About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Lively
  • Great for fine wines
Rails Steakhouse is a modern American steakhouse offering carefully selected USDA Prime and CAB corn-fed beef, dry-aged a minimum of 28 days on-premise & hand-cut daily. We offer modern and contemporary dishes, including sustainable fresh seafood, homemade desserts, and an award-winning wine list recognized by Wine Spectator.

Attention to detail can be seen in this beautiful 20,000 sq. ft., restaurant where sprawling timber meets natural stonewalls, accents of glass showcase fire-and-water features in this luxe lodge. While all levels feature the same menu, the main dining room has a more sophisticated ambiance and Rafters on the second floor has a more casual lodge appeal. Descend to the lower level to find the secret passage that takes you to the wine cave, and Thirty 3, a speakeasy-style bar and lounge. Dine al fresco on our outdoor terraces offering spectacular views of the Pyramid Mountains. Most importantly, we want you to feel at home where our hospitality is second to none.

    Had an absolute fantastic time sitting at the bar last night for dinner! The Cherry on Top was a great drink starter! Followed by the rails platter and the pepper crusted ribeye prepared perfectly! Ended the night with an espresso martini! Couldn’t have asked for a better night!

    I took my wife and daughters there for the first time to celebrate Mother’s Day. I made reservations way in advance so that wasn’t an issue. We arrived early so headed to the bar for a drink while they readied our table, which they came and got us a few minutes after our reserved time but I didn’t mind as the bar is beautiful and bartenders were friendly and attentive. We sat down and peered at the NOT FIXED menu, a huge plus in my mind for I absolutely detest fixed menus. Very hard decision as I wanted to try so many things. The staff was knowledgeable and charming and the food was amazing. Many people have warned me about the prices but I didn’t find them to be outrageous, and our dinner at a premiere steakhouse was about the same price as our brunch (fixed menu, not so tasty and stupid expensive for what was offered) earlier in the day. They then gave my wife a Mother’s Day present of a gift card for future use…what a nice surprise and excellent marketing strategy, not needed as we will be returning, but definitely a well played idea. All in all, they helped make it a special dinner for my much deserving wife on Mother’s Day…thank you for that!

    Hi Sean, Thank you so much for the thoughtful and detailed review. We're honored you chose Rails to celebrate Mother’s Day with your family, and thrilled to hear we delivered a memorable experience for such a special occasion. We’re especially glad you appreciated the à la carte menu, the warm service from both our bartenders and dining staff, and the overall atmosphere. It’s also wonderful to hear the Mother’s Day gift card was a welcomed surprise—we love going the extra mile for our guests! We truly appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you and your family back again soon. Have a great weekend!

    There is a lot of hype about Rails. The building and architecture is great and I feel you pay for the experience a little bit. Overall very consistent across the board. No complaints but nothing outstanding
