    We love Del Frisco's Grille but this time around was a bit of a disappointment. The service was great (thanks Cade!) but the food was definitely subpar. My grilled chicken was dry and came at least five minutes later than the rest of the meals. My wife's cauliflower risotto was flavorless as well as my daughters truffle mac and cheese. The coconut cream pie was amazing! My son had a bacon cheeseburger and that was also pretty good. We will definitely be back but this time was a let down.

    Horrible Thanksgiving dinner for 4. Will Never order from Del Frisco’s Grille again. We have been ordering this Thanksgiving dinner from Del Frisco Grille for 3 years now. Always been great. Absolutely the worst quality of food this year! This was the serving of dressing for 4. Served 1 and 1/2 small people. Had zero bisque soup this year. Also missing the cranberry sauce completely. Top it off with asking for extra gravy when ordering and you get home with zero gravy. After getting home and realizing the problem…I called Del Frisco’s Grille up and informed them. All the manager said was they will talk to the grill and make sure this does not happen again. Absolutely ridiculous customer service. I highly recommend going anywhere else other than Del Frisco’s Grille.

    We stopped in for a few drinks before our reservation at Del Frisco's. The service was good although it was standing room only by the bar. The VIP was delicious but I ordered a sour and the sour mix was a little weird. Otherwise everything was good.

    Watch out for the bait and switch and be prepared to be treated terribly. I was hosting three clients to dinner and I decided to order a bottle of Austin Hope Cabernet that was printed on the first page of the wine list where wines by the glass were shown, as well as the bottle price. The Austin Hope Cabernet was $62 and this was the bottle I chose. As I ordered it, I pointed to it and stated that I would like the Austin Hope Cabernet. The server brought the wine, presented it as Austin Hope, and proceeded to open it. Throughout the evening, we ordered another bottle of the same wine. Again, the server presented it as Austin Hope, which is again what I ordered. When the bill arrived, it was $200 more than it should have been and so in looking at the charges, I saw that I was charged $165, per bottle, of Austin Hope cabernet as opposed to $62 per bottle. I questioned it and the server said she would get her manager. I proceeded to tell the manager what I had ordered, and what I was charged, and he said that there was another bottle of Austin Hope Cabernet on the wine list that was $165, and that is what I was being charged for. I told him I did not order that other bottle, but I had ordered the bottle that I pointed out on the first page of the wine menu. He started to argued with me, and said his hands were tied, there was nothing he could do because we drank the wine. He then pointed to the menu and said that I had ordered it off of the wines by the glass page. I continued to tell him that yes, that is correct, because the bottle price was also printed on the same page. And that is the bottle that I chose. When I asked for his name, he said it was Jeff, when I asked for his last name, he refused to give it to me. It was not until I started to write down information that he blurted out his last name, which was Gregory. During this entire exchange, while I was disputing the charges, the server took my card and charged my corporate American Express the INCORRECT full amount. I was in shock. I made it very clear to him that I am not a wine sommelier, and how would I know that they had a different bottle that was presented to me with the same label? and consumed at the table with the same label of the bottle that I chose. How in the world would I know such a thing. I'm no sommelier, so when this bottle was presented, I had no idea that there was another bottle, with the same label but a different year. After all, the bottle that I chose, didn’t even show a year on the wine list page where I chose the wine!! This is FRAUD. The manager, Jeff Gregory, copped a lot of attitude and was absolutely the rudest person I have ever met. I have never been treated so horribly in an establishment. I am actually in so much shock about what happened. With this caliber of a brand, I would NEVER expect this behavior or treatment. Make sure you double check your bill. Or better yet, go to Whataburger!🤭 I spoke with another manager the following day, who gave me his direct supervisor’s name at Landry’s. Let’s see if they do anything about this.

    These people know how to do steak 😋. They don't know how to do chicken. Me and one other person in my party had the chicken and it was super dry and needed salt. I had to drink water with each bite just to get it down. The potatoes under the chicken were flavorless. The mac and cheese was pretty good though. Our server deserves 10 stars because she was top notch. I just can't remember her name.

