Rails Steakhouse is a modern American steakhouse offering carefully selected USDA Prime and CAB corn-fed beef, dry-aged a minimum of 28 days on-premise & hand-cut daily. We offer modern and contemporary dishes, including sustainable fresh seafood, homemade desserts, and an award-winning wine list recognized by Wine Spectator.

Attention to detail can be seen in this beautiful 20,000 sq. ft., restaurant where sprawling timber meets natural stonewalls, accents of glass showcase fire-and-water features in this luxe lodge. While all levels feature the same menu, the main dining room has a more sophisticated ambiance and Rafters on the second floor has a more casual lodge appeal. Descend to the lower level to find the secret passage that takes you to the wine cave, and Thirty 3, a speakeasy-style bar and lounge. Dine al fresco on our outdoor terraces offering spectacular views of the Pyramid Mountains. Most importantly, we want you to feel at home where our hospitality is second to none.

    I had heard about Rails from numerous people who have always raved about it. So, I was very excited in anticipation. The restaurant is beautiful right alongside the Towaco Railroad Station. Plenty of help valet parking but a bit of a walk to get inside. The ambiance is nice with an extensive top notch wine list. But our waitress was not as knowledgeable about the menus that might have been a good opportunity for an upsell for our order. And it was kind of hard to get over that my guest’s lobster tail arrived raw. In sending it back when I asked the waitress about it she said oh! I didn’t talk to them, they’re very busy with it being the holiday. . . Not a very good first impression. Not even an apology. I would go back though. And I understand you can take a tour and go through the secret door to the bar in the cellar. The menu is a la carte which make it seem expensive, but the prices are actually quite reasonable.

    I use to love this place but unfortunately on a Wednesday before Valentines perhaps drove our dissatisfaction. Cold Steak, slow service with little followup, and they sat us in a large private room instead of the main dining room (which that wasn’t a big deal). But cold steak not cooked to order - I’m not sure what happened.

    My friend and I had a great experience at Rails. I’m a Bourbon girl and I really enjoyed my cocktail, Doctor’s Orders. We ordered T-bone steaks with the Gouda bacon mac n cheese and creamed spinach. Excellent! We topped it off with the bread pudding.. one of the best we’ve ever had! We also have to mention that our waiter, Dylan, was extremely helpful and made it a much more enjoyable meal. We can’t wait to go back.

    As always, great drinks and service was impeccable. Was a loud evening, but that's not abnormal . Steaks were flavorful mine was a touch on the tough side but slightly undercooked but had great flavor " Tbone special" Oscar style . And as always, we topped the nite off with that amazing carrot cake .
