Originally published at EDGe Vegas
Carver Road Hospitality will introduce Carversteak at Resorts World Las Vegas this December, the hospitality company’s first concept to be announced since launching in fall 2020. The 14,500-square-foot restaurant, the city’s largest luxury steakhouse and the resort’s only steak-focused outlet, will offer a contemporary take on the classic steakhouse experience.
Carversteak, designed by award-winning international design studio DesignAgency, boasts a mid-century modern aesthetic with a rich palette inspired by Las Vegas landscape. The design team conceived a sensory experience for guests with a series of original highlights such as The Knife Shop and Scotch Room, both of which double as private dining rooms. An expansive 70-foot honed quartzite stone bar leads to the main dining floor and 3,500-square-foot terrace complete with a bar, dining and lounge gardens overlooking the Las Vegas Strip. The restaurant’s interior serves as a gallery for the range of rotating digital and traditional art pieces alongside a state-of-the-art lighting and sound system.
“Carversteak is a new spin on the classic steakhouse,” said Sean Christie, CEO of Carver Road Hospitality. “Drawing on elements from the past paired with new techniques both front- and back-of-house, we are reimagining the steakhouse concept for today’s Las Vegas guests looking for a novel experience, but still comforted by the classics. The multi-faceted and beautifully designed restaurant, which will evolve in mood and tone as the night progresses, will strive for excellence every step of the way.”
To help execute its vision, Carver Road has partnered with A Perfect Bite, headed by well-placed industry veteran Oliver Wharton.
Taking the classic preparations of steakhouse staples and infusing them with seasonal ingredients, the Carversteak philosophy is backed with a sustainable ethos. Thick dry-aged American cuts will headline the steak program, accentuated by global artisan beef producers and Japanese-certified Wagyu cuts. Guests can expect signature dishes such as a 12-hour Slow-Roasted Prime Rib and Lobster Thermidor en Croûte, and playful items like Caviar Poppers and Wagyu Mini Cheesesteak Bites. Sumptuous vegan offerings will also abound.
Carversteak’s beverage program, helmed by Carver Road Hospitality’s Vice President of Beverage and Hospitality Culture Francesco Lafranconi, will feature an extensive collection of approachable wines, in addition to some of the most sought-after vintages, plus a curated whisk(e)y collection to be housed in a polished tasting room. The mixology experience on the terrace will showcase an “Avant-Garden” spin on classic and contemporary cocktails influenced by the onsite herb garden to include a collection of mint varietals.
A standout feature sure to appeal to today’s business traveler includes the spacious main bar and lounge. Offering the full menu, 24 bar seats and abundant lounge seating, the space will feature a 30-foot LCD screen displaying art and sporting events.
