    My husband and I had dinner at Mae Daly's in Las Vegas, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. From the warm greeting at the door to the attentive service throughout the evening, everything felt welcoming and polished. The restaurant has a cozy, classic Las Vegas atmosphere that feels both charming and timeless. The menu features elevated Americana cuisine, and the steaks were excellent. We chose the prix fixe menu, available with the 5 PM reservation, which included a salad, entrée, two sides, and dessert -- a great value and a perfect way to experience several menu items. A special thank you to our waitress, Taylor, and bartender, Tommy, who made the night even more enjoyable with their friendly and attentive service. If you're looking for a classic Las Vegas dining experience with great food and exceptional hospitality, Mae Daly's is definitely worth a visit.

    Went to Mae Daly's around 530pm on a Saturday. The restaurant was pretty empty. The entrance was a little confusing. There were 2 places that could have been the host stand, but no one was there to check us in. We waited a few seconds and a woman on a knee scooter came to check us in. She asked if we'd like the bar area or the dining room, we chose the bar. It took a bit for someone to bring us drink menus, we ordered Sazerac's. They are our favorite, and it's hard to find a place that makes them right. They were perfect! Our server brought us dinner menus, however, online, it showed a 5 o'clock menu available for our reservation. ( 89.00) We asked if it was still available and he said yes, and then brought a different menu over. My husband and I both ordered the special menu. It was quite a lot of food. I got the chopped salad ( very fresh and very tasty), an 8oz filet ( perfectly cooked at medium rare) 2 sides( I asked only for 1 because it was way too much food) mashed potatoes, and a desert ( cheesecake) which I ended up declining at the end. ( again, too much food for me!) My husband got the same entree, but a Caesar salad, creamed spinach, fries and a chocolate mousse. Everything was delicious! What a great deal for that amount of food! The service was good, the food was great, the music playing in the background was perfect for the theme. We will likely be back! Definitely recommend!

    We were just walking by when we stumbled upon this restaurant, zero research. I think this was the best meal I've ever had! The steak was charred and cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were truly the best I've ever had. Service was very nice and friendly, though she didn't know the full capability of the bar. The bartender really knew what he was doing. We got lemon drop martinis and raspberry lemon drop and they were just perfect, again the best I've had. The cornbread was dry and overcooked that's my only criticism. Loved the wall colors and ambiance.

    Mae Daly's is an old-school steakhouse located close to the Strat in a standalone building. The service is absolutely fantastic and my steak was prepared perfectly. My visit to Mae Daly's was a great overall experience.

    I came to Vegas for a Tennis event and wanted to go to a place that I haven't been to yet. I wanted some where nice but not too far priced. After looking at the reviews and the pricing , availability I came up with Mae Daly's. The place wasn't too far down the Strip which I had to worry about since I didn't rent a car this time. Short trip. I took a Lyft here and it was an average price to get here. It has a parking lot so there is parking If you need it. The place is right down from the Strat. When I walked into the place.. wow it was really old school and very romantic. I loved it and so did the wife. The look was really classy and stylish. I of course had made a reservation and this was just at dinner time. 6PM. There were a lot of people already here. The hostess gave us three tables to pick from all of them close to the door which isn't a nice place to sit. However, the seat we did pick was a love seat against the front window. It was so romantic and lovely. Perfect for a night out with the wife. Our waitress introduced herself and asked what kind of water we wanted. I asked for a Scotch and or Cognac list. I didn't see anything that tickled my fancy so i asked if they had Remy and if they had XO, neat of course. She brought me back a snifter. We were eating all day so we picked light. The wife wasn't to hungry. I got the bone in ribeye and she got the mushroom risotto. Everything was fantastic and so flavorful. Just the right size for us that night. It didn't look like much but we were stuffed. Had to look at the dessert menu. our server recommended the Tre Leches Cake. it was one of their favorites and of course scratch made. It was wonderful. Loved every bite. This place was perfect and we had such a good time. We will have to come again and get more to eat hahaha. They have a large bar room but I didn't venture over to it. This is a lovely place.

