About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines
Romantic

Jeffrey's Restaurant & Bar has been an Austin fine dining institution since 1975. In 2012 the restaurant closed for a major renovation and was reopened by McGuire Moorman Lambert Hospitality. The legendary restaurant, nestled in the Clarksville neighborhood just west of downtown, features a lively bar and three distinct dining rooms. The menus, from executive chef Mark McCain, features dry-aged prime steaks, updated classic fine dining, and locally sourced produce. The award-winning wine list, one of the largest and most diverse in Texas, features highly-sought after vintages from Old and New World producers. Private dining in the Napoleon Room and The Apartment is available for special events. Valet service is offered.

The charming neighborhood location, old world service & multiple private dining options make Jeffrey's a true Austin gem. Jeffrey's was named “Top 10 Best New Restaurants” in the country by Bon Appetit magazine in 2013.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Mark McCain

From the OpenTable editors: Woodfired steaks, caviar service, and martini carts set the stage at this legendary restaurant that’s been an Austin mainstay since 1975. A James Beard semifinalist nod and a spot on the coveted World's 101 Best Steak Restaurants list in 2024 has only reinforced how good this stunner remains decades on. Settle in for a memorable evening in one of the three different dining rooms, each with their own vibe from red leather booths to a taxidermied antelope head.

We celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary at Jeffrey's and it was everything we remembered. We enjoyed champagne and couple of cocktails (great Mexican martini!) and truffle deviled eggs to start; all were great. I had a Caesar salad, which was tasty and good portion (shareable for sure). For our entrées, my wife ordered the black angus tenderloin and I ordered the wagyu ribeye. We eat a fair amount of steak, but I can honestly say my ribeye was one of the tastiest steaks I've ever eaten. The smoky flavor was captured in every bite and the medium rare plus brought the marbling to a perfect level. My wife said her filet was great as well; I didn't have room to sample. We enjoyed the Brussel spouts and whipped potatoes as shared sides. Portions were just right for sharing. For dessert, we had the chocolate soufflé and the strawberry basil pavlova and each was great in it own way....proof was in the empty plates. Our captain (server) was Harold and he was very attentive while not feeling bothersome...a rare feat. The last "cherry on top" was the bill...this wonderful meal was 50% of what I expected to pay and the same as we pay for much less at time. The value coupled with the level of quality moved this to five star review. We are already looking forward to our next visit and highly recommend for anyone looking for a memorable meal.

Porterhouse came out Very Rare, and wasn’t edible. Staff provided a discount and the service was great, but was sad as we were expecting Jeffrey’s to be the best meal of our trip; and it ended up being the least exciting

We’ve been to Jeffrey’s before, and returned to celebrate our anniversary. It’s my favorite restaurant in Austin. It’s the one, perhaps only, restaurant that does everything perfectly, and always exceeds our expectations. Like the valet who opens the door and walks my wife to the door with an umbrella, the quiet, homelike fine dining experience, friendly wait staff who literally wait on us throughout our dinner experience, to the excellent and tasty food. It’s worth every penny and we appreciate their attention to details. It’s a rare dining experience in Austin.
