   JCarver is my new favorite restaurant in town. This was my 5th time and everything is always on point! Not one complaint ever… I’ve had the 10 oz Filet, the 20 oz bone in filet, the sole, corn brûlée, asparagus, broccolini, gnocchi, crab cake, sweet Chile gulf shrimp and lobster bisque that I can think of and everything has been too notch.

   10/5! Made a reservation while visiting Austin to celebrate my Husbands 40th birthday. We sat at a table which was perfect and more intimate. Service was top notch and attentive without feeling stuffy/pretentious. We got the bone in New York and it was cooked perfectly. All the sides were amazing, you have to get the garlic bread. Cocktails were also amazing. Just overall one of the best dining experiences ever. I will be back the next time I visit Austin.

   J Carver's was delicious again! The bread is always perfection. I'm a huge fan of the 'baked potato' gnocchi. They also probably have the best filet mignon in Austin. Great experiences here.

   The restaurant and servers went way out of their way to make our anniversary dinner exceptional. They had roses ready at our table and spent a lot of time talking to us. The food was amazing and the steak cooked perfectly prepared exactly as we requested. The whole dining experience was 10 out of 10 .

    The server (bartender) was put out the entire time & it was a special occasion meal. He was rarely around. Tuna tartar was flavorless, "italian bread" was greasy garlic bread, the steak was very very uncooked for med rare, the sweet corn side was basic. I was there to spend a lot of money (and did) and go all out and it was mediocre at best.

    Ambiance was great. Service was outstanding. Oysters, steak, drinks, and chocolate cake were all top notch. Best caviar I’ve had. Asparagus and strawberry dessert were ok but not great. We plan on returning with friends to try the ribeye. Will also try different sides and dessert.

    1st time here. The bar is well-designed for dining. James, our bartender, was outstanding. Foie gras was delicious as well prepared as any place I have been. The homegrown tomato salad was very good. The tomahawk steak has a beautiful presentation and of high quality.

    Lovely place for dinner, menu has lots of great options. We started with crab cake and it was delicious…. Also had the Fois Gras which was good but not mind blowing. My husband and niece shared the 40oz Tomahawk and really enjoyed it but at $5 an oz he said he’s had better. Do yourself a favor and order the desert sampler it is so goooood. Service is beyond amazing here.

    Fantastic meal, everything was amazing. My daughter had the Dover sole which was incredible. I had the filet with mushrooms which was very good as were the sides and the dessert. Cocktails and wine were also great. Will definitely be back for our next special occasion.

    I had the most wonderful dinner here with my husband. He made the reservation and let them know it was my birthday, imagine my surprise when our server delivered a little handwritten card to the table! I felt very special. The food was excellent (just needed a pinch of salt and crunch less of pepper), the drinks were excellent, our waiter was energetic and entertaining (perfectly attentive and not hovering)… I can’t say enough about the Hot Bananas Fosters with the candied pecan ice cream. Definitely a romantic and aesthetically pleasing restaurant. There’s a parking lot across the street ($20 for 3 hours) or they offer valet parking ($12). Will be going back the next time we head to Austin!

    We were running a bit behind 2/2 traffic. Tim was very appreciative we called that we’d be tardy. We had a great experience. We had the foie gras, escargot, and oysters on the half shell. So yummy!! We never made it past the starters. Can’t wait to come back.

    I love the team at J Carver, From the minute you meet Kyle in the valet to walking through the doors, you can feel the positive vibe from the entire staff. Chris was awesome. Please request Chris or Gina. They are incredible servers, and you will love their kindness and attention to detail. The food and desert, (Desert is my favorite) :)) Book early because it is hard to get in. Cheers

    We have eaten at Red Ash a lot, the family loves it, and wanted to try here. First visit was OK. We just figured steak wasn't the thing to get, but loved the ambiance, other food items, and bartender was great. Second visit for wife's birthday was a flip from that. The tuna was really, really excellent. Escargot was awesome. This time, my only complaint was with the server, who was the same guy. Given the difference on the two visits it feels like it is probably because of the focus/training. On our last visit, no pressure at all, great service, great job. This time, stone crab claws were featured. I eat them a lot at a number of places, and we got one as a second appetizer. Didn't really think too much about it. Me- Can I get a wine menu? BT- What kind are you looking for? Me- Not sure, can I get a menu to have a look? BT- What kind? Wife- Probably cab, but can we look? BT- I really like the Caymus. Me- Can I get a menu to have a look? Aaand finally the menu is produced. I've had a bit of Caymus, and yep, it's $50 a glass, which isn't what we were after. Bill comes. I should have asked what crab claws cost, and it won't happen again. I eat them enough in various places that I felt I kinda have an idea where things should be. Not here! $55 for one med-large. Birthday girl was so annoyed it screwed up her night. Doesn't mind paying for things, but REALLY HATES feeling gamed. Who doesn't? BT- "Yeah, sorry for the sticker shock, but other places in town freeze them, fish out of season in their own fisheries..." yaddah yadda. I don't think that the ones I had at Joe's recently were frozen. Nor $55 each. The whole thing is too bad because the tuna is probably the best I've ever had, and the place is very cool. Probably not coming back.

    I really enjoyed our wine and that’s about it. The server didn’t make any recommendations or suggestions. We ordered our ribeye medium rare and the steak came out completely rare (but to be fair we were warned). We asked them to cook it a little more because we just weren’t expecting it to be that rare. They took it back no problem but even after they cooked it a bit more it was still too rare for my taste. The sides were fine just super heavy. For the high price of this place I thought the experience overall was just OK and the food was not my favorite.
