Del Frisco Houston Galleria | Summer Sips Event

For anyone living in Houston, visiting Houston regularly or thinking about coming to our great city, then we have a restaurant stop for you. If you are steak lover then Del Frisco’s is a great choice but if steaks aren’t on your diet then they have many other options equally as good. Today we are talking Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steak House .located at the Galleria of Houston and about a fun Summer Sips event that I co-hosted with longtime Houston blogger Roz Pactor of My Red Glasses

Roz and Jessica Meyerson (Stevens PR Group, Houston)  reached out to me a while back to have some fun hosting an evening event at Houston’s Galleria Del Frisco to celebrate their 10 year anniversary and share the wonderful but subtle renovations that have been done over the last year or so. With both of our heads together, we created an invite list that certainly proved to deliver a very good time.  A younger crowd had fun hanging out with several of us seasoned types where all enjoyed a few laughs. We celebrated friends, food and drinks and a newly remodeled venue. What a gorgeous place!! Happy 10 Year Anniversary Del Frisco!!

A highlight of my evening was meeting regional manager Arthur Mooradian. Since I don’t eat in town regularly, I didn’t know that Arthur is a beloved centerpiece of this establishment. He was very proud to share with us all the beautiful enhancements made over the last year.

Some newly renovated things to notice:

• The stunning crystal chandelier that cascades from the second floor down to the first floor dining room ( stunning )
• New plush banquets and dining room chairs add pops of red color
• All staircases and flooring were updated from the former green slate to a contemporary black and white marble which gives the space a more clean and sophisticated look overall
• Custom framed mirrors and red velvet booth upholstery for level 2 booths
• The bar tops were updated with marble and the face of the bar is now upholstered in Italian cowhide
• Private dining rooms and wine cellar updated

My Outfit Details

My top is by Cezar Galindo. Cezar is one of our very own Houston designers living in NY for over 20 years. He was having a trunk show at Houston boutique Sloan Hall recently and I was lucky enough to snag this beautiful top. I paired it with white jeans but it could certainly be styled for a dressier occasion.
