Steakhouse Experience at home: a guide to upscale catering for private dinners.
A true steakhouse-caliber dinner in your dining room is not a fantasy. It is a logistics exercise — and we have run it a few hundred times.
What a private steakhouse experience dinner actually requires
A workable kitchen counter, 220V if you want a flat-top brought in, and a clear path from prep to the dining table. Most Phoenix and San Diego homes already qualify.
For groups of 8 to 24, we bring everything else: china, linens, glassware, the chef, the captain, and the proteins.
The menu we recommend
A passed canape, a chilled first course (oysters or crudo), a chef-attended steakhouse buffet main course (a 16oz bone-in ribeye, a 10oz filet, or a 24oz porterhouse for two), three shared sides, and a single dessert.
Add wine pairings or let us coordinate with your own cellar.
Pricing reality
Plan on $185 to $285 per guest, all in, depending on the protein selection and bar. That includes service, rentals, gratuity guidance, and a kitchen left cleaner than we found it.
