Reviews for Austins Seafood & Steakhouse in Metairie, LA

Authentic Italian style restaurant. Great staff and great service. Appetizers were on point. Order a 12oz Filet ???? Medium. It... was very tasty and well seasoned but cooked slightly more than I expected. I was not amazed but also not disappointed. Thehighlight of my night here was the cheesecake. I would say it was probably the best cheesecake that I have eaten in Louisiana. Idid not like the Appetizer bread that is given free because it was just basic but hey, it was free. I would recommend this placefor dinner ????. Read more

I was so excited for my family and I to have some free time to try Austins?.new to the area. Finally?.a day off. I don?t know... where the people who left the rave reviews have been eating but the food I had was a one star only because I can?t leave zerostars. Smoked salmon app, Veal Austin and pork chop?..the smoked salmon was the best thing of the night?.other than thetea?.seriously doubt the salmon was made in-house so no credit should be given there. The contents of the app plate weresomewhat confusing but excusable. The veal was a fried veal cutlet?simple?.the crab topping was good but the roasted potatoesunder were embarrassing?salt was needed across the board. The Maple Pork chop was cooked perfectly?.the dish as a whole was afailure?.rice and yams?no?.neither had any redeeming qualities. I did ask for garlic mashed potatoes to replace my dirtyrice?.the wonderful server had to go back to get my potatoes due to the fact the kitchen disregarded my requestinitially?..again, no?.the garlic mashed potatoes were?..hmmm?.let?s just leave it at that. I only mention the $119 totalbecause it just adds to the disappointment?.the price wasn?t the issue?.the disappointment in the food with a $119 check was. All of that being said?..service was AMAZING. The young ladies at the door were warm and very courteous with a smile and promptseating. The dining room staff was equally impressive. I do regret not getting the name of our server?he went above and beyondto make our experience the best he could?.my young child especially?.cherries and lemons made her night?.thank you. I don?twant anyone to think we hated it?.we didn?t?.the items we had were not good at all?.even the bread brought to the table waslackluster. Austins employees were the star of the night for us?.not enough to bring us back. I can excuse mediocre foodbecause the wait staff is on point?.which it was?but even a stellar staff wasn?t enough to save the food of last night. Read more

One of the best if not the best in the New Orleans area. The food is world class, the atmosphere is classic and the impeccable... service is the icing on the cake. They treat you like family, and not the kind you want to leave. Make sure you request EricWeinmunson as your waiter. He's the best in the business. He treated us like royalty. Read more

My husband took me here for my birthday. It was our first visit. The service was great! Everyone was very friendly and... attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the filet and lobster with a side of a twice baked potato. The steak andlobster were cooked to perfection. It's a bit pricey, but in my opinion I think it's worth it, knowing how good the food is. Wewill definitely be visiting again. Read more

I have been to Austin's twice now and each time was an excellent experience. The second time was for Valentine's Day, which was... obviously busy. Regardless, the service was great. The staff was friendly and helpful. Now, the food......AWESOME!!! I got thefillet and stuffed lobster and my wife got the Barbecue Twin Fillet. Both were great. The crab cakes appetizer was the best I'veever had. I only wish the portion was bigger. And finally, the White and Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake was so good we should havegotten two! Read more
