Possibly one of the best steaks we’ve ever had! Simple, reasonably priced, authentic atmosphere, friendly staff.

Austin doesn’t have any good steakhouse. PERIOD. We found this one online. Supposingly the oldest and the best one. They are open from late afternoon only which is odd. Venue is very outdated but we decided to give it a try. Menu is limited to choice of steak only. The rest potatoe wedges, bread and salad come with it. Garlic dressing was what we enjoyed the most. Place was very small and slow. We had no idea how the business survives with limited menu, short hours and no renovation. It was just OK experience.

The Original Hofbrau has been on W 6th St since 1932, and the decor shows it. The menu is simple and the only choice is what meat you want, but it does allow for a two person operation. You will eat the “love it or leave it” salad will depend on how much you like garlic. Personally, we’d skip the potato wedges and pay extra for the order the onion rings The steaks are reasonably priced when you compare them to a high end steak restaurant. Our tenderloins are cut very thin. The menu says the bread is meant for soppin’. We get it when the meat arrives, because the steak is swimming in a butter sauce.

This. Place. Is. Amazing. We literally loved everything, and was the best steak we have ever had. We have eaten at MANY steakhouses. No frills, just delicious food. My margarita was tasty as well! Not to mention, you are greeted promptly by truly caring staff/owners. We will probably eat here once or twice a month from now on!

Love this steakhouse. It is 110 times better that any other out there. The cook delivers a perfectly cooked steak every time. With every steak you get an awesome olive oil and lemon butter dressing salad, and wedge cut fresh potatoes cooked on the grill. The steaks are so juicy that you will want to sit a slice of bread in the juice an then eat it, YUM. I also like to order onion rings. They have a full bar so get your whiskey there too. I wanted to take more pictures but the food was just so good I wanted to enjoy every bite.

Steak was great. There were 5 tables in the entire place when we visited. The meal is the same – you choose the meat and everything else is automatic. Iceberg lettuce salad with green olives and a garlic and oil dressing. White or wheat loaf bread and crackers, potato wedges. No choices in anything other than the cut of meat. Can’t choose dressing, or side. Steak was cooked perfectly and delicious. Steaks come drenched in a butter and lemon sauce.

The steak was a little stringy and bland. Perfectly cooked though. The star was the ‘love it or leave it salad’ with lashings of fresh garlic.