    We have been to dinner here numerous times and it’s always excellent. This most recent visit, we hosted our rehearsal dinner in a private room in the back of the restaurant. It was lovely. The food options were great and the staff was wonderful and efficient. I would strongly recommend booking this for a private event!

    The New York Strip Steak with Truffle Butter was great. The truffle Mac was a little too rich for my taste, but I could see most enjoying it. Overall the food was great. The service, however, was not great. After we started eating, we were checked on the second we got food, and not again for almost 30 minutes. In that time period, I politely attempted to get the server's attention (he was tending to all the tables around us frequently) to no success twice. Specifically, I wanted to request a refill and the cobbler dessert to share with the other person with me, knowing it would be in limited quantity. Unfortunately, because he did not get to us until 30 minutes after the initial attempt to get his attention, the tables next to us received the very last of the cobbler. This was disappointing due to the fact that the cobbler was *the* reason we came, and was communicated to the server at the beginning of the dinner, Overall I was disappointed with the visit due to the service. Generally, I am not over-needy when it comes to service at restaurants, and understand the difficulty of working in the service industry on a holiday. I was disappointed to pay a total of $82 for a meal that had poor service. Despite this, I did not stiff the server (20% tip) considering he was probably given a poorly appropriated section that was too much to reasonably handle.

    The food here is always spot on. We love the appetizers. The Southwest Egg rolls are literally one of my favorite dishes at any restaurant of all time. The truffle Mac and cheese is fantastic, and even better with lobster added. The steaks are always at the correct temperature ordered, and seasoned well. It's located in a great spot right in the square, within walking distance of many other bars and restaurants, along with Bass Hall.

    I will preface this one-star review with an acknowledgement that I know this is not everyone's experience. I've heard such wonderful things about this place, so I know this probably isn't how the experience is every night. But, I think that the management team ought to know about my experience for training's sake. There are three things that caused this poor review. First, the general atmosphere created by the staff. I was here on a Saturday evening, and most of the workers we encountered looked flustered. We waiting for a long time to be seated (we had reservations), and everyone seemed too busy to great us, see how we were doing, etc. It wasn't that they were rude, it was just that there was a general atmosphere of panic/anxiety, which set the mood off from the start. Second, our waitress was comically awful. She had one of the most unpleasant personalities that I've ever encountered while at a restaurant. From the moment she "greeted" us, I never saw her smile, she was rude, short-sentenced, always in a hurry, and rarely checked in on us. After each encounter with the waitress, our whole party would just look wide-eyed at each other, usually with laughs of unbelief. It was a running joke that night that we must have made her incredibly mad on accident, and that we better try staying on her good side. (If a manager would like to know who the waitress was, feel free to reach out. I'd rather not blast them online). Third, I was highly disappointed with my meal. I ordered the pork chop (so maybe that was my fault to begin with?), and it came out burnt and dry. It was incredibly tough, hard to cut/chew, and generally unpleasant due to the dryness and charcoal exterior. I usually wouldn't write a review like this, but I chose to for a few reasons. First, the service that was provided by our waitress was unacceptable. For the amount of money we paid for a nice meal, we would expect to be served by someone who would at least pretend to want to be there. Second, I know that mistakes happen, and that management generally likes to be made aware of them for the sake of learning and training. Third, I know that my review will not hurt Del Frisco's business, as they are so highly spoken of by the public. I simply want this to be helpful for the restaurant when they read it!

    First time here for a friends birthday. Our server was great! The food tasted good but was cold. I think it would have been amazing had it been served hot. We had a party of 6 so maybe that played a part in it. The Mac and cheese had wonderful flavor, but being cold the cheese wasnt melty. Large piece of Salmon. A little dry. View was awesome. Drinks were tasty! However when you spend $93 before a tip you expect the food to be top notch. They did offer a Nutella bread pudding dessert for her birthday and that came out warm and quick. That was hands down the best part of the meal.

    Great experience on a good night out meeting friends. Employees were friendly and always smiling. Our server, Trey, was awesome and very attentive. Good came out quickly. The Pork Chop was delicious along with the Shrimp Alfredo (it was spicy but very good). Awesome location on the square! Recommend.

