Just came back and had their lunch specials! they are closed on Mondays and Tuesdays! We really love this place, it'll be our go to place now! We also love our waitress Rebecca, she's so friendly and always chat with us! She's the best! We had the lunch specials, FRIED ATLANTIC COD TACOS (tempura fried cod, corn or flour tortillas, cabbage, jalapeno cilantro aioli, pico de gallo, french fries) and SHRIMP BASKET (4 fried gulf shrimp, french fries, tartar sauce) the lunch special also come with tea or soda! I love the crunchiness of the fried Atlantic Cod, it was done perfectly with a very light tempura battered! The owner came by and thank us for coming back, I guess he remembered us!

Fish and Chips

Nice photo op spot!

Cute restaurant! Made reservations for 4 for dinner on a Friday night and met some friends there. Inside seemed kinda loud when we checked in so we sat outside on the huge patio. It ended up being pretty loud as well and huge fans were blowing which helped keep the flies away but was a little annoying. We moved over to an empty table next to us and that helped keep us out of the wind tunnel. We had a great time catching up with our friends. We looked over the menu and placed our orders. There was some live entertainment setting up and once it got going it was very hard to keep conversing. The food was very good and the manager came by our table to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. Our friend had seen the chef/owner? on TV do an interview and that's how we found Didi's Downtown. We would definitely come back again!

Philly egg rolls

Good food and great service from Simone x2! Love this spot, we came last week and ran it back for a special we saw online. Unfortunately, they ran out of ribeyes but!!! They were able to accommodate and replaced the steak for NY strip! We've gotten the redfish on both visits and it hit every time. Great experience all around, they'll definitely be seeing me again. :)

Visited this restaurant tonight for a date night and loved that they had live entertainment on their patio. This restaurant is really cute and cozy consisting of an indoor and outdoor sitting areas. I ordered the blackened shrimp tacos and a spicy pineapple ranch water drink. They were both fabulous as far as taste and presentation. Our waiter was nice and service was ok however I did feel at the end my waiter was a bit in a rush to take our food away although I was not done with my food yet. We also had the opportunity to meet the owner/ chef who was really kind and personable.

Strawberry mint ranch water is yummy

So glad we came! It was bustling for a weekday night in suburbia, and we were about to discover why. Hostesses were sweet and we were sat immediately. Our server Simone was extremely professional and thorough. Special thanks to Ava for providing extra service in regards to my spicy cravings. We met chef/ owner Scott, who was all over the restaurant ensuring every patron was enjoying themselves and experiencing high standards. Not only was he interesting and funny, you could feel the passion and hospitality he exuded. The menu had plenty of choices that piqued my interest, particularly the seafood. My husband and I are grateful for one of the best date night/ dining adventures we've had in a while. Service, drinks and food exceeded all expectations and we will be returning!

Philly and hot chicken sandwiches

What amazing food and service! We started with the special fried deviled eggs. Lightly breaded and served warm. The best ever! My husband had the Philly cheese steak and I had the hot honey chicken sandwich. They both were delicious. The chicken was not spicy, lightly breaded, thin and I definitely took half home! The drink & beer list is large and the specials change weekly. Happy hour Wednesday-Sunday, not Saturdays, 3-6. Live music every night 6:30 to close. Chef Scott stopped by our table and visited. Great food, back patio area and cozy room inside. Brunch menu on Saturday & Sunday 11-2. We will be back often!!

Hippy Kai Yay Didi Goers! This cute little southern gem is the place to be on a Friday night! As I walked in to this cute little restaurant I was welcomed by Didi herself. She gave us a big hug and asked how our day was harvesting the crops down yonder. As I warmed up my dreary bones by the nice fire Didi brought over some delicious Philly Cheesesteak eggrolls. She was telling us that she just came back from a trip from Philadelphia and had this idea of making a Philly Cheesesteak eggroll! How witty of her. Then she spent her whole day fishing out by the Frisco lake and caught some catfish and redfish! She sure is a hard worker. As I finished the egg rolls there she comes with the main courses! Fresh catch of the day YUM! God bless Didi.

Lunch Special
Samone B.

We had a really great experience. We sat out on the patio and there were plenty of fans to keep us cool. The food was good & fresh. It is also very reasonably priced. The atmosphere reminded us a lot of Austin, TX. The service was great & the staff worked as a team making sure everyone was taken care of. We will definitely visit again.

Canadian bacon & Mushroom omelette, Mimosas
Tonya F.

This place has been on our "Must go" list, so after church we decided to go check out brunch & so glad we did! Our sever, Sydney was excellent! The Chef came over to our table, nice touch! The mushrooms in the omelette had a yummy smoky taste! Next time we'll start with the beignets we were just too full this time! Can't wait to try "Social Hour" too! Loved the decor and the patio with music is so cool!

Nicole H.

We always drive past this place so we were excited to finally give it a try. We ordered the short rib benedict and Nashville chicken and waffle sandwich. They have great hospitality but the food was over cooked. Short rib was dry, poached egg was basically hard boiled, fried chicken was over fried and very bland for Nashville style fried chicken. The potatoes were good though.

Half of the barbecue chicken and macaroni
Lauren B.

