    We were seated around 5:20 with a 5 PM reservation. The staff were friendly and approachable. The line for the bathroom was extremely long around 6 PM and kept growing. The restaurant was quite loud, making conversation difficult. Despite these issues, the food was fantastic, and its a lovely place to visit after seeing the tree. Our meal came to $172, not including tip, for the 10-ounce filet, braised short rib, roasted asparagus, and mac and cheese. I wouldnt recommend the mac and cheese as it was bland and loses its taste quickly if not eaten warm but the braised short rib was AMAZING. I definitely recommend adding a vegetable side to enjoy alongside the short rib. Overall, I really enjoyed my evening here.

    The location is absolutely stunning for content outside the restaurant in the area, due to Rockefeller Center. The food was incredibly delicious, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely fantastic. The ambiance was just okay in the restaurant, not the best. Its definitely not a place where you can feel overly romantic or kid-friendly. On second thought, maybe a little more on the romantic side, the place was very dark. However, my son and I enjoyed it, so we ended up paying $120 for three courses - an appetizer, main course, and dessert - which was definitely worth the price due to it being restaurant week in NYC.

    Celebrated my birthday dinner at this location. The food was very delicious. The staff was very pleasant and efficient. However, the womens bathrooms.Less desirable for a high-end restaurant. Management definitely needs to come up with the way to keep their bathrooms clean and fresh.

    Super great place to grab lunch. We actually ate here twice. Fries were great. Diet Coke came with a lemon slice which was fun! Great service. Outside seating and clean bathrooms. Garden salad was huge!Double cheeseburger, truffled Mac and cheese and steak sandwich were also ordered by our party. Will definitely return!

    We were celebrating our 8th year wedding anniversary and decided to go there. The place has a romantic sitting with dim lights We were seated in no time, and the server came a very nice young man with a very sexy accent 😀 my husband ordered the wet wings, and I got the dry one. We were both very pleased. My main meal, which was half of chicken with marsh potatoes and a side order or cream spinach and spicy margarita drink I was about to eat my chicken when I realized whatever sauce on it was EXTREMELY salty i scraped it off but by then it had were to the potatoes and and to removing some, I was full and took some home and warm it up the next when I realized the chicken was not cooked to my satisfaction which I did not realize while there due to the lighting Anthony ordered steak and asparagus and a glass of red wine. He was very pleased the place was very clean and the service was fantastic . I probably would not go back due to the lighting being so dark as even when ordering I had my reading glasses on and had to use the light from my phone to see whats there but if I should go back if my husband wants to go the only thing I will ordered is the wings.and the spicy Is margarita.

    Its a bit pricey but manageable ifgour visiting for the first time. The waiter is really so friendly and helpful. Forget the crispy Brussel Sprouts. They are overcooked.

  • Review 7 (2024-10-20 - Rating: 4)

    We sat at the bar and had the tuna tacos and the filet burger. All very good. We stopped here before our broadway play. Good pit stop before a show.

  • Review 8 (2023-11-20 - Rating: 5)

    My M-I-L and I came here and had the best time!!!! We shared the filet with a side of Brussel sprouts and sweet potato fries and had the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer!!! I will definitely come back! The steak was cooked just as we asked! The brussel sprouts were ok, but Im really picky about how I like my brussel sprouts! The shrimp and the sweet potatoes were absolute perfection!! We had a hazelnut martini and chocolate martini, and they were both really good!! Be prepared to spend a little money bc the place isnt cheap, but it was worth every penny!!!!

  • Review 9 (2024-12-19 - Rating: 5)

    The filet was fabulous! Our server told is the sides, specifically the loaded baked potato was very large so we shared one between the three of us. While the large plates may look empty, it was more than enough food and I still didnt finish my third of the potato. The drinks were delicious and the service was phenomenal!! I wish I wrote my review sooner while I could still remember the name of our server because he was so great

    Del Friscos Grille is one of the best lunch spots in the Rockefeller Center area, Ive been coming here for many years. While its more casual than the Double Eagle steakhouse sister property down the street, the menu and atmosphere at the Grille are both great. Most importantly, though, the service at the bar is out of this world!

