Long wait even with a reservation, but the food was very good, the meats were excellent. It's expensive but worth it, and the location in the heart of New York with a view of Radio City Hall is worth the price... professional and friendly s...

We had a 9:00 dinner reservation. We arrived about 10 minutes early and checked in, but were not seated until 9:20 while about 10 other parties that were the same size as ours came in after us and were seated before us. When we were seated...

Made a reservation and still had to wait an extra 45 mins to get until the table was ready. Our family was visiting NYC for a day and wanted to get some steak. So I made reservation a week ahead of time because I knew the popularity of the...

My family and I recently visited Del Frisco Double Eagle in New York City, and unfortunately, our experience fell short of our expectations. Despite making reservations in advance, we were still made to wait an extra 20 minutes for a table,...

I finally went to Del Frisco's after a couple of friends raved about it. I ordered the usual bone-in ribeye to ensure a fair comparison to the many other steakhouses I've been to. Upon receiving the steak it came overcooked. We ordered medi...

Dynamite steaks, one of the best crab cakes in the city and a fantastic wine list. Coupled with outstanding service, I’ve never had a bad meal here after over a decade of them!! Bone in filet is always a good choice.

This restaurant is simply not what it is advertised to be. The wait staff is horrible, no seconds for bread and they were “out” of 3 options on the menus. Plus the food is VERY salty.

This is a tourist trap where the waiters try to upsell you relentlessly, particularly for larger groups. No regard for customer service, just restaurant profits.
