I love your Travel Buddy... Bring him along in future Video 😃😃
You're my favorite reviewer of places I'll probably never eat at.
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.
Really happy to see this video doing well! You deserve all the success in the world!
Another awesome video!
I love the non-pretentious and laid back review, liked and subscribed
another great vid. love the honest opinions. what was on the skewer with the steak
Been watching your videos, just subscribed. Great content, very interesting
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.
nice hunter hunter reference very cool!
oh man that placed looks awesome... doubt ill ever go
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.
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.
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?
Well done UA
Kudos to YOU and your channel for your honest review to your channel!!! Keep up the GREAT Job!!! :)-
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.
Looking forward to seeing you in Japan UA!
You should review the Orangetown Classic Diner in NY!!
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 😊

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.
UA 🇨🇦 likes you.
Mac and cheese looked amazing. Just drop by for an order of that :)
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.

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!
I enjoy your reviews. It would be nice if you could review a nice restaurant that isn’t a Steak House.
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).
You’re the man UA Eats! Killing your niche to the fullest. Stay blessed 🙏🏾🍴
This guy knows how to review a steak. Killer job, UA.
This is a win for me. Mention of hunter x hunter and great steak!? Big W

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
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.
The bread looked like the egg bread called Challah. Not pretzel. Imo.
If you ever get to tampa try burns steakhouse! Very similar to golden steer! Great content.
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
Hey where's your vegas video where you got French onion soup? I wanna know where you went but I can't seem to find that video.
Hey UA, I’m a fan and was curious where about are you from? I see you rocking the Eagles hat a lot and talking about NJ, I currently live about 45mins to an hour outside of Seattle but am originally from Gloucester City/Camden City area and the Eagles are my team
Can't wait to see your Japan tour for Kobe beef
The steak at 11:20 looks awesome. Best part is that there are no juices on the plate, so they definitely rested it well.
We love, SW!
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.
Can you also do Vegas Chinatown, my good man?
that's a perfectly cooked steak... never been to the wynn - need to try this steakhouse next time im in vegas
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.
Your food reviews are great! I really enjoy watching your videos ❤

If it’s in the dish it has to be listed. Way too many folks w allergies as well as fussy eaters.
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?
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.
