A gift and a mug for father's day

Father’s Day Is One Week Away — Here’s Where to Take Dad and What to Book Now

Healthy Fact of the Day

Father's Day is one of the biggest restaurant days of the year — and a celebratory meal absolutely deserves to feel indulgent. If you're heading to a steakhouse, bone-in cuts like the Perry's Ribeye or Morton's Cajun Ribeye are naturally more flavorful with less need for heavy sauces, making them a slightly leaner choice than butter-laden preparations. For families choosing a buffet, starting with protein and vegetables before circling back for sides and dessert is a simple strategy that helps keep the plate more balanced without feeling like a sacrifice on a celebratory day. Most importantly — enjoy it. Dad deserves a great meal.

Father’s Day is next Sunday, June 21 — and if you haven’t made a reservation yet, now is the time. The best steakhouse and fine dining spots fill up fast for Father’s Day, and several deals require advance planning or purchases before the holiday arrives.

Here’s a full guide organized from splurge-worthy dinners to family-friendly deals — everything confirmed for 2026.

Book Now: The Upscale Options

Morton’s The Steakhouse

Morton’s is rolling out a special Father’s Day menu featuring Wagyu Beef Dumplings, a 16-oz Cajun Ribeye, and thick-cut onion rings with Black Truffle Aioli. If Dad is a steak lover, Morton’s is the move — but reservations go fast on Father’s Day. Book through OpenTable or Morton’s website now.

Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille

Perry’s is offering a 22-oz Bone-In Caramelized Prime Rib pecan-wood-fired and topped with Perry’s Steak Butter, Truffle Merlot Demi-glace, and homemade horseradish cream for $69 per person, available all day dine-in or to-go. Families can also add Perry’s 3-Course Pork Chop Sunday Supper alongside brunch cocktails. Available now through June 21.

Gift Card Bonus Worth Acting on Now

Applebee’s

The Bottom Line

Father’s Day is one week from today — and the difference between a great dinner and a scrambled backup plan comes down to whether you call ahead and book now. The Morton’s and Perry’s menus are the top-tier choices for steak lovers, but all of these deals are worth knowing before next Sunday arrives. Make a plan, make a reservation, and make Dad feel like the occasion he is.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Cantonese BBQ Brisket Is Back at Panda Express After Selling Out Earlier This Summer

Pairing a high-protein entrée with the right sides can help round out a more balanced meal. Consider choosing a vegetable-based side like mixed veggies instead of fried rice or chow mein to add fiber without extra refined carbs, and opting for a bowl over a plate if you’re looking to manage overall portion size while still getting the full protein benefit of the entrée.

Wendy’s Halloween Kids’ Meal Is Back — And Adults Are Ordering It Too

Kids’ meals are portioned smaller than adult entrées, which can actually make them a reasonable option for a lighter meal or a snack-sized treat. To keep things balanced, consider pairing the meal with a side of apple bites instead of fries, choosing a lower-sugar beverage like milk or water over a fountain drink, and treating the Frosty as a dessert to enjoy on its own rather than adding it on top of a larger meal.

A combo that includes fried chicken, two sides, and a biscuit can add up quickly in sodium and fat, especially depending on which sides you choose. To lighten the meal, consider swapping a fried side like fries for a lighter option such as green beans or coleslaw if available, and pairing the meal with water instead of a sweetened lemonade or tea to help cut back on added sugar.
