  • "Exactly what I wanted. Had a ribeye. Cooked just right. Prices are reasonable too. Service was on the money and paced right. And all of this during SXSW!!"
    Dined on 3/7/2014
  • "We had a really great time. Several times staff came by and congratulated us on our 20th. The waiter did a great job and made us feel at ease. Very nice time."
    Dined on 3/5/2014
  • "We went on our 16th anniversary here and had a great time. They even have a jazz band that plays at 7pm. This place makes what I call affectionately "meat candy". Steaks are great. Sauces and options are delicious. Try the Au-Gratin potatoes. Really tasty!"
    Dined on 2/27/2014
  • "Great food + excellent service = repeat customer., In Austin great food can be found in many places. Sullivan's is up there in the A+ category."
    Dined on 3/2/2014
  • "This was my first time to Sullivans steak House. The Ambiance was very nice, however the staff were a bit confused as to what table or customers to provide service too. I had to flag a waiter down ask for some water that was after 10-12 minutes after being seated. We finally got service and the evening turned out ok."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "My wife and I have been doing date night and special occasions at Sullivans for more than 10 years. This was our first visit since the remodel. Sullivans is no longer a romantic evening getaway. The noise level at our table upstairs against the wall was so loud we could not hear our waitress. We told her we could not hear her and asked her to speak louder. We received "no problem" and the service stayed at that level the rest of the evening. We noticed that 80 percent of the staff was different from our past experiences. The food and drinks were great as always, except this was the second time my wifes lobster tail was tough. We are very disappointed as we will not be returning to Sullivans."

  • "the good was excellent, the service great...it was too noisy. could not carry on much of a conversation"
    Dined on 2/28/2014
  • "This was my first time dining at Sullivans Steakhouse in Austin, and sadly it did not meet my expectations. My boyfriend and I had reservations with another couple (our coworkers) for Valentines Day. This wasn't our first pick, but waiting till two weeks before the day to make reservations left us with few nice options. Two of our crowd had eaten here before and found it fitting. However,the food nor atmosphere met my expectations. The appetizer was okay but not specatacular. Something I felt we could have easily done at home other than the raw oysters. The steak for one at our table was overcooked and this was noted by the server at the time. The ravioli was spicier than expected for another. Would rather eat somewhere else for the price."

  • "the service was excellent, our waitress was very attentive. Best filet mignon Ive had."
    Dined on 2/25/2014
  • "This recently remodeled venue has both a wonderful, subdued ambiance for lunch, permitting conversation between fellow diners, and an exceptional lunch menu, with a broad range of entree' selections as well as some very appealing salads, most notable of which is the Steak Salad."
    Dined on 2/24/2014
  • "I knew the food would be great, but the staff really made the experience poverty the top ... friendly and knowledgeable"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "After an extremely disappointing NYE's dinner (when we made reservations, no one told us the restaurant was being remodeled), we decided to give Sullivan's another chance. We've been coming here for YEARS and really hated to part ways with a place we had always enjoyed so much. I'm glad to say that improvements have been made. The remodeling has made for a more vibrant atmosphere, as there is an open concept joining the bar and restaurant. I will note that I would NOT want to be in the booths that directly face the bar as when it gets crowded it will be unpleasant to be so close to the crowd. After a bad start with the calamari (under-cooked and greasy), everything else were we served was PERFECT."
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "We had a great waitress at the bar and I had 2 very yummy drinks, something blueberry and a raspberry drink. dinner was terrific, RJ was a wonderful waiter, would make a point to ask for him next time. I had the $39. special. and my husband had the cowboy bone in rib eye. Outstanding. The sides we had also where great. Absolutely the best customer service around. I give it a Triple Yum."
    Dined on 2/20/2014
  • "I'm not going to tell you about how great the food was this time, how great the service was, or how the entire experience was overall.........EXACTLY like every other time, everything the entire restaurant does, EVERYTHING was spot on. Love me some Sullivans."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Service was fantastic.Food was sensational. Manager would come by every so often to make sure everything was good. I highly recommend Sullivan's."
    Dined on 2/17/2014
  • "Everything was great. We had to wait quite awhile for our dessert to come out but it was well worth the wait."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "The food was exceptional. Our service was outstanding. My wife and I always think of Sullivan's when we have a special occasion to celebrate."
