Whether for a special occasion or simply treating yourself, nothing satisfies like a steak dinner. If you’d like to learn more about the best steakhouses around Highlands Ranch, then check out these area favorites:

Duke’s Steakhouse

When the Breeding and Minarick families decided to offer an exceptional dining experience, they opened Duke’s Steakhouse. Named after the Breeding’s Grand Champion bull, the restaurant serves perfectly aged beef. Guests enjoy their meals in a warm setting featuring cozy red booths and a romantic fireplace. The waitstaff ensures a memorable dining experience, and they turn first-time diners into regulars. All of the steak dinners come with steamed vegetables and a baked potato. Choices include New York strip, top sirloin, and filet of tenderloin.

Trapper’s Chop House 

Known as an airy, upscale hideaway, Trapper’s Chop House features American fare and Rocky Mountain views. It offers a unique sear-it-yourself experience where diners prepare their entree on an 800-degree volcanic rock. The eatery draws a crowd, and it’s called one of the “most interactive restaurants in Denver” by USA Today. The dining area features sophisticated decor, and happy hour runs daily from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Steaks include Trapper sirloin, NY strip, and filet mignon. They’re served with your choice of rice pilaf or jalapeno-cheddar mashed potatoes. 

Shanahan’s 

Shanahan’s offers a modern interpretation of the classic Denver steakhouse. Mike Shanahan’s Lombardi trophies greet visitors, and several televisions show the latest game. Contemporary paintings hang throughout, while imported Italian lighting adds texture and warmth. Steaks include Wagyu ribeye tomahawk, dry-aged Prime Kansas City strip, and filet mignon. For dessert, try the key lime pie.
