    Butter Cake
    Shavon C.

    Oh my goodness! The butter cake is a must! It is full of flavor and makes you want more when it's all gone, so eat it slow and savor every piece! The crabcakes were good. The broccolini was fresh and had a garlic butter taste that was really good. The creamed corn was good also. Our sever was friendly and very attentive. Highly recommended if you're looking for fine dining in the city.

    Had the burger sitting at the bar and the service was prompt. Came for a late lunch waiting on evening flight for a strong end to the week. Wanted lighter option so chose the side salad and it hit the spot. Have been to multiple locations and they are very consistent. Will stop by on my next time in DC for work! (Side note to the team for sharing the wifi code helping me check my email thanks!)

    Del Frisco's was amazing from start to finish. For appetizers, I had the octopus and it was phenomenal cooked perfectly and full of flavor. My friend had the Rockefeller oysters, and those were just as good. For my entrée, I had the Chilean sea bass with the fried rice that had crab in it, and it was so good. The sea bass was perfectly flaky, and the fried rice had big chunks of lump crab that made it even better. The bread was also wonderful so light, fluffy, and full of buttery flavor. My friend got the surf and turf, and we were pleasantly surprised because we were not expecting three pieces of steak. It was amazing. Her boyfriend got the salmon with mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. The creamed spinach was so good. rich, smoky, and full of flavor. For dessert, they brought out a butter cake for my friend's birthday, and that was truly the star of the show. It has been over a month and I still think about that cake. Our server was wonderful and helped make the experience even better. It was my friend's birthday, and they made sure to bring something special out for her. She was pregnant, so she could not take the champagne they offered, but the gesture was still appreciated. Thank you for the cake and for such an amazing time.

    Stopped in to grab a few bites from the bar menu. I tried the wedge salad, wagyu hot dog, and steak & lobster skewers. The bites were good as was the service and this is the perfect stop if you're shopping in city center .

    I have to tip my cap to the staff at Del Frisco's for providing such a tremendous service throughout the evening. And when my meal was served, I was pleasantly surprised at how good their double lump crab cakes were ( full of crab meat with every bite ) While the lobster mac & cheese hit a serene high note that sent my taste buds into quite the 2-step. This was a Friday night so the atmosphere was lively without being too loud.

    LOBSTER BISQUE
    Samone J.

    We were out running errands without any dinner plans in sight. He then thought, it's been a while! So here is where we came for dinner. We sat at the upstairs bar, were able to get a seat rather quickly before it got completely full. One thing that grossed me out a bit was watching a waiter pick something out of a customer drink by hand and sniff the drink--like nose all up in the cup--before whisking it away to an unknowing patron. Like ma'am? Unsanitary--have you not learned a thing or two over the past couple years! I also saw the bartender removing glasses from the dishwasher before it finished its cycle... again, unsanitary!!! But but i only observed each offense once. Aside from that? Bar team was fantabulous--attentive, helpful. Now it took well over 30 min for our oysters and lobster bisque starters to come out. Bc of that we were given a free cheesecake that we crushed when we got home. My lobster bisque was creamy, budding with flavor. They did not skimp on the lobster bits either, well done! The portion is absolutely made for 2--if you eat this all by yourself you are greedy you hear me?! lol. He loved the oysters and the fresh minnionete--he said they were some of the best he's had this oyster season! My lamb chops were cooked perfectly well and so was his steak. Both were tinder and juicy, seasoned very well. We loved the potato au gratin, it was one of the stars of our meal. The mushrooms were a little bland , but otherwise delicious. Overall, very good meal and choice for dinner.

    Finding a foodie partner in crime to do life with was probably the best thing that's happened to me. I love love love to try new places and my better half knows that, so he is constantly taking me places I've never been. Our couple rule, if we haven't been together we haven't been at all. So, on our Sunday Funday, he chose Del Frisco's. It was time to update this review as it's been ages! As always, great pick lover! I love Double Eagle! I am a Del Frisco fan! City Center is conveniently located where this fine dining establishment is. Before COVID this used to be our stop after the office, it's also a family Christmas stop for me too. I LOVE this place. Even though I've been many times, Sunday Funday was my chance to come back to Double Eagle with MY guy! Ambiance is finer causal dining experience, I wouldn't say you have to be dressed up, as I've come causal but I've also come dressed up. Totally can do both. Let's get into it! I'm a fan of the Sea Bass and Filet! You can never go wrong! Lobster Mac - YES please! Drinks are always good pours! Highly recommend! Not quite 5 stars for me as dishes haven't been consistent during visits. I've had to send back items to get redone, and I don't like complaining but I'm also paying top dollar and want to eat. Still worthy of 4 stars.

