My wife and I attended a football game on 12 Oct 2025 at Allegiant Stadium and afterwards, we wanted to remain in the area to have dinner before we drove home. I know that it seems like Luxor Hotel and Casino hasn't been a fan favorite by many and there's been comments on how it's gone "downhill," but I still enjoy walking through that property from time to time. We initially agreed on a restaurant in Luxor; however, after standing in line for a few minutes and battling my hunger spells, I decided to forego that restaurant and find another one in the vicinity. I did a quick online search for nearby restaurants and found Tender - I made a reservation and we headed that way.
When we walked in, we were greeted nicely by the hostess (I wish I captured her name because she was very friendly and personable). As we were being escorted to our table (booth seating), I immediately noticed the nice décor and how spacious the restaurant was. Our server, Kaitlin, did such a remarkable job that evening - she was extremely professional, attentive, and operated very efficiently. This business is fortunate to have an employee like her. In fact, based on the interactions with all the employees that evening, I'd say that this restaurant is lucky to have the majority, if not all of them.
We ordered the Justin Cabernet and Smoked Old Fashioned for our drinks; and the Dinner for Two Special consisting of: BLT Wedge Salad, Tomato Bisque Soup, 44 oz Tomahawk, Mac & Cheese, Garlic Spinach, Chocolate Mousse Cake, and New York Style Cheesecake. We also ordered the Crab Cake for an additional appetizer because it's difficult for us to visit a Steakhouse and not try their version of Crab Cake. This was the first time taking advantage of a dinner-for-two concept because typically, I'm one of those "get your own steak"-type since I'm a carnivore and want a steak to myself; however, as I've gotten older, my food quantity intake has decreased...so this was perfect for us. Everything was magnificent that evening. I know this is un-American, but I'm not a huge fan of mac & cheese like a lot of people are, but the one at this restaurant was outstanding and can stand behind the hype because of this. The steak was slightly overcooked to our liking but it was still tender and was seasoned to perfection.
Overall, I loved this restaurant as depicted in my 5-star rating. The price-to-quantity/quality ratio was excellent and I highly respect this restaurant for their continued support to the active men and women of the Armed Forces, including its Veterans - thank you for that! Although Luxor isn't as popular as it was years ago, people should consider visiting to try this restaurant. I highly recommend this place to all locals and visitors!
