You haven't experienced the best of Austin until you've been to ALC Steaks at 12th and Lamar. For truly remarkable steaks served with a generous helping of Austin attitude, visit the Capitol city's only independent, family owned steakhouse. Serving sizzling, hand-cut, aged beef and great friends the way Austinites have loved it since 1993.

    Our steaks were fantastic as well as the baked potatoes but all of our other sides came out like warm at best. A little unfortunate. The taste was good… just almost cold.

    My server seemed very nice, maybe because I was dining alone, but not very attentive . Food was good and the drinks were nice. Would have been nice to have felt more comfortable and welcome … I definitely would recommend ALC

    Austin Land and Cattle never disappoints. The fried oysters with a green goddess dressing was awesome. I had the filet with the jalapeno horseradish sauce and brussel sprouts. Everything was amazing in a nice romantic setting.

    We have never had a bad dining experience at ALC and NYE did not disappoint. We brought friends from out of town to ALC and they said it was the best steak they’ve ever eaten.

    Steaks were too thin. Not what I expect when ordering a filet. We’ve never been served steaks like that at ALC. Very disappointed.
