I had dinner at Gordon Ramsay Steak, located inside the Paris Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.
The wagyu filet was cooked perfectly, and the mac and cheese was full of flavor.
I'd definitely recommend dining at the Gordon Ramsay restaurant for great food and an upscale vibe.
As someone who has been living in Las Vegas for almost 20 years, I'm always asked about the best places to eat.
Recently though, I decided to take a chance on a restaurant I'd never been to — Gordon Ramsay Steak at the Paris Las Vegas Hotel and Casino.
The steakhouse chain, which now has six locations in cities like Baltimore, Vancouver, and Kansas City, first opened in Las Vegas in 2012. Here's what our experience at the celebrity-chef-owned restaurant was like.
I visited the restaurant on a Thursday evening.The entrance to the restaurant was meant to represent the Channel Tunnel.

After making a reservation on the restaurant's website, I visited Gordon Ramsay Steak for dinner on a Thursday.
Once I arrived, I was seated almost immediately. As I walked through the red, neon tunnel into the restaurant, the hostess explained that the entrance was meant to be an artistic representation of the Channel Tunnel connecting England to France.
The restaurant's interior was trendy and elegant.Gordon Ramsay Steak in Las Vegas has two floors.

The steakhouse is laid out in a two-story tiered design. My table was on the second floor and had an amazing view of the rest of the restaurant, including the iconic Union Jack flag painted on the ceiling and a neon-red chandelier.
I later learned the red lighting fixture was designed to represent Chef Ramsay's hands as he cooks.
I started with the warm breads and spreads.The breads and spreads were the perfect way to start off the meal.

Although all the starters sounded incredible, I decided to try the warm breads and spreads ($17). The dish came with a baguette, a triangle of crunchy lavash bread, and a fluffy roll that was half honey whole wheat and half French onion.
It also came with chimichurri oil, English butter, and another butter made with beef fat and red wine. Both butters were topped with Hawaiian lava salts.
I loved the variety of breads and tried them all with each spread. The baguette, however, was my favorite.
For my entrée, I ordered the wagyu filet, which was cooked perfectly.The wagyu beef was plated with a red-wine reduction and mustard seeds.

Everything on the menu sounded delicious, but there was no way I was going to a steakhouse and ordering anything but a steak. So, I opted for the wagyu filet.
The presentation was beautiful, with a swirl of red-wine reduction and a pyramid of mustard seeds on the plate.
The filet was seared perfectly on the outside and was cooked to a buttery-soft rare temperature on the inside. In my opinion, the 8-ounce filet was well worth the hefty $105 price tag.
The mac and cheese made a delicious side.The mac and cheese was topped with bacon and breadcrumbs.

Along with my steak, I ordered the mac and cheese, which the waitress said was the most popular side.
The description on the menu sounded delicious, and it also felt like the most robust choice, since all the sides were $19 each.
The amount of flavor in the dish blew me away. Mac and cheese is usually on the heavier side, but it was surprisingly light despite having bacon, smoked jalapeño cream, onion jam, smoked Gouda, and white cheddar packed in with the noodles.
The bacon added texture to the dish, and the jalapeño cream and onion jam added bursts of flavor. The breadcrumbs on top gave it just the right amount of crunch, making the dish immensely satisfying.
I would highly recommend dining at Gordon Ramsay Steak.I'd definitely return to Gordon Ramsay Steak in the future.

From start to finish, my experience at Gordon Ramsay Steak was top-notch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu and the restaurant.
I would definitely go again, if for no other reason than to make sure I save room for the delicious-looking sticky toffee pudding for dessert.
In my opinion, Gordon Ramsay Steak is the perfect choice if you're looking for an upscale restaurant with a trendy edge.
