Diner Reviews
  • "While it was too cold and overcast to really appreciate the lake ambience the restaurant gave great vibe. The food was wonderful. One of my friends ordered two dishes just to try them both. We had Sunday brunch and it was really excellent food. The service was good, our waiter was very personable and patient with us when we kept talking and not ordering. A great restaurant, I can't wait to go back and try the dinner menu."

  • "Food was stellar. Service was poor. Our server was rushed and seemed a bit bothered when we asked him to repeat the specials because of the noise level."

  • "Found this to be a "gem" tucked away on small man-made lake, which made for very pretty view during lunch; energetic lunch crowd but I made a reservation and they had our table waiting for us in the full dining room. Nice surprise ! The food did not disappoint, had a wonderful spinach, chicken waldorf salad, lightly dressed ... delicious. Good service too."
    Dined on 2/27/2014
  • "I found the place a bit noisy. In retrospect a table near the window would have been better. We both moved to the corner of the table in order to have a conversation without raising our voices. I also found the restaurant really dark. Almost put on the flashlight from my phone to read the menu. LOL. The food was very good and the waiter attentive. But because of the noise level I have to think about returning."
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "The food was tasty and well portioned. The atmosphere was very calm and romantic. Our waiter was pretentious and cold and condescending. I don't think my husband and I will be back."
    Dined on 2/21/2014
  • "Very good, local restaurant. Nice atmosphere, and not too noisy. Wait staff is always attentive. Menu offers nice variety, though it does seem to have more fish/seafood offerings than beef, pork, or chicken."

  • "We enjoyed everything about it except the rather expensive price."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Sat at booth by kitchen. Very cold at 530p. Loved the rhubarb desert idea but it was way too much crust and really felt tiny for the cost. Loved the Amy's Mexican vanilla it was served with! Server was very knowledgeable of cocktail suggestions which was wonderful."
    Dined on 2/12/2014
  • "Wonderful ambience, great service, and incredible food! Best wood-fire steak in town and their grilled shrimp are well worth the amount of the course!"

  • "There wasn't anything special about the food, my fiancee's food was fatty and some of my food was cold."

  • "Great food! The only thing I had to complain about was that our reservation was at 7:45 and we had to wait for a table for about 10minutes. Other than that the food, service, and atmosphere was fantastic!"

  • "Have seen the sign for many years now, but never went down the road to the restaurant. Friend wanted to go and wow, it was sooooooooooo good. Had a great time and loved the place. It was packed so they must be doing something right! bonus is that parking is easy and avaliable."

  • "My husband and I had a wonderful dinner here. The food & service was very good. I have been here before, but for lunch. This is a special occasion kind of place for us. Would definitely good back."
    Dined on 2/8/2014
  • "I truly enjoyed the ambience of this place. Despite the other tables around you you can get lost in your own little space. You can easily have a conversation without feeling drowned out by others. The lighting invokes romance."
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "Had a reservation for 8 and was seated immediately. There were several large groups in the dining room and this made the noise level pretty high but as the groups cleared out, it was the perfect atmosphere. The food was delicious and the selection was great. I would definitely like to go back again in the spring or summer when we could dine outdoors."
    Dined on 2/3/2014
  • "GREAT dinner, as usual. Food was perfect, ambiance was on key... very relaxed, comfortable."
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "The salad was a joke for $8. A small amount of lettuce, a few cherry tomatoes, a little blue cheese dressing, and a few crumbles of bacon. The main course was good, but very pricey for what it included. The small side dish of squash puree was all smoke and no taste. The wine was $13 a glass for average wine. It was so cold inside that we had to wear our coats while we ate. I don't think we'll be back for dinner."
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "Nice quiet atmosphere on this Super Bowl night contributed to a very delighful experience with my wife. We shared the mixed green salad which was fresh and delicious. The rolls brought to the table before the meal were warm and especially delicious on this trip. We chose the salmon entree as well as one of the daily specials, sea bass, and both were well-prepared, well-presented, and definitely delicious. The vegetable medley and rice with cabbage that accompanied the fish were all delicious. Wait staff were friendly and very attentive. A very wonderful experience from beginning to end. Look forward to next trip on Valentines."

  • "We have been coming here for years. We love the outside tables in the summer and we tend to come more often when the weather allows outside dining. The food is fine but not on the level of some of the much more expensive places. Service varies between awful and excellant and is generally fine. We ask for quiet surroundings and that generally works out, typically because we avoid the busiest times. The Roaring Fork is essentially the same as Landrys and they are less than a mile apart so we tend to go equally to both and have frequent diner cards in both."
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "You can always count on the highest quality food choices at Roaring Fork at reasonable prices. The setting is great as it is tucked away in the trees next to a small lake with a great deck to take it all in. Great for a night out as a couple or take the kids along for an amazing burger. Fish Tacos and Steaks are the best with a side of asparagus. All the sides served in kettles are wonderful -- Street Corn #1, Mac & Cheese #2, even chips and guacamole / queso are a great starter."
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "I took my wife here for her birthday. I included that it was my wife's birthday on the reservation. When our waitress walked up to the table, she wished my wife a happy birthday right away. The food was delicious. I had the pork carnitas and my wife had the bacon wrapped tenderloin. My wife also enjoyed the huckleberry margarita. My wife was given a delicious chocolate torte for her birthday dessert. We will definitely be returning!"

  • "I made the reservation through Open Table via a link on the RF website indicating a special offer (buy one entree get one of equal or less value) on Feb 2. Turns out the time nearest when I could get a reservation was a time OUTSIDE the special offer but no indication of that information...we were told "too bad". - 5 adults and child seated at cold drafty BAR table, then crammed into booth by unconcerned greeter - nice waitress finally gots us to a table in dining room...which was not crowded. - water server poured water all over floor around table. never looked up - manager clueless, never smiled, deer-in-headlights gaze - leftovers mixed up/mislabeled and to wrong persons - Unfortunate > the food is so good and service so bad"
    Dined on 2/2/2014
  • "Great food, nice view, good time! The happy hour is a great deal. The waitstaff was very nice and knowledgeable about the offerings."
    Dined on 1/26/2014
  • "I enjoyed my filet but it took 10 min to get anchovies for my husbands salad and his steak was over cooked. Also the waiter was so busy I felt like we were just forgotten about. I will go again but I will get a different waiter."
    Dined on 1/25/2014
  • "Too much garlic in the caesar salad; cold air in the room (very cold outside)"

  • "Wrong seating, wrong food or items ordered not delivered. Note to the restaurant not responded to. Usually good but Tuesday night was a really bad experience."

  • "food here is always good. Good wine list and bar serves good drinks. It can be very noisy at peak times."
    Dined on 1/15/2014
  • "Our guests had never been - they thought it was a steak place so they wouldn't ever have gone on their own. They LOVED it. Loved the roast chicken (simply and beautifully prepared) and the trout. Very impressed by the atmosphere, which is spacious and airy with views from walls of windows. We have introduced several long-time Austinites to this gem in north Austin - and every one added it to their rotation"
    Dined on 1/13/2014
  • "A disappointing dining experience. Food and service equally mundane, despite the restaurant virtually empty on an early Sunday lunch. Since none of the employees were doing much of anything, one would expect some attentive service and food to be served warm. They really seemed annoyed to be working. Oh well, lots of choices in thus little town!"
    Dined on 4/14/2013
  • "We made two reservations on-line for two groups of four for NYE. When we arrived, they went out of their way to seat us all together. The food and service was top notch. We recommend this place highly."