    Cheese cake with fruit atop that tasted like candy - YUM

    First off, the valet parking is free! Inside, you are walking into a visual feast for your eyes. The decor is visually elegant. The beautifully appointed chandeliers are fabulous. This restaurant appears upscale and yet welcoming to all. Some people were very casually dressed and some were very dressy. Now to the culinary delight! Tomas, the chef, was remarkable. We were greeted by Taylor, a most delightful and attentive service professional - tending to our every need. The owner, Richard came around to each and every table to greet us and ask if there was anything else we desired. Very rare in today's world! He was warm and personable. Now the food: I would say it was exceptional. Starting with either corn bread or croissant and butter. Then we had the most delectable giant shrimp cocktail. Then we were served a rack of different bacon - cooked to perfection! We were give a small taste of cilantro and shrimp and lobster bisque - impeccable. By this time, I wish I hadn't ordered an entree! My friends all had salad , which, in itself, could have been a main meal. The filet was tremendous. I had a huge piece of salmon in a butter sauce that was sautéed. The chicken in a special red sauce was marvelous. Needless to say, you can't go wrong visiting this little gem of a restaurant across from the Strat on the Las Vegas Blvd. I rate this restaurant A+++. We were celebrating my good friend, Rosie's, birthday. The special vanilla cannolis and the cheese cake also was a big surprise! Again, the owner clearly took pride in creating a welcoming, well-run establishment. We WILL return. Please arrive hungry!!!

    Old fashion

    My husband and I found Mae Daly's completely by chance, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by how beautiful the restaurant is. The décor, bar, seating, and overall atmosphere make you feel like you've stepped into old-school Las Vegas with a touch of elegance and charm. What really stood out was the service. Every single person treated us like royalty. The staff was attentive, welcoming, and genuinely seemed to care about our experience. We even had the opportunity to meet the owner, who was incredibly friendly and took the time to talk with us. That personal touch made the evening even more memorable. Tommy was exceptional! The whole staff was! And then there was the food. The steak was a classic steak done right, but somehow it was one of the best steaks we've ever had. Perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and incredibly tender, it reminded us that sometimes simplicity executed perfectly is what makes a meal unforgettable. The roasted chicken was just as impressive--cooked to perfection, juicy, flavorful, and about as close to perfect as you can get. Even the asparagus was something out of this world. It's rare for a side dish to stand out, but every bite was absolutely delicious. There wasn't a single thing on the table that disappointed. We found ourselves talking about the food long after dinner was over. The entire experience felt special from start to finish. We were joking that it felt like something out of a classic mafia movie because the place has such an amazing old-Vegas vibe. We definitely plan on coming back for my birthday. If you're looking for incredible food, outstanding service, and an unforgettable atmosphere, Mae Daly's is a must-visit. We can't wait to return.

    4.5 stars rounded up to 5. Quality/Quantity - I got the 5 o'clock pre-fixed dinner. What a great deal, $89! Good deal especially since the 8oz fillet alone is $79 on the regular menu. Chopped Salad - I think I should have gotten the caesar salad. After the fact, I read many good reviews about the caesar salad. The chopped salad was not bad, just not special. My wife ended up eating most of it. Prime Filet Mignon 8oz - Medium rare, cooked perfectly. Well, it may have been a little more rare than I would normally prefer, but this was cooked so tender that it melted in my mouth! I would happily get this again! The shoestring fries and cauliflower were also cooked perfectly. And I do not even like cauliflower?!?! NY Cheesecake - My choice of dessert, and my favorite of the 3 desserts. My wife got the following: Mediterranean Branzino - Again, cooked perfectly! Even the crispy skin was so good. Chocolate Mousse Cake - My wife enjoyed this. As light eaters, we had a hard time finishing all the desserts. Complimentary corn bread and croissants - Both of which were fresh and amazing! My wife actually asked for seconds. Complimentary Cannolis - Good. Glass of Daou Cabernet to wash my steak down. Ambiance - Huge location. Both indoor and outdoor seating. Bar seating, etc. We got a very nice private booth but it was next to the front door. So every time someone came in and out, we felt the LV night COLD breeze... Next time, I will request to be further away from the door; I am sure they would have been happy to accommodate it. Nice decor; see pictures. Semi open kitchen. Dress code = Vegas casual. Open 5 days a week from 5pm till 10pm or midnight. Closed Sunday & Monday. Clean restrooms. Service - The waiter was so professional. Sorry, I forgot his name. The door greeter was also friendly. The manager was welcoming. The owner even stopped by for a second to say hi. Free valet parking; we did not use it. We took ride share. Price - $175 + generous tip. Good value for what we got. Owner Comment - Congrats on your new restaurant since June of 2024.

