I work as a virtual CISO and am a Board Chair of Programs at ISACA. A networking group of mine attended Del Frisco's for dinner and one of the waiters, Robert Rutherford, gave us the most professional, friendly, unobtrusive, and exceptional service I have had in years. I spent 5 years as a bartender at Houston's on Kirby in my college years and it KILLS me when service is underwhelming. Robert CARES. And that is something you CANNOT teach. He was there at every moment we needed him without having to ask, but never inserted himself in a single conversation as executives from various enterprise organizations discussed topics important to them. I cannot say thank you enough for an exceptional experience that was made even better by service that was exemplary. THANK YOU ROB!! read more

I had dinner at Del Frisco's for a work meeting, which was overall a positive experience. I enjoyed most of the food and drinks, and the customer service was stellar. We had dinner reservations for 5:30pm on a Tuesday evening. This was my first time to any Del Frisco location. The place was your typical polished modern steakhouse, but the grand staircases also made the restaurant feel traditional. Gabby, our server, really went above and beyond. She was friendly and highly attentive. That said, I did think that our food took a while to arrive between courses. The time between our appetizers and main courses felt like forever. I had the pleasure of trying 3 cocktails: The VIP, Jailbird, and Premium Paloma. I could see why The VIP was their signature drink and most popular. I thought it was the tastiest of the 3. Jailbird was a nice, sweet cocktail. They used mezcal instead of tequila for the Premium Paloma, which added a smokiness to the Paloma that wouldn't normally be there. Do not skip on their table bread, which were like brioche buns. The pieces were pillowy soft and painted with butter. I tried a lot of items at dinner. Here were my impressions of each dish: Shanghai calamari (appetizer) - Great flavor because of the sweet & sour sauce. Not as crispy as I would've liked because it was drenched in the sauce. Sashimi (appetizer) - Basic. I would skip this next time. Shrimp cocktail (appetizer) - Why they say, "Everything is bigger in Texas." This dish puts shrimp cocktails elsewhere to shame. The shrimp were big and meaty. Loved that they deshelled the tail for you, so we got meat all the way to the tip of the tail. Grilled asparagus (side) - One of the side dishes but not your average asparagus. This was another "Everything is bigger in Texas" type of dish. The jumbo asparagus were perfectly al dente and had a light seasoning on top. Loved these as well. Creamed corn (side) - This was cool. Similar to creamed corns I've had elsewhere. Chateau mashed potatoes (side) - Had a spoonful of this. Fine side. Lobster Mac & Cheese (side) - Absolutely worth the splurge. The lobster was plentiful. Chilean sea bass (entree) - Very flavorful dish, but admittedly I've had better quality Chilean sea bass at other restaurants. I'm pretty sure that this was made from frozen. The edges were much flakier than the center, which didn't pull apart as easily. Hibiscus cheesecake (dessert) - Solid Lemon cake (dessert) - OK Warm butter cake a la mode (dessert) - Best of the 3 desserts I tried. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night to celebrate my friend and I's birthday. I like the location and the decor. I order the sushi roll which was delicious. But I was highly disappointed that we were charged $7 for the "celebration cake." We didn't ask for it but when I booked through OpenTable, I noted it was a birthday as the reason for the reservation. I wish our waiter would have told us but he didn't. So BE WARE, of the $7 charge if you are celebrating a birthday. Bad business under deception. read more

Came here for a work meeting - private room upstairs great for meetings and presentations. Fix course menu - got the wedge salad with blue cheese, filet mignon (asked for medium turned out more medium rare but still great flavor), pork chop with very solid flavoring as well. Got dessert to go (not pictured). The bread smelled really good and tasted just as expected too. Service attentive staff Overall this experience is limited to private room dining upstairs recommend for events booking. Food wise can't go wrong with filet or pork chop. read more

Del Frisco is easily among my top 3 for fanciest steakhouses in htx came here on a week night and restaurant was pretty packed. Plenty of parking spots in front but for valet only ($13) Del's salad is a great choice if you want a light starter. Or if you prefer more dressing, opt for blue cheese lettuce wedge. For entrées, we had the 8oz filet mignon (medium) that was cooked to perfection perfection (100/10) and the 16oz prime strip (medium rare) - very generous portion! These were easily among the best steaks we had this year! For the sides, chateau mashed potatoes were a big hit (everyone was talking abt this must-order!). Not to mention green beans, they were also very well-seasoned Chocolate mousse and cheesecake are good options for desserts, very beautifully decorated. Overall, very luxurious vibe! This two story steakhouse located inside the Galleria is worth your visit 100%! We will come back!! read more