    Fresh rolls

    We made reservations for an early dinner, although I'm not sure why we chose a steakhouse since we don't eat steak. The menu didn't appeal to me for that reason, as I typically prefer a wider selection of vegan options. Having already tried two other restaurants in the area, we added this one to complete our list. If nothing more, we decided to get some photo content. Unfortunately, the weather was not suitable for outdoor photos; it started to rain, and we had to go inside. Since we were already there, my daughter ordered lobster mac and cheese, sautéed mushrooms, and a shrimp appetizer. I decided not to order anything for myself but sampled her dishes. While we waited, a staff member brought some delicious bread to the table, which was a nice touch. The lobster mac and cheese was creamy and packed with lobster in every bite. The mushrooms were perfectly cooked, but they were a bit over-salted. The shrimp appetizer was undercooked yet flavorful. The ambiance inside the restaurant was great. After the outdoor seating did not work out, we chose a table by the window overlooking the City Center shops. The ambient lighting was perfect, and the decor was elegant. Our waiter was okay, but I sensed he was somewhat annoyed that we didn't order entrees. After we placed our order, his energy shifted, and he became less attentive to our table. The restaurant is worth visiting, especially for steak lovers, as the restaurant's name suggests. There were some fish entrees available, but none appealed to me. From observation, the restaurant's bar is a popular attraction, which could be another reason to visit. Overall, while the menu didn't cater to my preferences, the food I did sample was good. The service was fair but not great, and the ambiance and location were outstanding.

    Sea Seared Chilean Seabass
    Ria R.

    I am a Landry's President Club member. Well, that didn't matter at this location. Whenever I go to a Landry's restaurant as a President Club member, the manager always comes over to greet me and my experience is always validated. Well, not here. They could've cared less...that is until it was time to use my points to pay. What a train-wreck. Presenting my president's card to pay has ALWAYS been seamless at every other restaurant in the Landry's portfolio EXCEPT here. I don't even think they credited me properly for the meal. I ordered the pork chop and au gratin potatoes. My husband ordered the sea bass. The food itself was fine, but at the end of my meal, I had to bag my own food. This is a high end steakhouse. I don't bag my leftovers at Landry's lower end steakhouses and this is the luxury end of their brand. There was also a table in front of us where the patron was very unhappy and the manager just walked away from the table while the gentleman was mid-sentence. The gentleman got up and followed the manager which created a scene. No apology or acknowledgement. The customer service was subpar. Nothing like what I'm used to. I should've followed the reviews on Yelp where they have a 3.4 out of 5. The ambiance was ok. We had seating next to a large window so I could see the lit bare trees and the lights from the Chanel and LV store. Parking looked rough so we took an uber from our hotel. Overall, overpriced for the experience. Too many other steak and seafood restaurants to choose from with much better customer service.

    I recently returned to Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse, a place I've enjoyed many times, and I felt compelled to share my experience. This restaurant continues to impress with its classic American steakhouse ambiance, which has remained as inviting as ever. Ambiance: The atmosphere is warm and sophisticated, perfect for both casual dining and special occasions. The views are simply stunning, enhancing the overall dining experience. Food: The menu offers a fantastic selection of high-quality steaks, seafood and sides. Everything I ordered was cooked to perfection, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to excellence in every dish. Service: The service was exceptional, with attentive staff who ensured that my client and I had everything we needed throughout our meal. Their professionalism truly elevated the experience. Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse remains a top choice for anyone looking for great food, fabulous service, and a memorable atmosphere.

    Tiramisu crème brûlée
    Amy N.

    Presumably you're coming to Del Frisco's for the steak, and I'm happy to say I really enjoyed the filet I had here a few weeks ago. The tiramisu crème brûlée was also a hit! Could tell by the crowd that this is a more upscale spot for the post-Caps game set coming down from what may be a bar upstairs.

    Filet Mignon 8 oz and Whipped Potatoes
    Marissa H.

