Josh at Jeffrey's exhibited extensive knowledge of the wine list but also the menu. He was an exceptional server & made our experience very memorable. My mother had easily the best birthday dinner ever and it was all thanks to the exceptional hospitality and attention paid by Josh and the staff at Jeffreys. We cannot wait to return & experience MML hospitality once more! read more

Their 25% off bar menu on Mondays was what drew me in! I realize the deal used to be sweeter at 50% off but it is what it is. This deal is for seats booked for their bar/lounge area and calling in seems to be the only way to book this area. I can see myself returning over and over again for this! My husband and I booked for our anniversary and had superb experience. The lounge, despite being at first visibly cramped and dimly lit, is intimate and cozy once seated. Our waitress brought us complimentary mocktails (per our preference) to celebrate. We ordered the deviled eggs, fried oysters, hamachi, bar steak, wagyu, souffle, dessert. We requested popovers as well, which they did not charge for. Our tab came out to be $140 before tip which I thought was on par for the incredible food and service, attention to detail, and atmosphere. Parking: There's plenty of parking within walking distance in the surrounding neighborhoods. Complimentary (with tip) valet is available as well. I've also had the pleasure of attending their New Year's day brunch BUFFET. For $175, we were treated to all you can eat shucked oysters, giant shrimp, rock crab claws, their famous truffled deviled eggs, prime rib carving station, and lots of other classic goodies. Notable food mentions: Dulche de leche souffle, $16: It ate like a soup, with sparse bits of structure where it was cooked more. Our waitress kindly offered to have another one baked to our liking, but we declined as the flavor was good and the batter was cooked. I wouldn't get this again though. Bar steak, reg $42: Soft and flavorful! One of my favorite steaks ever. Served with pomme puree and fresh greens. Crispy fried oysters, reg price $23: 5 fried oysters on a bed of creamy leeks, dressed with an apple cider sauce. So balanced and tasty. read more

Food: everything was delicious. Overall serving sizes were ample for an upscale restaurant. We both left stuffed!! Service: service was amazing. We came to Jeffrey's to celebrate our anniversary and everyone from the host to our server made a point of congratulating us. They had a card at the table and complimentary champagne. There were 2 servers that were really on top of it and treated us well. Ambiance: it's what you'd expect from a fine restaurant. Tables were spaced so you didn't feel on top of each other. Pretty, fresh flowers arrangements everywhere. read more

OK... Jeffrey's I have to say is the best steakhouse in Austin. I have been in Austin for over three years now, to a lot of different steak houses, but by far Jeffrey takes the cake for the bus steakhouse. It is the cutest little restaurant, such classy vibes inside. The white stuff was absolutely fabulous. The food was delicious. I have no complaints besides the fact that it was our anniversary and that was listed on the reservation and they didn't bring out anything special for it. Otherwise fabulous time. Pros: food, service, atmosphere, best steaks Cons: price, didn't celebrate occasion read more

Absolutely amazing ambience. The food was incredible, but the impeccable service was the real highlight. It was my wife's birthday. They had a Happy Birthday card on the table waiting for us, and a complimentary slice of bday cake. We had filet mignon, mushrooms, and mashed potatoes. All were amazing. Our son had the wagyu burger, which he said was the best burger he's ever had! read more

4.5:5 We had a great dinner here. It was our first visit despite living here for 16 years. I like the multi-room setup rather than the typical large loud open spaces most places nowadays have. The service was really mindful--they checked up on you but weren't intrusive. We had the hamachi carpaciao which was good but not great. The hazelnut was a nice complement but it wasn't anything special. Their filet and pork chop were fantastic and cooked to perfection. We got a variety of sauces (Jeffrey's, bernaise, chimichurri, garlic aioli) but the meat was seasoned well enough to not really need sauces. We had a mango guava jelly and chocolate caramel to end the meal and both of those were fantastic. I'd recommend Jeffrey's for a fancy dinner out! read more

First class service from the moment you arrive. So welcoming and great service throughout the meal. Only had a few menu items but each were incredible. It is expensive so it's only a very special occasion spot (for me) but it exceeded high expectations. read more

