We came here before the magic show as we had not been in some time. It is very close so it is handy. Our server was friendly and quick and the food was all very good. The cornbread is amazing and the drinks were solid. It is pricey but not so much so that you have to take a loan out. The food is worth it but given it's location and cost we save it for special nights out. I highly recommend them if you are in the area, the have a pretty wide selection of food and drinks and everything we have tried in our 2 visits has been very good. read more

Great food. We got there with a group of 4 during happy hour, no reservation, but bar was open seating. Bar top was nice, felt like we were sitting in the dining room with the great service we received. Wine and cocktails were great. Happy hour prices were reasonable. We all tried a bunch of different apps. All great! Tortilla soup was awesome. Didn't photograph it, but it's poured tableside, tons of flavor and avocado is plentiful. Best tortilla soup I've ever had, tbh. Big ass burger was on happy hour and it was huge. Chile Verde also on happy hour and was also a huge hit. We tried the queso on HH as well, and it was made with the pork from the Chile Verde. Queso was a bit thin, served in the skillet, but got thicker after it cooled after a few minutes. Flavor was great. We ordered the main menu rotisserie chicken that came with a side of cornbread stuffing, it was phenomenal. 10/10. Chicken was juicy and well seasoned. Hubby got the 22oz ribeye. Cooked perfectly, had a great crust. Also delicious and worth the price. Creme brulee dessert was also great! Highly recommend this location. Parking wasn't bad, parked on street nearby. read more

I stayed at the hotel that is connected to this restaurant and this place was highly recommended. The environment was classy and quaint. My husband had dinner, and we each tried the steak. I had the 8 oz filet and it was perfectly cooked medium rare. It was juicy and flavorful. We shared 2 sides, and the green chili macaroni was outstanding. The service was friendly and timely. We liked it so much that we will enjoy our New Year's Eve meal here. read more

Took my daughter here for a birthday dinner. Per reservation we were seated immediately. We had the skillet cornbread for appetizer. It had enough green chile to give it a nice flavor, but steered away from being too spicy. The texture was crisp outside and soft inside. Excellent. She had the filet mignon with bearnaise sauce. We asked for medium rare, they cooked it rare. The bearnaise sauce was somewhat heavy on the vinegar. Missed some on the execution, but it did not ruin the meal nor evening. We shared mashed potatoes, green chile mac n cheese, and asparagus. I had the tortilla soup for entree, as had eaten a hearty lunch earlier. The green chile Mac n cheese was the best side. Outstanding. Mashed were standard fare. The asparagus seemed to be served plain. We helped it out with salt & pepper, made it fine. The presentation on the tortilla soup was fantastic. The main plate was a tower of rotisserie chicken encased by avocado and surrounding fried tortilla strips. The waiter separately had a dressing cup filled with the soup broth. They placed the chicken/avocado mound plate in front of you, then poured the broth into the 'moat' area between the mound and the edge of the soup plate. Bites incorporating all ingredients were excellent. We had huckleberry cheesecake for dessert. Served on a plate with 'Happy Birthday' written in chocolate, and atop a raspberry drizzle underneath. The texture of the cheesecake was literally perfect - and one cannot go wrong, ever, with huckleberry anything! Delectable. The lighting inside was perfect. Muted lights were bright enough, making it easy to see, yet dark enough to have a relaxed pleasantness to the atmosphere. This was a 5-star experience. Our server was very pleasant, and service was on point throughout. Definitely recommend for a nice dinner or special occasion. read more

This was my first time here. We dined during their Fourth of July buy-one-get-one-free special. We were able to sit in the bar area and take the opportunity to explore their Happy Hour Menu. The Happy Hour Menu is a tad limited; however, we made the best of it. I had their Classic Vodka Martini. My dining partner initially ordered the Little Larry; however, the freeze machine was not up to full speed, so she opted for the RF Margarita with Mango. My martini was what I expected. Nothing fancy but strong on the vodka side. Her margarita was not great, leaving a noticeable aftertaste. Our server brought some simple syrup which helped. Eventually, she did get the Little Larry though. For our starter we had cornbread which was very appealing to the palate. It was perfect portion wise for the two of us. Alas, the main course. She opted for the 22oz Cowboy Cut Ribeye, medium rare. I selected the 16oz New York Strip, medium rare as well. Both were scrumptious and satiated our healthy appetites. I will say, mine was a tad more pink than I wished, yet fulfilling as well. The ambiance was like being on a movie set made to appear from the 20's with a touch of modernity that added additional flair. Our server, Caitlin, I think I spelled it right, was great and very accommodating to my dinner partner regarding her cocktail. Very kind. My first impression of Roaring Fork was good. I liked how you do not have to sit at a table to enjoy the BOGO, which afforded us the opportunity to partake in their Happy Hour. My suggestion would be to add a few more cocktails on the HH menu. If you are in the mood for a nice dinner in a throwback/modern setting with friendly and accommodating staff, go try the Roaring Fork DT. I feel you won't be disappointed . read more