  • Review 11 (2024-12-30 - Rating: 4)

    We were in town to attend the Christmas Eve Midnight Mass at St. Patricks Cathedral with a reservation for 3pm. We were seated promptly upon arrival. Our waiter was prompt allowing us to get settled with reviewing the menu. We started with a Hazelnut Expresso Martini and Manhattan for cocktails and Fried Calamari Shanghai Style with Crush Peanuts. All were excellent. For entrees we had Filet Mignon and Prime Ribeye, both prepared perfectly as ordered, sharing Roasted Asparagus and Hand-mashed Gold Potatoes which were very good.

  • Review 12 (2023-06-07 - Rating: 5)

    While walking around Rockefeller Center we decided to stop for drinks and a snack. We were at the bar area and were certainly not disappointed with the service. We had various cocktails and all were well prepared. We ordered a cheeseburger and french fries and the combo was a big winner. The cheeseburger was so tasty and the french fries were great. We ended up ordering a second round of fries. The place had an after work crowd enjoying beers and tasty appetizers. The place is worth a look if you are in the Rockefeller Center area.

  • Review 13 (2023-12-05 - Rating: 4)

    We stopped here after watching the Rockettes at Radio City. Its really close and we were able to get a seat at the bar. It was packed when we went and I would assume thats largely because of the holiday season. Ill get to the food but I have to say up front the location is the star of the show. Its around the corner from Radio City and right next to the Rockefeller tree. We could look to our left during dinner and see the beautiful tree all lit up. If you are planning during the holidays I recommend making reservations ahead and requesting the attached (covered and presumably heated) patio so you can have an even better view. The service at the bar was good once they registered we were there. He was really friendly and checked in regularly. The food was pretty good. Its nothing incredibly unique or memorable in my opinion but good. I got the shaved steak sandwich and Mom got the chicken sandwich. I think that there were other items on the menu that might have been better, specifically some of the appetizers looked good. I would say its great during the holiday for the location/view and for groups that want a menu thats friendly to almost anyone/not too adventurous.

  • Review 14 (2022-07-19 - Rating: 4)

    To start the hostess greeted us and sat us promptly. Then the server introduced herself and got us water with no wait.The place is nice and had a lively feel with music and conversations going everywhere.We ordered a bunch of appetizers.The deviled eggs were not my favorite. The egg at the bottom was deep fried so it was chewy.The sticky ribs were the bomb. Tender and fall off the bone. They were sticky and sweet.The cheeseburger egg rolls were good too. The sauce was sweet.The tuna tacos were really good. The guacamole was flavorful.The crab cake was OK. To me it had a little too much veggies.The biscuits were dry and not very warm. Do not those.The chicken sandwich was good with the sweet potato fries.

  • Review 15 (2024-08-23 - Rating: 4)

    The location, service and ambience is nice. The place is very convenient right on Rockefeller. But I would go back for the service and the place but not the food. Salad was good. We have tried the Cobb salad. But the chicken sandwich was dry and not tender at all. Cream spinach and baked potatoes were so so. Fries were ok. Price is very reasonable for the location.

  • Review 16 (2024-08-06 - Rating: 5)

    Just a fantastic meal. Our group of four ordered steak three different ways. They all came out perfect and tasted amazing. Apps were great, we got the ahi tacos, pork meatballs and cheesesteak egg rolls. Only downside here is its quite busy and loud at lunch. If youre not in a booth, its hard to have a normal conversation.

  • Review 17 (2022-08-15 - Rating: 5)

    Went with a friend for lunch at noon on a Monday in August. Weather was great, so we were seated outside. We had the cheese steak egg rolls to start with, and they were crispy and delicious. My friend had the branzino and I had the shrimp fettuccine. Everything was great, and service was quick and friendly. Total came to 115$ including tips and taxes.