The service was insanely good! The food was great too! We got the crab beignets, bottle of wine, steak fries, lobster bisque, and 14 ounce ribeye. Everything was great! I would try the Brussels sprouts instead of the fries next time tho. The ambiance is beautiful but extremely dark lol read more

Had an amazing dinner here for my birthday! The food was excellent and the staff was so very pleasant to interact with. Upon coming in, they had a cute happy birthday card set up for me which is just a nice way to get the night started. We ordered some cocktails. I got the Jeffery's Vodka Fizz, which I remember being bubbly and delicious. It was a very refreshing cocktail. They were also fairly strong, which was appreciated. We drank these while eating the absolutely amazing bread with their butter dip. I could have eaten my weight in these alone. For appetizers, we had the king crab avocado toast which was my favorite! We were told by our waiter that a 17 year old in the back made it and he even waved to us from the kitchen once the waiter knew how amazing we thought his dish was. We had the Ham and Gruyère croquettes too but, I found these to be underwhelming compared to the avocado toast. Dinner was beef short ribs, which were fantastic and they had some interesting looking potatoes with them. They were in a ribbon shape which was new to me. My boyfriend had the scallops which were also really tasty and light. Dessert was the chocolate soufflé which was absolutely divine. It was perfectly cooked, was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside and so chocolatey. The ice cream being served with it added to the dish as well. They gave us little candies (truffles and like a jelly candy) with the bill as pictured below. We did not expect that but, thought it was a really nice touch! Would love to return here again! read more

had an absolutely fabulous time at Jeffrey's to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday! service was incredible and very attentive. I ordered the center cut tenderloin as my entree and I loved the crust on it. my boyfriend said the rack of lamb was delicious. the crab and avocado toast was a great introduction into our meal and very flavorful. I do have to say that the pricing was a little on the higher end for the food I got. while my cut of meat was delicious, I didn't think it was worth the price. overall it was a great experience though! would recommend for a nice date night or celebration occasion read more

Loved everything about this place! The food was amazing. To start, I had the lobster beignets and caesar salad. Both were great along with the bread! For the main course, I had the gulf snapper. It was cooked in a sweet broth - one of my favorite dishes I've had in Austin! The beekeeper drink and Jeffrey's sour was so delightful. The staff were all so accommodating, the best service in town. Could not recommend this place enough! read more

As for me, one of the top steakhouses in Austin. Hands down. This is another house converted. They have street parking but still it's pretty difficult and they have valet parking too. Once we were seated, we were greeted right away and they got our drink orders. We started out with the ham & gruyere croquettes. Really good nice and soft inside but really good croquettes. Then the house bread came and loved it. It was very airy and soft plus the house made butter was so good. I had the ribeye and it was perfectly cook. Very moist. Melt in your mouth. Just loved this cut of beef but was so good. We got shareable side with the Brussel sprouts and broccolini. Both dishes were cooked perfectly. Very fresh. Very tasty. Just loved it. My wife got the petit tenderloin filet which was very tender and cooked really good. My son got the NY Strip and he really enjoyed it too. When both my wife and son enjoy their steak then I know it's good. To end our meal we had the Calvados soufflé which was so good. Cooked really good and we always like to share our dessert So overall, great meal. Great food. Fresh food. Top notch food. The service was really great. Our server was very friendly and very accommodating. They always kept our water glasses filled. The ambiance was very intimate. Loved this place and everything about it. This is my go to steakhouse whenever I'm in Austin. We really enjoyed this place. Enjoy read more

This review is for their happy hour. It was recommended to arrive early in order to get a spot during Happy hour in the bar here. Even with arriving within 15 minutes of the doors opening, we were told that there would be no room for two. The bar area was only half full but the other tables were reserved for later. I assume with the half off on selected appetizers and a discount on drinks, patron would stay for lengthy time. With assuring the hostess that we'd be out in an hour, we were granted two seats. We should have ordered more of the avocado toast! I loved the that they had King crab, spices and creamed avocados that were perfectly balanced. The roasted beet and persimmon salad had a fresh lemon based vinaigrette that raised the bar on salad dressings for me but next time I'll be ordering two of the crab/avocado toast! read more

