    Would have been nice to eat here but 30 minutes after our reservation time, we still weren’t seated. We left and ate at Blake’s next door where reservations were required as well but they fit us in. The hostess from the steakhouse saw us and gave us free desert and apologized. Nice gesture, but I was disappointed for such an expensive restaurant.

    I wanted to love it. I did the last time I came, which was quite some time ago. The restaurant was packed and my impression was they’ve added a lot of tables. The space can’t hold this many tables for noise level and ease walking around. It took 30 minutes for us to get our cocktails. Service was very slow, but we really loved the waiter. I think the restaurant might’ve been a little overwhelmed. We were there 2 1/2 hours for two courses. The food is delicious but the snapper had very little crab meat on it and very little of the beurre blanc. Kinda one note and again, not as I remember, which was really outstanding last time. Lastly, when we valet parked, we were told it would be $30 even though we were only there for dinner. I checked with someone else in management who told me the same thing. That put a real damper on our dining experience! As we were leaving to pay parking at the front desk, we complained again and were told we could get validated and only pay five dollars. No one told us that. The valets should know that and when we said we were only there for dinner, they said it didn’t matter. They seemed unaware of the validated ticket. I’m not anxious to return to this Landry’s restaurant. I’ll stick to Vic and Anthony’s.

    The Singer Leslie Lugo and her band were way too loud. Her music was unbecoming of a Steakhouse Setting. She refused to adjust volume tho all patrons complained. The Food and Service was outstanding! I would recommend Checking before booking if she is playing. She starts at 8pm in The Steakhouse and continues till 2AM.

    We had Carlos as the server. He was extremely pleasant and catered to us like we were at his house.😁. The food was really outstanding. I believe The San Luis is a perfect place for a really nice dinner. The food and service is worth writing about. Please try the restaurant, you won’t be disappointed.

    The Steakhouse at the San Luis Resort was incredible. My wife got the Australian Wagyu 8 oz filet and said it was the best steak she has ever had. Every menu item that we ordered was amazing and so flavorful. We will be coming back as often as possible and highly recommend it.

    The crab cakes, ribeye, and filet were great & cooked perfectly. The chianti based sauce was wonderful with the steak. A side of Brussel sprouts was very good and enormous, the two of us couldn’t finish them. As always, Jon Paul was gracious and added a touch of finesse to the evening. His presence had a calming effect on some moments of hyper activity at our table and surrounding tables. We were glad he was on the floor. We understand that the restaurant is aiming for sophisticated elegance but the lighting is just too dim . We and the diners at the surrounding tabes had to use our phone lights to read the menus and check our steak temperature. Not a good thing for a restaurant at this price point. One very annoying thing that the waiters did was prior to presenting menus was barking out the evening’s specials, not one or two, but a never ending list of specials, steak grades, etc. We had lost interest early on. Additionally, they knew we were returning guests but still they felt obligated to give us the usual steakhouse take on prime grades, Wagu from Japan vs other countries, etc. Perhaps management is requiring the waitstaff to do the above but please reserve it for first time guests. Overall, the food was the winner and with a few improvements in lighting and service, the restaurant could be a top tier steakhouse with the benefit of an island resort vibe.
