    Despite being a chaotic Christmas night in the city, and a very long line to be seated at Del Frisco’s; we were seated promptly on time and had a great view of the front Christmas tree. Our food was served extremely fast, and tasted fantastic. Our waitress was also amazing! We love this location and can’t wait to come back.

    My group were 7 adults and a 4 yr old celebrating our traditional family Christmas Eve dinner. The staff were gracious. They were accommodating to my request that we be seated in main dining room and very attentive to the 4yr child order of her favorite crispy Calamari which is not gummy. We all agreed. She was served first! The steaks were delicious and juicy. The Branzino is cooked to perfection as well as the Grilled Octopus and the Shrimp Scampi. The side dishes of spinach, steak fries and mushrooms are so tasty. The Lobster Bisque soup is to die for. All of us agreed this the best dinner experience at Empire Steak House. Most importantly, we have the choice to order either Pre Fixed or Ala carte. Price is right!

    This was a holiday experience worth having on Christmas Eve. This was also the first time my guest got to experience this lovely restaurant. The calamari was an amazing starter along with the bone marrow, the cappers were a nice touch. The main dishes were able to be taken home as the large portions are a plus. The pork chops & the porterhouse steak were so delicious. The drinks were also on point as the mojito had a nice mint flavor to it. Thanks again for having us & I plan to return again. Merry Xmas