Jeffrey's is the perfect restaurant for a classy birthday dinner! We went to Jeffrey's as a recommendation for the best steakhouse in Austin. It did not disappoint! We had a reservation for 2. After checkin, we briefly waited for our table to be set up. We took super cute photos at the aesthetic window sill inside - the hostess was nice enough to take our photo and she did such a good job. Once we were seated, we were treated to a hand written 'Happy Birthday Card'. Our waiter was very personable and got to know us as we browsed the menu. Our waiter previously worked at Alinea in Chicago... so you know you're about to have a great experience. Our waiter was knowledgeable on the menu and gave great recommendations on food and a bottle of wine. We ordered the Peach Salad to start, the Shellfish Risotto next, and 6oz / 8oz Filets for dinner with a side of Brussels Sprouts and Cream of Spinach. To start our dining experience we were given bread with a ricotta butter - it was AMAZING! Probably one of the best and most fresh breads I've ever had. The peach salad was a bit underwhelming, but the presentation and flavors were great together. The Shellfish Risotto was good, but I personally wouldn't order it again. If you're a seafood lover, let me know how you liked it? I had my filet cooked to medium and prepared with Jeffrey's signature sauce (kind of like a BBQ sauce). The filet was juicy and delicious, one of the better filets I've had. I'd recommend eating without the sauce pairing. I am a huge Brussels sprouts fan, but unfortunately these were a tad flavorless and disappointing. For dessert we ordered the Opera Cake and the staff used our "28" candles that we brought as well. The cake was light and fluffy, and paired well with the fruit sorbet it came with. On top of that, we got a surprise dessert for our birthday celebration! To top off the night, we received complimentary toffee and strawberry gummies. Overall, I'd rate Jeffrey's food a 4/5, but I cannot rave more about this adorable and professional restaurant. The staff and service make the entire experience wonderful. Next time I'll be sure to wear stretchier pants... I definitely will go again in the future. read more

We were very underwhelmed with the food overall, honestly disappointed. The lobster bisque was cold, the fried oysters were so chewy I had to spit them all out. The caviar service was good though. We could not hear our waiter and he was not very friendly. Overall, very upset with how our experience turned out because we had heard such good things. read more

Considering how far in advance you have to make a reservation, it was strange that we were seated 20+ mins after our reservation time. We were then there for 4+ hours because it was at least 45 mins between courses even though the waiter said we should order it all at the beginning so he can course it out perfectly. It was absurd and the waiter was outside of the restaurant for large portions of time during our meal, just gone. For a steakhouse, the steak was the worst part of the meal. The steaks were so salty that you couldn't taste the meat. As soon as our steaks arrived they interrupted to let us know that a dessert takes 15 mins to make so we needed to order it now. We agreed to order the dessert and then it was an hour after that before it arrived. The waiter came over with a snide "was it worth the wait?" It was not. Save your time and money. We spent $500 before tip and it was one of the more lackluster meals I've had in Austin. read more

This might just be the best steakhouse in Austin. The steak was cooked to perfection, super friendly staff (ask for Rose), excellent wine pairings, and delicious espresso martinis for dessert. Must Orders: Beef Tartare Tartine: The perfect bite of beef tartare with a crunchy pastry exterior. Hamachi Crudo: Another perfect bite of fish, citrus, and Asian pear. Gulf Oysters: Fried just enough to get a crunch but you can still taste the oysters! Definitely coming back here again but note that it is on the pricier end read more

What a classic restaurant with some of the best food we have ever had. The bread given for table is like crack, it's almost a blend of bread and croissant, soft, flaky, served warm with delicious butter. We also got the ham & cheese croquettes which are perfection along with the steaks that are so flavorful. And save room for the chocolate soufflé which is to die for. Drinks also were amazing (old fashions, espresso martini, great wine). The service is just as impressive as the food. My sister looked cold so they brought a blanket to make her comfortable! Super friendly staff that are on top of their game. Music is perfect volume where I can hear people at my table. We just love everything about this place and will keep coming back. read more

