Everything we had here was amazing! I love that they have a sauce sampler. The ALC steak sauce was my favorite. Ordered the Ribeye rare, and it was cooked absolutely perfectly! Highly recommend 👌

Yall the filet migñon was amazing! I’m not a big steak eater and this was the first time in my life I finished 10 ounce steak because it was so delicious!! The sauces added a fun delight to bites, but the steak definitely didn’t need it. The recommendation of Cabernet paired perfectly with my meal. Overall indulgent, luxurious, and mouth watering meal. Would definitely come back!

Phenomenal place. Jeff really helped make our anniversary one to remember. Cocktails were good. Old fashioned was the right amount of stiff. My wife loved her salad. Her steak, the pork chops, the Brussels, and broccolini were perfect. The only detractors were the glazed carrots were kind of a homogenous mess and the sweet potato fries were lackluster. However just passing on those, the experience was top notch and I highly recommend it. Ask for jeff! Gregarious, polite, knowledgeable, engaging.

Took my Wife to ALC Steaks for the first time and they didn’t disappoint! I had steak, lobster tail, and Brussel sprouts. My wife had steak and potatoes. Clean atmosphere and good service to go along with it. The food was phenomenal to go along with good portion sizes.

Ah, my dear friend, permit me to regale you with the tale of a most delightful dining experience. As fate would have it, I recently had the pleasure of visiting ALC Steakhouse in the vibrant city of Austin. It is truly a place where the old world meets the new, and where the flavors of the finest cuisine are celebrated with an artistic flair. To begin, let me tell you about the Filet King, a dish that could make any carnivore swoon. This exquisitely prepared cut of meat was tender, succulent, and cooked to perfection, just as one would expect from a master of the culinary arts. It was simply a symphony of flavors, a tribute to the bounties of the earth. And then there was the chicken, which was anything but ordinary. Each bite was a testament to the skill of the chef, who transformed a humble bird into a work of art. The aroma alone was enough to transport one to a place of pure bliss, while the taste did nothing less than dance upon the palate. As for the crab cakes, they were a revelation. Each morsel was a delightful blend of the finest seafood, expertly seasoned and enveloped in a delicate, golden crust. It was a treat so divine that even the gods on Mount Olympus would have been envious. But it was the lemon cake that truly stole the show. This ethereal confection was the very embodiment of culinary perfection. Each bite was a tantalizing journey to a world of sweet citrus and velvety smoothness that left even the most discerning of palates in a state of utter bliss. In summary, my dear friend, ALC Steakhouse is a veritable treasure trove of gastronomic delights. The mastery of the culinary arts displayed within its walls is unparalleled, and the dining experience it offers is one that will be etched in your memory for all time. To indulge in a meal at ALC Steakhouse is to savor life itself.

Great experience at Austin Land and Cattle! The meat of the Ribeye was very tender with Argentinian Steak being the best quality steak my wife has ever had. Being a shrimp lover, I would have appreciated 1-2 more shrimps for the cocktail but it was great! Mac and cheese is also a must-have! Would definitely go there again for a dinner date or if friends coming from out of town.

We visited ALC Steakhouse to celebrate an anniversary and were excited to finally try it after hearing the hype. The vibe is very much Texas meets classic steakhouse. It’s quite dark inside where we were sat, and thats coming from a 40year old who doesn't require glasses. You could easily dress up or keep it casual and still feel comfortable. Parking is free, which is always a plus, but the lot is pretty small. One thing we appreciated is that all steaks come with full sides! Service was friendly, but slower than expected. It took about 10-15 minutes before we were greeted at the table, and while we had noted the anniversary in the reservation, it wasn’t acknowledged or brought up. Not a dealbreaker, but something we were hoping for given the occasion. Even throughout the evening it seemed rather slow. Food-wise: • Dinner Rolls – Cute, small with good flavor, though the exterior was a bit tougher than preferred. • Buffalo Lamb Chops – Fun concept and flavor, but the lamb was gamier and tougher than expected. The dipping sauce, however, was excellent. • Filet Mignon – We were told this was their top quality cut. It was good and a fair price for the size, but didn’t wow me. • 16oz Ribeye – Our favorite of the night. Better flavor and texture than the filet. • Seared Zucchini – Loved this. Great taste and sear. • Roasted Broccolini – Super crispy florets — a win. • Asparagus with Chimichurri – Good snap. • Brownie Pie – Served hot and we added ice cream. Basically a delicious chocolate lava cake and a perfect way to end the meal. Overall, it was good, just not mind-blowing or the best steakhouse experience we’ve had, especially given the reputation. That said, we’d come back for the ribeye, veggie sides, and dessert.

