Del Frisco's Grille Santa Monica

Went for a birthday celebration; I had indicated as much in the reservation. The food was cold (all of it) and they ended up reheating the steaks and dousing them with butter. It was a bit upsetting especially given the price, but we didn’t let it ruin our night. Other finer details- We ordered a salad as an appetizer and salad plates were not provided, we ended up eating on tiny bread plates. Then, I asked for a birthday treat and the waitress never brought anything over. I wasn’t expecting something free, but after a cold expensive meal, seems like it’s the least they could do. Either way, not sure why the reservation asked if it was an occasion or why the waitress said she’d do something and then didn’t. TLDR: It’s not worth it at all. I Will not go back.

My steak was cold, my mashed potatoes were cold. My son’s steak was under cooked. My daughter’s Mac and cheese had no flavor. The chef needs to taste food. This restaurant does not compare to Del Frisco’s double eagle in San Diego.

Overpriced. for a tiny Cobb salad. Bacon was all fat. A few small pieces of chicken. Had to ask repeatedly for bread. Freezing cold inside seating.

One of my favorite brunch spots, however was very disappointed to discover that brunch is no longer being served.

Great food. Brussels sprouts were cold but everything tasted great. Service was great and very accommodating.
