Frisco has quietly become one of the deeper steak towns in North Texas, and most people driving up from Dallas have no idea. It’s not one big-name room carrying the whole city — it’s five or six genuinely different places, each good for a different kind of night.
If you’re looking for the best steakhouse Frisco TX has to offer, the honest answer depends on the occasion: III Forks and Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille cover classic white-tablecloth fine dining, Dee Lincoln Prime at The Star pairs steak with a full sushi bar, Randy’s Steakhouse serves dinner inside an 1865 Victorian home on Main Street, and EG Steak brings the all-you-can-eat Brazilian churrascaria format. This guide breaks down all of them, plus what to order, what to expect to pay, and how to pick the right one for the night you’re planning. It sits alongside our full guide to restaurants and dining in Frisco TX, which covers the rest of the city’s food scene beyond steak.

Classic fine dining: III Forks and Perry’s
These are the two rooms to book when the occasion calls for white tablecloths and a wine list that takes a few minutes to read.
III Forks
III Forks sits at 1303 Legacy Drive, and it’s the more formal of the two — dark wood, private dining rooms that can combine into one large space, and a menu built around USDA Prime steaks and fresh seafood. It’s open Monday through Saturday from 4:30pm to 10pm and Sunday 5pm to 8:30pm, with the bar opening at 3pm daily if you want to start with a cocktail before your table’s ready. Reservations run through OpenTable, and it’s worth booking ahead on weekends — this is a popular choice for business dinners given the private rooms, so tables move fast on a Friday night.
The wine list runs deep rather than wide — expect a strong selection of California cabernets and a handful of well-chosen Bordeaux, with a sommelier on hand most nights to talk you through pairings if you ask. Order the bone-in ribeye if you want the house’s strongest cut, and don’t skip the lobster bisque as a starter; it’s consistently one of the better versions of that dish in the DFW area.
Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille
Perry’s sits near the Stonebriar area at 2440 Parkwood Blvd, an easy pairing with a day of shopping at Stonebriar Centre. Hours run Monday through Thursday 4pm to 10pm, Friday 10:30am to 10pm (yes, they do a full lunch service on Fridays), Saturday 4pm to 10pm and Sunday 4pm to 9pm. The dish to know before you order: Perry’s Famous Pork Chop, a seven-finger-tall cut that’s dried, cured, roasted and finished with herb-garlic butter. It sounds like a strange thing to order at a steakhouse and it’s genuinely worth the detour from the ribeye.
Beyond the pork chop, the filet and the prime New York strip are both consistently well-executed, and the tableside Caesar salad prep is a nice bit of theater if you’re bringing guests who haven’t been before. Perry’s also runs a well-regarded happy hour at the bar on weekdays, which is a solid way to sample the kitchen without committing to a full dinner tab.
Between the two, my honest take: III Forks feels more like a traditional steakhouse built for a deal to get closed over dinner, while Perry’s leans a touch more approachable and is the better pick if you’re bringing a group that isn’t all steak purists — the pork chop alone earns it a seat at the table.
The Star District pick: Dee Lincoln Prime
Dee Lincoln Prime sits inside The Star, the Dallas Cowboys’ headquarters district, at 6670 Winning Drive, Suite 400. What sets it apart from every other steakhouse on this list is the sushi bar built right into the dining room — you can order a wagyu ribeye and a spicy tuna roll off the same menu, which is a genuinely useful option when your dinner group can’t agree on cuisine. Hours are Monday through Thursday 4pm to 10pm, Friday and Saturday 4pm to 11pm, and Sunday 5pm to 9pm.
The location is the other selling point. Because it’s inside The Star, you can walk from a Cowboys headquarters tour or an evening at The Star District’s shops and restaurants straight to your table without moving the car. If you’re staying at the hotels near The Star, this is about as convenient as steak dinners get in Frisco.
On the menu itself, expect the usual prime cuts — ribeye, filet, New York strip — alongside a genuinely full sushi program rather than a token roll or two. It’s a smart pick for a table where one person wants steak and another wants something lighter, which is a real and common problem at most of the other restaurants on this list. The bar area also does a brisk happy-hour trade given the office towers and hotels surrounding The Star, so expect it to fill up quickly right after 5pm on weekdays.
The historic pick: Randy’s Steakhouse
Randy’s Steakhouse has been open since 1993, run by owner-chef Randy Burks out of a preserved 1865 Victorian home on Main Street. This is the pick when you want atmosphere that no new-build steakhouse can fake: cozy fireplaces, a charming patio, and seven separate private dining rooms carved out of the old house’s original layout. It serves hand-cut prime steaks, fresh seafood, a full bar and an international wine list, and it’s a genuinely popular choice for private celebrations and small business dinners precisely because of those private rooms.
Skip it if you’re after a big, buzzy dining room — the house layout means Randy’s feels intimate and a little quiet compared to the newer steakhouses on this list, which is exactly the point for a lot of regulars. Owner Randy Burks has run the kitchen himself since opening in 1993, and that continuity shows up in the consistency of the classics — the hand-cut steaks and the seafood selection change little from year to year, which is precisely why regulars keep coming back. The wine list leans international rather than California-heavy, a point of difference from the newer steakhouses on this list. It pairs naturally with a stroll through the rest of Frisco’s historic downtown attractions before or after dinner.
