Don't eat steak much but pretty darn good!

by bkbigfish at Citysearch

Not a big steak connoisseur but do enjoy it from time to time. I had the 12 oz. filet mignon since I like my cuts pretty lean. Nicely peppered for seasoning. The waiters make sure your meat is cooked to perfection. The sides were fine but honestly I could do without....it's all about the beef. Others in my party ordered the bone-in filet and bone-in ribeye....all thoroughly enjoyed it. I've also gone to Prime Steakhouse at the Bellagio, but I would say the dining experience and food is better here at Del Friscos.

• Pros: Nicely seasoned, tender cuts.
• Cons: None.

Avoid this one in Vegas

by Finediner25 at Citysearch

We were so disappointed in Del Friscos in Las Vegas. We have been to Del Friscos in Manhattan and Texas and they were great. We made reservations and told them it was for a birthday. We were first put into a noisy side room and then moved to the main dining room but at the entrance of the kitchen which wasn't great becasue some of the servers bumped into your seat. It was mainly the food that was disappointing. We had someone at the table with a food allergy and the the waiter didn't know that their mashed potatoes had onions! The spinach was mediocre, the stone crab was not cracked adequately so it made it hard to eat and the most expensive bone in filet had to be sent back because we couldn't cut through it. The manager tried to make up for it with some deseert but then the bill was incorrect twice! Once with someone elses 6 drinks. We will not be returning to the one in Vegas anytime soon.

• Pros: Good name
• Cons: The food, the service and check your bill!!

Average

For a romantic place this is a miss...more like a sports bar with high prices.

The food was really good but the rest of the experience was ruined by loud convention goers in shorts and loud shirts.There is a dress code, guess no one can read.

Large Group--Hit or Miss

by KarenJHale at Citysearch

I've toyed between giving the Las Vegas location an Average or Recommended Rating. The wait staff was very prompt and attentive but as we sat down to the table--did not have time to enjoy the first drink before they wanted to take our order. "So we can get the menus off of the table" Felt very rushed through the meal. Waiter suggested a variety of appetizers for the table consisting of crab cakes, jumbo shrimp and calamari. All were good. The special of the night a 15'' bone in steak was not any bigger or tastier than the prime rib eye--this one you definitely pay for the bone!! The waiter suggested the lobster for the table (largest) and anyone who orders lobster knows they are older and tougher--assured it was not; tough as expected and definitely over cooked. We had a variety of items ordered at the table, turtle soup (very peppery) the filets were cooked as ordered large portions, the salmon looked nice, grouper special was nice, and the shrimp scampi looked good (piled high with tomatoes). Ala Carte side dishes are just that... potatoes au gratin, asparagus, broccoli, spinach supreme (oops they forgot to bring those out). When the meal is served--they bring out more wait staff to serve the ala carte items and the table will be swarming. I personally have no issues paying for a good meal, so if you do not mind being up sold for every item--the steaks are good and cooked to order---it was just rather disappointing since lived in Dallas and having been there numerous times--Viva Las Vegas just did not measure up!!!

• Pros: Attentive Waitstaff
• Cons: Not good for large groups unless you rent a private room