Jeffrey's - Chocolate soufflé - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

In June of 2021 I moved to Austin and being a former chef, I was looking for a great place to celebrate my "new beginnings". I couldn't have picked a better place to start over as the ambiance, food, staff, and wine made this my favorite restaurant in Austin, hands down. My date and I enjoyed every aspect and I can't wait to come back. The starter was very interesting - popcorn with yeast. A subtle yet extremely welcomed change to anything I've had since. Also please note, Sunday's they have 1/2 off wine bottles so I highly suggest those who love vino to utilize a good discount. Finally, as I waited for my date, warm beef tallow cooked popovers were served. These things reminded me of England but in an upscale manner. They were tender, flavorful, and all the steam poured out when I broke them open. OUTSTANDING! As a side note I enjoyed the Gramercy Cellars Syrah wine. It was bold, smooth and had notes of raspberry and fresh herbs. Truly memorable. I made the decision to try as many dishes as I could to live like a king, if even for a day. That said the Caesar salad was probably my least favorite meal, not that it was bad but all the other food was exceptional. The salad had crisp lettuce, filets of white anchovy which when I cut it up, really allowed the dressing to open up. Next we tried the truffled deviled eggs. As I recall we had three slices of heavenly black truffles. We picked one piece off to eat by itself but the egg and truffle, well this brought a tear to my eyes. If you've never had truffle, TRY IT. Next we had the Lobster bisque with fava beans and sherried cream. Delectable in every imaginable way. The sherry foam was a fun way to top and luxurious bisque and honestly I think it was the best I've had outside of Charleston SC. That and nice little lumps of lobster were kissed with the soup as the waiter poured it out in front of us. Great presentation! The night keeps getting better as the next course came and we sampled the foie gras. It was seared for a touch of caramelization although the liver itself was very sweet and succulent. The tarte Tatin of roasted pineapple and shallot offset the sweetness with a touch of acidity. Truly an immaculate conception! We asked the sommelier for a recommendation to pair with dinner. We opted for a bottle of the 2012 Chateau Pontet-Canet Pauillac Grand Cru. The wine was rich with a floral bouquet and had smooth tannins with a hint of vanilla. As for dinner I opted for a double dip of foie gras which was laid upon a perfectly cooked duck breast "au poivre". The contrast of sweet liver and meaty, medium rare duck was phenomenal complimented by the lentils, celery root and summer cherries. Honestly, this dish was so well rounded I would get it every I came back, it was that good. My date got the gulf snapper & lump crab en papillote. Now when I served en papillote in restaurants, it was tradition to open the wrapping in front of the guest so the gust of flavors bombards the senses. I asked the server why they decided to open it in the back and they said it was to allow the flavor profiles to aerate. I disagree however it didn't stop the experience from being over the top. The fish was moist and cooked perfectly while the vegetables offer a diverse texture while the basil and lemongrass carrot broth was truly mesmerizing. My date almost ate it all! After this, I opted to order the Royal white caviar. It still makes me smile when I think back to that wonderful evening. The caviar was exquisite in a silky, subtle way. The warm sourdough blini were perfect discs of heaven to lay the eggs of kings on. Traditional sides included minced green & red onions, finely chopped hard-boiled eggs, and crème fraiche. I tried many variations and all were exquisite. For desert we got the chocolate souffle with pecan praline and Stracciatella ice cream. Wowza the souffle was so airy and warm when using a fork to open it up. The pecan praline elevated the chocolate with a nice crunch and saltiness while the ice cream rounded out the experience. In summary, the staff was extremely helpful and there were no questions they couldn't answer all while making us feel like we were the primary couple at the bar. The atmosphere is perfectly lit, light music and plenty of spirit. I can't say enough how impressed I was with my experience other than this is my favorite restaurant in Austin. I was a chef under two chefs that were on Iron Chef and I know quality. Ladies and Gentleman, this facility, the front and back of the house, everyone and everything is exceptional. Give it a try and be prepared to be impressed! read more

