What People Say

Reviewers on TripAdvisor and OpenTable rave about the perfectly cooked prime rib, the classic spinning bowl salad, and the attentive service. Many mention the “throwback Vegas feel” and applaud the staff for making any visit feel like a special occasion. It's also a popular choice for birthdays and anniversaries, so expect a festive mood most nights.

Areas for Improvement

While the food and service are top-notch, some guests note that the menu is very focused on prime rib, so it's not the best pick for vegetarians or those seeking variety. Also, it's a bit off the main Strip, so plan transportation accordingly if you're tight on time before a show.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for classic Vegas dining just minutes from the music, Lawry’s delivers with prime rib, polished service, and timeless style.
