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 believe the waiter forgot to put our order in the kitchen. (Derek) We waited over an hour for our entrees to arrive. We were never offered more drinks or provided an explanation of the menu. Diners around us arrived after us and enjoyed a full meal before our entrees ever arrived. Very disappointed in the service for a restaurant with this reputation.

There are not enough stars to give! Everyone at Jeffrey’s went above and beyond to make our wedding anniversary dinner a wonderful experience we will always remember. Special shout-out to our server, Braden, he really took care of us and deserves the highest of praise!

Fantastic experience! Serena was our sommelier for the evening and gave us wonderful recommendations for our anniversary experience. The croquettes were delicious and our ribeye was on point. Definitely a place to go back and try out other dishes and wines.

Arrived to a lovely room for a late dinner… seated promptly. Staff introduced themselves. Wine took a while to arrive…nicely decanted. Lovely first courses with standout tortellini! Entrees arrived.. perfection! All important potatoes were forgotten! Arriving only after we had finished dinner and ordered dessert. Not a great plan at this high price point. Chocolate soufflé needed a little more time in the oven. With so many fine dining choices in Austin J’s will need to shape up a bit!!
