Passing through from Death Valley to Zion, stayed over in Tecopa and had dinner here. They seem to have a high bar on quality and it showed-food was delicious! The chef/cook, Eric, came out to our table-always a pleasure to meet the mad genius behind your meal, I think. My partner got the tenderloin and loved it. I'm a vegetarian, got potato soup. Very satisfying! read more

We were staying at the very rustic Tecopa Hot Springs. Everything was closed on Monday, but the manager said there was a "delicious" little place down the road in Tecopa so off we went. It was tiny; we ate outdoors under gas heat. I thought the place was a hoot! Way better than we had expected to find (and way more expensive). Picky sister-in-law got a burger cooked exactly as she like it. Pink but not raw. I got the filet mignon, which was also very well-prepared and way better quality than I had a right to expect in the desert. The mashed potatoes were perfect and even passed my wife's taste test. Our owner/server/chef could have been interpreted as rude and off-putting but we thought he was a stitch. All in all, an eccentric little place with good meat and beer in the middle of nowhere. FIVE STARS for the area. Four stars for comparison to my other reviews. read more

We made reservations for six people, showed up early hoping the brewery was open next door. Brewery was not open but that was not a problem - Steak and Beer made us so welcome (Eric), called us in for beer and wine and the evening began. We all selected the price fixed meal that was an appetizer, salad,soup,entree and desert.. the food was absolutely amazing!!! The cheese plate had a great variety, the salad was fresh and flavorful, the potato soup was amazing the rib eye was cooked to order and the Cherries Jubilee.....no words. OK is what threw us, We arrived to what appeared to be a shack with a pond that required love but we so0n found out it was only a cover. The place, food and service were over the top. We had an amazing time and highly recommend. read more

Hands. Down. Best. Rib-Eye. Holy hell, Eric can cook! I came here on a short overnight and my cousin was raving about this guy's cookint. Said he'd eaten there 3 meals a day for a week when he first discovered the place, so obviously I had to try it. When we first got there, John was in front and suggested a salad they'd made up that day. It didn't sound like something I would like, and he ensured me that either way I would love whichever salad I got. He was right. I tried the one he'd been pushing, and it was ri-dic-ulous; My cousin licked the plate. Grapefruits and a shallot based reduction dressing adorned what I usually don't enjoy, arugula. It was just as good as the orchard berry salad I had split with my boyfriend, which had strawberries, blackberries, mixed greens, and a delicious berry reduction dressing made in house. It was so good. I can't even begin to tell you about the rib eye without a tear in my eye for the fact that it was days ago that it was in my mouth, and this place is over 1,000 miles from my house. First of all, the size of the damned thing was big enough that my boyfriend and I were able to split it and easily become full. It had the perfect buttery fat that you dream of in a rib eye, and was cooked with such care, love and perfection that it was crispy and wonderfully charred on the outside, while tender, juicy and mouth watering on the inside. Hang on, I need a tissue. It was served with delicious sautéed veggies and mashed potatoes. This place is right next door to the Death Valley Brewing Company. And has a beautiful outdoor dining area as well as a couple tables inside and a small bar. They sell the DVB beer as well, but I am gluten free and don't really drink a whole lot anyways, so I just went with the sangria. It was SO good! John was the perfect host and made us feel like we were the most important people there. He was the same way with the other diners, and his warm energy was a great addition to such an incredible meal. I can not freaking wait to go back to this place!! read more

Steaks and Beer - This was what was left of my ribeye and veggies before I decided I needed a photo memory. - Steakhouses Near Me - Tecopa, California

We visit the Tecopa area frequently. We decided to spend Xmas in the area and reserved a spot here for xmas eve. We had eaten here before and the other place in Tecopa. My partner is an excellent chef (I am not!) so she was looking forward to someone making her a delicious Xmas Eve meal. We arrived and ordered beers and our steak dinners. Others were Being served their meals many 5 course meals. Pretty soon something must have caught fire in the kitchen and burned creating so much smoke they had To open doors to get-smoke Out of the dining room area. About 10 minutes later it seemed Like the lights dimmed and we were served our dinners. A dinner my sweetheart was so looking forward to. I could not see my dinner. I tried to shine my bright xmas necklace on-it, but it just looked black. Anyway, shortening this story, we were served steaks that were burned and inedible. The owners should have taken the loss, prepared new steaks and taken the meat home to the dogs like we did. Oh, the cook came up to me and asked me if we wanted dessert! Flambé?! We paid and left a good tip. After all it was eve. You blew it and left us with a crappy meal. Shame on you. Oh, oops. After rinsing off the burned steaks & cutting off the charred flesh & awful sauce my dogs enjoyed them greatly. Happy Holidays. read more