  • Review 18 (2024-04-02 - Rating: 5)

    Excellent restaurant in the very heart of Manhattan. Delicious dishes, polite and professional staff. Congrats!❣️

  • Review 19 (2023-10-29 - Rating: 5)

    I’ve been here twice and I have to admit I had the shaved steak sandwich both times because it was so delicious! I love sitting outside with great views of Rockefeller Plaza and the staff have been friendly and attentive each time I’ve visited. The cocktails were tasty and not weak. I would come again for the great location, nice dining atmosphere indoors and outdoors and I’ll probably order the shaved steak sandwich again, yes it’s that good. My son enjoyed his pasta and the appetizer ribs were really good. If you are in the area check it out.

  • Review 20 (2023-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    I had dinner there for my birthday and I really enjoyed myself. The food was amazing, I sat at the bar and the bartenders were very attentive.Will definitely be going back!

  • Review 21 (2023-03-11 - Rating: 5)

    Ive visted 2 times, first time for lunch and the second for dinner.Drinks are very good, i love their cocktail menu.My favorite is prime rib on the bone, medium perfectly made, and the meat is very high quality.Really recommend, a bit pricey, but if youre looking for a GREAT prime rib in NYC, this is the place.

  • Review 22 (2019-04-02 - Rating: 4)

    Appetizers were absolutely delicious. The ahi tuna, calamari and Philly egg rolls were bomb. The steak was good but a bit overcooked. Great experience overall.

    Great place to grab a bite when youre visiting Rockefeller center and the Christmas tree. Recommend getting a reservation as the place gets very busy around the holidays.

  • Review 25 (2019-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    My guest and I came here during restaurant week. Make sure youre in proper business casual. The lobster bisque was savory. The steak was very flavorful. The birthday dessert on the house was absolutely the crescendo of the meal. Will definitely come again in the future!

  • Review 26 (2023-08-03 - Rating: 4)

    The sticky ribs were good. I liked the scallions and garlic chunks on them. The ambiance of eating outside at Rockefeller was enjoyable. The prices are high but to be expected for the location.

    The food was very good. Our waitress Jodie, was kind enough to create a fruit bowl for my granddaughter when she could not find anything to her liking. My granddaughter loved her Shirley Temple. The only thing I did not like is no free drink refills.

    Took my daughter on a weekend trip. Big Del Frisco’s was not open yet. There is a kids menu we learned from our waiter. Daughter had the cheeseburger. I a steak. We also shared mashed potatoes. Our server was attentive and thoughtful.

    Our family was there on the 16th of Dec. We came to NYC to take the girls to American Girl. The restaurant was very convenient. We had no reservations but they accommodated a party of 9 in a private room. Everything was wonderful the food, service and atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

  • Review 40 (2023-12-26 - Rating: 5)

    Food was fantastic. Our server, Mary, was amazing. It was very busy but she was still very attentive and in good spirits. Good beer/wine list for an upscale restaurant. Recommend having a reservation.For main dishes, we had the salmon, pork chop, braised rib. For apps we had ahí tuna tacos and the flat bread.

  • Review 41 (2019-06-12 - Rating: 5)

    Holy cow the food was good. That fillet mignon was cooked to perfection. Servers were all great. Highly recommend.

  • Review 42 (2023-12-10 - Rating: 5)

    Prime location near the Rockefeller tree (especially enchanting during Christmas) and a variety of food options make it an outstanding spot for a visit. Recently attended a holiday dinner with clients, and the facility manager, along with the support staff, ensured our team was well taken care of. From appetizers to salads, mains, and desserts, everything was impeccably presented and delicious, do check out the pics for the options we opted for our course.Recommend making a prior appointment as the place tends to get busy in the evening.