    Celebrated my friends birthday at Del Frisco's. They booked a private room for a group of about 16 of us. The room was the perfect size for us and had the perfect ambiance. There was also a great view of DC from the second floor where our room was located. I forget our servers name but he was great. He was very personable and had good recommendations. Out host chose selections for our limited menu and everyone enjoyed what they had. For appetizers we all enjoyed the Nueske's Thick Cut Bacon. They was very tasty and had a surprising kick. I enjoyed their lemon drop martinis. For my selections I had the wedge salad, the 8 oz filet mignon and the strawberry cheesecake. The sides were family style and we had whipped mashed potatoes and asparagus. Everything was delicious.

    King crab sushi
    Mike R.

    3.5 stars. Team and me had our quarterly meeting here and we ate family-style. + Fresh baked bread with glaze (yummy!) (tasted like a donut) + Wagyu Meatballs (yummy!) + Filet Mignon Medallions/over Mashed Potatoes (lunch menu - yummy!) + King Crab Rainbow Roll + Colossal Lump Crab Cocktail + Shanghai-Style Fried Calamari (yummy!) + Thick-Cut Nueske's Bacon + Sauteed mushrooms + Side of pasta + Side of fries + Half a dozen bottles of Pellegrino + Add a couple garden salads (croutons and Romaine) + Butter cake, caramel sauce and ice cream ** Bathrooms were immaculate ** Service was okay. Everything was satisfactory. My crab cakes weren't "colossal" by any stretch - overcooked and slightly burnt. My king crab rainbow roll was... a'ight. The meatballs were super tasty though! Two to an order and the sauce was super flavorful. Boss took care of the bill. I'm sure it was every bit of $700+. I'd come back for the butter cake alone. We were there at opening and pretty much the only patrons in the joint (upstairs) at the time so maybe they were just warming up or something - who knows. Parking is DC tragic, but there's a lot across the street that you can pay for that costs about $20.

    Can I wear a baseball cap?

    They don't allow baseball caps. However it's easy to simply take it off before you walk inside the establishment

    Is there a dress code?

    No, it's casual.

    How good is the tomahawk steak?

    I was not impressed. Had better elsewhere. I suggest just ordering a smaller steak or a regular ribeye .

    How's the tomahawk bone-in steak?

    I didn't have the tomahawk, but if it is anything like the prime ribeye that I had then it will definitely be great. The steaks juicy and well seasoned that they literally make you forget about the side dishes you ordered.

If you do anything when you go, please make sure to get the biscuits. Hands down THE BEST BISCUITS I've ever had lol. They are the most flaky and buttery biscuits, you can count each layer that these have. Pro tip is to ask for butter and the house made jam. The pimento cheese is good with them but it becomes a little too decadent. Overall I'm happy we made the decision to come here, we will be back soon.

We were sat in the solarium area, and it was during the heat dome, and it was really warm in there. Otherwise, though, it's completely charming inside and reminds us of some of the best French bistros we've been to in the country (e.g. Balzathar, Le Supreme). The three cocktails we tried--the frose, le jardin, and the clouseau--were all stunners. And of course the bread deserves another special mention, *especially* the room temperature butter. Thank you for not serving hard as hell butter! We shared the warm shrimp salad to start, and for $31, we were expecting more than a few avocado slices and 4 shrimp on it, but c'est la vie. The dressing was incredible, and the greens were crunchy. That's actually the only dish of the night that we thought was unfairly overpriced. One of us ordered the burger and the other got the rabbit pappardelle--you've got to get rabbit when you see it on a menu, which isn't often enough! There was a good amount of super tender meat and the pasta was perfectly al dente, all in a lightly stunning sauce. Chef's kiss. The burger was, no surprise, another triumph. There was juicy meat, bun integrity, and all the right accouterment notes. The fries are standard. Our daughter got their mac-n-cheese, which is probably just the gratin dish renamed. It was OK. We kind of got out of control for dessert and ordered the pot de creme, the cookie dough ice cream, and the profiteroles. Honestly, these were all good, but nothing that stood out as exemplary as with the savory stuff. Our only major complaint was the service. It was really spotty and while there was a very, very long gap in between when we got our water and then put in our drinks, but our mains came out almost directly after the salad. And the guy was just not very hospitable. Not necessarily a "bad" experience...it just could have been a lot better. Four stars, and we have already declared that we will be back again to "The Dip" because there is so much else on the menu that we want to try.