My friend and I went to Tecopa for a day trip and decided to stop by this place. The reason we went is because we love steak and beer, and that was on the sign so we were in business. The owner was a trip, we loved him. Apparently they weren't open yet when we strolled in (oops) but since we only wanted to grab some beers he gladly served us. This was our first real stop in Tecopa so he filled us in on things to do. He turned us on to Delights Hot Springs and their awesome BBQ joint. We had a couple of Kona Big Wave Golden Ales and enjoyed the owners company. We saw at the bar that there was some type of offer if you checked in on social media, but if you go out there the place is an absolute dead zone everywhere so that became our running joke. "We'd google it... but.." We ended up coming back to this spot for dinner to try a steak, and I'm glad we did! We ordered a T-Bone and somehow my friend and I demolished it. This was our SECOND dinner, by the way. It was perfectly cooked and a great piece of meat. The salad and potatoes were off the charts too. Very simple ingredients, but oh so tasty. When we arrived for dinner the place was packed. Seeing as how it's a very small place with a handful of tables, it's not hard to pack. Since there were only two of us this large table let us sit down with them which was a lot of fun. We enjoyed getting to talk to some fellow Las Vegans and one of the locals. If you come to Tecopa and don't mingle with the locals, you're doing it wrong. They're some of the nicest, most hospitable and down to earth people I've ever met. I'll be back to this place for a weekend trip soon for sure. read more

Every time I'll be visiting Vegas, I will go for a 3 hour round trip, just to eat at this place. Only an hour and a half from Vegas, in the middle of the desert, stands one of the bestiest, friendliest and tastiest places I had ever eaten at! Never thought I am able to eat so much. And what a desert!... Two amazing chefs in one tiny place... only 9 hours away from me :( read more

This place is okay with sexual harassment. I came here on a Friday night and the owner told me they didn't have any spots for one so to go grab a beer next door while I waited for a table. After about twenty minutes, a guy came over and told me the table was ready. I walked back over and the guy was standing inside, he said "you're stuck with me" and sat down at a table for two. I said that was fine, I was happy to share dinner with someone and chat. We order food and make small talk. I tell him my name is Lou. He says I'm the only girl he's ever met name Lou, and I explain it's my chosen name. He asks my real name, and I say Amy. He tells me he likes Amy more because it's a sexy name. This dude is old enough to be my dad. From then on, he proceeds to proposition me throughout the rest of meal. I tell him pretty quickly I'm gay. He says I'm too pretty to be gay, I should give being straight one more chance, invites me back to his hot tub, tells me he thinks I like him, asks to come hiking with me and my dad and that he'll just explain to my dad that his daughter's hot. I say no repeatedly and firmly, saying "it's never going to happen" several times. I explain to him this isn't fun for me. He seems to get it at points and backs off, then doubles down. I ask for the check twice. It doesn't come. The guy says he's going to pay for my meal and I say "you really don't have to do that." The owner asks if we want dessert, I say no, the guy tells the owner he's trying to get me to get another drink or dessert but I won't budge. I say to the owner I'm desperate to leave (verbatim). The guy says I should leave if I want to. I do. After a beautiful day in Death Valley a couple of days later, my dad and I try to go back to Tecopa Brewing Co., where we had a wonderful night and meal the night before. For real, go there for kind people and great BBQ. Unfortunately, it and The Bistro and the cafe in Shoshone were all closed, so we headed back here. Half way through our meal, the owner asks if I was there the other night with that guy (the owner knew his name, I wish I could remember it). I said yes and "you shouldn't sit that guy with a younger woman or maybe any woman." The owner says he didn't sit us together, he thought we came together (I guess that dude somehow magically intuited someone was waiting for a table at the brewery next door, got me, and asked for a table for two and the owner forgot I asked for a seat for one) and asks what happened. I give a brief retelling and the owner says "that guys harmless." The owner comes back later and tells me I should get a taser like he's gotten for his family members. He tells me I should have left, and my dad says I did. He tells me he doesn't think this guy has done anything wrong, and that I have to be more proactive in telling the establishment that I'm being harassed because every time he walked by I smiled at him. He wasn't the guy harassing me, so I'm not sure why I wouldn't have smiled at him. He raised his voice and talked over me. It's incredible he told me I should have reported the incident to him while simultaneously telling me this guy didn't do anything wrong. This is exactly why people don't like to report sexual harassment. Why would I report harassment to someone who doesn't think it's harassment? My way of dealing with harassment is my choice, and I don't need to be mansplained that I can buy a taser. It can be more dangerous and more uncomfortable to make a scene than to just firmly say no and leave when you feel comfortable leaving. I know I can buy a taser. I know how to shoot a gun, and know I can buy one of those too. It's scary being alone by yourself in a place with no service and no one to help if some creepy dude comes after you. But, call me crazy, I hope to live in a world where I don't have to buy a gun or a taser to eat at a restaurant, and in which the owner of a business in which someone has sexually harassed a person young enough to be his child says simply I'm sorry that happened to you, thanks for giving me a heads up. Also, the burger was over cooked. Filet was bomb though. Always tip your servers but don't come here in the first place. read more