  • Review 44 (2023-12-29 - Rating: 5)

    My wife and I live in Baltimore and about twice per year we take a day trip to NYC and we always end the trip with dinner at Del Friscos. The host staff are very welcoming and friendly. The wait staff are friendly, professional and knowledgeable. The food, while expensive (but actually not that bad for New York), is absolutely delicious. My wife is a celiac and she has several gluten free options, though you would never know it if you tasted it.I was going to deduct a star because i guess the ownership changed and they took the chocolate mousse (which is heavenly) off the menu. We politely mentioned this to our waiter, who agreed with our disappointment of it being taken off the menu. The floor manager stopped by our table and said he would check with the kitchen to see what he could do. After paying, as we were getting ready to head to the train ststion, we got a complimentary to-go bag of our favorite chocalte mousse thet the chef made for use. So, the star goes back on, and if i could give this restaurant 6 stars, I would.

    We arrived at this restaurant for lunch after a long walk. We were greeted very kindly. The place was not that cool. We were served by Jovak, who is an exceptional waiter, attentive, kind, and careful to recommend the menu items. My wife had chicken for dinner and I had fish and fries, both great. Dessert was New York cheesecake (3.8/5). Espresso. A nice place, with a good atmosphere, good restrooms. I congratulate them, we had a great time.

  • Review 46 (2023-05-20 - Rating: 5)

    I was visiting from OOT and walked by this place and loved the location (many people walking around) and there were nice tables outside and the inside was also very nice. I chose to sit at the bar. The two bartenders (one male and one female) were excellent. When my starter salad was even a little late, they gave me an extra pour (it wasn’t even that late). Although I was sitting at the bar alone, they still treated me as a VIP. It was even near the end of their shift and I was still treated with patience and care. I ordered the filet and it was EXCELLENT. Much better than the steaks I’ve had at other places in the city that charge WAY more. Nice sear and seasoning. I made sure I left a review because this place left an impression.

  • Review 47 (2018-03-20 - Rating: 4)

    One of my favorite steakhouses and where else can you find Del Frisco’s but New York City. Bone-in Ribeye was cooked perfectly and the au gratin potatoes delicious. Plenty of wine choices. Plus the cocktails where the four finger. Type. Down side after ordering salads and being served we had a long wait for entrees. Otherwise service was good. Next time I’m in New York City Del Frisco’s is on my list for dinner. Yum.

  • Review 48 (2023-06-28 - Rating: 5)

    Stopped here before a concert. We needed a quick bite to eat before heading to the show, and I was surprised at how good the food was. The burger is absolutely delicious and flavorful. We also ordered a Burrata salad and the cheese was so fresh and good. Sat at the bar and the bartenders were quick, efficient, and pleasant. Great service. Will come back here for our pre-show bites!!!

    It has changed, the food has, assuming a new chef. But location, drinks, atmosphere remains the same.Shrimp had to much breading, bacon had to much overbearing peppercorn, and the meatballs were bland. Just not the Del Friscos I remember.Still a spot I recommend for those visiting Rockefeller.

    What an incredible experience, directly across the street from Rockefeller Plaza. The food was incredible and the staff was even better, if thats possible. I would definitely recommend this establishment. The cleanliness of the establishment was great and the bartender felt like an old friend. Our waitress was very good and service was great, felt like I was at Cheers. Dont miss out if your at the Rockefeller Plaza.

    I don’t know if food and price was worth the money but they met standards. It could have been better. I LOVED their Brussel sprout - highly recommend. We got pretzels for the pre-meal bread.

    Del Frisco’s is a nice restaurant near Rockefeller Plaza. The ambiente is modern and cosy. Also the service was cordial and helpful. The food was good but the penne a la vodka had way to much sauce. We ate the Caprese with Burrata and it was very good. I would recomend eating a stake or something though. 4/5 stars.

    Food and service was great but due to the location lots of tourists. The menu catered more to tourists and didnt have some of the main stays of Del Friscos Double Eagle. Good for a quick meal but for more options and a better atmosphere take a walk to the other location.

