What you should know about Chart House.
Chart House is best known for bringing the nationally recognized Chart House brand, founded in 1961 by Joey Cabell and Buzzy Bent in Aspen, Colorado, to Golden Nugget Las Vegas, extending a restaurant collection celebrated for combining premium seafood with architecturally distinctive waterfront-inspired dining rooms. The Las Vegas location centers its dining experience around a 75,000-gallon saltwater aquarium housing tropical fish and sharks, while the menu features signature favorites including Mac Nut Mahi, Prime Rib, Slow-Roasted Prime Rib, King Crab Legs, Ahi Tuna, Shrimp Fresca, Filet Mignon, Lobster Tails, Hot Chocolate Lava Cake, and the restaurant's renowned Chart House Salad Bar. The Chart House brand became part of Landry's, Inc., joining a hospitality portfolio that includes Morton's The Steakhouse, Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse, Mastro's Restaurants, and Saltgrass Steak House, while continuing to earn recognition for seafood sourcing, wine selections, and destination dining. Continued operation inside Golden Nugget, more than six decades of brand history, an internationally recognized aquarium dining room, and Landry's hospitality leadership have established Chart House among Downtown's premier seafood restaurants.
Fresh Alaskan king crab, mesquite-grilled mahi-mahi, buttery lobster, citrus, roasted garlic, drawn butter, fresh herbs, tender Prime Rib, and crisp seasonal vegetables establish a culinary theme rooted in premium coastal ingredients and classic American technique. Delicate Ahi Tuna, succulent shrimp, perfectly grilled Filet Mignon, chilled seafood towers, the celebrated Chart House Salad Bar, carefully selected wines, and warm Hot Chocolate Lava Cake deepen that foundation through balanced flavors, contrasting textures, and polished presentation. Precise seafood cookery, disciplined grilling, attentive sauce preparation, careful ingredient selection, and refined hospitality preserve the integrity of every dish while allowing premium seafood and steakhouse craftsmanship to remain the defining focus throughout the dining experience. Together Joey Cabell's founding vision, Landry's national hospitality leadership, the 75,000-gallon aquarium, and disciplined execution create a dining identity defined by elegance, craftsmanship, and enduring culinary distinction.