This was my first time dining here, and it was for a Valentine's Day date. The ambience was beautiful, and the food was amazing. Unfortunately, our waiter left a bit to be desired--he seemed disconnected and wasn't very attentive until it was time for the bill, which was disappointing. Aside from that, I genuinely enjoyed the menu and would definitely return for another visit.

We stopped in around 1:20 PM and were able to grab seats at the bar, which turned out to be a great choice. The Bourbon Lemonade was easily one of the highlights of the meal, refreshing, perfectly balanced, and full of flavor. If you're looking for a cocktail, this is definitely one to order. The chicken sandwich sliders were delicious, with juicy chicken and a soft biscuit, but the honey drizzle was a little overpowering for my taste. I'd recommend asking for the honey on the side so you can control the sweetness while still enjoying the flavors of the chicken and biscuit. The scrambled eggs were decent, but nothing particularly memorable. They were presented beautifully on a stylish plate, though the taste itself was fairly standard. The bartenders were attentive, friendly, and kept everything moving smoothly despite the busy lunch crowd. The service matched the upscale feel of the restaurant and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, Yardbird is a great brunch or lunch spot with a welcoming atmosphere, quality food, and excellent drinks. I'd definitely stop by again the next time I'm in the DC area.

They are happy to recommend beer for your taste, and let you sample. It can be very busy and difficult to get a seat at the bar or get a table on a Friday or Saturday evening. We ordered food, and were expecting elevated bar food. The tater tots were a huge disappointment- they were very large squares , bland, and not crispy. The wings were okay. The cheeseburgers were the best- from the restaurant downstairs- mallard. Huge burger, done perfectly medium.

I visited as part of the full experience -- dinner downstairs at Birch & Barley, then up to Churchkey for drinks -- and honestly, it's one of the best evenings I've had in DC. Churchkey itself is everything a great bar should be. The beer selection is absolutely unreal -- hundreds of carefully curated labels spanning every style, region, and flavor profile you can imagine. What sets it apart is that the staff actually knows the menu. Our server walked us through a few options based on what we liked and landed us on perfect picks both times. That kind of genuine expertise is rare. The tavern pizzas from the wood-fired oven were a wonderful surprise -- thin, crispy, and the perfect companion to a cold draft. The smash burger also deserves a mention: simple, well-executed, and hits the spot. The vibe is warm and lively without being overwhelming. Great for a date, a group, or even just sitting at the bar solo with a good beer and good conversation with the bartender. This place has earned its reputation as one of the best beer bars on the East Coast -- and then some. Highly recommend making a full night of it with both floors. You won't regret it. Feel free to adjust the tone or add any personal details from your actual visit!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We could tell that they had all the families with little kids grouped to one side of the restaurant, and we felt that was clever and convenient. The food was great! We both got salads. I loved the snap pea chicken salad. And my husband really liked the soba noodle salmon salad. He had a Bloody Mary, and I had a yummy mocktail. Everything was great, including the service!

If that Coke wasn't a Pepsi, it was definitely a Coke Zero or Diet Coke. It tasted awful. Now, the food. The fries were pretty decent, but the au jus that came with my French dip wasn't hot, and it wasn't enough for the whole sandwich. The bread is supposed to get lost in the au jus with every bite. I had to ask for another boat. The menu said the sandwich had Gruyère, but if it was there, I couldn't taste it. I could taste horseradish and arugula. It wasn't worth the $33 menu price. The ambiance is a bit loud. The restaurant is very reverb-y, so I heard lots of talking (though some of it was probably due to the music's being too loud), but the waitstaff didn't compensate, so it was hard to hear their voices.

Honestly we were so pleasantly surprised by how good the burgers are! I had the Capital Burger which had such incredible flavor and the burger itself is thick and juicy. Despite having just had a big dinner somewhere else, as I write this, my mouth is watering. My daughter had the wild mushrooms burger and she loved it -- the aioli had the perfect tang to go with the mushroom and Swiss, both burgers were cooked perfectly medium as requested. The old fashioned was just your typical old fashioned with a slice of candied bacon attached to the outside of the glass. We were hoping for something smokier and a little different but it was still a very good Old Fashioned. We shared the chocolate mousse and it was perfection. Yum! If I lived here this would be my new regular spot.
