We had traveled to Austin to do some shopping and afterwards we decided to stop for dinner. I told my husband I was in the mood for steak. We googled to see what was close- and bam The Steiner Ranch Steakhouse was the one we selected based on our location. We showed up as we were and immediately realized we probably were underdressed however, they seated us within 5 minutes and the whole night was perfect. From the amazing service by Chase our server and the other staff bringing us drinks and checking on us as well as Manny the manager bringing out the whiskey cart for my husband and special tequila for me and presenting my AMAZING A5 Wagyu 8oz steak with certificate while it was raw to make sure I liked it… the whole night was perfect. There was a pianist playing next to us on a grand piano since we were seated indoors. They did have live music on the patio. My husband had the ribeye special and it was also incredible with jumbo bacon wrapped shrimp. We both had asparagus and he had some incredible loaded potatoes with pork belly. We left there feeling completely spoiled. What a perfect night thank you for such a wonderful surprise of an evening!

My party and I went to Steiner Ranch Steak House for a birthday dinner on Jan 10th, our experience started out amazing with the hostess who made sure that we had a wheel chair accessible table for one of the members of my party. She did not make us feel like we were in anyway inconvenient because of our needs. Which was so kind. I checked 5 mins early for our reservation and we were seated within 10 mins of our arrival. We had J.J. As our server for our dinner party and she was awesome! She was kind, personable, knowledgeable about the menu and took great care of our party! The food was perfect, steaks and prime rib were cooked to perfection as well as the sides. They also left a very sweet birthday card that was signed by many members of the staff. All in all our experience at Steiner Ranch Steak House was amazing and we can’t wait to go again for another special occasion.

I had a girls night at Steiner and Danielle gave us amazing service. We had oysters and the stuffed mushrooms for appetizer and Danielle recommended the tomahawk so we went for it! Everything was delicious and can’t wait to come back again. Thank you!!!! 10/10 PS the views are spectacular.

We had a huge party of 38 tonight. The servers Danielle (so professional and kind!!!) and Anthony were outstanding, I would give 100 stars to them alone! The food was amazing and the steak was cooked to perfection. The crème brûlée was the best I’ve ever had. We’ve ate here plenty of times and each experience we are blown away with the wonderful service and delicious food. This restaurant has got top quality on every level happening. We will be back and can’t wait! Thank you for being above and beyond each and every time.

The hospitality, service and establishment is great. As soon as I walk in Anthony as my omelette custom design the way, I love it . Best tasting omelette I’ve ever had and I’ve traveled the world over in Asia and Europe !!! Anthony’s omelette is exceptional. I recommend Steiner Ranch Steakhouse, to all my friends and family!

Our experience with our group of 15 was excellent! The ambiance, service, and food were nothing short of superb! I will be returning when we visit Austin next time! Everyone enjoyed their meals. I can’t remember if we had appetizers but I know some guests had the porter house steak, and some had the bone in ribeye. The country fried elk was AMAZING!

The meal was fantastic as was our waiter, Luke. He was incredible and made the experience so enjoyable and memorable. I had the filet mignon, mashed potatoes and green beans, as well as the creamed spinach and a wedge salad. We topped it off with the butter cake. It was ALL quite delicious. Thanks, SR Steak house. It was a memorable Valentine's Day dinner.

Steiner Ranch is the BEST hands down. Super unique dining experience. With multiple levels and gorgeous views throughout! David was our server and he was very professional, courteous, and prompt with his service. He is the ONE and only server to request when you make your reservation. You will not regret making the trip here. You’ll come back time and again.

From the moment we walked in, we felt like VIPs. Josh was absolutely outstanding — his food and wine suggestions were thoughtful, perfectly paired, and elevated our entire experience. We chose the Valentine’s Day menu, and every course was beautifully presented, full of flavor, and clearly crafted with care. What truly set the evening apart was the service. The entire staff rolled out the red carpet for us. Four different team members came to our table just to warmly greet us and make sure everything was perfect. That level of attention made us feel genuinely valued, not just like another reservation on a busy holiday night. The staff here strike the perfect balance of warm and professional — attentive without being intrusive, polished yet personable. They created an atmosphere that felt romantic, welcoming, and special from start to finish. This was more than just dinner — it was an experience. They made our Valentine’s Day exceptional, memorable, and absolutely worth celebrating. We’ll definitely be back!

We celebrated our 16th anniversary. We chose to sit inside and were virtually alone. It was very beautiful. The staff were very kind and acknowledged our anniversary. Our server, Josh, was very attentive to our needs and knowledgeable of the menu. Even though we sat inside we still had a beautiful view of the lake. We will definitely be back.

This was our second time in (dined inside the restaurant), last time in June 2025 (patio). Views are incredible, highly recommend to go around sunset. Both nights were such a great experience here! Danielle was our server this go around and made she made the night so special for us! There was a live pianist playing too which made it romantic! We ordered the filet and wagyu short ribs with a side of creamed spinach and lobster mac n cheese. All incredibly delicious and cooked to perfection! Danielle surprised us with a bread pudding at the end - highly recommend!! Thank yall!!

