Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse: Smack-dab in the middle of Midtown lies one of the city’s most talked-about meateries. Del Frisco’s, part of a chain with several Southwestern outposts, has made the leap to the Big City and landed in the good graces of even the most discerning carnivores. Elegant, covered in wood and leather, Del Frisco’s emits that top-of-the-food-chain air that one expects of such places, and the just-fewer-than-500 customers who pack this place leave bigger than they entered. The Double Eagle Strip steak prices just pennies under $50. A large bar up front plays host to white-collared stockbrokers toasting another victory in the market. Since steakhouse waiters are a very specific breed, service is always the last thing to catch on in places like this one. Given time, Double Eagle could join the ranks of the steakhouse elite. |
