Thanks to all for messaging us on the latest dress code controversy at the Del Frisco’s in City Center:
Crazy. Just got denied from a dinner meeting at @Del_Friscos because of my hoodie. Apparently there is a new dress code policy as of last week? Funny thing is @Bakari_Sellers was too denied almost identically last week. Trend? @CityCenterDC

So I have a story. In Del Frisco DC and they asked me to leave for having a hoodie. New policy. Kinda weird.

I’m curious to know where folks draw the line – don’t many high end restaurants have dress codes? Obviously these codes need to be enforced universally. Or with fashion trends the way they are, have dress codes in general become antiquated and/or at the very least fraught? Do you know of other steak houses/restaurants that have dress codes in D.C.?
Ed. Note: We spoke about Masa 14’s dress code controversy here and Heaven & Hell still has a no Timberland Boots policy.