Amanda is the best. So funny, so attentive and just awesome service overall. Thank you for making my anniversary the best. Food, ambiance, service is the best. Thanks for being so funny and so attentive that makes us want to come back asap. Food was amazing and views were nice. But Amanda made it very special.

We were so pleasantly surprised by our experience at Steiner Ranch Steakhouse! We came in for their Sunday brunch (10–3) and honestly didn’t expect it to be that good—but wow. The selection was great, and the chicken piccata was absolutely delicious. Our waiter, Zach, was super friendly and welcoming, and his recommendation for the triple chocolate cake was spot on—it was phenomenal and the perfect way to end the meal. The views of Lake Travis were breathtaking. We must’ve come on the perfect day because even though it was a bit chilly, the heaters on the deck and the cozy campfire made it feel magical. Sitting outside, enjoying great food with those views, was such a vibe. Amazing food, great service, and unbeatable scenery. We’ll definitely be back!

Steiner Ranch Steakhouse delivers a classic Texas steakhouse experience with one of the best views in Austin. My husband raves about the smoked salmon, it’s the best he’s ever had. The prime rib was perfectly cooked and the sides—especially the lobster mac and cheese—were standout additions. Zach provided excellent service and was very attentive. f you’re looking for a memorable brunch spot with great food and an unbeatable Hill Country backdrop, this place is an easy recommendation.

We had such a beautiful night in this place. The view is amazing but even better was Zach T. Service. He was our server tonight and he’s wonderful. Listen to his wine recommendations. Food is delicious.

Went to celebrate a anniversary and the whole experience delivered. Food was brought out on time. Drinks were refilled without request. The view was phenomenal. Would give 10 stars. Can't wait to come back and celebrate our anniversary here!

Courtney Jemaa

We had a beautiful date night at Steiner Ranch Steakhouse. We got seated right away, had amazing service from JJ, followed JJ’s food recommendations and had delicious food. To top it off, the sunset view was spectacular! We would definitely go back for another date night!

Steiner was perfect for our night out. Great food, beautiful view. should of sat outside but its ok because our server Pom made up for it. the Cobia was great. Will return.

Quentin Runion

So I get it. Its a piano lounge on the inside and a soft country bar outside. Got a reservation. We were 5 min early the lovely ladies at the counter said it would be 5 min. You could tell we weren't the "regulars" and probably 7-10 different groups were seated before us. We ended up being seated 50 minutes after our reservation. The ladies would be like you guys are next and a 4 top would come in and be seated before us. Table service was great. Waiter was a young man and we were sitting on the inside. Date was Sept. 25, 2025.

Melissa A Martinez

This place is unbelievably good. We came here on a Friday afternoon for an early dinner and were treating ourselves after we received a gift card. The service was impeccable and the food impressive.

Amazing experience! I went on a Saturday evening to celebrate a birthday and I am beyond impressed with the quality of the food, service, and atmosphere. We were attended with such care and consideration, the hostesses had signed a HBD card for my partner and even the waiter and manager themselves (shoutout to Manuel) came by and wished my partner happy birthday! So kind and considerate. With this in mind the pacing of our dinner was impeccable- I am grateful for William and his expertise in this space as he ensured our dinner didn’t feel rushed as went through the courses. He was an amazing server and was very patient with us as we reviewed the menus and was very helpful when it came to answering clarifying questions regarding the menus. Finally his hospitality was also great! He also got us the banana bread HBD dessert with enough to share which was very kind and thoughtful. To be transparent this place is not cheap and I’m unsure if they run special promotions time to time but ultimately this was an amazing dining experience which I’m grateful for! Regarding the food, here’s my takes: 1) Crab Cakes: You get two and these are truly stuffed with crabs and remind me more of a crab pancake vs cake by how it’s a lot more crab than the “cake”, you get value out of this option but again don’t expect a very spongey texture- my recommendation is to ask for some fresh horseradish (I got this from the oyster appetizer) and add it to the cake to bring a little zest to the plate as I found it to be lacking a bit of a “kick” but still 10/10 2) Raw Oysters: Amazingly fresh, they serve it on a bed of ice which ensures freshness- they also give you 3 different sauces and a mini tobasco sauce to use and lemons as well 10/10 3) Bobby’s House Special: Absolutely fantastic, they ask you to cut the steak when it’s delivered to ensure it’s done to your liking and the shrimp are indeed jumbo, no playing around here- the crab au gratin also had a bunch of crab and delicious (I got asparagus and green beans as the side, this comes with green beans and mashed potatoes usually) 20/10 4) Lobster Mac & Cheese: Not my personal favorite due to how there’s a bit of a smokiness to the Mac and cheese and it appears a penne pasta is used, my personal rating is 6/10 but again the dish itself was amazingly done, just doesn’t match my own preferences

Great venue for a surf and turf entrees. Each dining room offers beautifu views of Lake Travis. Steiner Ranch offers southern hospitality paired with fresh oyster selections along with live music in the piano room. Wonderful spot for dinning with kids or a special date night!