The Brazilian option: EG Steak
EG Steak, at 8650 State Highway 121, is technically not a steakhouse in the American sense — it’s a churrascaria, the Brazilian rodizio-style format where servers circulate with skewers of continuously grilled meat until you flip your table marker from green to red. It’s family-owned and run by Brazilian founders, and it’s the pick when the table wants variety rather than a single cut, since the format typically includes a rotation of picanha, sirloin, lamb, chicken and sausage alongside a full salad bar.
Hours run Monday through Thursday 4:30pm to 9pm, Friday 11:30am to 10pm (with lunch service), Saturday 4pm to 10pm and Sunday noon to 8pm. This is the best option on the list for a group that wants to try a lot of different cuts without everyone ordering separately, and it’s usually a better value per person than an à la carte steakhouse if the table has a healthy appetite.
The salad bar deserves its own mention — it’s a full spread of Brazilian sides, cheeses and vegetables rather than an afterthought, and a lot of regulars work through a full plate of it before the meat service even starts. If anyone in your group doesn’t eat meat, EG Steak’s salad bar alone is more substantial than what most American steakhouses offer a non-meat-eating guest.
The resort option: Trick Rider
If your trip already has you out at the Omni PGA Frisco Resort, its signature restaurant Trick Rider is worth knowing about as a sixth option. It’s a rodeo-themed steakhouse with a crystal horse installation over the bar, serving steaks and seafood with a standout order in the broiled oysters with miso and sambal butter. It’s a good steakhouse rather than a great one on pure food quality compared to the dedicated rooms above, but if you’re already out at the resort for golf or the spa, it saves you the drive back into town. Trick Rider also benefits from complimentary valet if you’re dining there after a spa appointment or a round of golf, which is a small but real perk none of the standalone Frisco steakhouses can offer.
Why Frisco has this many good steakhouses
It’s not an accident. Frisco’s population has roughly doubled since the early 2010s, driven largely by corporate relocations — several major company headquarters have moved into the corridor along the Dallas North Tollway and State Highway 121, bringing exactly the kind of expense-account dining crowd that supports multiple high-end steakhouses in a single suburb. The Star’s development added another cluster of demand on top of that, with visiting Cowboys staff, sponsors and tourists all needing somewhere to eat dinner within walking distance of the practice facility.
The result is a steak scene that’s unusually deep for a city Frisco’s size — you’d expect one or two solid options in a suburb this size, not five distinct styles ranging from a 160-year-old Victorian house to a Brazilian rodizio hall. That’s worth knowing if you’re comparing Frisco’s dining scene to nearby suburbs before booking a hotel.
It also means the competition keeps quality high. Unlike a market with one dominant steakhouse and no real alternative, every restaurant on this list has to hold its own against five other serious options within a fifteen-minute drive. That competitive pressure shows up in service standards as much as in the food — none of these rooms can afford to coast, because a disappointed regular has four or five other places to try next time.
What to expect to pay
Steakhouse pricing in Frisco tracks pretty closely with what you’d pay in Dallas proper. At the fine-dining tier — III Forks, Perry’s, Dee Lincoln Prime — expect a bone-in ribeye or filet to run somewhere around $60 to $85 (2026 — check current menus), before sides, which are almost always ordered separately and run $12 to $18 each. A full dinner for two with a shared appetizer, two steaks, two sides and a bottle of wine realistically lands between $200 and $300 once tax and tip are in.
Randy’s runs a touch below that tier, and EG Steak’s churrascaria format is priced per person rather than per dish — typically somewhere in the $50 to $70 range per adult for the full rodizio experience, which usually works out cheaper than an à la carte dinner if everyone at the table eats a normal amount of meat. Lunch, where available (Perry’s and EG Steak both run Friday lunch service), is consistently the best value across all of these, often 30 to 40 percent below dinner pricing for a similar quality of food.
What to order at each one
| Steakhouse | Signature order |
|---|---|
| III Forks | Bone-in ribeye, lobster bisque starter |
| Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille | Perry’s Famous Pork Chop |
| Dee Lincoln Prime | Ribeye plus a sushi roll to share |
| Randy’s Steakhouse | Hand-cut filet, international wine pairing |
| EG Steak | Picanha, full salad bar |
| Trick Rider | Broiled oysters with miso-sambal butter |
Reservations, dress code and timing
Every steakhouse on this list takes reservations, and at the fine-dining tier you should make one — walk-ins on a Friday or Saturday night at III Forks or Perry’s will mean a wait at the bar, sometimes a long one. OpenTable covers most of these; call directly for the historic private rooms at Randy’s since those book up separately from the main dining room.
Dress code across the board is business casual to smart casual — nobody requires a jacket, but jeans-and-t-shirt at III Forks or Perry’s on a Saturday night will feel underdressed. EG Steak and Dee Lincoln Prime run a little more relaxed given the sushi bar and churrascaria formats respectively. If you’re planning a special-occasion dinner around a stay in Frisco, pair it with a look at our luxury hotels in Frisco TX guide, since several sit within a short drive of these restaurants.
