Had such a great time! Fun atmosphere, great live music. The owner is running around serving guests and playing the piano. It was a lot of fun.

Wife and I celebrated one of our early anniversaries at Wink and had a wonderful experience. Somehow we had not been back until our 28th anniversary this year. The entire experience was as good or better than the first time. We both have dietary restrictions (both vegetarian and one glueten sensitivity) and the dishes were absolutly delicious. Service was top-notch as well and we thoroughly enjoyed the evening. We won't wait so long to visit again - highly recommended!

We love this restaurant. The food and service are top notch. Another huge plus for me is that it is possible to actually a conversation. Too many restaurants have bad acoustics and blaring music. We had live music last night and it was lovely.

Bob’s Steak & Chop House – Austin at Barton Creek

Steakhouse

West Austin / Westlake

About the restaurant

At Bob’s you are treated like family. When you arrive at your table, the famous pickles come standard and a fresh, hot loaf of bread is delivered almost immediately for you to enjoy while you order your drinks and your meal.
Known for our filets, Bob’s only serves prime cuts of beef. They have more marbling and flavor than the choice filets most other steak houses serve. Bob’s dinners have always included their iconic, larger than life, glazed carrot and your choice of potato. It’s a tradition and a great value they are proud to offer our guests. One carrot with one prime steak at a time totaling, about three tons of carrots each week. It may seem silly for a world-class steak house to tout its glazed carrot, but once you’ve tried it, you’ll understand.

We consider sleeveless shirts on men, flip flops, boldly logoed athletic attire/gym attire, beach/pool wear too casual. We also ask that ball caps be removed while in the restaurant. Business casual ok.

Reservations are recommended.

The service was excellent and our meals (mostly raw or cool dishes like oysters, tartare, and sliced tuna) came out incredibly fast. Can’t wait to return!