    The environment, food, and service were wonderful. It's not a regular outing to spend so much on a meal ($500+ for 4 people, appetizers, drinks, main course, and dessert) but for the cost it was exactly what we wanted for a special event. We will be back in the future. Only bothersome issue was that we dressed up, per the dress code, and it was minimally followed.

  • 4/5 Protective Dad P. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was pretty good. We had reservations but had to wait for 30-minutes before being set. I was shocked at the limited menu. It fit on one page. I guess I expected more. The food we did order was very good. I had the Prime Steak Sandwich (would have been better with some Swiss cheese). My wife had the lamb burger wrapped in lettuce. As I said they were both very good. When our food came out... everything, and I mean everything was cold. I had to have a manager come over. He quickly whisked it away and brought us all new food. This disappointed me. However he did comp us some delicious coconut cream pie. Therefore the rating. I would have given this place 3-stars based upon the cold food but since the manager made things right... I brought it up to 4. Question is... Would I come back? Definitely.

    It was a great Friday night spot for dinner with family. We tried the cheesesteak egg rolls and I ordered the Lemon Dill Salmon with the roasted asparagus. Samantha was our waitress and awesome. She was attentive, made suggestions and checked on us. I will definitely be back soon.

    The wait was a little long even though there were very many open tables and didn't look too busy, but the food is very good. I ordered the filet mignon with their truffle Mac and cheese and french fries and the steak was juicy and super tender. The truffle Mac and cheese had a very strong garlic and truffle flavor that isn't for the faint of heart. The fries were perfect. All in all this meal changed my perspective as a person who usually doesn't like the texture of steak to like steak, I felt like giving it another go, but at somewhere that has quality. It was very filling as well.

    Del Frisco’s is certainly known for their high-end steaks, but they also do a great (relatively affordable) lunch. I hadn’t anticipated that the burger at a steak place would be so damn good, but here we are. The truffled deviled eggs were a definitely a novelty to try once, but probably wouldn’t get them again for the price. My wife’s steak was exquisite, as you would expect. The cocktails were well-done, as well.

    Amazing experience. Our waitress was so nice and overall a lovely vibe. Will definitely be returning.

  • 5/5 Josh V. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was great, service was excellent, atmosphere is awesome. Sitting on Sundance Square is a treat all it's own, but coupled with the excellent food, and awesome service makes it that much better. Our servers were on top of everything, water glass was never empty. The NY Strip steak was cooked exactly as ordered and there drinks were great. I would recommend adding on a specialty butter, I didn't and regretted it. The old fashioned was standard but well executed, and I highly recommend the vanilla Manhattan.

    Deliciously amazing meal! We ordered the strip steak and filet , both were outstanding and cooked as requested. Our waitress was delightful as was the other staff that visited our table. Wonderful dining in downtown Ft Worth@

  • 5/5 Tighe P. 1 year ago on Google
    Went with my wife for our anniversary dinner. Sunday reservation at 6 pm. Arrived around 5:45 and was seated within 5 minutes. Server Molly was great at Serving us. Restaurant was clean, cool , and not very crowded. Food is pricy as is most places in Sundance Square. You get a nice view directly across from the main square. The food was great and did not disappoint . The deviled egg starter was fantastic if you like deviled eggs , but the Philly cheesesteak egg rolls were amazing. I see why everyone loves them. For entrees I ordered the 8 ounce filet mignon with Brussels sprouts. Steak came out seasoned well with a nice sear and rare in the middle as I requested. Brussel sprouts had a nice sweet and acidic balsamic dressing and were well roasted. My wife ordered the petite filet medallions ( one topped with peppercorn sauce with mushrooms and the other with bearnaise sauce, and crab meat. The sauces on both of those were absolutely fantastic and I found myself dipping my filet in her sauces. If you’re considering the filet , I’d opt for the medallions with the sauces instead. For her side she got the truffle Mac and cheese. She loved it , but it was very bold with the truffle flavor , and I didn’t care much for it. If you love truffle flavor you’ll love it, if you don’t care for truffle then order another side. For desert we shared the Nutella bread pudding. Comes with a side of mascarpone with berries, caramel drizzle and it’s topped with vanilla bean ice cream. It was absolutely delicious and I’m glad we chose that as our desert . Wait time for the food was not long at all. All in all I have zero complaints for my first time at this establishment and enjoyed our date. Next time we go will check out the brunch menu earlier in the day.

