What to order
JC Steakhouse is The Grand's American steakhouse — the strictest dress code at Moon Palace (long pants, collared shirt, closed shoes required), the most upscale room, and the best cuts of beef on the property. It's the table to book for a special occasion or anyone who wants a proper steakhouse dinner. Reserve on arrival day. Premium cuts (Porterhouse, Tomahawk) carry an additional charge above the all-inclusive rate.
- RibeyeThe most consistently praised cut at JC — well-marbled and properly seared; the benchmark order for a steakhouse dinner here.
- New York StripThe leaner alternative to the ribeye; order it medium for the best result at this kitchen.
- Beef CarpaccioThe appetizer guests call out by name — thin-sliced raw beef with capers and parmesan; a strong opener before the steak mains.
- Clam ChowderSingled out in multiple reviews as a highlight; the best soup on property and worth ordering even if you're not a typical chowder person.
- Chocolate Lava CakeThe dessert guests specifically mention — molten center, beautifully presented; the right finish after a steakhouse meal.
Porterhouse and Tomahawk steaks carry additional charges above the all-inclusive rate. Strictest dress code at Moon Palace — long pants, collared shirt, closed-toe shoes required for all guests 18+.
