    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 .

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

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.

    Dined in restaurant on a Saturday around 8pm. When I approached the hostess table, she asked "table…read morefor 2?" even though I was by myself. She was most likely on auto pilot and appeared embarrassed when she realized it. I politely smiled and said (confidently), table for 1. We solo diners need to be loud and proud! I digress... Before being seated I found the restroom. I found it odd that it was extremely dim. The main dining room was brighter than the restroom! I also saw the Photo Booth. Interesting addition. $5 for pictures. I was seated at a small round table with two chairs by the window. The restaurant was plenty busy, and I'm just glad I wasn't asked if I wanted to sit at the bar (I didn't). My server Noel brought two bottles of water: still and sparkling. I requested lemon slices, which he brought. And I proceeded to finish the entire bottle of sparkling by the end of the meal...guess I was thirsty! But I appreciated the option of both. I forgot to ask for a straw, but saw them in a container at the register right behind my table, so I got one myself. After ordering I noticed a nearby table had some bread so I asked Noel if they served complimentary bread. He said yes and apologized for not bringing it initially. Not that I needed it, but I don't eat bread with butter often and this was a night out to indulge a bit. There were two slices, nothing special. My food arrived within about 10-15 minutes and looked so scrumptious. I ordered the lamb and short rib meatballs and Brussels sprouts. The meatballs were pretty good, but what made them even better was the tzatziki sauce. I didn't realize the green rice was on one side of the plate until I was almost done. That tzatziki sauce was really all I needed to go with the meatballs. It was cool and creamy to go with the dry, meatiness of the meatballs. I honestly wish there had been more of it! I did not finish the rice, which didn't look super appetizing because of the intense green color. I will say though, I'm not a fan of spicy food but the tzatziki had a kick. I think perhaps due to chopped jalapeños. I tried to avoid them once I realized. The Brussels were delicious! Roasted to perfection, not too charred and not too mushy. I requested the green goddess sauce on the side because I'm not a huge sauce person, but once I tried it, I couldn't stop. Again, the combination of the creaminess of the sauce with the flakiness of the Brussels was a genius pairing. During the meal the beverage manager stopped by. I didn't have any drinks with the meal, but perhaps I will return to see what they have. Noel brought the bill at my request, then brought over the portable device so I could pay at the table. While that process is efficient, it's always awkward leaving a tip when the server is standing right there. Anyhow, overall it was a good experience and a delicious meal!
