You haven't experienced the best of Austin until you've been to ALC Steaks at 12th and Lamar. For truly remarkable steaks served with a generous helping of Austin attitude, visit the Capitol city's only independent, family owned steakhouse. Serving sizzling, hand-cut, aged beef and great friends the way Austinites have loved it since 1993.

    I hate giving bad reviews but this was a really disappointing experience for $500. Steak was over cooked and much smaller than i expected for an $80 Porterhouse.

    Food and wine was great. Short on wait staff possibly as service wasn’t the normal ALC level

    Love the feel of an old school steakhouse. Filet was prefect. Shrimp cocktail sauce is the bomb!

    Steaks were fantastic. Trent is one of the best servers in town. We also really enjoyed the Buffalo Lamb Chops, New Mexico Green Chiles, asparagus and garlic mash.

    The service was horrible, my steak was over cooked, its dark inside so hard to see the menu. We had several different servers. One server took my husband’s fried mushrooms he was suppose to box them up for him instead he threw them away. Finally they took it off of our ticket. I would not recommend this restaurant

    We were there with another couple for our Anniversary / Valentines Dinner. This was our first time there being new to the area. Everything was really nice and the atmosphere was great. Our only complaints was that our waiter seemed to be less attentive to our table and other tables that were seated after ours were getting catered to more. We have to verbally call for attention before they finally started taking our orders. As for the drinks, I ordered a mojito as first which had way too much mint and also extra tart. I then requested for it to be changed to a regular mule, and that also had a very heavy and strong amount of lime in it which made it undrinkable. Which was disappointing. Aside from that, everything else was great. We enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely be back again.
