Don's Prime? More like Don's Climb to the top of my list of favorite restaurants. I have ZERO notes--this was genuinely one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. All the food was absolutely divine--steaks, sides, appetizers, cocktails--YUM. The highlight was the service. Our servers made excellent recommendations and were absolutely hilarious. They were so kind and fun and gave us a fabulous Vegas experience. The restaurant itself is also beautiful! It was the perfect setting for our post-wedding celebration. read more

In my opinion this is the great new steakhouse on the strip - the whole meal was fantastic. We started with the seafood tower, which had all the usual suspects. All very fresh, tasty and well presented. Went with the chopped salad which is not a norm for me but a sleeper hit. Well presented and loved crispy strips and avocado on the top. The main was an American wagyu strip steak. Perfectly cooked, well seasoned and definitely a high quality cut of beef. The sides were phenomenal with a shout-out to the creamed corn with bacon. A must try! For dessert I went with the soft serve sundae. This was a treat as the ice cream was creamy with a perfect vanilla flavor. Loved all the side toppings that I could add myself. Finally, exceptional service - the waiters were super friendly and were not shy to share their recommendations. Will be back again! read more

I had one of the best steaks I've ever had in life!!! The Japanese A5 Wagyu steak with the Okinawan Sweet Potato is an absolute must if you visit Don's Prime in the @fontainebleaulasvegas. It tasted and melted like butter!!! The staff were extremely nice and accommodating. Since visiting Don's Prime, I've been dreaming about returning again just to experience the steak. As you walk in you're greeted by servers and quickly taken care of.

Great service, yummy food and really nice people! Reservations are a MUST. We were here on a Monday night and ate at 5 pm. After we left, the place was packed. It was just 2 of us so we shared. Classic Cesar salad, Bone-in Ribeye, Potato gratin and crispy brussel sprouts. Logan and Joe were amazing. They had funny stories and offered great suggestions. I wish we had saved room for dessert. We saw another table get Chocolate Mousse prepared table side!! They even have a smoked Smores type dessert. We had to walk off our meal, but when we came back around 8pm, the restaurant was so full! I guess, we will have to come back for dessert another time. read more

We come to Vegas few times a year and we had begun to think Vegas dining and service was on the decline, and maybe it is. This time we were here to celebrate our 35 year anniversary and decided to get off the strip and stay at Fountainbleau and have dinner at Don's Prime and WOW, excellent food with excellent service. We had three people serving our table and making sure we were happy with every detail. The lobster bisque was outstanding. Don's chopped salad was amazing and Filet mignon and lobster were perfectly prepared. Thank you for restoring our faith in Vegas fine dinning. read more

Don's Prime - Steakhouses Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

The wife and I were joined by two friends for dinner on a Saturday night at Don's Prime. We were on a mission to sample some of Las Vegas' best Tomahawk steak offerings from steakhouses across of the valley. Don's Prime inside the Fontainebleau was our first stop. Don's Prime is a beautiful space with a modern feel but a classic, retro look that felt like a nod to the Rat Pack era. Since the Don's Tomahawk, a 40 oz cut of dry-aged beef, was our centerpiece to the meal, we also had the Roasted Bone Marrow as a starter, and Creamed Spinach, Macaroni & Cheese, and Roasted Wild Mushrooms as our shared sides. We paired our meal with a couple of bottles of 2012 Chateau Malartic Lagraviere. Our meal started off with bread. The pretzel twist/roll was excellent. The bone marrow followed and was the best representation of roasted bone marrow that I've had in a long while. Our steak was brought out to our table and sliced table-side. It was cooked to our requested medium rare, perfectly seasoned, and was wonderfully tender and flavorful. I enjoyed all of the sides, but to varying degrees. I really enjoyed the creamed spinach topped with a fried egg and thought it was the best of the sides we ordered. The roasted mushrooms were good; no better, no worse than others that I've had. The mac & cheese, while still good, was probably my least favorite of the three sides. I liked the choice of Campanelle pasta as it really grabbed hold of the tasty white cheddar bechamel, but I prefer my mac & cheese to be a tad bit saucier. It ate a bit "dry". I won't lie. I wasn't expecting to find a bottle of wine that I'd want to drink at a price that I'd want to pay especially since Don's wine list was chock-full of the Napa cult favorites as well as the most sought-after names from Bordeaux, Burgundy, and beyond. Needless to say, I was very pleasantly surprised to find a wine that my wife and I love from a chateau that we had actually visited at a price that I found to be reasonable given Strip prices. I knew Don's Prime was going to be good, but the night exceeded my expectations. The food and wine service team was impeccable. The food was outstanding. The atmosphere was classy yet cool. Don's Prime proved to definitely not be a cheap night out, but I thought it was worth the splurge. read more

