    Filet mignon happy hour
    Jamie P.

    Our first visit was absolutely 5 stars. Our second was about 3 stars because the food was luke warm when served. Otherwise, the happy hour in the bar area is so underrated! Their cocktails are fantastic. They have a sliced filet mignon, prime sliders, tacos, etc all for $12 from 4-7. They also have $10 cocktails such as an espresso martini or the sangria. I ordered a couple cocktails from the regular menu and each one was better than the last and worth the price. The chocolate cake, split between the four of us, and still not finish - was soooo good! Rich and decadent. We'll be back!

    Cheese Bread (complimentary)
    Joyce L.

    Dropped in for Social Hour (nightly from 4-7pm), and apparently everything *is* bigger in Texas, because the two "small plates" I ordered were anything but! Sat at the bar and received prompt and efficient service. The dim lighting made it a bit difficult to read the menu, but provided a chill ambiance. The Grilled Pineapple J Kabob (three mini kabobs of filet mignon, bell peppers, and onions, served on a slice of grilled pineapple) was deliciously flavorful and practically a complete meal in and of itself. The Filet Mignon à la Parrilla (sliced tenderloin over creamy polenta, topped with grilled bell peppers and chimichurri) was equally bountiful but too salty for my taste due to the unexpected amount of bacon slotted in between slices of filet. Thankfully the complimentary basket of Cheese Bread wasn't salty at all, and neither was my Cucumber Martini ;P.

    Seafood Pasta
    Vincent X.

    I came here to carb overload for the Austin 2026 Marathon. I was able to conquer all those pesky uphills, thanks to the scrumptious Seafood Pasta. It had all the imaginable umami from the seafood, sharpness from the cheese, and was perfectly married with the lemon beurre blanc sauce. Not really worth the price, but I would definitely still buy it again. I also got the loaded potato and celebration cake. It was difficult to enjoy the loaded potato because it was too stacked, and the potato itself was a little bland and dry to me. The celebration cake is a bit on the sweeter side, but was also absolutely monstrous. Regardless, I definitely have to come back to try a different main and explore the other starters.

    Crispy Brussels tossed with feta and shaved prosciutto

    Okay! So I travelled to Austin, Tx for work and for the last week, I've been talking about a good steak from Texas. I try and find locations nearby my hotel so I do not have to travel and lo and behold, J Prime was the next block over. The atmosphere was calm, a little dark to maybe set a more romantic or high class mood but my colleague and I were not in our best dress but the staff didn't make us feel like we were underdressed. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and sat at the bar. The two baristas greeted us and immediately brought water while asking if we wanted to drink. On Mondays, it seems like the restaurant has an all day happy hour so I ordered a lemon drop martini and opted for the $2 up charge because of my drink of choice. So a select few of drinks including some liquor was $10. I order two lemon drops for $12 each. They tasted amazing and shout out to the bar tenders. I ordered the 16oz ribeye ($70) with the garlic/herb butter. It may not look appealing in my photo, but let me tell you... it was delicious and exactly what I wanted. I ordered the crispy Brussels ($15) as my side minus the chopped walnuts and they were also delicious. In total I spent out $140 including tip. The sides are large enough to share and the happy hour specials are worth it. If you're in Downtown Austin, give JPrime a shot.

    If I could give this place 6 stars, I would! I have eaten at most of the steakhouses in Austin, but for some reason, not J. Prime until this weekend, and I am so mad at myself for never trying it sooner! The steak was literally perfect! I have no other words! The sides were delicious, the drinks on point! Friendly service, and the ambiance was so nice and classy! I ordered the 16 oz ribeye medium, and I damn near was licking my fingers. I don't even like Brussels sprouts, but the way they cooked it gave me a change of heart! We finished with their creme brûlée, which is the best dessert after a big meal. This is in my top 2 ratings for best steakhouses in Austin

    Espresso Martini
    Kendal S.

    Booked this place the first Friday of SXSW for a private partner dinner. Just 10 of us -- super intimate setup -- and wow... they absolutely delivered. I'll start with this: one of the guests at the table said it was the best meal they've ever had in their life. And this isn't someone who just eats out occasionally. This is a speaker who travels the country every week trying new restaurants. That statement alone should tell you something. Let's start with the bread because wowwww. These rolls deserve their own category in the "great restaurant breads of the world" conversation. I can't even fully describe them. They're small enough to fit in the palm of your hand -- almost bite-sized but still substantial. Warm, soft, and there's this subtle cheesy flavor baked right into the dough. Then they bring out the chive butter on the side... forget about it. Unreal. Next up: the lobster bisque. Some of the best I've ever had. If you're there, just get it. Don't think twice. I didn't personally get the wedge salad, but a few people at the table did and it looked incredible. That's already locked in as the first thing I'm ordering the next time I'm back in Austin. For appetizers I went with the shrimp cocktail -- huge shrimp, super fresh, exactly what you want. The charcuterie board was also really well done, but the smoked meat tray was the one that really stole the show. And whatever they're doing with the cheese on that tray... wow. Just trust me and order it. For the main course I went with the filet and they nailed it. Cooked perfectly. No notes. Then the sides came out and things really took off. The crab fried rice was insane, the potatoes were great, and the Brussels sprouts absolutely held their own too. End of the day, this is the best steakhouse in Austin... until someone proves me wrong. 5