I almost went to try Guard & Grace for the first time, but just felt like coming here, bc I missed this place and my last experience here was so good. Same again tonight. Like last time, I had the NY Strip (wet-aged) cooked cool rare and had a nice slice of that Lemon Cake for dessert. I also drank a cold, crispy, bitter Sauvignon Blanc with my steak. The meat was so well-seasoned, easy to cut but not mushy, blueish red inside with a great crust on top. Very delicious and consistent in every bite. The fattiness to beefiness proportion was ideal. The cake was very delicious, very soft, very moist and a perfect balance of tangy n sweet. The lemony layers n flour combo in the piece were balanced to make each other stand out. I still need to try their newer chocolate mousse cake next time. The service was so welcoming, friendly and efficient on this visit. read more

Expectations exceeded! So after having a lackluster experience the first time at Del Friscos, I was contacted by the manager, Laura. She was extremely understanding of our issues and assured me that our visit did not meet their high standards and offered to have my wife and I come back out and try them again. I did not plan to ever go back prior to her reaching out. I'm definitely glad we did. We started by ordering a bottle of Orin Swift Merlot which turned out to be a great choice and a perfect pairing. For appetizers we went with the shrimp cocktail and the Lobster Tempura. The shrimp cocktail had a really great hot mustard in addition to the typical cocktail sauce and I found myself constantly going back to it. The lobster Tempura I'm told was an old favorite and typically an "off menu item". Big fried lobster tails nestled over a huge onion ring. Accompanied by an aoli for the lobster and ranch dressing for the onion ring. This was a great appetizer. The grilled lemon went perfect with the lobster as well. Steak time! We both went with the 22oz bone-in Ribeye. Let me tell you something, we both ordered toppers but the steaks were seasoned so perfectly they weren't even necessary. I had the bourbon peppercorn sauce and my wife got the garlic butter. I'm glad we got them on the side because they were completely unnecessary. The chef nailed the seasoning and cooked them to temp perfectly. Coast to coast crust with incredible medium rare inside. This is a steak to brag about. For sides we shared the truffle fries and lobster Mac. The truffle fries were spot on perfect and the Mac n cheese was indulgent and delicious with good portions of that succulent lobster. I'm glad we gave the Mac n cheese another chance because this time around it was top tier. We finished the meal with the strawberry cheesecake and it was great way to cap off the meal. The restaurant is beautiful and I recommend getting a table upstairs if possible. The service from Robert, was exceptional the whole night. Laura and fellow manager Brian, both came by as well. I will say Laura is an absolute asset to the company. Her genuine care for the customer experience is really remarkable. Thank you for having us out, Laura. And compliments to the whole staff, as last night was exactly what a date night at high end steakhouse should look like. read more

We had a nice quiet birthday dinner on a Sunday night. The restaurant was practically empty but the atmosphere was nice and the service was great. We stared with the parker rolls and they were delicious. The crab cake and shrimp appetizers were okay. We shared the Tomahawk steak, baked potato, and lobster Mac and cheese. All were 10/10. I love when the plates are hot! We had a complimentary slice of birthday cake and it was good. They also included a birthday card signed by the staff. read more

Met up with two friends for an early dinner at Del Frisco's, and we decided to sit at the bar. We started with the shrimp appetizer, which was tasty, and I had the salmon for my entrée, also really good. Here's the thing though... it was freezing inside. I'm all for a cool setting because it's hot and humid out, but this was next-level cold. I was so uncomfortable that I ended up rushing through my meal just so I could leave. Definitely not the vibe you want when you're trying to enjoy dinner with friends. Sadly, they couldn't alter the temp because I surely asked them to. The food was solid, service was great, but the temperature of the restaurant really overshadowed the experience. A great meal deserves a more comfortable setting. read more

After leaving a venue on New Years Eve(absolutely horrid place), my sister and I, in our hangryness, called around for a restaurant that didn't have a prie fix menu. I am so glad we went to Del Friscos because the ambiance, service, and food was utterly fantastic! So, while the place was booked, there was room at the bar and we could just choose a high top............ so we just left the other venue for them sitting us at a high top when we didn't choose that seating. I dislike high top tables. However, the high top tables at Del Friscos were comfortable and classy. We ordered drinks. My sister got one called Land something and she loved it. Mine, of course, was a mocktail which included zero proof rum and orange and guava flavors. I It was really really good! When you get your drinks you get complementary milk bread rolls that had a sweet butter on them like a honey butter. They were absolutely warm and delicious! While I didn't want an appetizer, my sister can't turn down truffle fries. They bring out SO many in a bowl accompanied by ketchup. While I didn't want an appetizer, I ate a few of the fries and the were very tasty. They didn't have that strong truffle oil, theirs were light, crispy on the inside and soft on the inside. Pretty tasty! For dinner, since we are both trying to remain healthy, we shared the seabass with crab fried rice and a drizzle of some sauce and it was scrumptious! So delicious and palate pleasing! The seabass was seasoned well and those wonderful flakes of fish in my mouth was so juicy, tender, and hits your tongue with that delicious bring goodness. I'll definitely be back soon! The ambiance, service, and foot was too notch. We really enjoyed our well-paced meal! 10 out of 10, would recommend!! read more

