Brand Steakhouse

Me and my wife had steak and lobster there. The steak was cooked exactly the way I wanted( to perfection). The waiter was just perfect in fact I think my wife wanted to take the waiter where ever we went, to be you could say our travel waiter to serve us world wide. All waiters should model themselves after their waiters. It also helped to have attractive woman working there as well, that elevates the atmosphere. But the food was just perfect, I just wish I wasn't full, so I had a chance to try their desert. I will be back to conquer their steak for 6 with some friends of mine.

I had a great experience the first time I dined here in late 2008, when Brand was fairly new, but it took almost seven years for me to return in 2015. The reason for the delay, Brand gets lost in the crowd of steakhouses along the Las Vegas strip. That being said in my opinion it is still one of the better places to get a great steak. On this occasion, we came in a large group with reservations for dinner and were seated promptly in one of the semi-private rooms towards the back of the restaurant that holds a large rectangular dining room table with large plush chairs. The main server we had was extremely pleasant and very attentive. Service was excellent from start to finish. We ordered a few appetizers to start. The calamari was standard fair, crispy but nothing to write home about. We saved our appetites for the steak of course. We ordered two sizes of the “Ultimate Steak”, one for six and one for four. The steaks were large juicy bone-in porterhouse steaks that were pre-cut before serving. We also ordered a bunch of sides that included mushrooms, mac &cheese, cream spinach, gnocchi, and mashed potatoes. I have to say the steak was the real star of the show (as it should be), flavorful and tender, delicious! The sides on the other hand were not the most memorable, but still good accompaniments. Keep in mind prices are fairly steep when everything is said and done, but on the flip side you are paying for prime steak so indulge a little. My only negative, if you can count it as negative, is that Brand is located inside the Monte Carlo. The Monte Carlo isn’t a bad hotel if you will, but Brand can easily be placed in a higher tier hotel on the strip and perform even better. Nonetheless, Brand Steakhouse is a fine restaurant where you’ll get great food and great service, can’t really ask for more.