Another great experience at Dons Prime. Stacy made it extra special by remembering us and the Manager Mark was very welcoming and accommodating. As the menu has seasonal items we had to try the Spinach Gnocchi and it was very flavorful and we enjoyed it. Ending the meal with the table side mouse just adds to the extra special old school atmosphere. read more

Fontainebleau's Premier Steakhouse Don's steakhouse has great ambiance, and it hits you as you walk into the foyer with its chic bar on the right. It just invites you in with the lounge chairs, though it's a bit tight in a kinda cozy way. But how is the food as good a the reviews say it is? If you're the discerning and well-traveled steak lover like me, you may want to consider a few pro tips. Bottom line up front, Don's is great for the tableside show, but the more discerning palate may get a bit overwhelmed if ordering isn't done tactically. The Tomahawk. For $245, this is their premier cut. A wet aged steak, and unfortunately, it was not available as dry-aged. That said, the wet aging process coupled with the trendy beef tallow they throw on their makes for some juicy meat. The tallow (compare to Smith & Wollensky) and the finishing salt (didn't ask, but I assume Malden) is all part of the fancy but subdued table side carving service. Definitely gram-worthy stuff. But. The salt. The steak is already rubbed with some decent salty seasoning, but then the addition of the finishing salt sends the salt meter up pretty high. This makes for some serious salt headaches if you don't drink plenty of water and don't order the right sides. Can only recommend both without said finishing salt AND less salty sides. Be warned that the steak will cool pretty quickly and came out warm instead of hot (compare to Peter Luger's heated plate). Creamed spinach. Nice flavor and touch with a halved Scotch egg. However, too salty as a side to go with the tomahawk with finishing salt. Recommend only if you lose the finishing salt and pick a lower salt side to pair with it. Potato gratin. We debated this or the puree potatoes. This might be the worse option because it was too salty. Salt is not just in the cheese crust but throughout the potato itself. This tells me they added extra salt. Can only recommend if you get the tomahawk without the finishing salt. Do not recommend with the creamed spinach since it will be too salty together. Mushrooms. Must order because not saucy and very lightly salted. As such, you can pair this side with anything else. Mousse. Served table side, the spectacle is worth some pics. However, I cannot recommend because the mousse itself was a bit lacking in chocolatey flavor. Texture was more crumbly than expected, which is fine. But the issues lies in the toppings, which include cherries in a cherry sauce, a vanilla cream, and chocolate chips. Overall just too sweet and sugary and not enough authentic chocolate taste. Free bread. You get a nice pull apart bread with pepper and a pretzel bread -- also naturally salty. Tasty and buttery. Really buttery. Recommend. Overall, while I wanted so badly to at least rate Don's a four, it's really a solid 3. Service overall okay but nothing special. We had two different servers, which I thought was cool though. Because of the excessive salt and the so-so dessert, I can only give a so-so thumbs up. If you go here, please use caution in ordering. Maybe you'll get a different experience, but for reference, the table agreed that Peter Luger's kills this place -- which might explain why it's a touch harder to get a good table there anyway. read more

Service was great but the food was just alright. Not a big fan of the bread selection; the crab cake was delicious, Caesar salad was over dressed; rib eye was good but needed something to elevate it like a sauce, and the squash was eh. We got chocolate mousse for dessert which was thicker than expected but still good. read more

Don's Prime - Chocolate mousse - Steakhouses Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Delicious! First, I must start with our server, Mike! He was absolutely amazing and will be ranked one of my top servers of all times. We were seated in a cozy booth. The food was delicious and freshly prepared. I love that there was an option for smoked drinks, so my husband opted for a smoked old fashioned--great pour! Our steaks were tender, juicy, and seasoned well. Dessert was just okay, the whipped cream on the chocolate mousse was sad, more of watery milk and not fluffy, cloudy, whipped cream. The coffee was hot and freshly prepared. Thanks Don Prime for a great experience and to Mike, YOU ROCK! read more

What an awesome Vegas steakhouse! Despite being on the new side, it had very old school vibes. The somewhat dark, green booths and the lightening was very elegant and classy. Some music playing was additive and not noisy. The service was great. We had 2 severs and both were friendly and helpful. The meal starts with their free bread service. It was comprised of a pull apart style bread loaf and in addition, a soft pretzel bread rod. Both were good. The steak I had was just fantastic! I had a fillet and the Maillard reaction on the crust was perfection. Cooked perfectly and not too overly seasoned. Just the right amount of salinity. Wow! I also had had cut fries (they were good and very crispy, but a little greasy. We also had the asparagus which was good. I did also have a glass of wine which was good, albeit very expensive. For dessert we had a slice of the chocolate cake and it was very good. It had nice spongy layers and some creamy layers and the top was almost like a very thick and firm buttercream. It came with espresso gelato which was awesome. I liked it but next time I would get the table side chocolate mousse which I saw someone get which looked great. Overall, this is truly a top-tier steakhouse on the Vegas Strip. It is pricey, and so far the most expensive steakhouse we've been to, but it is an awesome dinner and will make for a memorable evening. read more

