Long before Frisco became the dining and entertainment destination it is today, Randy’s Steakhouse was serving steaks and welcoming guests on Main Street. Now celebrating 34 years in business, the locally owned restaurant has grown alongside the city while remaining true to what has made it a longtime favorite. Owner and chef Randy Burks remains a familiar face at the restaurant, continuing a tradition of great food and personal hospitality. Through years of tremendous growth and change, Randy’s remains a Frisco staple.
The setting is as much a part of the story as the food. Randy’s Steakhouse is located inside the historic T.J. Campbell house, a Victorian home built in 1869. Originally located along Preston Road, the house was moved to its current Main Street location in the early 1900s as Frisco developed around the railroad. Over its long history, the building has served several purposes before eventually becoming home to Randy’s Steakhouse.
The historic setting gives the restaurant an atmosphere that feels distinctly different from a traditional steakhouse. Its intimate rooms, architectural details and classic charm make Randy’s a longtime destination for anniversaries, birthdays, date nights, business dinners and family celebrations.
Of course, the menu is at the heart of the experience. Randy’s is known for its steaks, including filet mignon, New York strip, ribeye and an impressive 28-ounce bone-in ribeye. For something a little different, the Blackberry Filet adds a distinctive twist to the traditional steakhouse favorite.
There is plenty beyond steak, too. Guests can begin the evening with steakhouse appetizers and fresh salads before choosing from entrées that include seafood such as fire-roasted salmon. Classic sides including macaroni and cheese, steamed broccoli and other steakhouse favorites complete the meal. And saving room for dessert is always a good idea, with selections such as pecan pie and the decadent Chocolate Eruption Cake.
Randy’s also offers an extensive wine selection, along with special wine dinners featuring thoughtfully created multi-course menus. Private dining is available for celebrations, business dinners and holiday gatherings, allowing guests to experience the restaurant’s signature hospitality for occasions both large and small.
Perhaps what has kept Randy’s relevant through decades of growth is something that cannot be found on the menu: personal hospitality. In a city filled with new restaurants and rapidly expanding entertainment districts, Randy’s offers something increasingly rare, a locally owned restaurant with deep roots in the community.
Frisco may look very different than it did when Randy’s first opened, but the restaurant remains a familiar part of the city’s story. Generations of diners have walked through its doors to celebrate milestones, share meals and make memories.
At Randy’s, guests may come for the steak, but the history, hospitality and feeling of home are what continue to make it a true Frisco staple. 7026 Main St, Frisco, TX 75033, RandysSteakhouse.com
