The story
Vic & Anthony's Steakhouse traces its origins to a deliberate act of discovery. National restaurateur Tilman Fertitta and his father Vic traveled across North America, experiencing the best steakhouses the continent had to offer. From that research came a clear philosophy: a carefully crafted menu, an extensive wine selection, impeccable service, and an atmosphere that manages to feel both elegant and genuinely comfortable. The Las Vegas location, situated on East Fremont Street, carries that founding vision into one of the most competitive dining cities in the world.
That commitment to the wine program earned the restaurant a Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence — a recognition that reflects the seriousness with which the cellar is curated alongside the kitchen.
The Las Vegas menu is built around USDA Prime beef, with cuts ranging from an 8 oz Filet Mignon to a 40 oz grass-fed Tomahawk, and a dedicated section for Japanese Wagyu — including A5 Kobe from Hyogo Prefecture and an A5 Wagyu Filet Mignon from Kagoshima. For those who want to push further, Snake River Farms American Wagyu Rib Cap rounds out the premium beef offering.
Seafood holds its own alongside the steakhouse classics. The menu lists Cold Water Australian Rock Lobster Tail, live Maine Lobster by the pound, Alaskan King Crab Legs broiled in herb butter, Seared Scallop over celery root risotto, and a Shrimp & Crab Martini with kimchi slaw — a nod to the kitchen's willingness to move beyond the expected. Starters like Steak Tartare with Dijon and capers, A5 Japanese Wagyu Carpaccio, and a composed Seafood Tower set the tone before the main event.
Sauces and complements — Béarnaise, Port Peppercorn, Seared Foie Gras, Jumbo Lump Crab Oscar — allow guests to tailor each plate precisely.
The restaurant describes its environment as "spectacular" and "world-class," but the details behind that claim are concrete: private dining rooms suited to rehearsal dinners, business meetings, and formal receptions; a cocktail program; outdoor seating; and live music. The dress code signals that this is a room where the occasion matters. Whether the table is for two or a large group, the focus on "unsurpassed cuisine" and "finest details" is consistent across every format the restaurant offers.
For anyone looking for a serious American steakhouse experience in Las Vegas — one with the wine credentials and the prime beef to back it up — Vic & Anthony's on Fremont Street makes a compelling case.