Planning your steak night
Best occasions for each pick
- Business dinner or closing a deal: III Forks, for the private dining rooms and formal service.
- Celebration with a mixed group: Perry’s, for the pork chop and slightly broader menu appeal.
- Date night or a night out at The Star: Dee Lincoln Prime, for the walkable location and sushi-plus-steak flexibility.
- Small private party or an anniversary: Randy’s, for the historic house atmosphere and separate dining rooms.
- Big group that wants variety: EG Steak, for the churrascaria format and per-person pricing.
Pairing dinner with the rest of your trip
If steak is one stop on a bigger Frisco itinerary, it’s worth building the night around location. Dee Lincoln Prime pairs naturally with an evening at The Star District or a pre-dinner drink at one of the cocktail lounges in Frisco TX. Perry’s and III Forks both sit within easy reach of downtown Frisco’s other attractions, so a dinner reservation can anchor a full evening out without much extra driving. Perry’s works well after an afternoon at Stonebriar. And if you’re organizing a bachelorette weekend or a corporate gathering rather than a simple dinner out, our guides to bachelor and bachelorette party ideas and corporate event venues in Frisco TX both cover private-dining-friendly spots in more depth.
When to go
September and October bring the mildest weather for anyone pairing dinner with an evening outdoors at The Star or downtown, though every steakhouse on this list is indoor dining year-round, so the season matters less here than at most Frisco attractions.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best steakhouse in Frisco TX?
There isn’t a single best answer — it depends on the night. III Forks and Perry’s Steakhouse & Grille are the top picks for classic fine dining, Dee Lincoln Prime is the best choice if you want steak and sushi at The Star, and Randy’s Steakhouse is unmatched for historic atmosphere in a preserved 1865 Victorian home.
What is Perry’s Steakhouse famous for?
Perry’s Famous Pork Chop — a seven-finger-tall, dry-cured, roasted pork chop finished with herb-garlic butter. It’s ordered almost as often as the steaks and is the dish most locals mention first when recommending the restaurant.
Is there a Brazilian steakhouse in Frisco?
Yes — EG Steak on State Highway 121 runs the churrascaria (rodizio) format, with servers bringing continuously grilled skewers of meat to your table until you signal you’re done. It’s family-owned by Brazilian founders and offers a full salad bar alongside the meat service.
Do Frisco steakhouses require reservations?
Not strictly, but you should make one for the fine-dining tier — III Forks, Perry’s and Dee Lincoln Prime all get busy on Friday and Saturday nights, and walk-ins commonly face a 30-plus minute wait at the bar. Most accept reservations through OpenTable; Randy’s private dining rooms are best booked by phone.
Timing matters more than most people expect. A 6:30pm reservation on a Saturday at III Forks or Perry’s will feel noticeably busier and louder than the same table at 8:30pm, once the early crowd has cleared out. If you want a quieter conversation, book later; if you want to be in and out before a movie or a show, the early slot works fine and you’ll rarely feel rushed.
What’s the average price for a steak dinner in Frisco?
At the fine-dining steakhouses, expect a bone-in ribeye or filet around $60 to $85 before sides (2026 — check current menus), with a full dinner for two landing roughly $200 to $300 including wine, tax and tip. EG Steak’s churrascaria format runs about $50 to $70 per person and tends to be better value for groups.
Is there a steakhouse near The Star in Frisco?
Yes — Dee Lincoln Prime is located inside The Star itself at 6670 Winning Drive, making it the closest steakhouse to the Dallas Cowboys headquarters district and an easy walk from hotels near The Star.
Are any of these steakhouses good for kids?
Perry’s and EG Steak are the most kid-tolerant of the group — Perry’s has a broader menu that includes items beyond steak, and EG Steak’s rodizio format means picky eaters can graze rather than commit to one dish. III Forks, Dee Lincoln Prime and Randy’s lean more toward an adult, special-occasion crowd, though none of them will turn away a well-behaved family.
Where should I park?
Most of these restaurants offer free surface-lot parking, with the exception of Dee Lincoln Prime at The Star, where you’ll likely use one of the district’s shared garages or valet during busy evenings. III Forks and Perry’s both have dedicated lots. If you’re combining dinner with a night out at The Star District more broadly, plan on a short walk from wherever you park.
Final thoughts
Frisco’s steak scene rewards picking the right room for the occasion rather than chasing a single “best” answer. For a formal night out, III Forks and Perry’s do it properly. For convenience and a menu that pleases a mixed group, Dee Lincoln Prime at The Star is hard to beat. And if you want a dinner nobody else is doing in this city, Randy’s 1865 Victorian house or EG Steak’s Brazilian rodizio are both worth the trip on their own merits, not just as steakhouse alternatives.
Book ahead for a weekend table at any of the fine-dining spots, bring an appetite to EG Steak, and don’t skip Perry’s pork chop just because you came for the ribeye. That’s the one order on this list that surprises almost everyone who tries it.