    Dined on 2/13/2014
  • "We had a wonderful time, because our server was so attentive and friendly! The food was amazing. We plan to make this our Valentine's Day destination every year!!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "We had not been to Sullivan's in some time so this was the first time we have been there since they "renovated". It was extremely disappointing. We asked the bartender about the changes and she skipped no beat in saying they wanted to cater to a "hipper younger crowd". We'll congratulations you have accomplished this as we will not be back. Ever. Too bad as we used to enjoy our evening there. We couldn't hear ourselves talk. Ruth Chris will have our business from here on out."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "The dining experience is the best we have ever had at Sullivan's. The 6oz. steak on the $39 special was the best I had regarding taste and ease of carving. It felt I was cutting butter. The only annoying thing is we hadn't been there since the remodel. It looked really nice but opening up the area with the bar exposed to the main dining area along with the loud music made it very hard to communicate with the person at our table even though we were only about 2.5 feet apart. A glass wall needs to be placed between the bar and main dining to hold the loud noise down. We saw some people asking to move to the farthest part of the restaurant to get away from the noise."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "My wife and I visited Sullivan's for the first time a day after Valentine's Day for a nice romantic dinner. The service was great, the food was exquisite, and the wine list was notable. The only problem we had was that we waited over 30 minutes to get a table even though we had reservations."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "They advertised a $39.95 3 or 4 course meal on the radio, but when we got there it ended up being $99 for 2 people. I guess because it was Valentine's Day, oh well. The $99 special ended up being $200 after drinks, additional appetizer charge, tax, and 20% tip. The service, drinks, food and ambiance were all great. Would definitely go again, but due to the $$$ price it will definitely only be for special occasions."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Remodel lost its old charm, is not Sullivan's anymore. Service slow, food had no taste, bread came late, served desert with a spoon instead of fork. Noise level with band terrible. TVs in Sullivan's makes it just a sports bar. Ya'll probably are driving the real steak lovers to Ruth Chris or Flemmings. Too bad. Been coming to Sullivan's for 20 years."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "We enjoyed the whole dining experience and our server, Kristal was well versed in making sure my meal was Gluten Free due to an allergy. Great food!"
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "My parents drove to Austin from Dallas specifically to celebrate my mother's 75th birthday at your restaurant. We had previously dined with you and she had such a positive experience, she wanted to try you again. Though the restaurant is now opened up and a bit more noisy overall, our experience was again very nice. Our steaks were perfectly cooked, the wait staff were attentive and we enjoyed the lively atmosphere. We'll be back again next chance we get."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Food was great. Service great. A little noisy since they have opened up the bar space but still tolerable."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "Sullivan's is a great! Great service, ambiance, and a place for one heck of a great time! I highly recommend anyone to try this place!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Even though we had a reservation still waited 30 minutes Not recommended if you have time constraints. Had to ask for items more than once."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "I have been to this restaurant many times and the food has always been good and the service is well, ok. This night the service was even less notable, but we got everything we needed. The food this night was passable and not worth the reservation. They were very busy and seemed to have opened a back room to accommodate more tables. I will chalk it up to the fact that it was Valentines and they were very busy."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "I have been to Sullivan's several times over the years and was always pleased with the experience, but this was one of the worst meals I have ever had. We ordered steaks of course, and the first problem was they mixed the steaks up when they served them. I don't expect this type of mistake when you are paying a premium for a nice dining experience. One of the steaks was just a large piece of fat, the other a dried up tasteless hockey puck. The mashed potatoes were gummy and tasteless. The guy refilling tea/eater glasses smelled so horrible with BO, I drank slowly to keep the visits to a minimum. I will never return to Sullivan's. There are too many excellent restaurants in Austin."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "My husband and I went to Sullivan's for Valentine's day/our Anniversary and it was great! Our waitress, Jenny displayed excellent customer service. We were even given a complementary toast of champagne. The food was great also, we have no complaints. The next time we're in Austin Sullivan's is a must!!!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "I always get great food and service at Sullivan's. My wife and I come here for our anniversaries, birthdays and Valentine's. This time it was to celebrate my wife's birthday and Valentine's Day. We had the Valentine's Special menu and thought the selections were great and the $99 price for 4 course dinner for two as a great deal. My only issue with the evening is that the noise level was really loud. I hope it is just a one time instance. We really prefer quieter surrounding for fine dining."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "I took my wife here for Valentines Day & our Anniversary. Food was fabulous service was incredible despite being very busy. Only glitch was we ordered appetizers and waiter forgot them. As it turned out there was so much food that we could not have eaten them anyway! Great experience!!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "The food was very good but the noise level was way to high. Its the first time I've been to sullivans since it was remodeled but I could not have a conversation with the rest of my party. For younger people that would be OK. But for us older crowd I would not go back due to the noise level."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "My husband and I went to this restaurant the day after Valentines day. The room we were seated in was uncomfortably cold. We informed the waitress and eventually the room warmed up. The room was nice and quiet at first and then suddenly loud pop music began playing, but only every now and then. It was disturbing. Others around us seemed to be annoyed as well. We mentioned this to the manager and she said they were having a problem with the wi-fi. Peaceful, romantic piano music or light jazz would have been a much better choice. And wi-fi? Really? The food was so-so when compared with other steak houses like Ruth Chris, and Bob's. Would I go back? Not for dinner anyway. I've heard they have a good happy hour. That I may try."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "We came for our Valentine's Day dinner and overall had an excellent time. The atmosphere was very romantic, we were in the quieter section which was lovely. The food was excellent, we have absolutely no complaints there. The steaks were cooked to perfection, my filet was SO tender. Our only complaint was the service - there was a large group (16 or more) that demanded a lot of our server's attention. They really should have had one server solely serve that group. Our first course wasn't cleared before our steaks arrived and we weren't given steak knives with our meals - had to wait for the server to come around for the "first bite check" to get them. We also waited about 15min or more to get our check. That was a little frustrating!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "We had reservations for Valentine's Day. Sullivan's called to confirm the day before, which was nice. The steaks, sides, and desserts were good. Our server was friendly and courteous, but she was inexperienced. I had to stop another server to get a water refill and a knife. Overall a good experience, though. I'd like to go back for dinner sometime."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Great place but the seating times were too close together so people had to wait a long time."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Everything was great the service,the food, the menu. The only let down was the suggested wine for that night."
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "A special place for special meals! Always great steaks!"
