The Steakhouse at Agua Caliente Resort Casino Spa Rancho Mirage
RESTAURANT SUMMARY

Where casino glamour meets culinary excellence, The Steakhouse at Agua Caliente Resort Casino Spa Rancho Mirage elevates Palm Springs fine dining through its theatrical presentation of hand-selected USDA Prime beef and tableside artistry. This sophisticated steakhouse transforms the traditional chophouse experience into dinner theater, complete with front-row views of the gaming floor's electric energy.
Since opening within the luxurious Agua Caliente Resort, The Steakhouse has established itself as the desert's premier destination for serious carnivores and discerning diners. The restaurant's philosophy centers on meticulous sourcing and preparation, with every cut specially aged for 21 days and seasoned with their signature dry rub blend. This commitment to craft has positioned the restaurant among the best restaurants Palm Springs offers, drawing both high-rolling guests and local gourmands seeking an elevated steakhouse experience.
The menu showcases three cornerstone cuts—New York strip, ribeye, and filet mignon—each offered in dual preparations alongside prime rib variations. The showstopping Prime Chateaubriand commands attention as servers carve the 20-ounce center-cut roast tenderloin tableside, creating an unforgettable spectacle. For the ultimate indulgence, the newly introduced certified A5 Japanese Kobe striploin represents the pinnacle of beef luxury in a seven-ounce presentation. Beyond beef, the kitchen excels with broiled Scottish Loch Duart salmon and Western Australian lobster tail, while the "Surf Meets Sand" sampler delivers chilled oysters, ahi poke, king crab legs, and Mexican shrimp cocktail. Steak Enhancement options allow personalization with blue cheese crusts or seared jumbo scallops, complemented by steakhouse classics like creamed spinach and tableside-prepared baked potatoes.
The dining experience balances casino excitement with refined elegance, offering both intimate interior seating and coveted tables overlooking the gaming floor for unparalleled people-watching. The extensive wine program impresses with over 300 selections from a 4,000-bottle inventory, presented via tablet technology for seamless browsing by region, price, or varietal. Service follows fine dining protocols while maintaining the approachable "casino casual" dress code that welcomes guests in elegant comfort. The sommelier team expertly guides pairings for both intimate dinners and celebratory occasions.
Reservations through OpenTable or direct booking at 888-999-1995 are essential for securing tables at this popular destination. Operating nightly from 5 PM, The Steakhouse represents the epitome of best fine dining in Palm Springs, where theatrical presentation meets uncompromising quality in an atmosphere that's uniquely desert glamorous.
