Every dish we tried was delicious, and it's easily some of the best Ethiopian food I've had. That said, be prepared to take your time. The ordering and food preparation process is very slow, and during our visit the "servers" were literal children. We ended up spending close to two hours there, with most of that time waiting for the food to come out. If you're in a rush, this probably isn't the spot. But if you're willing to slow down and enjoy a relaxed, unhurried meal, the quality of the food makes the wait worthwhile. I'd absolutely come back, just with patience and no tight schedule.

Absolutely incredible from start to finish. I ordered the watermelon fries, the Little Taste with…read morebeef tibs, and selected the chef's choice for my six sides -- which included a fresh salad, chickpeas, yellow lentils, yellow rice, greens, and a veggie medley. I also added the cheesecake sambusa. Everything was outstanding. The watermelon fries were such a refreshing start. The beef tibs were deeply flavorful and tender. Each of the sides had such great flavor profiles! I first tried Ethiopian food about 12 years ago at a place in Portland, Oregon, and I've been wanting it again ever since. When I saw this restaurant open here in Valdosta, I was genuinely excited to finally have it again -- and now I wish I had gone sooner because I've clearly been missing out. Even as a pickup order, the service stood out the staff was personable and inviting. Everything was carefully packed, warm, and clearly made with care. And the cheesecake sambusa? Unreal, the perfect way to finish the meal. I can't wait to go back and make this a regular spot for my family and me.

We agreed it was one of the overall best meals we have had in a long time (and we eat out at many different places often). Try the soul rolls..and the ribs, pork chops...and ALL of it! We will definitely be back!

Austin's Cattle is out in the middle of nowhere... the kind of place where it feels like if this…read morerestaurant closes, the whole town might just pack it in. Thankfully, it worked out really well for us as a pit stop on an I-75 road trip. I got the steak with sweet potato fries, and for $33 it was exactly what I expected... which in this case is a compliment. Here's the best analogy I can give: this steakhouse is the "small town 10" equivalent of a "big city 7." Respectable, enjoyable, absolutely gets the job done... but let's not pretend we're at some white tablecloth steak temple in Chicago or NYC where a waiter named Sebastian explains the emotional journey of your ribeye. For where it is, Austin's Cattle absolutely delivers. Good food, fair prices, and a much better option than whatever sad fast food exit you were considering 20 minutes earlier. If you're passing through town, I'd happily recommend stopping here.