  • Review 72 (2023-02-26 - Rating: 5)

    The less-expensive sister restaurant to NYCs Del Friscos Double Eagle Steakhouse is nothing to sneeze at! We accidentally made a reservation here 😂 but were happy we did.The Grille offers a pared down version of the Steakhouse menu, so... if youre looking for the full Del Friscos steak menu or (for dessert) the overrated (dont judge me) butter cake, youll need to head to the Steakhouse. Just make sure you make a reservation for the right Del Friscos.I dont eat meat, so this place worked well for me! I enjoyed a butternut squash bisque, shrimp cocktail and lemon dill salmon entree. I LOVED the huge slice of lemon Doberge cake I was served. I also had a margarita (just okay) and a delicious lemon drop.My husband is very much a carnivore, but he enjoyed the jumbo lump crabcake appetizer and, because he had already had steak twice that week, ordered pan seared scallops. He cannot stop talking about both! He finished his meal with the peanut butter bar, which he enjoyed (but has not mentioned again).Like the Steakhouse, the sides at the Grille are shareable. We selected the truffle mac and cheese and mashed potatoes.The service at Del Friscos was perfect! It was a busy Saturday evening, and we were not rushed. The staff was attentive without breathing down our necks while we ate.We would definitely eat there again.

For a side, I finished them all with no help. Was so stuffed, I didn’t even eat the chicken sandwich I had ordered as the entree.On a side note:Storytime. The bar was “seat yourself if you can find one”. And a mother came in with her daughter, was told she’s not old enough to sit at bar. So she let her daughter sit on the floor…. Like what? Let the kid sit at a table or go elsewhere.Ok. Story time over.

    Have been to plenty of Delfrisco. Always great food. Last night at the Rockefeller location was exceptional. My server was awesome!When back in NYC I will return to this location.

    In the heart of Rockefeller Center. Touristy but a fine example of fine dining in NYC. Food is excellent and service is comparable. Highly recommend

    Great entrees, excellent sides, many gluten-free options, wide variety of wines with valid affordable options and prices can go up from that depending on your preference. Server was skilled, efficient and super nice. Would definitely go again. About $50 per person oncluding entree, sides, wine, and no dessert

    I dont care what anyone else says, but Carolina, Tim, and Helen make the best martinis in the country. They have great food too and, while expensive in general, is priced reasonably for the area. All of the staff here are wonderful and they make you feel so welcome. This has become one of my go-to restaurants in NYC.

  • Review 86 (2021-12-27 - Rating: 4)

    I like the vibe here especially around the bar area. It doesn’t feel like fine dining unless you sit at the dining tables. You can still order food at the bar section and they have really good variety of different types of food. It gets crowded especially with tourists around 8 pm onwards. It’s right by Rockefeller tree so a very strategic location to take a break in between touring.

    Came here as a last minute change for a friends birthday dinner. The atmosphere is lovely and the decor is beautiful. The staff was very nice. The waitperson who tended to our table, Nick, was very knowledgeable, caring and courteous especially with one of my friends who has a seafood allergy. Would definitely go back to this restaurant again.

  • Review 89 (2021-04-05 - Rating: 4)

    We went to celebrate ny sisters birthday, and they were very accommodating. We made the reservation at 9:15pm for a 10pm seating (dont ask). We got a nice table in what my sister called VIP because it was so isolated. Staff wore masks and upheld COVID measures. The food was good, I really liked the calamari, be careful of the fried breaded peppers. Im giving 4 stars because our meal was a little more than $600 with gratuity included for 4 people. We had a glass of wine each, and a shot eat that accounted for about 200 which was fine but $400 for food when we only had an hour to eat. It was too pricey for what we got.

    Great food and awesome sirloin steak. Also nice location and great seating. We did have a booth for 6 people.4* because of the service - all a little too hectic and chaotic! The guy who was bringing the steaks from the grill came running to our table and slammed the plates on us.

  • Review 91 (2023-01-16 - Rating: 4)

    A little disappointed that we still had to wait even with reservations. We were seated near the bar where people were standing over us most of the time while we ate so we did not enjoy our experience. Unfortunately for what we paid for our meal it was quite a disappointing evening.

