What is the dress code at Delmonico Steakhouse?
Delmonico Steakhouse, as you’d expect from a classic steakhouse, has a business casual dress code. Restaurants in Las Vegas tend to have more lax dress codes, so there is some leeway for your attire at Delmonico, though men are not permitted to wear tank tops or flip-flops. But having to put on nicer duds is a small price to pay for the sophisticated décor and New Orleans-style food you’ll enjoy at Emeril Lagasse’s Las Vegas steakhouse. From the Cajun crab cakes to the tableside-prepared Caesar salad, Delmonico offers you the best of the traditional steakhouse with a distinct Big Easy twist.

What is the interior design of Delmonico Steakhouse?
Delmonico Steakhouse has a bright, charming interior design. Throwing out the assumption that all steakhouses have to be outfitted in dark tones, Delmonico strays toward a simple yet vibrant décor. The main dining room’s vaulted ceiling curves up between the columns of the room, and the tables, walls and ceilings all have a gold-and-brown hue to them. The lounge area feels wide open, with groups of low-to-the-ground chairs huddled together to create an increased sense of space. If you look up to the middle of the ceiling here, you’ll see a tall opening with a handful of globe lights hanging down. And the walls aren’t exactly walls — floor-to-ceiling windows and doors fill the front wall of the lounge, which exudes a pleasant gold hue that’s offset by the clean lines of the windows and chairs. The lounge doesn’t have the same columns as the main dining room, which helps contrast the rooms even further; whereas the main dining room includes pockets of privacy and feels more intimate, the lounge focuses on openness and shared space. But between the two spaces, we think you’ll be able to find an area at Delmonico that works just right for you — and even if you don’t, there’s a special table on the other side of the wine cellar and even a chef’s table that can help make any meal that much more special.

Does Delmonico Steakhouse have a bar?
You can’t miss the bar at Delmonico Steakhouse. When you come in the front entrance, the bar and lounge will be on your left; but if you’re coming from The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino, you’ll walk by the open and spacious lounge and bar area, where you’ll be able to peer in through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The bar is made of a light-colored wood and a marble countertop, with open, light-colored wood cabinets holding all the liquor behind the bar. Unlike most steakhouses, Delmonico boasts a more open, lighter feel to it, so the color scheme and décor in the lounge fit right in with that general vibe. The bar itself is rather cozy, housing just six chairs sidled up to the marble top. You’ll also see three high cabinets behind the bar that can only be reached by a small ladder, sort of like an old-school bookshop. But instead of reaching for books, the bartender at Delmonico can mix you up a classic cocktail — or even serve you a full meal without having to leave the homey bar. -

What are desserts like at Delmonico Steakhouse?
Delmonico Steakhouse wouldn’t be an Emeril Lagasse property if it didn’t have a sufficient number of rich desserts — all you have to do is figure out which one will complete your dining experience at the Las Vegas outpost. The restaurant’s signature dessert is Emeril’s banana cream pie, which comes with caramel sauce, chocolate shavings and whipped cream. Other treats include local peppermint profiteroles with warm chocolate fudge and peppermint syrup; bourbon brioche bread pudding with brown butter pecan ice cream and candied pecans; and the Delmonico chocolate layer cake with chocolate pudding, coconut ice cream and toasted almonds, just to name a few. The Las Vegas steakhouse also offers a selection of artisanal cheeses for $20, so you can transition your way from the savory to the sweet. Delmonico Steakhouse brings you the best of classic steakhouse cuisine with a punch of New Orleans flair. You’ll find the dessert menu gives you enough options to end any meal on an exquisite note. -

Delmonico Steakhouse does have a kids menu, but it’s not printed with the rest of the restaurant’s lunch and dinner offerings.

Is Delmonico Steakhouse a romantic restaurant?
We think Delmonico Steakhouse is a romantic restaurant, as long as The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino or The Palazzo Resort Hotel Casino aren’t hosting conventions. Convention-goers tend to flow into the Las Vegas restaurant during large events, so there might be more of hustle and bustle than you’d like on your romantic evening. But if romance is what you seek, the Las Vegas steakhouse can certainly accommodate. All it takes is reserving table 101, which is on the other side of the restaurant’s wine cellar and away from all the high-traffic areas. The increased privacy and added ambience of the wine cellar create your own private dining space that lets you enjoy Delmonico’s creole-influenced cuisine in peace. And for a more relaxed beginning to your meal, be sure to check out Delmonico’s lounge area — you really can’t miss it — where low-set chairs and an open space make for great conversation. -

What are the five best things to order at Delmonico Steakhouse?
Delmonico Steakhouse, the Las Vegas restaurant of famed chef Emeril Lagasse, mixes the tastes of the Big Easy with classic steakhouse fare. With that in mind, here’s our list of the five best things to order at Delmonico:
1. Rib eye. This bone-in cut might be the most expensive entrée on the menu, but for the money, you get a charbroiled and dry-aged cut, seasoned with creole spices and served with maître d’ butter. Carnivores, bring your appetites.
2. BBQ shrimp. This New Orleans specialty, the handiwork of chef Emeril Lagasse, might make you forget about the turf fare and stick to the surf. Plus, it’s perfectly complemented by a petite rosemary buttermilk biscuit.
3. Caesar salad. Though many steakhouses are forgetting the tradition, Delmonico prepares its Caesar salad tableside for two — the way it was meant to be.
4. Lobster sliders. This lunch option takes decadent Maine lobster and combines it with a citrus aioli and celery leaves for another seafood specialty. It’s served next to a pile of old bay spiced fries.
5. Banana cream pie. One of Emeril’s favorites, and once you taste this treat, it will surely be one of yours, too. -

What is the menu like at Delmonico Steakhouse?
The menu at Delmonico Steakhouse won’t lead you astray. Along with classic steakhouse fare like dry-aged steaks and prime cuts, the Las Vegas restaurant serves a creole-influenced menu that sets it apart from other steakhouses. You’ll see that creole influence in both the main entrées and in the little touches that are added to each dish. For example, Emeril’s BBQ shrimp starter is available for both lunch and dinner, giving you a standalone taste of New Orleans cuisine; while the signature steaks, such as the bone-in rib eye, come served with creole seasoning and maître d’ butter. Just that added touch makes Delmonico’s steaks stand out, and when you combine them with one of the delicious starters or decadent desserts — say, a Caesar salad prepared tableside and the signature banana cream pie — you’ll have a meal on your hands that runs the full gamut of creole-influenced steakhouse cuisine. -

What is the price range for a meal at Delmonico Steakhouse?
Since Delmonico Steakhouse serves both lunch and dinner, the price of a meal depends on what time of day you come to the Las Vegas restaurant. For lunch, nothing on the menu costs more than $20, with the steaks. For dinner, the most expensive entrée, the bone-in rib eye, costs $52 for a single person; while the chateaubriand, which is carved tableside, runs the gamut at $110 for two people. Otherwise, dinner entrées cost between $35 and $50.You’ll likely end up spending somewhere around $100 per person for dinner at Emeril Lagasse’s Las Vegas steakhouse, once you factor in wine, sides and dessert. But we think $100 is a pretty reasonable price point, considering the wonderful New Orleans-influenced cuisine you’ll enjoy at Delmonico.