    The food was too good and forgot to take pics so here is one pic after dinner lol

    J Prime is one of the best dining experiences I've had in Austin. The interior feels luxurious, and the tables are large and well separated, so you never feel like you're sitting closer to another party than your own. The service was impeccable from start to finish. Our table was attended to meticulously, but never in a way that felt intrusive. I also loved that they openly recommended sharing a steak because of the portion sizes, which is uncommon and very practical. I personally went with the A5 Wagyu, and it was absolutely amazing. The bartender was also top notch. My extra dirty martini was impeccable. Excellent place overall.

    A night to remember! The ambience, vibes, and overall atmosphere were Grade A from the moment we walked in! The staff were absolutely amazing, knowledgeable about the menu from front to back, attentive, and made amazing recommendations. Now, let's get the food because it was exceptional I don't eat, so I can't speak on the steak, but my friend said, "It was terrific and flavorful, and on a scale from 1 to 10, it was a 7.75." The salmon was absolutely amazing, very juicy and full of flavor. I really enjoyed the seafood pasta; it was creamy with lots of seafood. J Prime was an all-around phenomenal dining experience. I'll definitely return once my pockets replenish.

    The ambiance and waitress service was great! Drinks and food were served to perfection

    Chilean Seabass
    Delores L.

    Today's my birthday and it started with breakfast in bed by Chef Hubs! The night ended with dinner at J Prime Steakhouse located in the heart of downtown Austin. J Prime epitomizes fine dining. We valet parked because it was cold and it's no fun walking in the cold. When we walked in the hostess welcomed us as if when were family members, she had not seen in quite some time. We were seated at booth with sprinkled pink rose petals, a Happy Birthday Card and lighted balloon (yes lighted...Christmas like lights yet smaller on the string of the balloon and inside the balloon...nice touch!). Based on the balloon count in the dining room, 6 people were celebrating birthdays. James, our server, introduced himself and offered us water while we decided on our meal. J Prime is a large space with 3-4 private dining spaces in the back that will seat 30-40 people depending on how the rooms are configured. Interesting fact learned it used to be a Mexican restaurant with a patio. My hubby ordered lobster bisque and Ora Atlantic Salmon cooked a cedar plank with an orange slice underneath. I ordered a beet salad (an aesthetically pleasing salad and equally delicious) and Chilean seabass, one of my favorite fish. Before any food was brought to the table, we were offered a complimentary palate cleanser - tiny pancake with caviar topping. It was quite tasty. My hubby really enjoyed his salmon...it was crispy on top and moist inside. He said his lobster bisque was smooth and flavorful. My Chilean seabass was seared on top as requested. It also had some associated greens and sundried tomatoes underneath. The combination of textures and flavors created a welcome mouth explosion. We shared au gratin potatoes, which were more like mash potatoes than scalloped potatoes but still quite delicious. In addition, the Italian prosecco was refreshing and light. Before we began our dessert, we were offered another palate cleanser - lime sorbet along with a small towel to cleanse our hands. We had complimentary dessert...usually confetti cake but they were out at dinner time. Our waiter offered us one dessert from the menu instead and we chose carrot cake...it was moist with a hint of cinnamon loaded with nuts and cream cheese frosting. So yummy!!! While the food was excellent, the real standout was service...excellent service! James, our server was frequently at our table along with a water person. We drank a few sips of water and our glasses were refilled. We also had Andres, the general manager, stop by our table to check on us a few times. Andres engaged us in meaningful conversation. Both James and Andres were super friendly and attentive. Service...chef's kiss!!! The small yet appealing touches...coat check, table stand for your purse and leftovers packaged before your very eyes at your table. My birthday dinner could not have been better!!! Look forward to returning...

    Restaurant week dessert options

    Restaurant week reservation number 2. Early dinner and chose bar seating. Not very busy at all and they have a huge bar. Katie the bartender was very kind and I appreciated her providing comments in the items selected. For $75 you've got options, see menu photos. I went with the Lobster bisque, NY strip, added Brussel sprouts +$10 (they had several options for sides and the carrot cake. Lobster bisque was delicious, I enjoyed the flavor and only thing that would make it better is to have more lobster r pieces in it. Steak was seasoned well, no additional modifications needed. Brussel sprouts were amazing, I opted to finish the steak over Brussel sprouts. Carrot cake, also delicious. Only got a few bites in as I was stuffed from everything else. The espresso martinis are also delightful. Man, all around good times.

    Five star experience! Service was amazing, food was tasty, and possibly one of the best desserts I've ever had. We came at 5pm and the restaurant was pretty empty so staff was VERY attentive. Nice Happy Hour options but we weren't drinking. I went with the New York strip 10oz and my friends got the filet mignon 8oz. We all enjoyed our steaks! For sides we got the fries and broccolini. The broccolini was very tasty, though a little pricey. The fries were good but a lil soggy, not crisp enough and too much garlic. We got a free dessert for my friends bday and the piece was huge! We shared it and omg... all agreed it was possibly the best cake we've ever had.

