Reviews for Lonesome Dove Austin in Austin, TX

This Resturant has a great atmosphere. The menu is very interesting . I chose the lamb which was a little over cooked but had a... great taste. As a side the carrots are amazing. The server seemed a little overwhelmed but he was really nice. Read more

Super fun! Unique and flavorful. Starting with the Fettine Trio is a good way to go, but I especially liked the Black Buck and... Pork Belly. Elk-Foie Gras Slider was great. Less impressed by the Deviled Blue Crab (not bad just not as amazing as most otherthings). The real fun comes with the smoked cocktails which were tasty and had amazing presentation. Read more

An amazing dining experience and probably one of the best steaks I have ever had. Open and airy inside with an attentive and... friendly service. Choose from first, second and main course. Recommend the rattle snake sausage and the bowl of texas red(which is chilli without the beans). Took the signature steak with stuffed garlic and was cooked to perfection. On the pricierside dollar wise but well worth it. Read more

The food was divine, and overall Lonesome Dove was a pleasant surprise. We had a late reservation Saturday night during Memorial... Day weekend, so surprisingly slow. The ambiance is warm and comfortable, with classic country music playing softly in thebackground and an authentic Texas interior decor, with dark colors and rustic touches. The service was good, staff wasknowledgeable and attentive. Now to the food, we started with the blue corn lobster hushpuppies and butter lettuce salad withred chili buttermilk vinaigrette, both very good! For entrees we had the signature dish which is the roasted garlic stuffed beeftenderloin and rack of lamb, both were on point! My favorite was the LD Mac & Cheese with fried artichoke hearts, unbelievable,mind blown! The burnt carrot side with Texas honey, Meyer lemon and goat cheese was also really good. I heard the chef Tim Lovehad previously won Iron Chef, no surprise. Tasty spot, definitely recommend, check these guys out! Read more

OMG!!! Everything that touched the table was EXCELLENT!! First course was elk sliders with blueberry jam, fabulous! And a... special jalapeno oysters. Then skipped the second course and got the roasted garlic stuffed beef tenderloin, outstanding!Ordered a jalapeno cucumber margarita and it was way too good. I cannot stop recommending this restaurant enough. You are goingto pay but it is soooo worth it!! Read more

What a delight! We were the last table sat of the night and were treated like gold. Jeremiah was the BEST! He was hospitable,... knowledgeable and spot on. The timing. The amount of attention .. What a pro! Of all the delicious things.. ( The rabbitravioli was BONKERS!) The sliders were amazing, but the Brussels and the carrots stole the show. Bravo! Read more

Second visit to LD-Austin confirms that their hallmark focus on high quality and consistency. Entertaining two couples who had... never been, the entire evening was perfect. George was attentive and uncompromisingly professional, even with my northern humor.We ordered most of the appetizers for all to share, a different entree for all to sample - all of the dishes were outstanding.

A great atmosphere. I came here excited since Ive been before and love it. Sat at the bar for dinner. The deviled crab app was... pretty mediocre. Alongside that I had the elk sliders, which were bomb but suggest ordering some of that blueberry sauce on theside, it was lacking and complimented it so well. For dinner I had the elk rack which was cooked excellently it was paired withsome maitake mushroom which was battered and fried and tasty. Again, the reduction on this was bomb. I had the carrot side withit after asking the bartender his favorite side. It kinda sucked. A bit undercooked and totally lacking on the goat cheese whichis what steered me towards them. Drinks were solid. All in all not my favorite place in town anymore but still very solid fordrinks and unique meat dishes. Read more
