| - Larsen's is a nice addition to the Galleria Mall that gives us an option for an upscale steakhouse without having to leave Henderson. We came here for my wife's birthday on a Wednesday which just happened to be Wine Wednesday at Larsen's where any bottle of wine under $100 was half price. This allowed us to get two bottles for our meal and made the celebration that much more enjoyable.
Park on either level of parking on the south side of the mall and you can get to the restaurant through its outdoor entrance in just a short walk. Using OpenTable, we made reservation for 9 at 7:15 and our table was ready as soon as we arrived. We were seated at a long table in the middle of the restaurant. The space was open with high ceilings, many wooden beams, and windows that were floor to ceiling that allowed plenty of light to come in and gives a full view of the outdoors.
Michael served us and did an excellent job giving us an overview of the restaurant, the specials for the day, and recommendations for the discounted wine. The foundation of Larson's menu is their steaks. They serve both select and prime cuts which are aged wet and dry respectively. Bonuses to the menu are the steaks are served with one side and there is also a sushi roll section.
Two appetizers, nine entrees, and four desserts were ordered (see pictures). For entree, I had the 10 oz, grass fed, dry aged, prime filet with the creamed spinach. I requested the filet cooked rare and Michael was considerate enough to ask if I wanted the cut to be seared and I'm happy I did get it seared because it allowed me to taste all the seasonings. The marbled steak was delicious and cooked perfectly. The creamed spinach was one of the best sides I've had this year. The butter cake was the best dessert and highly recommended.
The price for the meal before tip was just over $400 which makes the $$$ price point just about right. Some little things kept the meal from being perfect such as we had to top our wine glasses ourselves, the bus person didn't take the silverware also when removing the plates after each course (luckily, Michael replaced all silverware before each course arrived), and all of the entrees were brought out in stages with the the birthday girl's food coming a good 7-8 minutes after everyone else's food arrived.
None of these things will keep us from coming back and I'm looking forward to the next visit when I'm in the mood for a juicy steak.
