About this business
Open since 1975, this Austin establishment has been a mainstay on the fine dining scene ever since.

The imaginative menu will have your mouth watering as you try to decide between a bone-in New York strip steak or Akaushi ribeye and whether or not you want to top it with garlic confit and rosemary butter or béarnaise sauce.

Fast service, hearty meal and nice ambiance is what i look for in a restaurant. Gladly, I found everything here.
Great Food Poor Service – The food was great, from the Crispy Oysters to the salad and the Crab Cakes. Kudos to the chief great menu!!! However the exprience did not go so well. First we waited in our car for over 5 minutes until the valet came to take our car, then we walk in to wait 10 minutes before the host appears. He then explains to us that it will take some time to get our table ready. The sever was very short and seemed like she did not want to explain the menu. We asked for the special of the house and she said "ev... read more
Over rated – We made a special trip to Austin to eat at Jeffrey's because we've been reading so much about it in the Austin and Texas magazines. We ordered one of everything on the bar menu. First came the oysters with 2 sauces. I tried one of each and passed them along to 2 women eating french fries at the bar. They were mediocre at best.Next the salad, overdressed and under seasoned. Then came the cheese plate which had no flavor but was coated in salt, we couldn't even eat it. The steak tartare had no flavor so we asked f... read more
Best Restaurant Experience in Years! – As always, I was greeted warmly as soon as I entered, and taken to our table. Our server was wonderful, non-intrusive, but quick with service. She also provided a description of each dish. We ate from the Small Plates menu and each item was beautifully presented and full of flavor. The star of this evening was the Pickled Shrimp and Fried Green Tomatoes. The shrimp were perfectly cooked with a pickling that was not about acidity but about flavor. If there is any criticism to be offered ... read more
Gourmet Romance – I went to Jeffrey's on a date. Despite how busy the restaurant was, we still felt an intimate atmosphere. Every small plate and entree sounded delicious, but, alas, we didn't have enough room in our stomachs for everything. We ordered with the five-course tasting menu (short ribs, endive salad, scallops, veal, and chocolate temperance), crab cake, steak tartare, oysters octavia, and red snapper. All of the dishes were quite tasty, but my favorites are the red snapper (hands down), endive salad and short rib... read more
AMAZING FOOD! – the new chef they hired is fantastic. the new menu is exciting and delicious. this place used to be so over rated but i am happy to report that jeffreys is back! favs on the menu: new fried oysters, awesome pate and cheese plate, thumbalina or st johns salad, cauliflower soup with poached oysters!, and amazing scallops. and at half price bar apps from 5-7, this is an elegant place to visit for those in the know.
Portions way too small – While I found the atmosphere above average and the food delicious, the portions are tiny and not worth the price. I would be happy to pay above average prices if I felt that the portions were adequate. We were with a group party and some of people were going to stop and pick up a burger on the way home. At $65 price tag per person no one should have left hungry!!
The reputation is the only good thing about this place – My wife and I decided to go to the infamous Jeffery's restuarant for our 5th wedding anniversary because of the longtime fantastic reputation this place has. We drove up, and I kept checking the Navi to make sure we were at the right place because it is NOT in a very nice part of town. We found it and pulled up to the valet, very prompt and courteous. We walked into this hole in the wall looking place hoping for some incredicle decor, well this is what I saw: 12 tables... read more
Great Place for Special Occasions!! – Jeffrey's is a great place to celebrate a special occasion. The atmosphere is intimate without being fussy. We have lived in Austin for almost 10 years and we just went to Jeffrey's to celebrate my husband's birthday. My only regret was that we did not discover this place sooner. This was the best selection we could have made: the wait staff was extremely attentive and the food was even better!! We will certainly be going back soon.