Fancy and expansive steak house. I went with cheaper options, but still getting the service. The dishes that I got are very tasty.

We came to enjoy a birthday dinner while in Austin. Food was fine but service was subpar. Our waiter took our plate prior to the meal being finished, drinks were slow and there was very little engagement with the wait staff. Not an establishment to visit again.

Heard a lot of good about ALC. Made reservations for 715 on a Saturday evening. Was able to get in right away when we walked in at 7:10. We were seated and it took A bit before the waiter showed up. He never introduced himself, Just asked if we Wanted to start with drinks. A few minutes later, water showed up at about roughly 10 minutes later our drink showed up.. One thing I noticed right off the bat a lot of very loud people, They also seemed short staffed. Ordered a York strip, medium rare and it came out medium to medium well. Season was OK not great, I also had the brussels sprouts which were not very good but I ate them anyway because I was pretty hungry. I understand it was Weekend before Christmas and a lot of people getting together, but the business should prepare for that. Don’t know if I would go back I’ll give it three stars.

Last week, my partner and I made a reservation at ALC Steaks on North Lamar in Austin. Here’s our experience: Atmosphere: the restaurant gives “fine dining” vibes, but you can tell people come in dressed as they please. So there’s no dress code. When you walk in there’s low lighting which gives it a dark feel. This normally doesn’t bother me, but the fact that there weren’t many windows and little ventilation made me feel like I was in a basement. Speaking of ventilation, you can smell the various foods from everywhere, which wasn’t the most comfortable. Obviously, at a restaurant, you’ll smell food. But the smell just kept lingering as we sat down and we were put off by it a little. Seating: We had made a reservation (not walk-in) and so it was a little disappointing when we were seated at a table with missing cutlery. Service: Brian (or Bryan?) was our server. He was lovely! I think as it got busy near the end of our dinner, it took a while to come back around to us when we wanted the check; however, his service throughout was wonderful. Food: We ordered the Buratta as an appetizer; it wasn’t as lovely as expected to be honest. The cheese was a little too cold and not stringy on the inside. It was good, just would have hoped for a bit more texture and flavour. I ordered the surf and turf, medium-rare steak. The steak was actually rare. Still alright but it was a little cooler than if it would have been cooked medium-rare. The lobster was AMAZING. My partner ordered the filet mignon well done with rice. The rice was delicious, but his steak was medium. Not too big of a deal, but if the kitchen doesn’t serve well-done it would be nice to know beforehand. Drinks: we don’t drink alcohol, so it was a nice touch to see Mocktail options. Overall, this is a nice restaurant. A bit on the pricey end which is why we had high expectations.

Classic solid steakhouse, typical menu of steaks with all the sides available. Warm rolls! My steak was juicy and cooked as per requested. The service was wonderful and they have plenty of last minute reservations available. The space is a bit outdated, but if you don’t care to be in the “scene” then this is a good go to. This is a great spot for low key steak night.

Got surf and turf ($135). Ordered medium but the filet came back super rare. Waited for a while and eventually asked a bus boy to fetch the server. They recooked the steak ok but the lobster was like rubber by the time it came back. Also the lobster was plain/unremarkable. They offered nothing. No discounts, dessert, not even a coffee. With all the great steak places in town, I’ll be skipping this one going forward.
