The Scene – Passersby hear this venerable steakhouse before they see it--a rushing waterfall cascading over terraced granite is the focal point of the sunken courtyard and underground dining room. Guests hop an elevator down to the entrance, where a black, pink and cream marble floor and neoclassical decor exude luxury and charm. French doors open onto the courtyard where diners enjoy a cool breeze and a plethora of greenery. – – The Food – Hand-picked USDA prime steaks dry aged to ensure tenderness as well as fresh seafood are the signature elements in most dishes.…

Best Dinner and Proposal

by AMcDonald899 at Citysearch

The host and manager helped me set up my proposal to my girlfriend. I was so nervous and they took care of everything for me so I could relax and enjoy the evening. The food and service was flawless and I've eaten at some of the most renowned steakhouses in the world, and this was, hands down, the best steak I've ever had.

  • Pros: Steaks were the best I've ever had.
  • Cons: Too cold to sit on the patio

I've had better steaks at cracker barrel

by seanke at Citysearch

We were looking forward to our night out. Dakotas Steakhouse Steaks ruined that. The service and atmosphere were excellent but that was it. The steaks were terrble. My wife and I had the filet and new york strip medium well. They came out "well done" aka charred on outside and still mooing on inside. Do not recommend this restaurant.

  • Pros: service and atmosphere
  • Cons: highly overpriced steaks!!!!!

Terrible service

by CAAnderson at Citysearch

My husband and I went to Dakota for a romantic dinner for our first wedding anniversary and were incredibly disappointed. We arrived a few minutes before our reservation and were seated right away. We then sat for 20 minutes before we were waited on, and that was only after we had requested a server TWICE. When we were assigned a server he didn't tell us the specials, did mention that he knew nothing about wine, and sweated profusely through the service. At no point did anyone come over and apologize for the fact that we waited to order drinks while other tables seated after us received their first course. The beef was excellent however; our side order of asparagus was inedible. The stalks were almost 3/4" thick which is too old to be served at any restaurant, let alone a high end steakhouse.

I cannot explain how disappointed we were after looking forward to a great anniversary dinner. Despite the ambience of the outdoor dining area we wouldn't consider visiting Dakota again.

  • Pros: Excellent beef
  • Cons: Terrible service, terrible sides