Rib eye was perfect. Mashed potatoes were super creamy without being runny. They were probably the richest potatoes I've ever had. If you said the potato to butter ratio was 50/50 I wouldn't argue. Mushrooms were good quality, but not how I like my mushrooms finished. There were no crusted bits, they were more so steamed. The lobster bisque was good. The creme fraiche made the soup a cooler temp than I prefer. They give you one good chunk of lobster, but not worth the price point IMO. If you like popovers or Yorkshire pudding, you'll love their version which includes ricotta and crunchy flavorful topping. Also, they said they were renting these Doe deer antlers. Wish we found out for how much! read more

An Austin staple for a reason- consistently delicious food, solid service and amazing wine list. However, feels like there's some room to make the menu a little more interesting. Would also be great to see grass fed beef on the menu... they recently made a change on their meat and honestly, I don't think it's quite as good. Also, some servers who have been there for a while just seem bored. Not sure how to explain it but just not overly excited to be there which creates a weird experience for the guest. This feels like a newish thing as service prior was spot on. Overall, love Jeffrey's and highly recommend, just feels like with all the competition in Austin there's some continuous opportunities for up leveling and improvement. read more

When I first walked into this restaurant, the ambiance was very quaint. However, I was deeply disturbed by the fact that they sell foie gras here. DISGUSTING! Food was a tad bit over-priced... I will not be coming back. read more

The food here is really good and the service even better. But it's also really really expensive. Some of the best steak I've had and definitely the best risotto. An absolutely gem of a place to go on a fancy date. read more

Round two at Jeffrey's, and the service was impeccable, as always. No popcorn nutritional yeast this time (boo) but they've up their French fry game; very crispy and they actually salted them this time! Our table avoided the cocktail menu entirely and just ordered a few of the old standards, Manhattan's and Martinis and such. This seems like the go-to strategy if you like booze forward drinks. It typically saves a few bucks and gets you a more consistent drink. Jeffrey's once again surprised me with the appetizers. I absolutely loathe mollusks/crustaceans, but damned if I didn't love the crispy gulf oysters. Wow! My wife won dinner with the Peking duck au poivre. My shortrib was good, but just can't compare to a proper steak. Overall, another great experience! read more

This is a review I don't really need to leave, because it's very clearly a great restaurant. The staff alone is so friendly and helpful it makes the experience consistently premium. I never question how much I spend. It's worth it for me at least. Food and drinks also 3 hunna. read more

The ambiance and service here was spectacular. The presentation of the dishes were beautiful and the blend of flavors was so creative. Alas, for as much as you spend here, I would have expected a bit more flavor in the dishes. The red snapper with lump crab has a delicious sauce that incorporated lemongrass but otherwise I was underwhelmed. Perhaps my palette is no refined enough for this establishment but to each their own. I would recommend it either way. read more

You haven't had fine dining until you've been to Jeffrey's. Wow! My boyfriend and I had such an excellent date night here. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, and specify if you want an outdoor seat. I noticed they had a very nice lounge area to the left with a bar, and the right side is more formal dining seats. Our server (we actually kind of had two?) was very attentive and helpful with the menu, she told us that we should order all courses at once so they can be sure to space out the timing of the arrival to be more enjoyable. I honestly felt welcomed here, and not as though they were trying to rush us out to seat the next paycheck. A few treats to start, you get a little golden bowl of truffle popcorn and then warm, airy popover bread with ricotta and honey. We then ordered the deviled eggs, crab avocado toast, fried oysters, and the tortellini. Wow. Everything was divine. The plating was exceptionally cool with the fried oysters. The crab toast was not skimping out either. You really get a lot of crab on it. Oh my gosh and the tortellini was so rich. In between each course, you get new plates and silverware if needed. They even have this little metal stick that sweeps off any crumbs from the previous course. I liked that little factor lol The menu offers some entrée plates and pasta options, and then a big list of meats. With help from our server, we decided to split the bone-in rib eye with the carrots and the brussels sprouts. Once again this whole course was delicious. I liked how they cut the meat into strips so it was easier to share. We couldn't decide on a dessert but luckily the check comes with some rich chocolate truffles and two fruity chewy tarts. Definitely a splurge, but well worth it. Probably my favorite dinner ever in Austin, maybe even in life. 5 Stars all around! read more