We come here for the patio and live music! The service is always great and everyone is extra friendly. We tried the loaded fries, hot honey chicken sandwich, side Caesar and the bbq chicken and macaroni. The loaded fries were extra cheesy and very good. The hot honey chicken was a little disappointing. It is pounded thin and didn't have much flavor. I think adding some extra sauce would help the flavor and not so thin would help prevent the chicken being dry. The salad was good. The bbq chicken and macaroni was also good. We didn't feel rushed like at so many local restaurants. Don't let the construction keep you away. There's parking alongside the building and a lot right across the street.

My wife and I came here for a birthday dinner after reading about how Elaine's was listed in the…read moreTop 10 restaurants in Frisco. (Plus several recommendations from friends.) We had reservations but there was no major crowd at 5:30. The place is contemporary, white tiles, brass finishes. Fully stocked bar. Nice big windows. Started with a Rail District cocktail that was really good. Finished with a Last Word which had a strong licorice flavor (not my fav) but the cherry at the bottom was great! We split the SPREADABLE WHIPPED LEMON BASIL GOAT CHEESE. Loved this. But note to the Chef or food prep - the toast crackers had so many holes in the bread, there was NO surface for the spreadable. Pieces of toast were basically outer crust and the inner area of bread had 90% giant holes. It was comical. Whoever plated this should have been more selective. My wife had the Salmon and I had the steak. The steak had a large pad of delicious blue cheese and butter on top of it, that slowly melted over the steak and potatoes. That was special. Endive salad was pretty dry, very little dressing. So I mixed it in with the potatoes and cheese/butter.

I say approximately because we live about a 10 minute drive and we left our home about 6:20, but I digress. Upon our arrival we were seated and provided with water and menus. The business was not that crowded at this time and several tables had already been served or had their respective drinks. At 6:40 when we had no additional contact with the wait staff that seated us or any other staff. There were two bartenders and to table wait staff. The bartenders were making drinks while the wait staff appeared to be behind the counter and occasionally seating newer customers. At 6:40 my wife was ready to leave, I told her I would give them to 7:00, at 6:59 our waitress came back to our table, the first time since she sat us. She took our drink order as well as our dinner order. At approximately 7:05 I saw the bartender making our drinks and place them at the end of the bar. During this time I believe that our wait staff was preparing one of our food items while the second wait staff was serving some customers in her are or taking orders. At 7:12 I went to the end of the bar to get our drinks but there was no glass for the wine as the bartender poured it out in a small carafe. So I left them at the bar. Mat 7:15 our waitress came staff got a wind glass and poured the carafe of wine into the glass at the bar and then brought the drinks to us. Approximately 7:25 our meals arrived. Again, the food was good.

Aloha, Tiki Tuesday! What a fun way to spend a Tuesday evening! The tropical cocktails helped us…read morefeel as though we were transported to the islands. They were not only beautifully crafted but absolutely delicious--each sip had us dreaming of swaying palm trees, ocean breezes, and a Hawaiian getaway. We loved both the Mai Tais and the Beachy Bookkeeper! We decided to share a few appetizers. The Meatballs al Forno was my favorite...packed with flavor and perfect for enjoying with friends over drinks. The Heirloom Tomato Burrata was okay however, the tomatoes didn't seem ripe and were hard and chewy. The Lobster in a Jar was tasty - on the pricey side if you ask me though... One of my favorite things about this spot is the ambiance. The lighting is low (and by low I am flat out dark where you almost can't see your hand in front of your face), creating a dark, cozy, and intimate atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and unwind after a long day. Whether you're catching up with friends, enjoying a date night, or simply looking for a place to escape for a few hours, the vibe here is spot on. The service was fantastic as well. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed, which only added to the experience. Tiki Tuesday has officially become one of my favorite weekly traditions. Great drinks, delicious appetizers, wonderful service, and a cozy atmosphere--what more could you ask for? I'll definitely be back next Tuesday for another little island escape. Where's my grass skirt and coconut bra??? Mahalo for a great evening!

We got our drinks as we were almost finished with appetizers. Drinks are overpriced. Here's a picture of a $20 old-fashioned before I had a sip.

The venue is designed to resemble a Prohibition-era speakeasy, with an entrance accessible through a rotary phone inside a red telephone booth (which actually works!). Our tour was led by Jamie, who shared his extensive knowledge as he guided us through the Prohibition Era alongside our concierge, Landon. The speakeasy features stunning floors made of 120-year-old Italian wood, beautifully decorated with art, books, and a selection of premium entertainment and spirits. Patrons can request "prescriptions," which are 2oz alcoholic shots inspired by the owner's grandfather, who was a pharmacist. Cocktails and friendly service was provided by Emma and Kyle, their services were a nod to Bob Ruede, RPB's renowned Intoxicologist, along with other award-winning bartenders recognized for their excellence in service and hospitality. Eric, the Cigar Attendant, is knowledgeable about how to properly enjoy an exceptional cigar experience. The Mafia Room is an exclusive space perfect for guys' and girls' nights, intimate events, corporate gatherings, and celebrations. While Red Phone Booth offers exclusive membership tiers with premium perks, you don't need to be a member to enjoy the Prohibition experience.
