The wedge salad, filet and sriracha Brussels sprouts were fantastic!

Perfect! Was able to RSVP, but despite the delay with seating the evening was incredible.

A Truly Unforgettable Dining Experience at Eddie Merlot’s From the moment we walked into Eddie Merlot’s, we knew we were in for something special, but we never could have imagined just how incredible our evening would be. Celebrating our 16th wedding anniversary, we were treated to an experience that was nothing short of exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious, each bite crafted with care and bursting with flavor. But what truly set the evening apart was the outstanding service. Sean was amazing. The kind of server every restaurant dreams of having. He was attentive without being overbearing, incredibly detail-oriented, and had such a warm and genuine personality. His dedication to making our night special did not go unnoticed, and we truly believe the world needs more Seans and Keiths. And then there was Kevin, whose kindness and generosity left us speechless. Not only did he make sure we had a fantastic time, but he also gifted us a gift card to come back and enjoy the experience all over again. That level of thoughtfulness is rare, and it speaks volumes about the culture of hospitality at Eddie Merlot’s. Thank you to Sean, Kevin, and the entire team for making our anniversary one we will never forget. We are already looking forward to our next visit! See you next time!

It was our first time visiting Del Frisco’s Double Eagle. I made the reservation for my dad’s ‘big’ birthday (65th). Madilyn, our server, was excellent! She was so kind, accommodating, knowledgeable and made my dad’s night by playing along with us as we celebrated his “21st” birthday ;). She was prompt and accurate, the service exceeded my expectations. Our evening didn’t exactly start out on a great note, we were an hour late for our initial reservation. However, one of the hosts, Lexi, was very accommodating and helped us move our reservation to a more appropriate time, twice, and wished us safe travels on what should’ve been a half hour drive in traffic. Once at the restaurant, we were initially sat at a small, slightly cramped table next to a doorway with a lot of foot traffic; this wasn’t suitable for my mom’s taste. They graciously adjusted and we were then sat at another, more suitable, table; which we then discovered included a frigid draft whenever someone entered or exited the restaurant. By that point we were already seated and I guess you could say committed after our travel ordeal. I swear it was only a minute (maybe 2) after we initially sat and were just getting acclimated with with the menu, when Madi visited our table, introduced herself, and distracted us from our evening’s woes. I definitely think this will be a birthday to remember. It was also a gentle reminder that great service and friendly, accommodating staff can honestly make all the difference. We’d love to come back in the future.

The server was really excellent. She knew everything about each item on the menu and was really exceptional regarding giving us space and bringing the food at the appropriate time. My wife super enjoyed the lamb and all of the food was perfectly prepared. Our first time at seasons 52, but it will not be our last. I can highly recommend it.