Amazing. Came here for a talk and the service was speedy with delicious food. The shrimp cocktail was perfectly plump shrimp with just enough cocktail sauce.

My wife took me here for my birthday. This place was amazing. We had reservations so we were seated promptly. The service was awesome. We started off with the shrimp appetizers. They were so good. For the entree I order the 32oz tomahawk steak, lobster mac, and loaded bake potato. My wife and daughter ate off it as well. The decor and ambiance was beautiful with the dimmed lights was really a vibe. I enjoyed myself with family. Will definitely visit again. Cheers to 47! read more

Wow--I'm legitimately impressed. The decor, cleanliness, drinks, service, ambience, and food were all top notch. Even the bread at the beginning was amazing and unlike any I've had before. Our waiter was one of the best I've ever had and clearly understood how to offer great service. It was definitely very expensive but (unfortunately) in line with other restaurants of this kind. I highly recommend Del Friscos. read more

We visited during Houston Restaurant Week. Be aware that parking is challenging; while there is free parking in the Galleria garages, it's a bit of a walk. We opted for the convenient $12 valet, which accepts cash or phone payment. The restaurant has a strict policy of not seating parties until more than half of the group has arrived, and our host was somewhat standoffish. However, this was quickly forgotten once we were seated. Our waiter was absolutely amazing and provided excellent suggestions that did not disappoint. We started with the creamy lobster bisque (though I wished for more lobster pieces) and the dynamite shrimp, which was tasty with a slight kick. For our mains, the filet mignon was perfect with an incredible crust, and the sesame-crusted ahi tuna was so tender it was like biting into a cloud. For dessert, the chocolate mousse in its edible cup was a delight, and the butter cake was perfectly rich with a wonderfully crusty exterior. Despite the initial hiccups, the outstanding food and service from our waiter made for a great evening. read more

Beautiful restaurant in the heart of the Houston Galleria easily located directly off Westheimer. Valet available in front of restaurant which was perfect for a quiet Monday night while meeting a work associate who had hosted an event in Dallas of my fave yelper and was in Htown for a few hours. The ambiance is absolutely beautiful here with marble staircases and glass chandeliers. Service was very cordial and attentive at the full service bar downstairs for Acqua Panna water( my favorite) and a decent selection of vinos. Will absolutely return for dinner in a future visit . read more

This steakhouse is elegant and romantic and is perfect for an intimate date night or celebration of a special occasion. The night we were there, the food was so good that it easily ranks as one of my top three meals in the year 2024. The crab cake was the best that I've had in a long time, simply because it was made with all fresh crab meat with no fillers. It was literally 100% shredded crab meat lumped into a cake. It was accompanied by a delicious Cajun lobster cream sauce and topped with a sprinkle of green onions. What an excellent appetizer to start the night! The ahi tuna was sesame crusted and seared on the outside while the inside was still completely rare like sashimi. The fish tasted very fresh and flavorful. The sliced fish sat on top of a refreshing daikon radish salad and the plate was garnished beautifully with wasabi emulsion. The filet mignon was well crusted with black pepper and seasonings on the outside and had a perfectly medium rare temperature inside. The meat was melt-in-your-mouth tender, succulent, and carried a savory beefy flavor. For sides we ordered roasted broccolini and a blend of sautéed mushrooms, both of which were excellent. For dessert we indulged in a tiramisu crème brûlée that was sinfully good. Service was top-notch throughout our dinner and our server checked with us often to make sure we had everything that we needed but without getting too intrusive. Highly recommend! read more

We chose Del Frisco to celebrate our anniversary. They have valet parking which is your best out as they are located in the Galleria area. We had reservations so we were seated immediately. They had a nice touch with a Happy Anniversary card signed by the staff on our table. My wife had a margarita with an extra shot of Grand Mariner and I had a Moscow mule drink. I had a wedge salad and she had crab cakes. She had sea Bass with Crab fried rice and I a filet mignon and we shared the Crawfish Mac and Cheese. We also shared a butter cake. Everything was delicious and more than enough as we took several to go boxes. It was an excellent visit and highly recommended. read more

What a great place for a meeting. Have been here many times for work events. Each time, the food and service were great. Love the upstairs open wine room. Beautiful space. Perfect for a holiday event or a dinner meeting. From appetizers and wedge salads to entrees and heavenly chocolate desserts, the food is delicious. Don't look at the bottom of the silver tray holding the bread. It is literally swimming in a sea of melted butter (which is probably what makes it so delicious.) read more

Got seated right away with reservation. Appetizers were great and out quick. Steak was cooked as ordered and the drinks were strong.

