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.

    I liked where it is nestled into the neighborhood. It includes valet parking which is a plus. The service was immaculate however my wagyu steak was a bit too much marbling and underwhelming for the cost. I’ve had better at other establishments. The sides were good and portioned for family style but again on the pricey side. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the waitstaff were excellent and at a high level of service. Very attentive to a point where as soon as you were finished with a dish they were quick to remove the empty dish and utensils and replace with clean ones.

    This was my Birthday celebration and my husband and I loved all the food, from the oysters, salad to the fish dishes. Very good service, and great ambience.

    If I could give them a 10, I would. Service was faultless and friendly. Food and drinks were great and the restaurant, especially the bar, is beautiful. Can’t recommend it enough.

    Jeffrey’s never disappoints. We always come here for a special occasion and the food, service and ambience cannot be matched. All the staff are very dialed in and their personalities really shine while remaining extremely professional. Could not recommend Jeffrey’s enough! Get the deviled eggs and beef tartar to start :)

    We had a 6 month old, and were traveling from out of town. I could not be more complementary of the staff for how accommodating and attentive they were. Food was spectacular as well. Will dine there again when I return to Austin!

    Dining at Jeffery's is a wonderful experience. The service is amazing, sitting in the bar or the main dining room is always a special occasion.

    Just one of our favorite places to eat. Absolutely wonderful in every regard. It’s an annual or twice annual splurge for us, but we do it without hesitation and never a cause for regret. Cocktails, particularly the martini tray are top-notch. I don’t indulge anymore and was delighted by the ‘phony Negroni’. Every thing on the menu rocks but of course this is the place to get your steak on. I had the Niman Ranch, bone-in, dry-aged Strip. Pretentiously descriptive name? Yes. Delivers on the expectations? Totally. Oh, get the deviled eggs and tell ‘em I sent you.
