Former NFL quarterback Tom Brady was spotted at Dallas steakhouse Al Biernat’s on Saturday. The Fox Sports analyst is in Dallas-Fort Worth calling today’s Dallas Cowboys-Philadelphia Eagles game.
Brady dined in the private room at Al Biernat’s with NFL reporter Erin Andrews, play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt and others.
Brady visited this same restaurant with some of his Fox colleagues in 2024 before the Dallas Cowboys-New Orleans Saints football game at AT&T Stadium in Arlington. It was one of the most popular Dallas Morning News food stories of the year.
According to Al Biernat’s General Manager Brad Fuller, Brady ordered a Hokkaido Snow Beef New York Strip. Guests at Brady’s table ordered a variety of steakhouse menu items, including Japanese Wagyu and chicken Parmesan.

The last time this high-profile group dined at Al Biernat’s, owner Al Biernat posted about the visit on social media, saying Brady “had to sneak out the back of the restaurant because some ladies were going crazy over him being there.”
Over the years, Biernat welcomed high-profile guests such as the World Series winning Texas Rangers, Jennifer Aniston, George W. Bush, Kobe Bryant, chef Thomas Keller, Conan O’Brien and Mark Wahlberg.
After 50 years in restaurants, Biernat died in November 2024 after battling ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease.
“It was an honor to have the Fox Sports team back for the second time with Tom Brady,” said Fuller, Biernat’s nephew who has been involved in managing Al Biernat’s since the restaurant opened in 1998.
Fuller said the TV team might have heard about the Oak Lawn Avenue steakhouse from Troy Aikman and Joe Buck, who “would frequently come in when they were with Fox.”
“To have ‘the G.O.A.T.’ enjoy his experience so much the first time that they chose us as their Dallas meal a second time is truly an honor,” Fuller said.