There's a reason Jeffrey's appears in rankings for 100 best steakhouses in America. Though its French dishes are just as strong. The lofty price point will restrict a Jeffrey's visit for so many of us to the special occasion category. But any visit will prove just as exceptional. For the ambiance and experience as much as the fare. In my latest visit to Jeffrey's, I arrived early for my dinner reservation and sat in the bar area, enjoying the deviled eggs and the escargot feuillettes. After seating me in one of their beautiful rooms nearby, I proceeded to enjoy their beef tartare and their 12 oz USDA Prime Dean & Peeler NY Strip. The chocolate soufflé to cap it off was so worth it. And Serena was a great server! I'll surely be back, in one of my next visits to Austin. One footnote: I'm an avid fan of very Austinish venues in Austin, but Jeffrey's does not not evoke any particular place. It could easily be in New Orleans, New York, California or Chicago. read more

My husband brought me here on NYE which is also my birthday. They had a prefix menu with items to choose from in several categories. Let me start by saying we didn't have a single bad course or selection! When we selected our drinks they brought a small dish of delicious popcorn to the table. Once we placed our order the fresh out of the oven popovers arrived with house made ricotta and honey. Shortly after we received a delicious amuse bouche. Then our appetizers followed by entrees and dessert. Every single thing was perfection. Perfectly paired flavors. The wait staff was attentive and friendly. The meal was paced perfectly. I couldn't have asked for a better birthday dinner and look forward to returning very soon! (Since this was a special NYE 2019 only menu I'm not reviewing the individual items. I'm not sure it would make sense since they aren't available on the standard menu. And we were told some of the dishes were chosen due to their seasonal selection of ingredients.) read more

Jeffrey's has a beautiful atmosphere. Excellent service. They have the best truffle deviled eggs, cocktails, and steak!

We went in recently for my husband's birthday dinner and were so pumped up going in - and Jeffrey's definitely delivered. We sat in the bar, lounge area and the space is gorgeous, very glamorous high-end ambiance without being pretentious. The service was five stars, reminded me of fine dining in NYC. They didn't miss a beat. Also, great playlist, I was pleasantly surprised. Incredible wine offering, even by the glass. Foodwise, its all worth the price tag. We had the Tarts of Steak Tartare hors d'oeuvres to start, which were absolutely delicious (I could eat a whole platter of these and die happy). We also had the Hamachi Carpaccio and Delicata Squash Tortellini to share first - skip the hamachi, but definitely indulge in the tortellini. For the main, my husband and I shared the 26oz Bone-in Ribeye - which was cooked to perfection - and the Shellfish & Butternut Squash Risotto and Yukon Gold pommes puree to share. Yes, the steak was delicious, but the risotto was the real star. Absolute perfection! Somehow we managed to squeeze in dessert and indulged in the Sticky Toffee Pudding - yum! They also brought a mini sundae with a candle for my husband since it was his birthday, which was a nice touch. read more

Jeffrey's is a very well-managed restaurant with excellent food. The decor is pleasant and welcoming. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to please. All of this comes at a rather frightful price. Two small crab and sesame beignets are $16. I had duck breast for $58. The only other thing on the plate other than the huckleberry-pepper sauce was a smear of celery root. My wife had snapper in papillote. Again, not much there other than the fish for $54. Bottom line? This is a very good restaurant with imaginative food, but it's hard not to feel that the prices are wildly inflated. read more

Jeffrey's is an exceptional fine dining experience. This is one of the best restaurants in Austin. The food, atmosphere, and experience are matched by few establishments in this town. It's hard to speak specifics regarding the menu, because it's all great. The steaks will make you salivate. The lobster bisque will leave you wishing there was enough for another spoonful. The fish selections all memorable. Also worth a mention is Jeffrey's great wine list. There is good reason why reservations are difficult to obtain. read more