After a soak in the hot springs nearby, my partner and I decided to stop by for dinner after hearing that a few friends had stopped there for steak salads on a similar day trip from Vegas. Great atmosphere with the fire pit, outdoor seating and cozy interior... reminded me of a few spots farther north in the Sierras. I was not expecting an organic farm-to-table meal, what a treat for the middle of the desert! The ribeye and burger were amazing, as were the side salad, roasted carrots and mashed potatoes. Such a nourishing dinner and a total gem for a tiny town! We will definitely be back. read more

Thanks Steaks and Beer for a meal of a lifetime. I was visiting Death Valley and staying in Shoshone; and to say there are limited food options around there could be an understatement of the year (as in one restaurant and no grocery store). The night after trying the Crowbar and waiting over 90 minutes for our food, we decided to drive the 12 miles to try Steaks and Beer. And are you kidding me?? This place is SOOOO good. I later heard that the chef used to be a hotshot cook in Vegas--what a loss for Vegas; and what a win for this area....and really a win for all people who dream of someday starting their dream business somewhere and creating near perfection. As we drove out there it really felt like we were driving into the unknown and the wilderness, and then Steaks and Beer appeared out of nowhere, and now sometimes I wonder if it was all a dream. I ordered the T-bone and out came the biggest cut I have ever seen in my life--seasoned to beyond perfection and with some greens and mash potatoes that blew my mind. Please Steaks and Beer....publish a cookbook ASAP and let us see the recipes! The Chef is SO talented and the food they serve, in my opinion, can rival any restaurant on planet earth. I'm not kidding, the following night we ate at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant in Vegas and Steaks and Beer was exponentially better (and also was well over 50% less in cost). Hey Yelpers, this place is worth the drive from Vegas just for one meal and then driving back, and you even get the bonus of seeing how beautiful Death Valley is. Such irony: while visiting Death Valley, I had a pinnacle of a meal that made me feel so alive. read more

We wanted to love this place. We happened by here one weekend after visiting the brewery next door. After reading all the rave reviews, my guest (a huge steak fan) and I made another trip the following Tuesday from Pahrump. Small dining area and a few outside tables. Quaint and kitschy. My guest ordered a beer and since they have no diet soda, I just had water. Simple menu ; maybe 10 entrees. I asked what was in the vegetable pasta only to be told basically "vegetables and pasta", so I ordered the arugula and cauliflower instead . My guest ordered the rib eye rare ,which came with mashed potatoes and vegetables. My cauliflower was good, albeit a little salty. But we were not there for me; we were here for my guest to enjoy a big rare tender piece of beef . Unfortunately the meat was incredibly tough. It was indeed rare, but had to be sawed with a steak knife. My guest later told me he was watching the table next to us also having a difficult time cutting their steaks. . No one checked on us through the meal. We had the rest of the steak boxed up (my dogs had the most expensive meal of their lives) read more

I've been a visitor to Tecopa for about 12 years, and this was my first and last trip to steaks and beer. The steak was overcooked, poor quality, and then smothered in a balsamic vinegar 'sauce' which was neither listed on the menu, nor communicated upon ordering. A strange thing to add to a steak. This sauce was also poured over the mashed potatoes which were horribly under seasoned, and didn't seem to contain any cream or butter. My companion ordered a burger, which was adequate, but smothered in Mustard, and my other companion had a veggie pasta, which was just overcooked pasta, swimming in pasta water, with assorted side vegetables thrown on top. The wine was also terrible, perhaps their beer is better? I asked about the disgusting sauce all over the steak, and received a shrug in response. Such a shame. I can't see how al these 5* reviews made it on here, although perhaps the sign promising a discount in exchange for one is the mystery solved. read more

