    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.

    I love III Forks. For anyone who wants a very elegant dining experience with impeccable food and outstanding service in a sophisticated but understated environment, this is the place! Steaks are very high quality and cooked to perfection. Seafood options are delicious. Salads, sides, and appetizers go well with the selection of mains. You truly can't go wrong here!

    The food is always amazing. i had the surf-n-turf special with brussels sprouts on the side. My date had the halibut special. Both were perfection. We sat at the bar so we could watch football. Javier gave us impeccable service and drinks. III Forks remains at the top of my favorites list. 👍🏽

    What a truly great restaurants to celebrate any occasion.; in our case, it was our anniversary. The food , service in ambience was excellent. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Austin and I eat most of the best ones around town. Can’t wait to go back and check out the rest of the menu. Austin, is better for having 3 Forks! A true classic!

    This place is usually very good but they do have an off night, we sat at the bar area and our Server seemed very distracted with the table next to us that we felt ignored at one point. He was also sweating a lot. My wife order the Hal-bit Special which was supposed to be a single large piece of fish ( We know this as we were in a few weeks back and a friend ordered it. It came out in 2 pieces 1 large and 1 small well you guessed it the it was cold. I ordered the chicken of which I received a response of "YOU WANT CHICKEN" I know this is a steak house but I had steak for lunch and was curious since so many things they do is amazing. Chicken came out over cooked and dry. If I had to guess I think both our dishes died at the pass as our waiter cared more about the 3 blonds at the next table then us. So $70 for cold fish and 32 for dry chicken. This place usually kills it and the steaks and everything is amazing but again they were slammed and I think I understand why our server works in the bar area. We will be back and hopefully the next review is a great one.
