When the occasion couldn’t be more important, when expectations are exceedingly high, and the desire is to impress like never before, there’s only one choice to consider: Lip Smacking Foodie Tours’ “Ultimate Steakhouse Tour.’’ Put yourselves in the trusted hands of the original, award-winning and home-grown Las Vegas culinary experience company, the one that set the bar, and that Thrillist just named “America’s Best Food Tour.’’ With more than a decade in business and countless repeat guests, the pioneering Lip Smacking has nurtured long-lasting, exclusive partnerships with the most coveted A-list restaurants that no others have. What’s more, Lip Smacking specializes in meeting the dietary needs of all its guests, no matter what they may be.

That’s why only Lip Smacking can offer this special intimate experience that takes you in one prime-time evening to three of Vegas’ most renowned steakhouses founded by some of the world’s most celebrated chefs. They include: Jose Andres, the Michelin-starred chef, Emmy Award winner, Time Magazine “100 Most Influential People’’ recipient, and founder of the humanitarian organization, World Central Kitchen; Jean-Georges Vongerichten, the multi-James Beard Award winning and Michelin-starred chef and restaurateur; and Michael Mina, the driving force behind more than 40 fine-dining restaurants around the world.

Stretch limousine luxury transportation is included with this tour, providing a pampering ride to each steakhouse for utmost convenience.

Highly trained, knowledgeable, and passionate, Lip Smacking professional guides, who know Vegas like nobody else, lead guests to each venue, all the while answering any questions and providing fascinating facts and stories about the city.

This is a high-touch affair, in which you are whisked immediately past host stands and velvet ropes to the best table in the house. At each venue, you will be privy to VIP service with a waitstaff at the ready to take care of every detail.

You’ll be greeted with a warm, personalized welcome at each establishment to enjoy bountiful portions of the finest signature dishes spotlighting luxurious ingredients. It’s not merely a meal; it’s an event. It’s dinner and a show, and then some. 

Savor juicy USDA prime, the king of American beef, as well as extraordinarily marbled A5, the highest grade of Japanese Wagyu available. The curated menu, however, also can be easily tailored specifically for guests who are pescatarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian or vegan. 

Price is $999 per person for this unparalleled experience, which includes all taxes and restaurant gratuities, plus a professional guide. It also includes a glass of exclusive red wine from a top-rated vintage or a special signature cocktail distinct to that particular restaurant served promptly at each stop. 

Step inside the plush Bazaar Meat, which recently relocated to The Palazzo at the Venetian Resort, making it better than ever. The Food Network’s Andrew Zimmern has raved that it’s the “Best Meat House in America,’’ Business Insider named it “Best Restaurant in Nevada,’’ and Fox News deemed it one of the “Top 5’’ steakhouses in the United States. Known for its innovative cuisine and theatrical presentations, the fun begins here with foie gras lollipops enveloped in wisps of cotton candy, plus olives, both traditional and modern jaw-dropping ones inspired by legendary molecular gastronomy pioneer Ferran Adriá. That’s followed by paper-thin slices of Cinco Jotas, the most exclusive 100 percent acorn-fed Iberico ham in the world that just melts in your mouth; and A5 Kobe eye of the rib seared at the table on a blazing Japanese ishiyaki grilling stone, accompanied by the butteriest potatoes on the planet.

The cocktails are entertainment in and of themselves, with the aptly named “Floral Cloud’’ arriving with a fragrant poof of hibiscus.

The wine pairing is sure to be noteworthy, coming straight from Bazaar Meat’s distinguished cellar that Gayot named one of the Top 10 wine lists in Vegas, and Wine Spectator has recognized with a “Best of Award of Excellence” since 2015.

Next, it’s on to Prime Steakhouse in the Bellagio, opened in partnership with Chef Vongerichten. This restaurant, with a magnificent view of the Fountains of Bellagio, is even more stunning, thanks to a recent refresh. It now boasts a Saint Laurent marble door frame, Baccarat-inspired carved glass, classic 1940s Parisian sconces, and a host stand as opulent as a fine jewelry display. Done up in French blue and caramel tones, the dining room has an intimate yet grand feel, thanks to Italian damask fabrics, layers of soft drapery, and Venetian chandeliers – all set against the backdrop of the mesmerizing Bellagio Fountains.

With its own dry-aging room, Prime offers the best Japanese and American beef at their optimum. No wonder it was named one of the “Top 100 Restaurants in Las Vegas’’ in 2024 by the Las Vegas Review Journal. The fireworks begin with bacon lacquered in maple syrup and black peppercorn glaze, then placed in a smokebox for a final hit of smokiness before being presented tableside. Next comes F1 New York strip steak, a Wagyu cross from Japan, accompanied by pistachio-crusted broccoli finished with lemon vinaigrette. It’s served with gratin Dauphinoise, a classic French side dish of thinly sliced potatoes layered with heavy cream, garlic, and nutty tasting Comté cheese that’s baked until bubbly for a spectacular cheese pull.

Finally, it’s on to Chef Michael Mina’s Bourbon Steak, Vegas’ latest and hottest steakhouse that’s located inside the luxurious Four Seasons resort. This steakhouse is always a hard ticket to land, but not for Lip Smacking. Guests will be bowled over the minute they step inside, as they pass through a grand golden arch entryway that leads to a glamourous dining room done up in peacock blue and bold floral murals. Service brings out all the drama with a lavish premium steak sliced tableside, as well as a signature lobster pot pie with black truffles presented beautifully in a copper pot before its steaming hot, flaky top crust is removed to reveal a whole lobster napped in a brandied cream sauce. It’s accompanied by a playful creamed spinach pop tart; and the most unique mac and cheese, in which tubes of pasta are presented upright in precise rows like a battalion of soldiers, drenched in cheese sauce, then pan-fried until completely crisp on the top and bottom. 

Dessert goes equally over-the-top with warm banana tarte tatin on vanilla French toast with a scoop of macadamia nut ice cream and a drizzle of preserved citrus caramel. That’s only the beginning though, as what follows includes a tower of just-fried beignets dusted with powdered sugar accompanied by three different custard dipping sauces; silky butterscotch pudding made with 12-year-old Macallan single malt scotch whisky; crème brulee heaped with fresh raspberries; and velvety milk chocolate pot de crème.

In Vegas, where the stakes are high not just for a good but a great time, locals and visitors alike know they’ll always come away a winner with Lip Smacking.
