Review Bob's Steak & Chop House - Austin Downtown - Austin

Troy Michalik
This year,  we decided to do something a little nontraditional for Thanksgiving and go out for dinner. It was our daughter's recommendation to visit Bob's, and I am very happy and proud to report that we could not have chosen a better place to celebrate the holiday. We actually arrived about 20 minutes early for our reservation, but were shown right to our table.  Although I am sure this isn't the case during a non-holiday weekend during peak hours. Upon first walking in, the dining room seemed extremely dark, but it shouldn't be much of a surprise as it was mid-afternoon when we arrived. However, shortly after being seated, the lighting seemed very natural. Our waiter was warm, friendly and very attentive.  He offered honest, on point answers to every question asked, and was eager to make a recommendation when asked.  He never seemed overly rushed, and took the time to joke and cajole. The menu is an efficient single page, unlike some establishments that have pages and pages of things, trying to have a full menu of steaks,  a whole menu of seafood, menu of pasta, chicken, and Mexican. Bob's menu is simple and complete with a great selection of signature steaks, several appetizer choices, and a few seafood dishes to balance things out. Tuna tartar and fried lobster were chosen as appetizers, and when they arrived, I knew that we were in for something special. The tuna was soft and mild with an extremely fresh taste.  The fried lobster was light and crispy and perfectly breaded, and was served a mild buttery sauce on the side. The wait for our entrees was not too long and everything delivered was finely plated. Waygu medallions with seared scallops,  blackened redfish with risotto, rack of lamb, and a 45-day dry aged steak were our entrees and I simply do not have adequate works to describe the joy experienced in every single bite. Side dished seem to be an afterthought at many places, but not here.nd whatever you do, you simply must have their signature carrot, Moving on to dessert, carrot cake, pumpkin cheesecake, and creme brulee were wonderfully prepared, but I must say everyone at the table was a bit jealous of my bread pudding. When you are looking for your next special evening out, please give Bob's your consideration.  Everything we encountered was top notch and I am confident you will find it so too

We sat at the bar this time and everyone behind the bar was super friendly, laughing, happy, it made our experience so much better than all the other 100 times we’ve been to a Bob’s. I don’t think I’ll sit regular ever again. From the lead bartender (appreciate the shots, kept us going), to the tall one, the not so tall one..can you tell I didn’t get their names? All of them were super friendly and we could tell they were having fun and providing excellent service. Food amazing as usual, but this time it was special because we got a show with the meal, they are a machine back there!! Loved it, can’t wait to come back!!

My first time visiting here and the food was really good. Excellent service to say the least. I had the shrimp scampi meal and it was seasoned to perfection, the shrimp cocktail was really good and fresh. They have THE BEST bread I’ve ever had at a steakhouse. I’ll definitely be returning here on my next visit to ATX.

Been to a few steak houses around Austin this has been the one so far. The bacon wrapped shrimp and the carrot cake stood out the most. The bone in rib eye was great and cook like I wanted. The naked potato and the Mac n cheese were solid. 5/5 would be back. Also the drinks strong as hell!

Wonderful atmosphere and services was great. This is a perfect place to celebrate bdays or anniversary. I ordered the Paloma muddled in jalapeño. I absolutely love the veggie pasta and Brussels sprouts. Will try to remake the cream of corn brûlée!

Very clean and staff was very nice. Lost a 5 star rating cause our appetizer was brought to us very burnt. Pics Included. Everything else was perfection. The bar had great cocktails,hats off to ya'll. ADA wheelchair ♿ accessible with an elevator. I would recommend everyone who loves steak to try this out.

Surprisingly great desserts: Peanut Butter and Chocolate Brownie Sundae--"off the chain" according to my husband. 2nd fave is bread pudding. Carrot cake was okay--icing was delish. We ONLY got desserts

Awesome staff very personable. The food is just as good. My steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. I was hesitant about the carrot but I really enjoyed it. Great job on the carrot cake too! I would definitely recommend.

My sister and I are taking our girls to Miami for a little vacay. So to make a short story long, instead of flying out of San Antonio, we saved a few bucks and are flying out of Austin. Hungry and wanting a delicious steak, my sister suggested Bob's Steakhouse. With no reservation, we took a chance and walked to Bob's from our room at the JW Marriott. We got lucky, there was a table out on the patio and the temperature was perfect. We ordered a strawberry daiquiri, a strawberry mojito and two lemonades. We ordered some fresh bread with butter that held us over until our meal came out. A 9oz prime filet mignon, medium well with a baked potato, carrots, and a shared Mac & cheese and spinach w/mushroom. All I can say is if heaven had a taste this is what it would taste like!!

Loved it. Great birthday experience! Sadly no more pickles, covid killed that apparently..my husband took me for my birthday to try the fermented pickles and awesome steaks! I hope they bring that back soon. Service and food was awesome though!

Wow, that Prime “Cote De Boeuf” Bone in Ribeye was amazing!! 🔥😋 My buddies who I was with loved their T-Bone and New York Strip Steak. I went here for a bachelor party steak dinner. The service was great! The manager greeted us since heard we were there for a special bachelor party dinner. Everyone loved their steaks! I had the skillet fried potatoes with peppercorn gravy which was tasty. My buddy had the Mac and cheese which was awesome! That was the favorite side dish of the meal for the group. It had truffle in it. The old fashion cocktails were delicious! The crab cake was good but very small and expensive. We had the lobster appetizer which was deep fried lobster bites with a great dipping sauce. It was delicious! By far the best appetizer! The pickles were delicious too! They were very fresh!
