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.

Service was good, but the arrival of our food was not was ordered which created two of the four entrees to be returned. This was not expected from such an expensive restaurant. The seasoning on the filets were overdone as I expected aged beef to have more natural flavor. The wine selections are excellent and our table enjoyed our wine immensely.

Rails is normally an outstanding experience, as we have dined there numerous times before. We were there for Thanksgiving night and expected the same stellar experience. Unfortunately, this was not the case. Our food was delivered very late, cold and the steak overcooked. However, I am still a huge fan, as the management did everything to make this right. Don’t know what the issue was, but we were treated as valued guests and the concern for our experience was real. We were well compensated for the less than excellent experience, so I will continue to give them the highest recommendation, as they really care about their customers and want to ensure a 5 star experience. Thank you,Rails, for doing the right thing. We appreciate it. We will be back,

This has been our go to spot for special occasions ever since our first visit. We’ve celebrated our engagement, city hall wedding, birthdays and anniversaries there. Today we celebrated my husband and step daughter’s birthday. It was a nice night, the food was great, and our server Lennon was very good and attentive. Thanks again for another great meal and even better memories! 😊

Very nice birthday dinner celebration. Started out with Fried calamari & the bacon for apps. Both were amazing!!! Steaks & filet mignon were all done to perfection and very flavorful!!! The sides of brussel sprouts, truffle fries & home fried potatoes were all so delicious!!! The restaurant was very busy and loud, but energetic. We were in a cozy booth so the ambiance was very nice! Would definitely recommend Rails for a special occasion!

The servers and food were fantastic. At some point the lights were dimmed and we were sitting under a lightbulb that was out. We requested some kind of light a number of times that never materialized. The high top table was very wobbly. Next time I’ll book in the dining room so I can see and not have to hold a table steady every time somebody needed to cut steak