This place is the best thing going in the area. Weekends are the time to catch the local brewmasters selling their Tecop brewing Compny small batch fresh beer. Get it while it lasts! I recommend having the Steak. read more

This was one of the best dining experiences of my life. The food is inventive and expertly executed. It feels like dining in someone's home in the best way possible -- less like a business and more like a passion project. The food is truly outstanding. read more

Loved the food. Never have I felt like I had a private chef. The meal was thought out and executed well. Food here is from scratch and fresh. My hubby went berserk and won't stop talking about it. We will be back and I recommend the five course dinner.......you won't be sorry. Don't go for the ambiance or decor, it's in a small building next to the bar. It looks like an 8 year olds bedroom.......so sit outside or overlook it while you love the food. read more

This will be my stop from visiting the in-laws coming home everytime. The food and company are exactly what you would want. Your are welcome to build a fire or sit at the bar. Music selection is great and the food is what you will be back for. Grass fed organic beef and fresh farmed veggies. If you love jam & toast they have a great selection of fresh jarred jam from local farmers. Bloody marry topping bar at your disposal during brunch. Eric and Joey don't stop! I'll be back to taste the rest of the menu. I'll see you two soon! read more

This place is AMAZING WHAT A GEM! I had the burger 2 nights in a row! Fresh food in the middle of nowhere

I went here and had the five course dinner--one of the best meals of my life!! From the cheese plate to the salad to the soup....it was all fresh and heavenly. It's such a cool place and the employees were friendly and down to earth. I can't wait to go back and have another juicy steak cooked to perfection. No vole sightings here. read more

The Owner is a great guy. He is extremely hospitable. The food and drinks are Tasty and it's a very neat location for a steakhouse. I just tried this place again recently last Saturday night...This time I tried the Salisbury Steak it was a large portion, fork tender, seasoned and cooked to perfection it came with incredibly silky smooth Mashed Potatoes and a veggie. Chef Eric has heroically revitalized and rescued the reputation of the much maligned Salisbury Steak from the dreary school lunchroom or cafeteria and given it the "Panache and Gravitas" it so finally deserves. He has made it into a thing of dreams... Bravo! I also recommend the cheese plate appetizer it was a tasty assortment. I left with a full and happy stomach and a big smile. Thank You Chef Erick and staff, for a wonderful experience I'll not soon forget...Cheers! read more

My wife and I came here last year and by far had the best steak and meal we've had. We found this place by mistake while visiting Tecopa hot springs and what a superb surprise. We came here again a year after and it's just as pleasant. This may have to be a yearly place we visit all the way from Florida! read more

This is a great name for a small place with outdoor seating that puts out great entrees and knows how to cook a steak properly. We (5) showed up just before closing and was served a great meal.Thumbs up! read more

This place is AWESOME! Most of the people who gave crap reviews sound like they expect a 5 star hotel restaurant decor and service. Well... Vegas is only 1.5 hrs away if that's what they're looking for. Okay, so the food, was phenomenal! There were 5 of us and we ordered 2 sets of 5-course meal and it was perfect. They happily gave us extra plates and utensils for everything as well. The food preparation is comparable with 5 star hotel restaurants. cheese pretzel and jam was awesome. Salad was awesome (i don't even like salads normally). soup was awesome. STEAK WAS PERFECT! with real flavors! Dessert was a pleasant finish. The owners were also servers. They were to the point, no bullshit, direct, honest. I find it hilarious that some reviewers seem to find this small town manner offensive. They ran around, were fast, and gave us all we asked for. The other guests were such riots too. Everyone was having fun. Some retired opera singer sang happy birthday to guest in another table. I pulled guitar off the wall and messed around and people were like "yeah!" Anyhow, everyone in my table are for sure visiting again in the future. The recommendations were given by my friends and I'm super happy that I had took their recommendations. read more

This is the best dining experience .. the place is beautifully rustic and comfortable and has a ultimate dining experience. The menu is great with great choices and really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. From the t-bone steak, rib eye to the house specials .. you won't need a box to go, empty plates is always a good sign of great food. Out Favorite is the fixed 5 course meal. Great scrumptious appetizer, soup salad and main course and lets not forget the desert. Wow!! We left with the best full belly and can't wait to come back.. 90 minutes from Las Vegas and trust me worth every mile! Steak and beer!! This place is FLIPPIN amazing but call and make a reservation is my tip of the day. read more

