About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Fancy
  • Romantic
When visiting the restaurant, patrons descend 18 feet underground in a canopied glass elevator, accessed from street level, for a culinary experience unlike any other. The American Steakhouse offers an expansive 1,800 square foot subterranean courtyard allowing patrons to dine al fresco and enjoy a New Orleans-inspired exterior space. This cool oasis is complete with a 20 foot, 5-tiered granite water wall, multi-tiered landscaping, lava rock fire pit, and black granite bar. Dakota's below-ground patio has long been considered one of the city's most romantic dining spots.

We believe the best steaks come from the best cut and quality. That’s why we get all of our beef fresh from renowned beef purveyors, Allen Brothers. Each cut is corn and grain fed USDA Prime steak that our chef handpicks. Each steak is aged for a minimum of 28 days for a perfectly tender, juicy bite every time.

It is our goal to give you a great meal every time you join us for lunch or dinner.

    We went out for an anniversary dinner and received exceptional service! The table was set perfectly, creating a wonderful atmosphere, and our host, Judge, was amazing. His attentiveness and excellent recommendations made the experience even better. We highly recommend him and Dakota's Steakhouse to everyone we know!

    Took my dad to Dakota's Steakhouse for Father's Day and it exceeded every expectation. We decided to go with the chef's choice, and what a decision that was- every single course was expertly prepared and beautifully presented. The standout for my sister was their lamb, it was tender and their mushroom sauce complimented it wonderfully. There was live piano playing and a relaxing atmosphere while we enjoyed our meal and my dad told my sister and I stories, which made for such a pleasant dinner where we could hear eachother easily. Our server Brian L. was incredible and made our night with his guidance on the chef's choice menu, it truly made the evening so fun and we all tried new food that did not disappoint. Everything about this experience was top-notch. The quality of the food, the ambiance, the service- Dakota's delivers on all fronts. This is the kind of place that makes celebrations truly memorable. We are already planning our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an exceptional experience.

    The food was incredible. The ambience was great. I really happy. I picked this one. The only hiccup was with waiting for the car, but it’s OK. The weather was great.
