Butcher & Thief Brings Affordable Steakhouse Experience to Las Vegas

Butcher & Thief, the latest venture from Eleven Hospitality Group, has officially opened its doors at The Bend in southwest Las Vegas.

 

This 6,800-square-foot neighborhood steakhouse features a wraparound patio and a bright, welcoming atmosphere, catering to both locals and visitors seeking an elevated yet approachable dining experience.

 

Chef and restaurateur Cory Harwell emphasizes value as the restaurant's defining principle.

 

“The one ingredient missing from the American steakhouse for the last 20 years is value,” Harwell states.

 

“Steakhouses have priced themselves so far away from the average diner.

 

They don't have a corporate card.

 

They're not going out for a birthday or an anniversary every night of the week.

 

And, unfortunately, a majority of our phenomenal steakhouses have turned themselves into that type of venue.

 

I think there's a massive opportunity to bring value back.”

 

At Butcher & Thief, steaks range from $36 to $56, with wine by the glass priced from $8 to $17 and one-liter house carafes at $40.

 

The menu blends traditional cuts with butcher's selections such as zabuton and bavette, alongside dishes like branzino with smoky red pepper walnut romesco, steelhead trout with miso honey soy, and sausage rigatoni with a gin-infused tomato sauce.

 

Steak preparation follows a meticulous three-step process: sous-vide cooking for tenderness, searing on an 800-degree plancha, and finishing on the grill.

 

Appetizers and sides include six-cheese macaroni, gluten-free calamari, oysters, a wedge salad with spicy pickle ranch, Chicago clam chowder, and Rockefeller-style creamed spinach with Herbsaint.

 

Desserts range from banana cream pie with a Nutter Butter crust to fruit cocktail cranberry jello.

 

A signature junk food platter pays tribute to the late Kerry Simon with cookies, chocolates, and cotton candy.

 

“I just don't think there's a better shared dessert opportunity than the junk food platter that he created so many years ago at Simon at the Hard Rock,” Harwell says.

 

The restaurant launches with lunch service and plans to add happy hour and brunch to meet growing daytime demand at The Bend.

 

For those seeking an affordable yet high-quality steakhouse experience in Las Vegas, Butcher & Thief offers a compelling new option.

 

Located at 8670 W. Sunset Road, Suite H100, the restaurant is open Sunday through Thursday from 11:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., and Friday through Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.