Located within the Fontainebleau, sits Don's Prime.... This place is totally a steak house with amazing cuts of beef, a spectacular bar and some very superb service! Came here on a busy Friday night during F1 weekend and was totally impressed by the overall vibe. I went with the snake river American Wagyu New York steak with some lobster Mac and bread, and couldn't be happier! When comparing to Papi steak, both are amazing but Don's is more of a quiet lowkey vibe that allows for more conversation over dinner. Overall, love it and highly recommended! read more

A very nice steakhouse. We had my bday dinner there. First time here and it will not be our last. We were staying at the hotel and wanted to enjoy a restaurant within the hotel. DP did not disappoint. It was warm and cozy restaurant as soon as you enter. The bar has plenty of seats if you did not have reservation or go for a drink. Service was perfect. We had James and Josep. The busboy was on point as well. The three of them did not miss a beat on the service for our table. We brought our own wine and corkage was $50 for 750ml. We like our 2018 Daou to enjoy with our steak. Although the steak was not completely as we liked it to be prepared, we did communicate it, and they removed the charge of the dessert for that hiccup. No issues at all. We had 6pm reservation and by the time we left, the restaurant was full of ppl. read more

Don's Prime does it again! Had some friends in town from TX, and they sure know their meat out there, so wanted to make sure I recommended a great experience. Don's did not disappoint. We started with the crab cake, which had good chunks of crab meat, but we all thought the flavoring with the orange/fennel salad and more of a pesto-esque sauce felt off. Regardless, we then had the Tomahawk, Lobster Mac & Cheese, potatoes au gratin, and broccolini and everything was incredible including the presentation of our feast. The ambiance is dark but not too dark that you can't see your food. And the noise level was just right. Servers partner up to tend to the tables which was excellent because my water was always full and the pace of service was just right (not too fast or slow). read more

I came back after 7 long months to enjoy another beautiful dinner here on Sunday Nov 24. Could this experience out do my last experience? It most certainly did! I did not put pictures up for this review as we ordered the same thing, however this time I was not on Keto, so I could enjoy that delicious bread and pretzel they serve...it was amazing. Hub and I got the 12 ounce filet, but this time they split it on two plates. We ordered a side order of peppercorn that was great and the whipped potatoes that I finally got to try...scrumptious!! Our service team was top notch..amazing..the young kid filling waters and clearing plates was charming and very sweet. We decided to save room for dessert and ordered the creme brûlée....this picture and dish deserves a rating for itself. The dessert was big...easily enough for two..it came with lemon cookies whipped cream and some of the freshest berries I have ever eaten. The brûlée itself was amazing..likely earning the now best ever one that I have ever had...and I have many. This place continues to amaze me...absolutely in my top 5 favorite places to eat in Las Vegas. read more

Best steak of my life, close second was a 3 star Michelin NIKU in Los Angeles. Snake River NY - wanted to finish every bite but was nice enough to share : ) Got the Oscar style but on the side so my son (who doesn't like seafood) could try the steak. Ended up taking Oscar style back to my room bc I couldn't get enough of this steak. Did I mention the steak was AMAZING. Did I mention get the Snake River NY. OMG!!!! Bread was awesome, so were the fries, but did I mention how great the steak was! Ok, go get the steak! I paired it with a glass of the French Cab which was a very nice and recommended pairing. Now... go get the steak! And say hi to Jennifer - she was so great! read more

What a great place with a delectable menu! From the starters to the main entree and everything in between! Their menu offers a surprising choice of main entree options! From Maine lobster, halibut, salmon and crab to chicken and steaks, the menu doesn't disappoint with options! Dim lighting in this restaurant creates a more romantic ambiance but, what a nice place for a business meeting or celebrating that special occasion! Friendly service, attentive without hovering but always there when you need them. The restaurant had plenty of staff on hand, which was wonderful to see. For me, this usually gives me a sense of ease that service won't be delayed due to a smaller staff. Enjoy! read more

What a fantastic experience! Went to Don's last night for dinner, we were seated promptly at a corner booth. The vibe was upscale, relaxed and had nice ambient lighting . Our server Kiara was awesome, it was our first time at the restaurant and Kiara took the time to outline the menu and options. We started with oysters (East & West) which was served with sauces including hot sauce. We also split the wedge salad, for our main course we ordered the sirloin med rare with the blue cheese crust, fries and asparagus. The food was cooked perfectly and we can't wait to return. read more

