Del Frisco’s is a fancy Steak House chain. But this location is something special! In the 1800s, the building was one of the most popular destinations on what was once referred to as Hell’s Half Acre. Hell’s Half Acre was an area that contained saloons, brothels and gambling halls, and was rumored to be a favorite destination of Butch Cassidy, The Sundance Kid, Wyatt Earp and Doc Holiday. The building was formerly a bathhouse frequented by cowboys passing through.
Their 10,000-bottle wine cellars are stored within the original brick from the underground tunnels cowboys used to walk their cattle back home from the stockyards.

To get to Scat, you walk down an alley way and into an elevator. Go down below street level and step out the other side of the elevator, through double doors to a dim, red plush wonderland of live jazz and dark corner booths. Almost a step back in time. One of our favorite places. Be sure to make a reservation on the weekends. And try the Brandy Alexander.