    Beef carpaccio
    Claudia G.

    I came for the happy hour menu and it was a great experience! It's hard to come by restaurants these days that offer a good menu for food & drinks. It was a great opportunity to sample what the restaurant has to offer. What's great is that the happy hour is even on a Sunday. The place was very quiet but the service was still great. What's great too is free street parking in downtown on Sundays which is a double win! The expresso martini was top notch! I ordered the steak with potato for my meal and beef carpaccio as an appetizer and they were both very tasty. For the price and the quantity of food, it was just perfect! I would def add it to your happy hour list to try.

From the moment we sat down, the service set a phenomenal tone for the meal. Our server, Avery, genuinely took the time to ask what we were interested in, thoughtfully guiding us through the menu with recommendations that were, frankly, unbelievable. Every single suggestion was spot-on. As for the food, every dish that arrived at the table was a masterpiece: The Brunch Plate: A beautifully classic, elevated breakfast. The sunny-side-up eggs were cooked to absolute perfection, seasoned with a light touch of pepper and spice. Paired with perfectly golden, crispy hash browns, savory sausage, thick-cut toast, and a rich fruit compote, it was a flawless, hearty start to the day. The Beet & Citrus Salad: A vibrant, refreshing standout. The earthy depth of roasted red and golden beets paired wonderfully with bright, juicy citrus segments, creamy crumbled cheese, and fresh greens. It was beautifully balanced, incredibly fresh, and a perfect contrast of textures. The Pesto Pasta: Absolutely spectacular. The pasta shape held onto the rich, flavorful pesto sauce perfectly, which was tossed with fresh spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and tender chicken, all finished with a generous dusting of parmesan. It was savory, comforting, and packed with bright, fresh flavor. Between the flawless, attentive service and the phenomenal quality of the kitchen, they made this Father's Day incredibly memorable. We will absolutely be back!

    Some friends took us here for a birthday celebration, taking a chance because they'd never been…read morethere either. What a find! Rosé Gosé (note accents) is in an unassuming Airport Blvd location (right next to Jewboy Burgers, an Austin favorite). It is run by a couple from Belarus that came here right after Covid to open up a restaurant, with a sister in Minsk. Defying expectations, the menu is not Balkan at all. If anything, there is a strong Asian influence with poke bowls and a lot of seafood. But the menu also offers beef tartare on their raw bar menu, as well as a steak offering and grilled chicken. It's a diverse and adventurous menu, all the way from small plates to hefty mains and vegetable sides. For the dessert, try the pavlova, a meringue confection stuffed with coconut mousse and topped with lime sorbet and a grapefruit slice sidecar. Everything is superbly presented, and unquestionably fresh and healthy without veering into twigs and berries territory. The cocktail menu is also playful, with a lot of nontraditional glassware and slight spins on popular drinks; their version of a Paloma uses prosecco instead of a splash of soda. The servers are all dressed in rosé jumpsuits and very attentive. The space is amiable and elegant without being pretentious. The table spacing is a little close, so that conversations carry between guests. The table setting has some nice touches, like the little wooden bench that holds your fork and knife off the table. In European fashion, water can be asked for but it won't be served with ice. Plan on taking your time and enjoying course after course.

    My hubs chose Rosé Gosé for my Mother's Day brunch location. In full transparency, choosing a…read morerestaurant is not his jam. However, today major shout out to the hubs. Rosé Gosé was a delightful Mother's Day lunch spot. It is a whole vibe, and it is uniquely French! When we walked in an artist was playing romantic music on his keyboard, which set the tone for the brunch. It is a small restaurant inside with a larger area of seating on the patio. Of course, our reservations were inside in the comforts of air conditioning. You immediately notice a wine wall hence the name Rosé Gosé. The restaurant has many windows which provide lots of natural light. The tables house miniature yellow roses and utensils sat in a small wooden block...very French. All the servers were dressed in mauve clothing that resemble scrubs from a hospital. If someone stepped out in a French beret, I would have fallen over. Our server, Sergey, immediately served us water and took our order. The restaurant was highlighted as a modern European bistro. The atmosphere was charming, elegant, and stylish making it ideal for a Mother's Day brunch. My hubby ordered a ribeye, eggs and French Fries. I ordered the avocado toast with salmon and egg whites. While I'm not a huge red meat eater, I tasted a piece of the hubs ribeye and it was nicely prepared. My avocado toast was yummy to the nth degree! Everything was perfect. The avocado was precisely cut and at the right level of softness. The salmon was chopped into tiny little squares and so enjoyable to eat. We could not be more pleased. With a name like Rosé Gosé you would expect their drinks to be superb. My hubby ordered a hibiscus tea, which was delightful. I ordered a mimosa that had high quality ingredients and was perfectly balanced...so smooth. We were also pleased with the drinks. This was the first time at Rosé Gosé, however, it definitely will not be the last.