There's not many choices in this neck of the woods. But you'd be hard pressed finding a better place for dinner. First off Eric Scott is the owner/chef/bartender/waiter. He knows his stuff when it comes to the beers he serves. But he REALLY know his stuff in the kitchen. Let's start with the five course dinner for 2. Cheese and fruit plate is course one. Presentation five stars. Great variety of tastes. Course two. Soup. We had over 2 nights. Cream of cauliflower and cream of potato. I could have eaten just the soup and would have been satisfied. Course three. Salad. Light and fresh. Green salad Course four your choice of ribeye. Filet. Prime rib. Come on. Cooked to perfection. We had all 3 over our 2 meals. Course five. Dessert. I partial to key lime.pie. Had it both nights. But we also had a cherry chocolate chocolate cake. I put 2 chocolates in the description because it's so chocolatey. Also has the mint chocolate cake. Again a winner. It's a small place. 2 tables plus a bar. Seats inside 12. Outside with a fire pit many more. Make reservations! Eric is a kind caring person and it shows in his meal prep. Presentation and taste. I would travel the 3 1/2 hours to the desert just knowing I'd be eating at Steak and Beer for dinner. read more

Service is phenomenal, they will do almost anything to make a guest happy. The food is perfect. The steak is my favorite, but the desserts are yummy too. Seating is creative due to limited space, but outside has a lovely atmosphere and inside is quite funny with all the antics of the guys. There is a fire pit for the cold nights and usually a great sunset so plan your visit around that. read more

An unexpected surprise in the desert. After a soak in the hot springs, continue to heal your soul with an amazing meal at Steaks and Beer. My ribeye was perfectly seasoned and cooked. As much as my friends and I are meat eaters, we were drooling over our friend's vegetable entree. The chef/ owner had tons of vegetables and was able to accommodate vegetarians. I look forward to stopping through the next time I'm in Tecopa. By the way, he's closed from May - September. read more

I would have never thought to come here if it weren't for a "Flippin" lady who we met by chance waiting for the cafe to open by the Hot Springs. She ventured to Tecopa often and made some pretty big statements about this restaurant. While the dining room is two tables, a 3 seat bar, and menu of less than 15 items (mostly meat) this little restaurant was quite the welcome surprise. The Salisbury Steak was so flavorful it felt like we didnt even leave the city. Now I see why the Flippin lady talked up this restaurant. She didn't steer us wrong. I highly recommend! read more

Gotta love a place that's bringing back the Salisbury steak! Everything about this place is great: food, ambience, service, steaks, beer.... There are only a handful of seats, so you end up having a great conversation with all the other patrons, which end up being a collection of hippie RV types, glampers, and others passing through Tecopa. Come for the hot springs, stay for the steak and beer! read more

Now that there are a few more reviews of this place, I want to weigh in. We ate dinner this past fall. Not sure if we were there on an off-night, or if it was because we stated right at the outset that we were exploring, from our home in Vegas...a place that the proprietors have apparently fled from. Anyway, based on the 3 reviews at the time, we stopped here for dinner. We elected some rickety seating over the pond. It is kind of nasty, but luckily this area is too dry for mosquitoes. We asked the proprietor what interesting beers he had to offer. His response: Stella. Really?? A very boring Belgian pilsner is the best he has on offer. When we walked by the tiny interior of the restaurant on our way out, we saw lots of more exotic brews on offer, so we felt kind of dissed, since we were looking forward to trying something interesting at a place with "beer" in its name. Ordered ribeye and a salisbury steak dinners. The salad (and dressing) was very good: fresh & tangy. Hub liked his salisbury steak a lot. However, their "famous" potatoes were not even ready yet (by then its 5:30). And my ribeye was inedible. So tough & stringy that I struggled to hack two bites off it. Maybe it was a one-time problem with suppliers; in which case they should have suggested something else. So I was left wondering if it was "dumped" on me because I wasn't a local. (Any decent cook can tell a good steak from a bad one. I have never in my life selected a steak that poor, from the supermarket. And these guys supposedly have experience in major Vegas restaurants.) Yeah, more about the locals: by this time, the place was packed, and they were eating off-menu appetizers (we werent offered any "specials") and drinking interesting beers. When I mentioned to Eric that my steak was inedible, he shrugged and offered us free dessert. We hadn't been interested in dessert, but hey, I was still hungry! It was good...ice cream with locally sourced fruit sauce. But not memorable. From the disinterested beer offering, to the inedible ribeye, and even the lack of napkins, the vibe we got is that we weren't locals, so we weren't really welcome. I didnt mind the lack of amenities at all; we've had some great meals in some real dives. But if they don't want anyone but locals to frequent their establishment, they should be running a private club instead. If you are passing Tecopa and decide to give this place a try, I hope you have a better experience than us. read more

