    After my birthday dinner! Look at those beautiful deserts!!
    Alexis B.

    I love this place! Everything is so fresh! The salads are huge, and I highly recommend the black bean soup and the clam chowder! They taste homemade! I always get the filet, and it has always been cooked to my liking. The seasonings they put on their steaks is so good and unique too! The broccoli and potato au gratin is so yummy and cheesy! However, be aware that their sides are meant to share or to take home for leftovers! The deserts are out of this world! My family always chooses a couple to share as we can't pick just one! The creme brûlée, the chocolate cake, the cheesecake, and the pie. The service is also always phenomenal as they are very accommodating and helpful! Del Frisco's is definitely my favorite local steakhouse, and I highly recommend it for special evenings.

    RIBEYE STEAK (12 TO 14 OZ.)
    Tamika W.

    I visited Del Frisco's to celebrate my birthday and was really looking forward to the experience. The service was truly excellent. Our servers were friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of the entire time. I ordered the ribeye steak, which was just okay. But not quite as flavorful or memorable as I had hoped. My friend ordered the fried shrimp and unfortunately as shrimp lovers, we weren't fans of that dish at all. The Caesar salad dressing is made in-house, which I usually appreciate, but it had a very oily taste and didn't quite hit the mark for anyone at our table. On a brighter note, the strawberry lemon drop cocktail was really good! All in all everyone at my table felt the same: The service and drinks were great, but the food could use some improvement.

    Del frisco's is a high end and very nice steak house in the east end community of louisville Kentucky. My wife birthday was last week and me and her made it a goal a year or so ago that on our birthdays and special occasions we was going to try a new fancy reputable steakhouse in our area. So del friscos was up next on our list. We weee able to call early in the morning and get a same day reservation right at 5pm opening. The interior is very intimate with very low lighting and modern decor. We started off with a calamari appetizer. While waiting for our app they offer up there complimentary bread which is phenomenal. Very fresh and great flavor. I'd say top 5 Dinner roll/bread I've had before. The calamari came out and it had a nice flavor. Very crispy and the marinara was a classic taste. A lot of places overthink calamari sauce when sometimes old fashioned marinara does the trick. For our entrees I got the ribeye and my wife got the New York strip. Both steaks came out cooked the way ordered. Which is always a plus. My ribeye was very tender and had a nice flavor. The topping had like a garlic buttery sauce on top which was a unique twist for a ribeye. My wife new York strip she said was phenomenal. I tried a bite and she was right. Very tender with a nice crisp. I actually enjoyed it more than my ribeye and I'm usually always a ribeye person. Our our service was top notch. My wife received a complimentary birthday cake which was a good size and easily fed us both. Very nice free birthday treat. I did get an after dinner cocktail callers grasshopper which is a mint chocolate alcoholic drink. For those who love mint chocolate (guilty) this is a great drink. Was very satisfied with it. Overall a very good and enjoyable birthday dinner. Good service, great bread, good calamari, very good steaks and some tasty treats. That's how you celebrate a birthday if you ask me.

    The food was ok, don't get the oysters... they are large and not on a shell, so really hard to eat. The crab cakes were really great. The service wasn't great, but we were there a day after the derby.... They gave us a free dessert to make up for it, so points for that. The atmosphere was nice - a typical low light steakhouse. We went back for a second night since our hotel was close.... And it was amazing. Great food, service, everything!!

    Imitation lobster?

    We have been to multiple times ti Del Frisco's (DF) in Philadelphia and it was spectacular. So sad that this Louisville location can't compare. The meal tasted just better than a cafeteria. We happened to have eaten ate at Capitol Grille (GH) the night prior and Del Frisco's was such a let down. We thought it would be at par or better. The bread was old and stale and seemed straight off a grocery store shelves vs fresh. The difference of the CG lobster bisque to the DF version was night and day. Del Frisco's bisque is imitation lobster at best - seems unethical to claim it as lobster. The bisque was better but ruined by the lack of actual lobster. The New York steak was the best of the options our party was served. Del Frisco's Trio and the Filet Mignon 8-10oz werr so smothered in butter you couldn't taste the flavor of the meat. The steak knives were delivered after the meal arrived and all just seemed rushed and dumped vs served. Had to ask for knives, fresh ground pepper, etc. The wine list was adequate and the Strawberry Lemongrass Cosmo tasted like watered down cough syrup, so had to let that sit. Caesar Salad tasted like all oil vs anything else. Creme Brulee had nice berries on it, not much flavor otherwise and crust was too think. Ambiance was non existent when you are seated in the back corner of the back room even with a reservation. Doesn't live up to the price point paid at almost $150/person. Potatoes Au Gratin, good. Nothing was really worth a photo. Staff was nice enough.