  • Review 92 (2018-11-02 - Rating: 5)

    Always a pleasant experience whenever I visit. Im never disappointed. I can suggest this spot for dinner as I did yesterday and everyone enjoyed the food as I expected them to. Our waiter provided excellent service but thats also one of the reasons I frequently return and suggest it to so many others.

  • Review 93 (2018-12-08 - Rating: 5)

    Being this was in time square I expected this to be a very robotic experience when it comes to service, however, I was pleasantly surprised from the moment we walked through the door it was quite the opposite. I expected there to be no tables ( which there werent for the remainder of the evening), but the bar is full service and first come first serve. The host from start advised me they were about to seat a couple and that two seats would be available literally immediately when we arrived! Once seated, the bartender was very welcoming and had an outstanding personality. Really made you feel special for the expensive meal I was about to indulge in. My wife and I ordered the ribeye (medium rare) with mashed potatoes and and Mac and cheese. My wifes steak was cooked perfectly, but mine was a tad over cooked. I explained the to the friendly bartender/server and this was quickly rectified and I was soon enjoy a perfectly cooked ribeye. The food in general was outstanding and for the amount of people overflowing into the restaurant, we received our food in a very reasonable time frame. I was overall very satisfied and look forward to Future visits to this establishment.

  • Review 95 (2019-11-19 - Rating: 5)

    Awesome service! Consistently great food! Steakhouse with an amazing crab cake. Great ambiance. Good for after work meetings. Great bar with menu. Has a private room for a more intimate dining experience. I visit this restaurant at least 4xs a year. I prefer this location to the bigger location on 6th Ave. I often frequent for celebrations. During the winter you can visit Rockefeller for skating and holiday lights. Great for after a show at Radio City Music Hall or after shopping with visiting family and friends. Casual to formal dress appropriate. Highly recommended!

    Great American restaurant for salads, burgers or steak! Close to a lot of offices so seems more like a office lunch or dinner place but would recommend to anyone. The atmosphere is really nice and the staff is great! We got a few starters and then I tried the wild mushroom and bruschetta salad which was definitely a unique experience!

    My favorite place in the area. My friend and I made this place as our secret place to go. The food and drinks are awesome, a lot of flavor. Great selection of wines. The service is outstanding in the best New York traditions. The vibe in the place is pleasant: the place is classy without snobbish flavor.It is always a pleasure to comeback here.

  • Review 104 (2021-06-04 - Rating: 4)

    Good food in good location but steak on Steak Salad was a little tough. What was irritating is that they charged $5 for a glass of watered-down lemonade, then an additional $5 for a refill - there could not have been more than 10 cents worth of product on that glass.

    Excellent service and great vegetarian dishes too even though it’s known for its steak. I got the Beet salad with burrata and shrimp- delicious! Try outdoor seating next to the stage on Rock Center if you can!

    Came here after a long day of doing all the New York Christmas must do’s! Needless to say I was very hungry. There was quite a wait but I was able to get a table near the bar as those were first come first serve. The bartender Keilly was very accommodating to my son’s peanut allergy and offered some great recommendations despite the limited menu. Will be back again to enjoy a meal with the incredible view of the tree

    I came January 2021 during the pandemic & I was surprised on how well they followed the cdc guidelines for covid. We ordered a steak and it was a bit over cooked. They showed so much hospitality by making an recommendation & replacing the steaks. Great, fast service! I definitely will return

  • Review 116 (2018-12-29 - Rating: 4)

    Its a very touristy spot but the service and quality of food makes me want to go back. Although the beer list is small they have some great picks. The Philly Cheesesteak Eggrolls are amazing, the ceasar salad flopped but the meat on the steak sandwich was awesome and probably the best value for money.

  • Review 117 (2022-05-01 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 118 (2020-01-15 - Rating: 4)

    I have been visiting del frisco’s grille since more than 5 years now, for me it was always number One steakhouse in Manhattan New York. My surprise this visit the experience was less positive, service was rather poor this time, it took ages for the waiter to show up, the steak was good but the spinach and mushrooms were less tasty. I hope that the restaurant go back to its high standards in terms of food and service.