My husband and I had a Saturday night off and decided to drive out from Pahrump to try Steaks and Beer. When we arrived we first went to the brewery next door for a craft beer. We were getting hungry so I decided to walk over to Steaks , they are in the same building cluster as the brewery , separated by a swinging sign stating no beer from brewery allowed, so I set my beer down before continuing through. I walked through some stuff stored in a courtyard then into what appeared to be an unkempt yard with withered oleanders and a still pond. I made my way into what appeared to be a small shack. Upon entering the crowded front house there was a small table with 5 chairs , another table with 2 chairs in the path to the kitchen and a little bar with 2 chairs crammed into a 9'x9' dining area. It seems the one and only larger table was out by the still pond and was occupied by a large party and no other seating. It was 4:30 And I was told a party of six was coming at 5pm so if we were to be seated that we would be physically moved when the party of six came in. They wanted us to sit in the 2 seat table in the pathway of the kitchen , remember this is a 9x9 area , I declined and said I would come back at another time , I just wasn't feeling my business was important to them , my husband was starving by this time so we found a little rickety 2 seater cocktail table by their fire pit underneath a crusty oleander and ordered the dinner for two with the ribeye , they asked how we wanted it Cooke and my husband stated medium . We ordered a beer and resolved to enjoy our little corner. The appetizer of cheese , strawberries and crackers was just o.k. the cheese had some white spots and seemed a little old rather than aged. Then came the salad which was very good and had a flavorful dressing on a spring mix . Then the steak came out and was cooked well done , I was a little disappointed but the flavor was good. Cherries Jubilee for dessert. It was o.k. nothing to crave for . The whole experience was just mediocre. We got out of there for a bit more than $100.bucks . Cash . We probably will not eat there again . read more

Love, love, love this place. A hidden gem with absolutely amazing delicious food! The staff was friendly and accommodating for our large group. Will definitely go back again! read more

Delicious ribeye, big enough to share! Sadly we didn't stop in until the last night we were staying in Tecopa. I will definitely go back.

Quite possibly one of the best meals that I have ever had. A Filet with mashed potatoes and a vegetable mix. A dinner salad to start. Sounds simple, but Chef Eric is a former Las Vegas strip Chef, and he brings his expertise to the middle of nowhere. The place is small (it can only seat 11 at a time inside, and probably a dozen more outside). It is old. It is a dive. But the food makes it worth putting up with some of the little eccentricities. We were camping in the area and wondered in by following the sign along the road. But the place is so well known, there was a foursome that drove all the way from Vegas just to eat here. My wife and I thought that the food was outstanding, as did all of the other diners in the place when we were there (you are so close to everyone else, that overlapping conversation is nearly impossible to avoid). Eric is cordial, I wouldn't say warm and welcoming, but pleasant. I read some of the other reviews here and was surprised by their distaste for the food....truly, that was the best part of the place and a definite reason to go back the next time we are driving through the desert. read more

This place is a must stop for dinner is exploring the Shoshone mining district. Outstanding door, the owner was amazing and it was a highlight of our trip. MOST DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!! read more

We walked into the smallest restaurant in the world, and there were no empty tables. There were 3 guys sitting around a 4-top, and they invited us to join them (another chair was procured). Not being a big steak eater, I was going to order the burger--until one of my dining companions pointed out that the place isn't called "Burgers & Wine." So we split a massive steak (which was delicious), a massive salad (which was ethereal), and paired it with an IPA (which worked just fine). The cheese plate (which I didn't eat due to milk allergy) looked amazing (our new friends said it was so). The owner, Joe, is not only a great host, he's also a wealth of information about the area. We had a blast. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip to Death Valley! read more

We met friends for a day in Death Valley and then dinner @ S&B. Great meal! Fun place! Will recommend to all.

This is my favourite steak house, ever. Awesome service and a very kind and nice chef/ waiter who is really chill. The food is phenomenal. I almost guarantee that anything you order will be really great but I do recommend the 1/2 lb burger and/or the steak of course. Really good food. The ambience is also really sweet and you will not be disappointed. Desserts are home made and also very very nice. Could not find a flaw in this restaurant. Worth the drive from Vegas and plus I got to see how cool Death Valley was. MUST VISIT! read more