    Bacon Sampler - must try! $35

    I'm really torn on this one! Let's start from the beginning...plan to Valet Park (no self parking). Didn't have my Tesla key with me so was allowed to park it myself. Valet guy was extremely friendly and nice about it. Outside shares a lot with a lodge of sort (old motel) and across from the Strat so not the cleanest areas of town. Several homeless wandering the area (sad problem in Vegas). Once inside were a bit confused where to check in. Lady with a rolling leg brace thingy was to the left and didn't exactly acknowledge us but we determined she was the hostess. A gentlemen came toward and greeted us, then she said hi and took my name to verify our reservation. Seated at a cushy couch with big table we had to push around to get in/out (restroom visits, etc). While nice for a lounger, not the greatest to eat a meal at. Place is decorated perfectly, very clean and lovely ambiance. Staff was ver friendly BUT...for a Saturday at 5:30-7:30 it felt they were understaffed. The gentlemen that treated us is clearly the manager, doubling as bartender, tripling as water boy. Ok, the food... Bread service - this one is weird. One piece of cornbread and one croissant per person. Odd pairing indeed and even more odd bread choice for a steakhouse. Bacon Sampler - is a must try! 5 different flavored strips + a bacon jam. Excellent. French Onion Soup - it's different. Heavy rosemary/thyme flavor profile. So, very savory, not sweet at all like most French onions. Not bad, just different. Reminded me of a turkey dinner soup. Wild mushroom side - my wife's thing, not mine. She said it wasn't a $15 side, just OK. The steak - we went for the wet aged boneless ribeye. Couple things....the COOK was perfectly as ordered, medium rare plus. Nailed it! The seasoning....another weird one. It was good but the strange thing, the taste of the ends reminded me of the smell if you've ever followed a big rig full of cows on the highway or driven near Kettleman City on I-5 in CA. the center pieces were great! Dessert - chocolate soufflé. Good! Cannoli - provided free, even better! Cocktails - good. Nothing to write home about. Overall friendly service, nice atmosphere, and decent food. But didn't wow me and not sure what all the hype is I've seen online. Here's my listing of steak houses we've tried thus far in our ranking of best to worse in prior 18 months, primarily based on food quality. Service has been pretty outstanding at all. Don's Prime @Fontainebleau Barry's Downtown Prime @Circa (Fremont) Oscar's @Plaza Hotel (Fremont) Joel's Chophouse (West Sahara) Peter Luger @Caesars Hugo's Cellar @4 Queens The Steak House (Circus Circus) Golden Steer (West Sahara) Mae Daly's (near Strat) Herbs and Rye (West Sahara) Bavette's @Park MGM Echo and rig in Tivoli Village (Summerlin)