    We came here for brunch and it was really good! All the food we had was great, but the server was not the best. She was a little rude and not helpful but at least the food made up for it! The French onion breakfast sandwich was amazing! Definitely recommend getting that for sure. The cheesesteak eggs rolls and truffle Mac and cheese were great too. We will for sure be coming back but hope we don’t have the same server.

    Enjoyed the Restaurant week menu after a show at nearby Bass Performance Hall. Started with Cheese steak egg rolls - Strange but amazing. Wife had the filet - perfectly cooked! I had the Half Roasted Chicken- was wonderful. Still trying to figure out how most of the bones were out of the thigh.

    By far the worst dining experience I have ever had. I am a retired chef and have traveled the world and eaten all levels of food worldwide. I have never had to wait an hour and forty five minutes for my meal to arrive. Obviously there are some seriously wrong training and management issues at this location. Server shared way to much incorrect information as well. As I mentioned I have been in the food service industry since 1976. Because of the slow kitchen it affected the entire facility. Front of the house was hard to find because they were hiding due to having to apologize so much. Felt bad for them. It’s too bad because I had been there a few times and it was pretty good. Doubt I’ll go back again.

    The Grille is not the Steak House. I went here with a large work group so my review may not represent the experience you would receive with a regular size party. Our group was large. That being said I was expecting more. Better service, better food and better portions. A few guys got their dessert before they got their steak. 3 hours later. I don’t want to rag on them too much but I will. Half the steaks weren’t prepared properly and the amount of time it took us to get served was crazy. It’s a good social place. If your looking for a great steak. Go to the Steak house, not the Grille.

    Came in last weekend for our late evening dinner reservation. Walked into six hostesses arguing with some potential patrons, then we awkwardly stood there until we were greeted. It took about two minutes for them to figure out who would take us to our table. Service was sub-par. Our server was not friendly, and only spoke to my boyfriend. He posed every question to my boyfriend, even the ones about my order. The food was horrible. I ordered a burger with the truffle mac on the side. My burger came without the mac, and instead fries. I did order fries, but for the table, not with my meal. My boyfriend had to ask the server where my mac was after about eight minutes. To add to the disappointing night, the food was horrible. Burger had basic condiments and was nothing special. (Go to Rodeo Goat for a great burger instead). The truffle mac was disgusting. Just white cheddar mac with oil on the top for the fake "truffle" taste. It was more mushroom tasting than anything. Bizarre. The fries were also horrendous. They came cold and tasted horrible. Like they were from the freezer... My boyfriend ordered the steak sandwich and mushrooms as his side. His sandwich was not great, the creamy horseradish and mushroom side was his favorite part. Overall, for $88 plus tip, go anywhere else. Poor service and terrible food/quality seals the deal for me to never go back. Notes I am a former expo/hostess/server. I have also dined at Del Frisco's in Southlake. This was not up to par and was not up to Del Frisco's standard.

  • 5/5 Alexis W. 4 months ago on Google
    Casey was an excellent server! So kind, always had my drink refilled without asking, answered my 1000 menu questions, offered me a replacement meal when I didn’t care too much for mine, consistently checked on our table, and kept such a kind positive attitude when having to work on Christmas. Food wasn’t bad for what I tried! Limited Christmas menu since the stock was low so I can’t judge their day to day menu! But exceptional service! Thank you!

    Mellissa our server was fantastic. Food was excellent. The atmosphere left a little to be desired. The downstairs bar area seemed unkempt… fruit flies everywhere which made it kinda gross to sit and wait for our table. Bar service was good and friendly though. Fix the fly problem and 5stars!