We had an amazing waitress Amanda who knocked it out of the ballpark in so many ways. Thanks for making our special occasion so memorable!!!!

This was our first time at Steiner Ranch Steakhouse. We made reservations for our anniversary in advance. We arrived 10 minutes early, there was several young ladies standing at the check-in counter, we were told us they would sit us shortly. They call us and proceed to sit us at a table right next to servers station that has the frosted wall, the young lady put down our anniversary card as we are being seated. There was one other table occupied right next to us. We could hear all the servers behind the frosted wall talking and dishes clanking, so that was not a good start. As soon as our server came to the table we asked if we could be moved to a different table. He so graciously moved us next to the fireplace and piano. Our waiter was great, my husbands steak was delicious. My pasta was just ok, it had way too much oil. The fried asparagus was really good. We were given a dessert in celebration of our anniversary, that was very nice! After the hiccup in the beginning, everything else was good. The view of Lake Travis and the sunset was beautiful!

We ate here with a group of friends. It was a Tuesday night and the restaurant wasn't busy and we were seated at an outside table right away. Our waitperson, JJ, was on top of everything and very punctual and astute to our needs. I had the chicken fried elk and my wife had the salmon florentine. The elk was very good, with a deep, meaty, rich taste. The portion was quite large. Side dishes were mashed potatoes and green beans. Neither side dish was up to par with the entree. Beans were bland and a bit undercooked and the mashed potatoes might have just as well come from a mix. My wife's salmon was very good. She said the shrimp on top were also very tasty. The cheesy rice as a side was good, but the green beans were bland and under cooked. Our meal was expensive, but very good, however, I'm not too sure that we would repeat the experience.

Steiner Ranch Steakhouse (Austin, TX) — Review I typically avoid leaving negative feedback, but I felt it was important to offer constructive criticism based on my recent visit to Steiner Ranch Steakhouse for an evening graduation celebration. Our group was moderately sized and had a reservation. Ambiance: The restaurant is beautiful both inside and out. Located in the Steiner Ranch neighborhood, it offers stunning sunset and Lake Austin views. The interior is intimate, featuring multiple dining rooms with a mildly formal, rustic Texas steakhouse atmosphere. Outdoor seating is also available. Food: The menu offers a solid variety, including steaks, seafood, and other classic options. While taste is subjective, several members of my multi-ethnic group found the entrées to be fairly moderate, with nothing particularly standing out. The appetizers, however, were more memorable flavor-wise. Desserts were excellent—both the chocolate cake and bread pudding were moist and outstanding. One downside was that despite detailed discussion about steak temperatures, a couple of steaks arrived overcooked. Service: The hostess, bartenders, and management were professional. Our server, William, was knowledgeable but at times came across as sarcastic and disengaged, which impacted the overall experience. Service overall felt below expectations for a fine-dining establishment. Multiple guests had to repeatedly request water refills, despite the restaurant not being consistently busy. Nearby tables were assisted by both a server and a server assistant, while our section appeared under-supported. Given the limited number of tables, more attentive water and table checks would have been appreciated. Overall: Steiner Ranch Steakhouse offers a beautiful setting and strong desserts, but inconsistencies in food execution and service diminished what should have been a memorable celebration. With improved attentiveness and consistency, the experience could better match the restaurant’s reputation.

This place is beautiful, but the food is not fantastic. We really wanted to love this place the veiws were breathtaking. But so many in our table returned their meat it was embarrassing. The drinks were just ok, and the deserts were mid at best. We would not come back unfortunately. Perry's steakhouse is 10 levels better for the price.

I had high expectations for this place considering the location and the reviews. Honestly, this place is just okay at best. The best part about this place is the outside and their live music. I asked for a gimlet style raspberry martini and they brought a very strange concoction out that tasted like cough medicine. I then asked for a French 75 and it was the worst one I’ve ever had in my life. I’m not sure if their bartenders need some sort of additional training but these are rather simple cocktails that should be made easily with good talent at a high end restaurant. Some of the bartenders/staff/hostesses are a bit rude which is interesting in a customer service oriented restaurant. Some of their staff are really nice though. It’s a bit frustrating that customer service changes depending on which staff member you get. It would be nice to have consistency across the board. We ordered an appetizer and asked for something spicy on the side and instead they threw some ridiculously spicy concoction all over the entire plate making it almost inedible. We planned to order entrees but after the appetizer (we didn’t sent it back) we left and headed to a different place nearby with exceptional cocktails and food. I live 5 minutes away from this place so I really hope to give this place a second chance and have a better experience. So far, I’m really not impressed.

Place had great vibes with live music and lake views. The musicans were outstanding, playing a variety of classics and there was plenty of outdoor and patio seating with a cozy, long fire pit. \nA co…
