Another Standout Evening at Del Frisco’s – Elevated by Jake’s Exceptional Service After a great dinner earlier in the week, I found myself back at Del Frisco’s on Wednesday for another business meal—and this one may have been even better. The evening delivered on all fronts: excellent food, a welcoming atmosphere, and standout service from our server, Jake. Del Frisco’s remains a go-to for business dinners. The setting strikes just the right tone—refined yet relaxed—perfect for conversation and connection. From the moment we walked in, everything flowed smoothly, thanks to the attentive and polished team. Jake brought genuine energy and hospitality to the table. He was knowledgeable, personable, and made thoughtful menu suggestions tailored to our tastes—including a special featuring Wagyu strip steak, lobster tail, and a refreshing heirloom tomato and watermelon arugula salad that stole the show. My guest enjoyed the bone-in filet with a flawless Pittsburgh char, plus creamed corn and wild mushrooms—timeless favorites, done right. A big thanks as well to the host, who always greets me as though he knows me, and the management team, who consistently stop by to check in and ensure the night is going well. That kind of personal touch really sets Del Frisco’s apart. It’s not a complicated formula—but they get it right every time, and my guests and I truly appreciate it. Of course, we wrapped up with the legendary butter cake and a glass of Balvenie 14 Caribbean Cask—a perfect end to a memorable evening. Del Frisco’s continues to deliver not just great meals, but great experiences. It’s the people who make the difference, and they do it with heart. We’ll definitely be back soon.

Always a Fun Feast Experience at a reasonable cost

Food was delicious when it arrived. The kitchen was not busy, but others at our table mentioned what I was thinking--namely that it took too long to prepare the entrees. We loved the various offerings on the menu and appreciated the quiet dining space that was well-appointed.

Food was really great….slightly warm on a hot humid day but the quality of the food was so great we loved it.

Terrific meal. Food was first rate and the service was even better!
