New Peter Luger Raises The ‘Steaks’ At Caesars Palace Las Vegas
18.11.2023 - 21:31 / forbes.com
Forget underground vaults filled with cash — the next high-tech ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ caper in Las Vegas may be breaking into the dry-aging room below the new Peter Luger Steak House at Caesars Palace. “There’s well over one million dollars of prime steaks in that locker,” says Daniel Turtel, Vice President of Peter Luger Steak House. “Though it would be a lot harder to walk out of the casino carrying 35lb. short loins than stacks of chips.”
Fortunately to get the best steak in town you can just make a reservation instead of rounding up your own crew of con artists. Peter Luger Steak House had its grand opening at Caesars Palace on November 10th bringing it’s classic menu of “Steak for Two, Steak For Three, Steak For Four” with other standards from the original New York location as well as some new additions. “We added incredible Shellfish Towers and a special Loaded Baked Potato, we extended the wine list and have a slightly different cocktail program,” says Turtel. “But mostly it's designed to be an identical experience. What's different is it's Vegas.”
If you’re feeling nostalgic for the original location in between rounds of blackjack, stepping into the new location will make you feel right at home. Though at 8,700 square feet with an octagonal-shaped main dining room with triple-height ceilings that seats more than 300 people you’ll know you’re not in Brooklyn anymore. “An exact replica would be kind of strange,” says Turtel. “We decided to keep the elements that we love like exposed brick, hardwood floors and oak tables. Then we mixed and matched those elements to create something modern and timeless. Even though the restaurant is brand new it feels like it’s been there forever.”
With it’s original restaurant in Brooklyn dating back to 1887 Peter Luger has been serving customers for over 135 years. But in addition to its Great Neck, Long Island location, which opened in the 1960s, they’ve only opened one place outside their home turf, launching in Tokyo, Japan in 2021. So why open in Las Vegas and why now?
“Caesars called my grandmother like 25 years ago,” says Turtel. “She just wasn’t interested. But they were persistent. And when I got the call five years ago we got to know each other and it was a slow process to see if it was a fit. So now that’s all culminated in this opening. Working with Caesars has been fantastic. Also 20 years ago it was difficult to even fill up one restaurant with really good USDA prime beef. The beef industry has evolved and is producing quality at high rates. USDA Prime is our heart and soul and we only purchase from the top 5% of that. So to have the supply we need has opened a lot of doors.”

Las Vegas Launches Campaign to Encourage Excessive Celebration at Super Bowl LVIII
Las Vegas, the Official Host City of Super Bowl LVIII, has launched a petition on Change.org urging football fans to encourage excessive celebration during the city’s first foray into hosting the Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 11, 2024. The petition was accompanied by a music video featuring former NFL All-Pro wide receiver Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson and Grammy-nominated artist Tobe Nwigwe. The petition is a nod to the fact that while professional sports often restrict excessive celebrations, they are always encouraged in Las Vegas. “Whether you are on the Strip, in the stadiums, or just here for a good time, Las Vegas will forever be the home of excessive celebration,” reads the petition in part.