  • Review 119 (2014-01-06 - Rating: 5)

    Food is great! Great alternative to go to if you cant go to the steakhouse. The food isnt totally the quality of the steakhouse, but definitely better than most other restaurants in the area. The bar here too gets very crowded and its worth it to make a reservation or else you might end up waiting for an house. They also will substitute steak for chicken on the caesar salad!

  • Review 120 (2022-07-24 - Rating: 5)

    Late Sunday lunch with the family. Left car at nearby parking garage at $15 per 2hours and walked a block to Del Frisco’s. We enjoyed our savory meal and service. Food and drinks were simply amazing. Our recommendation are the the Crispy Skin Trout, Jumbo crab cake, or the mahi ahi tacos, and lemon dill salmon. Will be back.

  • Review 121 (2021-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    My mother and I wound up at Del Friscos after a show at Radio City, I was looking for a place close by that had fantastic reviews and Del Friscos more than lived up to their reputation! We also got to check out the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree because it was right next to the restaurant, which as native New Yorkers is not something we are wont to do because of the crowds, but it was lovely to see it and not be surrounded by tons of people. Del Friscos location is wonderful and close to a lot of things that youd love to see if youre visiting the city or, even if you live here but are taking in the sights.Lets talk about the food though because it was absolutely mouthwateringly delicious and I wish I was there right now. The deviled eggs appetizer were the best deviled eggs I have ever had. The only reason we didnt order more was because we wanted to try more things on the menu and Im thrilled that we did because the sweet corn bisque was divine. It was so good that I was in a war with myself between eating slowly and savoring every spoonful or eating it all immediately because I couldnt stop. It was velvety and so incredibly flavorful and I wish I could eat it every single day of my life. The prime beef short rib stroganoff was so tender that it fell apart at the touch of the fork. It was perfection: delicious and comforting. We ordered the lemon doberge cake for dessert and were shocked at how large it was. It was melt in your mouth decadence and we bough half of it home to eat later. We arent big drinkers but the drinks were also fantastic!The service was great, our waiter was wonderful and happy to accommodate anything we asked. When my mother couldnt decide on a salad dressing he brought out three for her to taste and decide on. I mentioned that I didnt like sour cream when I asked for it removed from my entree and he made sure that my soup was sour cream free which I had missed. Everyone we encountered who worked there was kind and friendly.Two things worth noting:1. The actual menu differs a bit from the website so if you think there isnt anything for you based on the website menu you might be pleasantly surprised by the on site menu. Mostly everything we ordered wasnt on the website menu at all.2. It gets VERY dark inside when they dim the lights. Every table around us, including us, had to use their phones to see the menu and their food once the lights dimmed. One table even had to ask a waiter for a light from his phone because they didnt have smart phones. I am 33 and have had LASIK recently so it was not that bad for me but if you are with anyone who has issues with their sight or are on the older side this may be a big problem.Overall I definitely had a wonderful time and will be going back! Ive been recommending it to everyone I know so if youre thinking about it make a reservation and go!

    I had their 45 day aged steak, with spinach on the side and a NY cheesecake. It was OK, but I did not taste anything extra either in the quality of their ingredients, preparation or presentation. Therefore I believe it is a bit overpriced.

    Del Friscos Grille is one of my personal favorite Go-to spots in the midtown area. They have nearly every kind of beverage you might be looking for. From a Jack an Coke to the world-renounced Louis Xiii Cognac. The wine selection is also quite good. For food, I always order their cheesesteak spring rolls. Those are delicious! And the sauce that comes with it is also delicious! I absolutely recommend this place. It is pricey though.

    This is a very nice restaurant. The food is good as is the service. It is important to note that this is not the same as the Double Eagle restaurant that is nearby. I would say the quality of the food is as high but the food is more casual and also is reflected that way in the prices.