    I'm struggling tremendously with this review because I REALLY wanted to love this place and had high hopes going in as it's an independent non-casino restaurant in a hopefully gentrifying north-Strip area. Unfortunately the food flavors were not up to par in many areas and the price point definitely isn't supported by the food experience. To start with the very good aspects - the service is phenomenal. We dined with another couple on a Tuesday night and the staff was so welcoming and friendly. Everyone greeted us with a smile and they went out of their way to be attentive in every way from promptly clearing plates, delivering food, filling water glasses etc. The restaurant interior is in a super cute speakeasy theme which we loved. For the purposes of this review I'm only going to comment on the food I ordered as I didn't taste everything on the table. They offer a complimentary bread service of cornbread and a croissant which is always appreciated. I ordered the French onion soup as an appetizer and it was a lovely presentation encased in lots of delicious melty cheese. However the soup itself was absolutely flavorless. It didn't taste bad per se, it was just so watery I had to dump copious amounts of salt into it from the shaker on the table just to get anything remotely resembling what should be a deep unctuous broth. For my entree I ordered the salmon and I advised the server to please request the kitchen to not overcook it. When in arrived and I took my first bite I could immediately tell it was dry and way overdone. Just a big disappointment for a $48 piece of fish. I will say that one of the other people at our table ordered the filet and I was able to try a piece and it was quite good. I guess it's my fault for ordering fish at a steakhouse... The sides we ordered were hit or miss. Mushrooms were well prepared and actually seasoned properly and the roasted carrots had a nice glaze with a crunchy nutty garnish. The baked potato was a baked potato - nothing special and the steak fries were not good. Brutally undercooked and tasted like they could have come frozen out of a bag. For dessert we shared the chocolate soufflé which was just ok. Again it lacked a ton of flavor. They also served each of us a complementary mini cannoli which, ironically, was probably the tastiest thing I ate all night. Again I hate to leave a negative review for a locals place like this but the food, while utilizing quality ingredients for the most part, is lacking in flavor to the point that we won't return. Dinner for four was $567 before tax and tip which included three cocktails, two glasses of wine, four each of appetizers, entrees and sides and one shared dessert. Honestly if the food had been seasoned properly it would be a fairly reasonable total.

    Took my husband here for his birthday and we were not disappointed. The ambiance is amazing, you can tell each piece of decor was selected with care. The food was out of this world! Definitely try the bacon flight as an appetizer. Depending on which table you sit at, you can watch the chef flambe your food! The staff was very nice and accommodating for my food allergies. The cocktails were delicious. The owner even came by and cracked some jokes that had us rolling It's a little pricey, but that's to be expected for a steak house of this caliber. You get on-Strip atmosphere for off-Strip prices. Absolutely worth every penny! We'll be back for another date night!

    Mae Daly's is one of those rare places in Las Vegas that manages to feel both upscale and genuinely welcoming. A locals best kept secret. The atmosphere is warm and classic, with the kind of comfortable elegance that makes it perfect for anything from a nice dinner out to celebrating something special. The food is outstanding. Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly and clearly made with quality ingredients. The steaks are seriously the BEST steaks in town! The sides and appetizers are just as impressive. When you go, definitely try the bacon tasting! (Can't believe I didn't get a picture of it!) It's a fun and surprisingly elevated way to start your evening. With different flavors and preparations that set the tone for the whole meal, you'll thank me later. What really stood out though was the service. The staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable without being overbearing. They made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. The owner even came by to introduce himself. In a city full of restaurants, Mae Daly's stands out for getting the basics right: great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to and recommending to friends.

    Upon entering we were greeted immediately and seated promptly. We started off with a Bottle of Clicquot, a Seafood tower, Oyster Rockefeller, Summer Black Truffle Risotto and Bacon Tasting. The wasabi tobiko on the raw oysters was good. For Our Entree's we had Dry Aged Ribeye Bone-In 18oz with Mash & Spinach. We Definitely will be back as we enjoyed our meals.

    Is there a dress code?

    It is a nice restaurant so I would recommend smart casual or dress up a little of you are sitting in the restaurant. It will add to the experienced. In the bar area only or super early dinner, nice neat casual.

There isn't a large parking lot so highly recommend taking a ride share or taxi. They do accept reservations for dinner, but you have to call after 4pm. Most people just walk in and they seat people pretty darn quickly. Where does the bubble bath come in? It's one of their delicious cocktails! Very light, refreshing and tasty, it was a wonderful complement to the hot honey halibut, broccoli cheddar soup, and pickle fries I enjoyed. Note that if they say your entree comes with soup, they don't mean a little cup-it's a huge bowl! The Peppermill takes a team approach to service. After being seated you will be greeted by an assistant server that will get your waters and any non-alcoholic drinks. A cocktail waitress will come by a little later for any alcoholic drink orders. You will also have a separate server that will take food orders and bring your check. Before you leave, make sure to check out the Fireside Lounge-the entrance is right past the bathrooms! Sunken seating, velvet chairs, oh my!