Visited Roaring Fork for their Memorial Day buy one get one free special. It was a great deal because you can sit in the bar area and also take advantage of the happy hour specials. We started off with the Small Larry frozen margarita topped with grand mariner and Frozen RF Margarita with mango. For the starter, we split my favorite salad, the spinach Waldorf salad made with spinach, mixed greens, avocado, grapes, hardboiled eggs, white cheddar, dates, candied walnuts, apples and sweet onion dressing. For the entree, I had the seasonal fish which was the halibut with a burre blanc sauce. For the $60 price point the fish was not extraordinary and there was a miscommunication that the fish would be prepared with a crust but the fish I received just had the sauce and would have preferred the crust as described. Also ordered the bone-in cowboy cut ribeye all natural black angus steaks specially aged by fred linz in chicago hand cut in house served with chipotle demi, chimichuri, and shallot butter. My steak was missing the chimichurri sauce but was prepared medium rare to perfection and the meat just melted in your mouth it was so tender. We had the seasonal dessert which was a peach cobbler with blackberry ice-cream. Roaring Fork has a great reward program and you can earn points for discounts to your bill. There were a few issues with our dining experience including the miscommunication with the fish preparation and missing chimichuri sauce on the steak, but overall an enjoyable dining experience. read more

I was in Austin for our Board of Directors meeting and the head of our group decided on Roaring Fork for our Board dinner. Being from Los Angeles, I was hoping for Texas barbecue so I was a little dubious about going to a restaurant that did not have barbecue on the menu. Since steak is the next best thing and I was quite hungry, I was prepared to order the Tomahawk with the idea that my colleagues at the table might help me with it. When there were no takers, I ordered the next steak down in size,the 16 oz. New York strip. I admit I had some reservations about ordering it since New York strip is a difficult cut to cook to perfection. When the server brought my strip and two fillets for my colleagues, the first thing she did was ask us each to do was cut into it to show her it was cooked the way we ordered it, I must admit I never had service like that and I was impressed! Then I took my first bite and OMG, it was the best steak I have ever eaten and I have been to the finest steak houses in the country. The aging was precise and it was cooked to perfection. For a normally tough cut of beef, they knew precisely how long to cook it and it was literally near- "fork" tender (no pun intended). When in Austin again, this will be my first stop. Great job guys!!! read more

Always wanted to try this restaurant. Finally came here with family visiting from out of town. Was very pleased with the quality of food and the service. The Atmosphere is chic and cozy. Makes for a great outing with family or friends, date night, or business events. They have indoors only. The waitress was lovely and very personable and professional. Food is excellent.

Roaring Form was sooo good. The service was great. I started with the Queso Puerco. It had so much flavor. Then kind of odd. I had the BLT salad. The most bacon I have ever had on a wedge salad. I then ordered for my entire the Green Chili stew with tortillas. It was awesome! The tortillas complimented the meal so well. Roaring Fork will be some place I recommend to my friends when they visit Austin. So good read more

The Roaring Fork is an upper-scale business friendly restaurant not only for your high rollers but a great place for a romantic night out. It's also a great place where can enjoy a nice dinner before a show at the Paramount Theatre. You can valet your vehicle there at the Stephen F Austin Royal Sonesta Hotel. I have dined here before but usually at the bar which has a atmosphere. But this time seated in the dining room section. It was not very crowded where seemed like everyone wants to hang out in the bar section. It was peaceful and quiet with great personalized service. The dinner menu had a nice selection of options and decided to order the Rotisserie Chicken. The chicken smelled and looked delicious and was very presentable. It has great color and texture sitting on top of cornbread stuffing, brussels sprouts and, and lemon garlic jus as described on the menu. It had great flavor and succulent not including the cornbread stuffing. It was really good. We definitely had a memorable experience. read more

