This Las Vegas outpost of the legendary Brooklyn steakhouse brings its 135-year tradition of dry-aged USDA Prime beef to the Strip, with an on-site, 4,000-square-foot dry-aging facility that maintains specific humidity and airflow to cultivate the distinctive flavor. The dining room channels a refined, old-world New York aesthetic with oak-top tables and leather seating, a departure from the original's German beer-hall feel. Expect bow-tied servers and a focus on quality over an expansive menu.
★ The Legend
Steak for Two
Peter Luger is renowned for its USDA Prime porterhouse, dry-aged on-site for a minimum of 28 days in a controlled environment that develops a concentrated, nutty flavor and tenderizes the meat. It arrives at your table sizzling hot, pre-sliced into thick, rosy-centered strips, with hot juices pooling at one end for drizzling.
◆ Fan Favorite
Luger's Sizzling Bacon
This extra-thick cut bacon is often described as akin to a rich chunk of pork butt, with a distinct smoky and cured flavor that sets it apart from typical bacon. Many regulars insist it's even better with a dash of Peter Luger's own steak sauce, which adds a sweet and sour note.
● Chef's Pick
Chilled Shellfish Tower
This impressive tower, stacked with Maine lobster, King Crab, jumbo shrimp, and oysters, is a menu item specifically added for the Las Vegas location. Daniel Turtel, Vice President of Peter Luger Steakhouse, noted that while they resisted adding a filet, the shellfish tower was a concession to the Vegas dining scene, offering a luxurious, full-throttle indulgence.
◇ Hidden Gem
Luger's Special German Fried Potatoes
Most tables go straight for the creamed spinach, but regulars know to order these German fried potatoes, made with Yukon gold potatoes, for their unique combination of textures and rich, savory flavor. They're particularly good when combined with the Peter Luger sauce, which cuts through the richness.
✦ Off the Menu
Luger Burger
This half-pound USDA Prime burger, made with chuck and dry-age trimmings, is exclusive to the lunch menu and offers a taste of their renowned beef in a different format. It's served simply on a soft sesame bun with caramelized onions, allowing the quality of the meat to shine without heavy condiments.