Usually it's just to fly out of Las Vegas for a work trip. This time though, I was in area for the US Post office. Looking for nearby places to eat, I saw that Smoke & Fire was only 10 minutes away! My husband and I stopped by for dinner around 3:30 P.M on a Friday at Smoke & Fire. The restaurant is located near South Pecos Road and East Russell Road. There was plenty of parking spots available. As I walked inside the restaurant, a team member had greeted us and let us know that it was open seating. There were only a few other customers inside the restaurant at the time we had dinner. There was plenty of tables inside and outside the restaurant though! TVs were situated throughout the restaurant. There was a variety of sports games playing. When we sat at our table, the team member brought over menus and asked if we'd like anything to drink while we looked through the menu. She also went through any dietary restrictions and some of their highlights at the restaurant, specifically, Smoke & Fire is known for their blueberry chicken sandwich. There are other options on their menu though, like BBQ items! Meat platters: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, Brisket, Smoked Ribs, Hot Links, smoked Chicken Quarters. Sandwiches: Chicken Sandwiches, Brisket Sandwich, Donut Smashed Burger (Seasonal), Sliders Chicken and Waffles, Street Style Tacos, Chicken Tenders and more! After looking through the menu, we ultimately decided on the following 3 Meat Platter: Pulled Chicken, Pulled Pork, and Brisket with Mac N Cheese/Sweet Potato Tots The World Famous Blueberry Chicken Sandwich: Pepper Jack Cheese, Housemade Blueberry Jam, blueberry aioli, and Jalapeno. The service was super quick. I don't think we waited longer than 10 minutes for our meal. It was nice that our meal was served in to go containers as well! The highlight of the meal was the blueberry chicken sandwich. The chicken was juicy and tender. The blueberry aioli and the jam was scrumptious. This was a first time having a sandwich like this before! I would come back to Smoke & Fire just to get the sandwich. The BBQ pulled pork, pulled chicken and brisket was good. I enjoyed the mac n cheese and the sweet potato tots though! I don't normally see sweet potato tots so I just had to try it out! They were super crispy and packed with flavor. The food was yummy here and the service was fantastic! If I'm in the area again, I would stop by Smoke & Fire to have another meal. I think next time though, I am going to have to try out their pulled pork burger!

    What a great spot right in Chinatown in the same complex with one of my fave Thai places Lamaii…read more Cozy intimate feeling spot with a small but inventive menu. We decided to go with the tasting menu tonight since we hadn't been before and wanted a good sampling of what they had to offer. It did not disappoint. Not a single dud on that menu. Faves were the Oyster Duo, Octopus, Foie Gras and the Por Flank. Every single dish was flavorful and well seasoned. The service was outstanding and attentive with one tiny hiccup, not big enough to take a star away. I had specifically noted on our reservation that it was our Anniversary and it would have been nice if it was recognized but was not. Wasn't looking for any freebies but would have been a bit more special if mentioned. Not end of the world but a bit disappointing. All in all will be back to try our favorites again on the a la carte menu.

    My son surprised me for Mother's Day by booking a reservation for 4 at Sparrow + Wolf. After…read morereviewing the menu, we decided to go somewhere else that had more options to accommodate everyone in our group. He canceled the reservation on Mother's Day and was fully aware of the stated $25 per person cancellation fee ($100 total). Unfortunately, the restaurant charged his card three separate charges totaling $250 ($100, $100, and $50). He contacted the restaurant and was initially told the refund would be processed within 3 days. After following up again 3 days later, he was told the employee who handles refunds was out of the country and that he should not have been told 3 days. He then received an email from Thaddeus confirming the cancellation fee was only $25 per person and stating he could use the $100 as credit toward a future visit if he showed the email at the restaurant. However, the additional $150 in charges was never addressed. My son replied to the email asking about the extra charges and still has not received a response 3 days later. At this point, he is handling the matter through his bank's fraud department. Very disappointing experience, especially with the lack of communication and accountability. I would not recommend this place.

    My family and I visited for the first time on May 9, 2026. We had a reservation for 10AM when they…read moreopen. There was already people lining up, which is always a good sign. We were seated promptly and the staff were delightful. We got a table near the kitchen which was great because you can take in all the activity going on between the kitchen staff - I loved watching them work together to create masterpiece dishes! We ordered the cherry cinnamon french toast, the proper breakfast, crab & spinach benedict, the meyer lemon pancakes and the housemade quiche. Each one was superb! Beautiful presentation and more importantly delicious. We could not stop raving about our great experience. We wanted to go back the next day. We will definitely make this a regular when in the Vegas area!

