"We are thrilled to be honored as a Hot Concept by Nation's Restaurant News, an award we deem very prestigious in the foodservice industry," said Mednansky. "We built Del Frisco's Grille to feel modern, inviting, stylish and fun for our guests, and I think the editors at Nation's Restaurant News saw those qualities come together in a unique way at our restaurant. This award is a tremendous honor and a strong validation of the Del Frisco's Grille concept, and we look forward to continuing to build on this momentum."
Del Frisco's Grille is rapidly expanding. The newest Grille opened on July 14 on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C. and the next Grille will open in October in Atlanta's upscale Buckhead neighborhood. Del Frisco's Grille opened in The Esplanade in Phoenix on June 9, preceded by the first two Grilles last year in Manhattan at Rockefeller Center and in Dallas' Uptown neighborhood. At approximately 7,500 square feet, Del Frisco's Grille works well as a stand-alone restaurant and also has potential as a restaurant within a hotel.
Del Frisco's Restaurant Group -- the leading steakhouse company in the country -- owns and operates more than 30 restaurants across the country, including the Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House and Sullivan's Steakhouse brands. The Del Frisco's team created Del Frisco's Grille as a nimble third brand for the company, presenting a varied menu of easy-to-share dishes such as wood oven-baked flatbreads and hearty salads, while carrying over the Del Frisco's hallmarks of quality foods, excellent preparations and a lively, fun environment marked by genuine hospitality.
For guests, the varied menu means digging into signature dishes such as Ahi Tacos and Cheesesteak Egg Rolls. For traditionalists, the Grille serves prime steak, and the diverse, 500-selection wine list is much more extensive than those found in the typical bar and grill. Other favorites at the Grille include imaginative and memorable cocktails like The Kilt Lifter, Apt. 5D, and shots on tap. Guests can enjoy these at the restaurant's energetic bar, a destination its own right.