Thursday night, Guy's dinner and we stopped by Don's Prime with a party of 6...good times. A few of us arrived early and grabbed some cocktails at the showcase circle tower bar located to the right of the host stand. The tower had 6 shelves of very high-end bottles which made and the tower reached the vaulted ceiling. The dining area was open, gatsby high end vibes and dimly lit for the mood. Tables are close, so it may or may not be considered noisy. Nicole/Nikki was our main server, and she was fantastic. She was extremely knowledgeable on the menu and got us up to speed on the off-menu specials. Additionally, she was very friendly, professional and I was able to practice my tagalog with her. Very cool! We went family style this visit... Snake River Tomahawk Dover Sole Bone Marrow Au Gratin Potatoes Whipped potatoes Mushrooms Crab Cake Everything was fantastic. The dishes were prepped well, cooked perfectly and definitely social media friendly. Kudos to the kitchen for getting the dishes out timely. This is an excellent restaurant when you're ready to dress up and throw down some cash for a nice dinner out. I'm definitely recommending it next time I'm out for work. I'll be back sooner versus later...cheers! read more

After weeks of research, we decided on Don's Prime to celebrate my best friend's 50th birthday. Best decision ever. The mood inside restaurant is everything you want a good steakhouse to be. Classy, moody, rich roomy booths with beautiful lighting fixtures. The staff immediately welcomed us on a busy Saturday evening. The night was an absolute amazing experience from beginning to end. We ordered the iceberg wedge salad and Don's Chopped Salad. They were fresh and delicious. We shared a medium 40 oz. Don's Tomahawk. The meat was superb, tender and flavorful! The table side service was excellent. I also ordered the Seared Diver Scallops that were just so buttery and seasoned to perfection. For our sides, we tried three cheese potato gratin and another star plate... Lobster Mac and Cheese. Our drinks were on point. For the finale, we ordered the table side whipped chocolate mousse and the Elvis Pie. Now I must say, their chocolate mousse, will bring me back very soon!!! The cherries, pistachio nuts, and vanilla cream! Woah, highly recommend for a special celebration! read more

In an ultra-competitive steakhouse market, while good Don's falls short. At a minimum, a top steakhouse needs to get the temperature right on a steak. I ordered the rib cap medium rare, it came out medium well (not even close). It should have been caught by the kitchen and not even sent out. Worse, when I spoke with a waiter, his first comment was cut it in the middle. While I did and the middle was also medium well, that never should have been the response, why would I even want a steak where parts are overcooked. I could tolerate this situation at a mid price or lower restaurant, but not a premium steakhouse. Outside of this experience, the meal overall was good but not great. The lobster bisque looked beautiful (lobster pastry on top) and had nice lobster, but the flavor was good but not particularly complex. I will say the rib cap, once a medium rare one was brought out, was cooked perfectly and had a nice taste. The corn and broccolini were okay but not great. The real star, surprisingly, was the chocolate mouse dessert, prepared tableside, tasted great, very interesting and good flavors, and one portion was enough for four. If the steak came out perfectly cooked the first time, I'd say four stars, but you can't get that temp wrong and the rest was not good enough to overcome. read more

We arrived for dinner and were seated quickly. The atmosphere was comfortable and the service prompt and pleasant. Our team of servers was friendly and helped guide us through our experience, which started with cocktails from the bar--the bar has a decent selection of bourbon and scotch, and the lemon drops were perfectly mixed and chilled. A great start! The bread service arrived and while the pretzel bread was great with the perfect amount of salt, butter, and garlic, the monkey bread was beyond amazing--crunchy and pillowy with cheese and garlic--just wow. So good! Both couples at our table split the Don's Chopped Salad, and it was a mix of vegetables with a delicate vinaigrette topped with fried shoestring potatoes that were a surprising delight. Our main course all featured steak--and the standout was the Snake River farms American Waygu New York strip, perfectly cooked and wonderful flavor. The bone-in ribeye and bleu cheese crusted filet were also great. The plain filet was not to par, and though the crust on the steak was great, overall it was bland and dry. We ordered all the accompanying sauces and among them the chimichurri and creamy horseradish were favorites. We also asked for a side of fresh horseradish but it was dry and lacked flavor. For sides we ordered the jumbo lump crab cake from the appetizer menu along with creamed corn and butter-whipped potatoes. The crab cake was densely packed with delicate crab and a perfect side to the steaks. The vegetables weren't as good, unfortunately; the corn was okay but the potatoes were very loose and disappointing. For dessert, we shared the crème brûlée. It was served with madeleine cookies and the berries and whipped cream on the side, as requested. It was a nice finish to our dinner. The best part, though? Our servers threw in some of that monkey bread in our leftovers! read more
