We visited ALC Steakhouse to celebrate an anniversary and were excited to finally try it after hearing the hype.
The vibe is very much Texas meets classic steakhouse. It’s quite dark inside where we were sat, and thats coming from a 40year old who doesn’t require glasses. You could easily dress up or keep it casual and still feel comfortable. Parking is free, which is always a plus, but the lot is pretty small.
One thing we appreciated is that all steaks come with full sides!
Service was friendly, but slower than expected. It took about 10-15 minutes before we were greeted at the table, and while we had noted the anniversary in the reservation, it wasn’t acknowledged or brought up. Not a dealbreaker, but something we were hoping for given the occasion. Even throughout the evening it seemed rather slow.
Food-wise:
• Dinner Rolls – Cute, small with good flavor, though the exterior was a bit tougher than preferred.
• Buffalo Lamb Chops – Fun concept and flavor, but the lamb was gamier and tougher than expected. The dipping sauce, however, was excellent.
• Filet Mignon – We were told this was their top quality cut. It was good and a fair price for the size, but didn’t wow me.
• 16oz Ribeye – Our favorite of the night. Better flavor and texture than the filet.
• Seared Zucchini – Loved this. Great taste and sear.
• Roasted Broccolini – Super crispy florets — a win.
• Asparagus with Chimichurri – Good snap.
• Brownie Pie – Served hot and we added ice cream. Basically a delicious chocolate lava cake and a perfect way to end the meal.
Overall, it was good, just not mind-blowing or the best steakhouse experience we’ve had, especially given the reputation. That said, we’d come back for the ribeye, veggie sides, and dessert.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Jeff, our server, for his exceptional service. Upon my return, I would be delighted to have him serve me again. He recommended an exquisite wine and dessert for my birthday celebration. The cuisine here is of the highest caliber, with perfectly cooked steaks that were seasoned to perfection. Every dish, from the fried mushrooms to the main course, was flavorful and well-prepared. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and will definitely return.

Definitely a 4 star type restaurant but the extrè came with one side instead of a la carte. I have been to more expensive restaurants with nore flamboyant presentations. My food was excellent. I had the Grilled Pork Chops. They were moist not dry. The Chili glaze was slightly spicy, but paired nicely with the pork. The Basalmic Dijon Brussel Spouts were also very good. Others in my party had Chicken Fried steak, Lobster tail, Surf and Turf, Steaks and Wedge salad. All said they were very good. $$$ we averaged $120 per person including each of us had a drink. Nice subdued atmosphere.

I got the porterhouse, wife got the ribeye. All cooked and seasoned perfectly. Basically we got to try 3 different steaks, and it was incredible. Baked potato was good, cream corn was good but spicy, and we kind of wish the brussel sprouts were cooked a little more, but overall an excellent meal.

Perhaps the best steakhouse in Austin. Seriously. Independent. None of that fake corporate feel of the big steak chain restaurants. And a substantially better steak. We had the grass fed bone in New York and it was spot on perfect.

Everything we had here was amazing! I love that they have a sauce sampler. The ALC steak sauce was my favorite. Ordered the Ribeye rare, and it was cooked absolutely perfectly! Highly recommend

Got surf and turf ($135). Ordered medium but the filet came back super rare. Waited for a while and eventually asked a bus boy to fetch the server. They recooked the steak ok but the lobster was like rubber by the time it came back. Also the lobster was plain/unremarkable. They offered nothing. No discounts, dessert, not even a coffee. With all the great steak places in town, I’ll be skipping this one going forward.

Phenomenal place. Jeff really helped make our anniversary one to remember. Cocktails were good. Old fashioned was the right amount of stiff. My wife loved her salad.
Her steak, the pork chops, the Brussels, and broccolini were perfect. The only detractors were the glazed carrots were kind of a homogenous mess and the sweet potato fries were lackluster.
However just passing on those, the experience was top notch and I highly recommend it.
Ask for jeff! Gregarious, polite, knowledgeable, engaging.
