Downtown Restaurants

III Forks is easily my favorite steakhouse downtown. There have been at least two occasions where I’ve left “Robert’s” after poor service and quality and went to III Forks where we were welcomed with open arms. Every time I go, the staff is attentive, the drinks are on point, and the food is perfect the first time. I couldn’t recommend it enough.

We were visiting Austin from out of town for a wedding over the weekend. This was my second time at Perry’s location and brought my friends. The meals were amazing. Our waiter Kyle was also excellent and very entertaining! I highly recommend this steakhouse to anyone who’s visiting Texas as they have multiple locations in and around Dallas and Austin.

Delicious, one of Texas’ bests all around. I will dream of that meal until I visit again. Everything from apps to dessert was original and delicious - and the service was world class. Queso dish with mini tortillas was the best I’ve had, ever! The chicken dish was perfectly seasoned with flavors blended so well. Dessert and warm chocolate drink were amazing. It’s warm, cozy, interesting and welcoming. Dining here was like a big hug you don’t want to end! Ramses was a great server. It was so refreshing to hear him so excited about the food and chef — and every team member shared that type of enthusiasm and warmth. Thank you all for a fantastic experience!

Service was excellent and overall food was good. The avocado mousse for dessert tasted too much like banana and not enough cacao.

I rarely take the time to write reviews but this one really deserves it. We hail from San Francisco so we weren't expecting much from an Italian restaurant in Austin. We were blown away. We ordered the snapper and special pasta (chicken filled ravioli.) The snapper was cooked on their plancha and retained it's moistness. The pasta is on the top five list of pastas I have ever had in my life. I think they must have used smoked chicken from their wood burning grill. We weren't in the mood for beef, but wish we were as everything that was coming off that grill looked over the top good. We were fortunate enough to be sat at the kitchen counter (or they accidentally gave away our table for 2 and had to seat us there) so we had a front row seat to the magic that was coming out of the kitchen. This is kind of a nerdy comment, but the expediter gets an A+. They had a very large party upstairs (like 8 family style dishes at a time) and some how he was able to get all the other food out in a timely manner.
