Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House

Outstanding meal! The shrimp were succulent and all of our steaks were cooked perfectly. And seasoned perfectly, which is not done right very often. The wine stewards are a blast, one of them walked me into a Washington cab for $90 and it was terrific. The building is beautiful, the service is fluid and friendly. It's easy to see on my end why I'll be back.

My friends and I visited Del Frisco's for a girl's evening out. Our experience was absolutely wonderful. Looking forward to visiting this location again.

I don't understand the previous negative reviews. Unfortunately some people don't get out much. I travel two weeks a month and dine out from coast to coast. I have eaten at Del Frisco's in New York and Las Vegas and have always had an excellent time. Last week was my first trip to Fort Worth and Del Frisco's was recommended by the concierge as the best restaurant in town. I was dining alone and upon entering the restaurant was greeted with a smiling face. Must have been a busy night, so I found a seat at the bar for a cocktail as the hostess worked on finding me a table. One cocktail later I was being seated.

Food was excellent. I had a sweet/spicy calamari appetizer. Too much for one person to eat but I'll make a trip back to Fort Worth for that alone. A New York strip cooked perfectly. Delicious Au Gratin potatoes and creamed spinach. Washed it all down with a half bottle of Cabernet. (Half bottles are a great idea for the single diner and they must have close to 100 selections!) All in all what I expect from Del Frisco's, but most importantly, when I returned home I received a thank you card from my waiter Kevin. Class act.

My husband took me to Del Friscos for our anniversary-- we had heard great things about it, and were excited to try it. We ordered our steak medium-well-- I told the waiter I just wanted a little pink in the center. The steak came out bright pink all over-- we ended up sending it back 4 times, and at that point, the outside was so charred it didn't taste good. We were so disappointed. I could have gotten a steak at Saltgrass for 1/4 of the price and been pleased. We won't go there again.

We had a terrible experience and will never go back. The food wasn't good (the cocktail sauce looked like red glue and tasted gummy, my steak was overcooked even though I stressed how very rare I wanted it cooked, I asked if the onions could be removed from the potatoes au gratin and our waitress told me no, the potatoes au gratin were frozen and came in large bags so nothing could be done to change them!!), the service was poor (we were rushed the entire meal - my husband and I had the feeling that someone else was waiting for our table because our waitress kept trying to take our plates even though we weren't finished eating), and prices were high. We were told there was a dress code, but people were seated wearing blue jeans and white tee shirts. The entire evening could not have been much worse and we will never go back.

Well, last Saturday night we had reservations at 8:30 but weren't seated until 8:50. Ok except I found out later they don't insist on reservations, so it appeared they didn't seat us on time because they're seating others without reservations.

I should have been tipped off to problems when I called for reservations and was put on hold halfway through making the reservation, and then someone else different came back on the line and we had to start again.

Another thing I didn't like. Their website says business casual, jacket not required. They seated a lot of people in tee shirts, jeans and tennis shoes. Why even bother with a dress code?

We never had a consistent wait staff we could rely on; the service was unreliable. Not horrible, mind you. But not what I expect from a high end steakhouse.

The drinks were ok as were the entrees and appetizer. But the dessert bread pudding was very dry. The manager kindly took it off without us asking so I give them credit for that, but it was just another in a long list of things.

We seldom go to restaurants unless we expect a very good experience and we had never been to a Del Frisco's but heard good things. We've been to numerous Morton's, Fleming's, a Capital Grille. Been to lots of high end steakhouses in Las Vegas and throughout Texas. We're seldom disappointed. But this left us feeling like we'd been to a very expensive Applebees.

For their sake, I hope it was just a bad night for them. But we will not go back.

This is one of the Dallas Greats when it comes to a good meal. Anytime is a good time to go to Del Frisco's. Food is Five Star, Wine & Bar is Five Star, the only negitive for me is if you get sat near the front door or bar. A little too loud and cramped.

I will continue to go back with my wife as long as we are in Dallas!

I've tried them all but I keep coming back to Del Friscos. The steaks are fantastic, the sides are delicious, the staff is superb. There's one in Dallas as well and it's just as good.

This is the best steakhouse in Dallas to take a client. Their cigar room is superb and the service is outstanding.