Came here for my birthday and the restaurant was practically empty. The server was great and had recommendations. I used to be a consistent customer back in the day. The recipes have changed and the portion sizes have decreased for a few dishes. The crab cake use to be my favorite but it doesn't taste the same anymore. The drinks were okay. Our waiter said he had to coach the bartender on how to make our sidecars. The espresso martinis was about the best thing. read more

Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse - Menu - Steakhouses Near Me - Houston, Texas

Del Frisco's is usually a favorite of mine, and I was excited to check out their Houston Restaurant Weeks menu. I went with the lobster bisque, filet mignon, and butter cake. The bisque was runny and underseasoned, and my mashed potatoes were a little off, but the steak was spot-on and the butter cake was divine (truly the star of the night). Service was attentive and my waiter was friendly -- the experience reminded me why I've dined here so many times before. This particular visit felt like an off night in the kitchen, but when Del Frisco's is on, it's a solid choice for a special dinner. read more

Del Friscos has a reputation of being a great steakhouse. I will tell you, it didn't disappoint. The steaks were some of the best I've ever had. However, I will say, the steaks were bit overpriced compared to similar restaurants. For example, the bone in filet was about $100. This is just for the steak and not the sides! My only complaint is when the server asked if I wanted garlic butter on my steak I said no. I ended up receiving garlic butter anyway and was charged $12 extra for the butter! I won't hold this against the restaurant considering it was a server error. However, maybe management can inform servers to let guest know that it's an extra charge for things like butter. This does seem to be becoming standard practice in high end restaurants, but I can see how customers might become upset with all these extra charges. I believe that it would be a nice touch to just have these options with no charges. Restaurants like Taste of Texas do this and include other things like bread which I believe brings customers back. Anyways, the butter could have possibly made the steaks shine because they were absolutely delicious. I was surprised at how could a New York strip could taste. The crabcake was among the best in the city. The lobster Mac and cheese was delicious and actually fairly priced considering how much other restaurants charge. There was a decent amount of lobster too, which was much appreciated. The butter cake was really good, but didn't make it to my top 5 dessert list or anything like that. I would be open to trying other desserts during my next visit to compare. The restaurant was beautiful and luxurious. They had some sort of live music entertainment which added to the experience. Service was good, besides the minor mistake with the extra $12 butter. Definitely get the butter though, because it was actually great tasting butter! This restaurant is one I would recommend for steak lovers to experience on a special occasion. I think many will be surprised of how could the steaks are. read more

If you go to Del Frisco's, sit at the bar and ask for Taylor P. Seriously ,one of the best bartender experiences I've had in a long time. Taylor was friendly, attentive, and made the whole night feel special. Drinks were on point and he stayed on top of everything without us ever having to ask. You can tell he really cares about giving great service. Great bartender + great energy + great drinks = perfect night. Taylor P is a gem behind the bar. Will definitely be back. read more

Taylor - bomb ass bartender! The best. Steaks- filet and strip. Cooked perfectly. Flavor on point. I recommend the steaks. Did the crab cake- was good but not the champ. Good flavor really crab. I will say. Also tried the lemon cake- also very good! Relaxed atmosphere and good people to talk to. Over all- on par with top steak houses in the area! I will say the strip and the filet my wife had was great cuts of meat and cooked perfectly and were wonderfully cooked! Gin martini was a must! read more

Sat at the bar and had a great experience thanks to Taylor P. He was friendly, attentive, and clearly knew his drinks.

Made reservations to celebrate a special birthday and this place did not disappoint! We were seated timely and everyone from the hostess to our waitress was very friendly. Food was amazing!! We started with the lobster bisque and the bread basket. Both were so delicious! I didn't expect the portions and almost got full off of those alone - I'll repeat the bread was SO good, we inhaled that pretty quickly and I wouldn't have been able to turn down a refill. We got the braised short rib and the 16oz bone-in ribeye. Both were very good and flavorful - ribeye outshined the short rib in terms of depth of flavor and how juicy it was. Truffle fries and drinks (mule and old fashioned) also matched the caliber of the rest of the spread. All in all, this was a really nice dining experience! read more
