Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House

Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House is an American fine-dining steakhouse chain established in 1981. The brand operates in the United States and is associated with an upscale dining format centered on steakhouse meals and a formal restaurant experience. For much of its corporate history, the chain was operated by Del Frisco's Restaurant Group, which also managed other restaurant concepts. This structure positioned Double Eagle as one of the group's principal full-service dining brands rather than as an independent single-location restaurant. The brand's identity is built around premium steakhouse dining. Its name, service model, and positioning place it in the higher-end segment of the American restaurant industry, where the dining experience combines a specialized menu format with an emphasis on hospitality and occasion-based consumption. The available reference material identifies the concept as a fine-dining steakhouse but does not provide a complete historical account of its founders, headquarters, detailed menu architecture, or individual restaurant openings. A major corporate turning point occurred in September 2019, when Landry's, Inc. acquired the restaurant from Del Frisco's Restaurant Group. At the time of the acquisition, the chain was reported to have 71 locations across the United States. The transaction changed the brand's corporate ownership while preserving Double Eagle as a recognizable steakhouse concept within Landry's broader restaurant portfolio. Public reference material supplied for this entry does not establish whether all 71 locations remained open after the transaction, nor does it provide a current location count. Under Landry's ownership, Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House remains an active United States restaurant brand based on the available material. Its principal business is the operation of branded, full-service steakhouse restaurants. No reliable information was supplied for a current chief executive, founder, headquarters address, public listing, ticker symbol, or official website URL, so those fields are left unreported rather than inferred.

Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House was founded in 1981 as a United States steakhouse concept. The available reference material identifies it as a fine-dining restaurant chain, but does not document the founder, original opening location, early expansion sequence, or the individuals responsible for its creation. These details therefore remain unconfirmed in this dossier. During its development, Double Eagle operated as part of the Del Frisco's Restaurant Group. The group structure allowed the brand to function as a multi-unit restaurant concept rather than as an isolated independent steakhouse. Its commercial identity was based on upscale full-service dining, with the steakhouse format serving as the central organizing feature of the brand. The supplied reference does not provide a detailed account of menu changes, advertising campaigns, design evolution, or regional expansion. By the time of its change in ownership in 2019, the chain had expanded to 71 locations across the United States. This footprint indicates that the brand had developed into a substantial national restaurant chain within the American steakhouse segment. The reference material does not specify how the locations were distributed by state or metropolitan area, and no current store count is established here. In September 2019, Landry's, Inc. acquired the restaurant from Del Frisco's Restaurant Group. The acquisition was the principal documented corporate milestone in the supplied sources. It transferred ownership of the Double Eagle concept to Landry's, a large United States restaurant operator, while retaining the brand as a distinct steakhouse name. The available material does not state whether the acquisition led to changes in branding, management, restaurant design, menu, pricing, or operating strategy. The brand is treated as active because the reference describes it as an operating restaurant chain and identifies its continuing association with Landry's. However, the supplied sources do not provide enough current information to describe its present location count, leadership, headquarters, financial performance, or recent campaigns. Those areas require further verification.