Good food and service with a few small fixes. I was here for a business dinner, it's definitely to that caliber which is great. Got the filet mignon, mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese, asparagus, and cheesecake. My filet was high quality meat and a perfect cook, but like the mashed potatoes and asparagus, it could use some more flavor/seasoning. There also was no salt and pepper at the table to add onto the dishes. Mashed potatoes were nice and buttery, but not very creamy. It was more chunky and at a nice place like this I expect it to be more smooth. The asparagus was not great, it didn't really taste like it was seasoned at all. The cheesecake was fine, but nothing special. It honestly tasted like something you'd get from the grocery store. The wait staff was great though - quick and assuming of your needs before you have to ask which is the best service out there. I probably wouldn't go back, but not a terrible spot. read more

Always so good. Get the filet, mashed, and asparagus. They always check the steak when serving it to ensure the cook temp is desirable. Happy to put it back on the grill for a minute if needed. The restaurant is always busy and it's a very Texan vibe, even though CO maps are hung in the dining room. Lauren is the BEST and knows what's up with butter for the amazing cornbread. read more

Had a fantastic yet simple dinner at Roaring Fork. The food was excellent, ambiance was upscale, and servers were friendly 8 ounce Black Angus Steak Filet - The sides of the filet were a little overcooked however the center was absolutely perfect Truffle Fries - A great pairing with the steak. The fries were steak fry style and had a strong truffle flavor which I enjoyed greatly. It also comes with truffle aioli and steak sauce that you could try with the steak or anything else you order. I opted for this instead of ordering accompaniments and don't regret a thing Overall had a great experience and would come back read more

Roaring Fork - Buttered Rainbow Trout with green beans - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

On a random whim, my friend and I had the chance to go see a comedy show at Paramount Theatre and we were wanting to grab a bite before the show. Since we were running a bit late we felt it was best to go somewhere that was near the theatre. Roaring Fork fit the bill and we decided to go check it out. It was my first time coming here so I wasn't sure what all to expect. You can definitely get the vibes of it being a signature steakhouse but it was super warm and inviting. The fire pit near the front entrance was a very nice touch. You have to enter the restaurant through the hotel as their street entrance is closed, but I feel it was due to safety reasons. We were able to be put at a table in less than three minutes which made it all the easier to eat on time. The menu has a little bit of everything but the main elements that I got from the menu was steakhouse, New Mexican cuisine, and standard dishes including salads and burgers. Our appetizers included their cornbread and the "lamb pops" with fondue which were both pretty tasty. Just be mindful the bread normally paired with the fondue has pecans in the crostini. So if you're allergice please be aware of that. I had their burger which was very nicely cooked and was super refreshing. The burger patty didn't soak the bread which is how you know it was constructed well. Don't worry about the bacon as it came out super crispy. Wasn't' that big of a fan of their truffle fries so I probably will just keep their standard fries next time. My drink of choice was a signature mocktail/zero-proof cocktail was very light and refreshing. I feel like their signature drinks are all well done. read more

We were so excited to go to this restaurant while in Austin for a conference but deeply disappointed. Ambiance and service were excellent but food was just so-so. both my husband's filet and my ribeye, ordered medium rare, were over cooked and tough. The tortilla soup and Caesar salad were okay. Same is true for the guacamole, mushrooms and asparagus. The shrimp cocktail was coated in the sauce. The best sides were the skillet cornbread and Mexican street corn. We were guests of a colleague so we didn't complain but if we were there on our own we would have returned our main courses at least. read more

The food was excellent overall! I really enjoyed the appetizer, Chile con queso; it was delicious and had a nice spicy kick to it--not too overwhelming, but definitely flavorful. My burger was also good. However, the service initially left a lot to be desired. I noticed that many people left when the hostess mentioned making a reservation or waiting at the bar. While I waited for my group, I stepped outside and made a reservation via Yelp, which was helpful. The first hostess I encountered was just okay, but the second hostess or manager was very friendly and took excellent care of us right away. Our waiter, Gabriel, was fantastic--very patient and had a great vibe, which added to the experience. The cleanliness of the restaurant was impressive, and I loved the ambiance.
