Very popular and old school steakhouse located off the strip. Despite their location, clearly one of the most popular steakhouses in Vegas and for good reason: their top notch Prime steaks and excellent, albeit very pricey, seafood.
The vibe is very retro with lots of hardwood, live piano music, and great wine and martinis. The James Bond table (ask your waiter for a demo) is a perfect match for this place. Our order:
Seafood plateau - a sampling of their most popular items and priced at an incredible $55/person. Admittedly though, the Alaskan crab legs (5) were fantastic. Fresh and sweet. The Florida stone crab claw was impressively sized but the meat was not as good as the crab legs. The oysters and shrimp were very good.
Crab cake with lobster sauce - the appetizer only includes one crab cake and is overpriced. It is almost entirely crab meat though and tasty.
Bone-in Prime Ribeye - cooked perfectly medium rare and seasoned nicely while letting the meat flavor shine. They do steak right and we shared the 22 ounces.
Lobster Mac and Cheese - the much hyped side dish was delicious and creamy BUT had very little lobster meat. Just a few small tidbits here and there. Good, but if you want a Lobster Mac and Cheese, go to Alexander's Steakhouse in Cupertino and they will show you real lobster chunks.
Service was friendly and on point though it's busy here and the waitstaff are clearly running around. They were kind enough to throw a dessert in (their lemon cake) for a special occasion.
Del Frisco's was a great steakhouse and definitely worth the trip off the strip. The steaks were excellent and a few of the seafood items were truly exceptional.
Prices are high but Del Frisco's is the real deal. It may not match my favorite steakhouse and restaurant of all time, Alexander's Steakhouse (Cupertino), but I wouldn't hesitate coming here again.
Del Frisco's accepts credit cards including Amex.
