Went for Valentines Day. Im not gonna lie, this place uses lots of butter but the food/butter is great. The daily specials seem to be better choices for mains but the desserts are top notch! Bread Pudding number 1, Carrot Cake 2. Steak was good with mushroom topper. Sides were okay honestly Ive seen better choices on sides other places. I gave it five stars because the Blue cheese salad dressing and bread pudding were amazeballs. Salads are well put together and love the pecans.

We were in town visiting from Florida and stopped at different steakhouse restaurants in the area. However, none felt inviting and there was always a reason to not sit us for service. Except when we walked into Bob’s. The friendliness at the door is what did it for us. The service was excellent and the food was amazing. We will come back to Bob’s on our next visit and skip all the other restaurants from now on. Thank you for the great service and for having such friendly staff.

I’ve always been a big fan of Bob’s. I can always count on it for a great meal. That’s what made tonight’s experience so disappointing. First off, they didn’t have any regular prime ribeyes. So I got a NY Strip and it was seriously bad. Halfway through eating it I flipped it over and they hadn’t seasoned or seared the other side of the steak at all. How that happens at a place like this is a mystery. Worse yet the manager didn’t really seem to care other than saying he would tell chef. That doesn’t do me any good when I just spent $85 for the worst Bob’s meal I’ve ever had. I may have to find a new favorite place in town which makes me sad.

I had my wedding scheduled at Bob’s Rooftop in May but unfortunately had to cancel due to unforeseen circumstances. Even so, working with Jackie, their event coordinator, was an absolute joy—I highly recommend this venue! She went above and beyond, essentially acting as my wedding planner.
Jackie offered to test the champagne tower for me, helped fit tablecloths and chair covers (especially helpful since I’m not local), accepted deliveries on my behalf, and assisted with setting up the band, cake, florals, and more. She was always available, incredibly kind, and genuinely fun to work with.
I felt awful about canceling, and she couldn’t have been more understanding. Bob’s Rooftop offers amazing pricing, top-notch service, and the best staff. And of course, delicious food (this was one of my fave spots in Austin) Huge thanks to Jackie for everything!

Both my kids attend UT so me and the wife were down for our annual trip and like always we take the kids out. We have never been to Bobs. Service was great atmosphere wonderful. Only negative was my son’s steak! it just happened to be a bad piece of meet. When they collected his plate with a steak that only had two bites they asked what was wrong and I said it was too tuff and chewy they offered to cook it more which would not have fixed it. I was really surprised when they just brought us the bill and never came to offer any kind of explanation like Hey we’re sorry about that or anything at all. I know Bob’s has been around for a while. The fact that a manager didn’t come by or anybody was surprising because of that will probably spend our money somewhere else. Disappointing at first time at Bob’s. I sent an email to talk to the manager per your request and received no response

Stopped by Bob’s tonight to pickup a little dessert. I know it sounds crazy, going to a steakhouse to pickup dessert but Bob’s has one of the best carrot cakes in country. The slice that we picked up didn’t disappoint, it was well worth the trip and price.

Be careful with the steaks! Ordered mine medium rare the steak came back rare. It was Valentine’s Day so it was a busy night and the food took a while for it to be served. Thought that it would be okay to eat the steak as-is to avoid sending it back to the kitchen. End up in the bathroom constantly this morning with endless diarrhea (from eating raw steak). Service was friendly but felt overlooked at times. Atmosphere was nice. Maybe will try again on a normal day but somewhat disappointed.

Our server, Rick, was absolutely wonderful. He provided excellent recommendations and was very friendly and easy to talk to. The food presentation was beautifully arranged and tasted great. The best part was the freshly baked bread that came out with a nice pat of rich butter. We will definitely go back the next time we’re in the city!

Just above average experience.
2.5 stars seems about right, 3 is slightly too generous, 2 is too low.
Had booked a few weeks in advance and excited about the meal.
Ordered the prime bone in ribeye or “Cote de boeuf”. I requested medium rare, which I thought was reasonable.
The server proceeded to ask if I wanted it more pink or red. It confused me a little and wasn’t sure if a pantone colour was needed. I was thinking just tell the chef med rare. I wish I did
The steak seemed medium well. A bit dry and tough, seasoning was also lacking. It was ok, but what I was expecting for a $100 steak ($89+tax).
Unmemorable just like the stick of carrot and potatoes.
Leftover score: 5/10
Average again
