Guest reviews & verified fee notes for Peter Luger Steak House at Caesars Palace
Las Vegas Strip dining checks carry 8.375% Clark County sales tax; select resort operators also add a 3%–5% concession or administrative surcharge before gratuity.
5 stars all around. Price (lunch special) was a great offer. Service and atmosphere were top notch. Most importantly, the food was perfectly cooked and seasoned! Probably the best steak on the strip in my opinion.
Overall a solid 4-star experience, though it didn’t quite blow us away. The food was good and properly cooked, but nothing truly stood out or felt exceptional. On the other hand, the service and atmosphere were great throughout the meal. We were a party of two and had two glasses of wine, bringing the total to around $380 including tip. Decent overall, but pretty middle-of-the-road for the price point.
Absolute disappointment. From the moment we sat down, the experience was poor. We waited quite a while before our server came to take our order, and when she finally did, she seemed far more focused on the table next to us than on the one she was actually serving. We ordered a steak for two, approximately $170, and requested it cooked medium-plus. The waitress informed us they do not cook steaks “plus” and explained that the plate would come out extremely hot so we could finish cooking it to our preferred temperature at the table. While unusual, we decided to proceed. We skipped the side dishes because none of the options were particularly appealing. Just before our steak arrived, we were served a bowl of steak sauce. For anyone who truly enjoys a quality steak, that was already a red flag. A properly seasoned and prepared steak should not require sauce to provide flavor. When the steak arrived, it was tender, but completely lacking in flavor. It honestly tasted like cardboard. The steak sauce didn’t help—it tasted like a mixture of ketchup and cocktail sauce. The plate was nowhere near hot enough to continue cooking the steak as promised, so we asked for it to be cooked a little longer. When it returned, it was well-done and tasted like burnt cardboard. Without question, this was one of the worst steaks we have ever eaten. To make matters worse, when the waitress brought our check, it totaled $749. I immediately pointed out that it wasn’t ours. She took it back, corrected it, and returned with the proper check, but never apologized for the mistake. Overall, this was an extremely disappointing dining experience. Between the inattentive service, lackluster food, and careless billing error, I cannot recommend this restaurant. Calling it a steakhouse is a stretch. If you are someone who truly appreciates a great steak, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere. They fooled me once—there won’t be a second time.
Possibly the most famous steakhouse in the US. They are known for their dry aged steaks presented sizzling hot. Their drinks are handcrafted, well balanced, expectational. Every time I come to Vegas, I come to Peter Luger’s for the fine steaks. It was so good, I came twice on this trip! Thank you again Peter Luger’s for the wonderful experience!
This place came very highly recommended. The service was top notch. Prompt. Attentive and knowledgeable. The food also well above average. The bacon appetizer was delicious. The porterhouse steak was legit, but did remind me how much more I prefer tenderloin over strip. Also the plate is so hot it does continue to cook, maybe order down a temp. What killed me here is the cost. Figure in a min or $100 per person and realistically more like 200-250 if you plan to enjoy a $25 old fashioned which was great by the way. Not cheap, just feel like at those costs I expected a little more.