We didn't have a reservation but arrived at opening and nabbed two spots at the bar. What a treat for us! We were waited on by attentive and personable bar staff who made great recommendations based on our likes and dislikes. We shared the Peach + Prosciutto pizza (major, major yummm!), Italian Chopped Salad, and Tortellini. There was more than enough for both of us and we even had another meal or two to take home. The food was fresh, the produce was ripe and perfect (especially the tomatoes in the salad!). Truly, no notes and no complaints! The restaurant remained busy the entire time we were there, however, the ambiance allowed for my girlfriend and I to easily converse. And while staff remained busy, they never strayed too far or left us waiting long. I can't wait for my next visit!

    Adeline our server was AWESOME!…read more It can be a bit dim inside so for those who wear glasses, this can pose a bit of a problem hahahaha I was having a hard time reading the menu but Adeline saw me struggling and politely asked if I needed reading glasses since they have some and Thank You, Thank You because I could finally read the menu! Throughout our meal she stayed attentive. I ordered the full GRAND COBB SALAD with chicken, bacon, avocado, tomatoes, bleu cheese, and grated egg. Boy oh boy was it good! Fresh ingredients with the delicious and tangy Roasted Tomato Vinaigrette on the side (my request)! It's enough for 2 meals. The sourdough bread in a basket fulfilled my craving for a carb. Warm and cut into thick slices with butter on the side paired well with the salad.

Seating was quick, water refills infrequent, service checked in often until food dropped. Compatriots had ordered a double smash cheeseburger and a southwest chicken salad. I had gotten the slow roasted beets, and the house green salad. Nothing really wowed in this case. I'd say I like the fries and the slow roasted beets. The cream sauce balanced the beets well with occasional nuts for texture. The house green salad was more lettuce than anything else. The southwest chicken salad, the meat was a bit dry. Still was an easy meal and simple to plan around. Worked well in a pinch.

Both were very good and the sandwich came with slightly spicy tots. It was the perfect amount of food and the bar seating was comfortable. We've been here a few times but haven't been back in too many years. That'll change now and we'll be back sooner. Glad to see that this place is still here since so many other restaurants we visited once are now gone.

The waitstaff were dressed very casual, jeans and t-shirt casual. Although the food is upscale, everything else about this place seems very casual diner like. We could even see most of the work going on in the small kitchen. Mostly shareable plates... Our table chose the deviled eggs with caviar - these were a hit! Dynamite shrimp, most at the table liked these, they were spicy and the flavor was decent, but I just felt like the sauce made the breading a bit soggy and it wasn't a favorite of mine. Pork Belly - This had a buffalo sauce on it, which I wasn't too excited about at first, but it worked better than I expected. Wish it was just a little crispier but it was tender and I enjoyed it. Oxtail risotto - this one had mixed reviews from the table, I really enjoyed it. The flavor was good. There's only a small amount of meat and it's shredded into the risotto. Overall the consistency was a little weird, very thick and almost sticky/dry, plus the dark color. They had a steak on the menu and the flavor was great, one of the pricier menu items but it was a good share. My wife ordered a burger without the bun. She said the patty was well over-cooked and so it was pretty dry. They don't offer gluten-free buns or bread - bummer. The service was generally prompt, but seemed uncoordinated at times. For example, it seemed our waitress was also handling a very large party outside on the patio, and randomly the hostess would bring us a drink refill (hostess stand was right beside our table). That's good in a way, they are all a team, but she also picked up my plate and silverware after only the first appetizer - mind you they bring everything out as it's ready, so don't expect the whole table to eat together, you are expected to share! When I asked if she could replace my silverware, she grabbed a fork and knife and handed to me, but they weren't rolled in a napkin or anything, just barehanded me some silverware... anyway, I thought that was odd. Overall, the food had some bright spots and perhaps worth a lunch if you are downtown. I probably wouldn't seek it out again, but I'm not mad about the meal we had either.