    Broccoli Au Gratin

    To celebrate a big win professionally, my husband treated me to a family dinner at Del Frisco's. We had reservations for 4 on Friday evening and were seated right away upon arrival. From beginning to end the service was stellar. It's clear the employees work as a team and strive to provide an incredible dining experience. Atmosphere-wise, Del Frisco's - even with a move to a new location - feels old school, but not in an upscale "classic" way. Instead it reminded me of the downtown hotels before their renovation. It's dimly lit with dark wooden decor and minimal decor. We were tucked into the back of the restaurant where I looked at a wall for the evening. Very boring and I found myself wishing we'd picked another steakhouse for atmosphere alone. The meal was enjoyable; however, the only thing we've all talked about since the dinner was the complimentary bread. We ate a lot of that! Three of us got tossed salads and while the portion was plentiful, each of us had browning lettuce mixed in the bowl. Of the 4 sides we enjoyed the onion rings but left the steak fries, asparagus and broccoli au gratin sitting. The broccoli was extremely peppery and none of us would eat more than the first bite. Each of us got different cuts of steaks. My choice was the filet mignon medallions which came with a choice of 3 add on butters. I ordered it medium well which was still fairly pink and made me thankful I didn't request medium. Each medallion was 4 Oz and very soft texture-wise. All of our plates were very hot and the steaks were sitting it a large amount of butter/oil. After awhile that became unappetizing. If ordering again I'd choose a thicker cut of steak to combat the ratio of butter to meat. Overwhelming. We ended with a slice of NY cheesecake because my kids hadn't eaten it before. Decent portion. Overall we enjoyed our time as a family (about a 2 hr meal), but I think it's safe to say we weren't impressed enough to return or recommend.

    Crab cakes
    Yiesha B.

    Went to Kentucky for a concert and we ate here for dinner... The BEST thing we had was the loaded baked potato. The crab cakes had absolutely no crab in it. It was just cake and the steak was ok. We ate at the bar and the waitress apologized and said that they had new staff but our overall experience food wise was disappointing. This restaurant was suggested by the lady at the front desk of our hotel so we thought we'd try it. The ambiance is nice but again if you're looking for a decent steak and appetizer I would not suggest this place. Really wanted to like it but the presentation, wine and food is a hard pass....

    TOURNEDOS DEL FRISCO'S
    Logan S.

    The service was on point, waiter was polite and friendly. The reason for the 3 stars is because of the Lobster Bisque, it was served with imitation crab meat. It was spicy and tasted like something I would get a Costco. I really enjoy bisque and get it almost everytime I'm at a restaurant, I was hoping for something closer to what Ruby's serves. The Tournedos was very tasty, the filet were all good cuts off beef. The potatoes were fluffy and the burgundy sauce was delicious. I'd like to give Del Frisco's another shot and try other menu items.

    Unfortunately the current service is not up to the old Del Frisco's standards. Nor does the bar know how to make an aperol spritz.

My brother got a cup of the tomato bisque, which is served with puff pastry on top. For dinner, we ordered carbonara, jumbo shrimp limone, and lasagna. Everything was delicious and came with MORE BREAD. YAY! Much came home with us but it all was enjoyed by lunchtime today. Delicious. For dessert, my mom will always bring something from her own freezer. Some restaurants may frown on this, but our server brought us plates and forks, a knife for cutting the small cake, and even 2 little candles to blow out and the lighter to light them. So sweet. She also brought us a happy birthday decorated plate of little canolis, which were much better than that store bought cake. Lol Can't wait to return, especially for drinks and appetizers. There is a beet and burrata salad I've got my eye on! (I can't believe I didn't take any other photos)

I had the fried shrimp, and they clearly were NOT just frozen shrimp they'd bought somewhere and fried, these seemed homemade. . .definitely NOT typical mass-production shrimp. The food was pretty good. There's two things I would list as downsides, however. The first is that the wait for service was pretty long. It was quite a long wait from when I ordered until I got my food. That's a minor downside, given the quality. I got the picture they might not have a robust back-of-house staff. The second, and bigger downside is. . .I didn't go there expecting a seafood place! The well-worn sign out front still says "Deez Butts" BBQ, and I'd followed signs from the freeway exit thinking I was going to a barbecue joint. When I stepped inside, I pieced together as I was standing in line that the BBQ had closed and this was now a seafood place. It was good food, but I was expecting barbecue and was too hungry to bother hunting for another place to eat. I was left wondering if they couldn't afford to change the (well worn) sign out front. It just seemed a little odd that the sign out front is for a barbecue joint, but it's a seafood place inside.

My husband loved the veggies and risotto but was not thrilled with the chop. He wishes he would have asked for a steak knife as it was difficult to cut with the butter knife provided. It was tender enough but neither of us cared for the flavor. I had the Primavera. It was a bit bland. I had to salt it several times. Our favorite part of the meal was dessert. We had a piece of lemoncello cake that was flavorful, creamy and light. We both thought it was great. We had about $20 left on our gift card and were disappointed we couldn't use the balance as the tip. So we ordered two more desserts to bring home to use the balance of the gift card. We brought homemade a piece of Italian cream cake that was as good or better than the lemoncello cake and it was a huge piece of cake. We also have a piece of caramel sea salt cheesecake which was pretty good. It was loud in the small space and a bit difficult to have a conversation across the table. The background music did not help with this issue. The staff were friendly and helpful boxing up our leftovers. Tables have white cloth tablecloths and the owner was making rounds to greet all the patrons which was nice. We discovered there is parking in the back of the restaurant, as so many of the spaces in the area have signs indicating you will be towed if you park there. We had to park on the street about a block down.

These are not traditional beignets. These are heavy, flat, limp square-shaped dough of unknown origin. They stick to the roof of your mouth - literally. Not ideal. We are from South Louisiana. Honestly, they would be better served using a mix from Cafe du Monde in New Orleans or Coffee Call in Baton Rouge. The mixes also are not as good as the places make them in Louisiana, but they would be a far better cry than what is being served. The grits and eggs are devoid of flavor.
