My favorite thing on the menu? Hands down it's their Turkey 'N Bacon Salad. It's a very unique meaty salad -- kinda like a cross between a great chicken salad and a great ham salad. It's terrific spread directly on bread or crackers, stuffed inside a croissant, or eaten straight out of the container. You could even put it on top of a bed of greens and make it into a leafy salad if that suits your fancy. Any way you choose, you'll like this delicacy. read more

See all

This place has amazing steak/beef. The beef tenderloin salad is delicious. And their macaroni and cheese is amazing. Their lunch menu overall has great selection and I have had an assortment of things that have all been delicious. Also awesome that it's a female owned business. Check this place out! read more

There are so many great things to carry out of Lee's its hard to just mention one (the cheeseburger) but check out the ribeye steaks, the lemon bars, the take out salads, the killer cookies. OK, that said, I think this is where you will find the actual but much overlooked BEST burger in Austin. I've lived in Austin a long time and have eaten the old great famous burgers like at The Counter, Hobdoddy, etc. No, it does not have a fried egg and half an avocado on the top but it is the finest cheeseburger in town. (ask for cheddar) read more

This place is AMAZING!!! Everything is made to order, fresh and simple!!! Reasonable prices!! Salads and sandwiches are out of this world!! Highly recommended!!! read more

Lee's has become my favorite lunch spot in Austin. As many have mentioned it's really best to carry out as there are just a handful of barstools to sit at. The food is phenomenal and the staff is always incredibly kind though. Can't beat the quality for the price...highly recommend! read more

Love love love this place! We get lunch here a lot and I can't bring myself to order anything but the grilled chicken sandwich. It's so freaking good. I also love their mac and cheese. Don't miss out on this place if you get a chance to try it. read more

A friend took me there for the first time today. I had the cheesesteak sandwich served with regular Lay's chips. The sandwich was amazing and cooked perfectly. The sourdough bun was just as good. They have a lot of choices and I can only imagine everything is just as good. Definitely going back!!! read more

went in for lunch with a fellow yelper. the burger was pretty darn close to 5 stars. this is a meat market so the fresh & tasty ground beef is not a surprise. the meat is well seasoned. salt and pepper, not too much else (if anything - although i did see some sort of lee's meat market seasoning on the counter). the light and fluffy bun was a nice touch - it looks big and bulky, but collapses well for optimal chomptitude. the burger included chips. with drink was around $8.5 i think. it's not fast food, but it was cooked reasonably quickly. if you like a soft and chewy cookie, theirs will make you happy. i've had the chocolate chip and the oatmeal raisin. both are top quality. counter space is very limited - three chairs. luckily, there were only two of us. the place is best suited for carry out, so if you get a burger... either eat it there or be close by. i imagine the prepared foods and cold sandwiches would travel better. i'm docking them one star for a well done (as in cooked too much) burger. i asked for it rare. i don't mind if you tell me ahead of time that you can't do rare. that's ok. just please don't tell me yes when i ask for it and then give me something else. read more

Yet again another Austin disappointment. Where else do you go to a meat market to hear they have no meat? No veal, no nothing. It was a Saturday and they were out of everything. IN desperation we said okay how about one of the sandwiches off the board? Oh we stopped serving lunch. OMG!!! What is it with supposed businesses in Austin? And get this. You have to order the Veal and it will come frozen!!!!!! Yes sir this is a REAL meat market alright. Good Lord don't even bother. read more

great lunch stop, good for catering too but be sure to double check your order. I still give them 5 stars b/c if they forget something on your order, they will fix it and throw in a cookie or 2 for the confusion. I just love their chicken sandwiches and salads and their meat market can't be beat. Definitely A++ for lunch. read more

This is the best sub-$10 lunch in Austin. Call ahead and try the tenderloin sandwich. There's very limited seating so I always get it to-go.

One of the best lunch spots in town. They really don't have a whole lot of seats to eat in, but I work nearby and can call my order in and pick it up in 15 min. Cooper's cheesesteak is the best sandwich I've had in a long time, and for 7 bucks...you get A LOT! Aside from good sandwiches they have an huge menu of meats that you can buy to take home and cook yourself...honestly, one of a kind place you have to see to understand. read more

Uhm hello sourdough bread and chicken salad!! And the tomato bisque was rich and creamy and I actually couldn't finish everything because portions were so big. Great quick lunch at a good price. read more

The beef tenderloin sandwich is the best sandwich I've ever had. Truth. Also I'd say, the best valued sandwich, I would have gladly paid nearly double that price. I've never been a "regular" anywhere in my life, but that changes today. I will come here at least once a week until fate rips me from this city. Lee's Meat Market, my hunger for you is a blessing and a curse on a sourdough bun. read more

One star. Why? Terrible customer service. I went int to buy a side, preferably a big one because I was taking it to a party. I chose mac n cheese. "Do you sell this in your casserole sizes," I asked, after the one person in there finally decided to speak to me. "No we don't," he replied. "Ok well then give me two quarts of mac n cheese and can I have a casserole dish to put in when I get to the party." "No," he says. "I have no way of ringing one of those up, you can go to the Randall's down the street and buy one there." Never mind that THE LEE of Lee's Meat Market is standing behind him the whole time complaining about "people" i.e. her customers. I'm sure I saw a side of them no one sees often because I was the only customer in there. I'm never coming back. EVER. The whole point of a local business is that you get taken care of. Were it Melissa's Meat Market I would have handled it this way: No we don't have any casserole size mac n cheese right now but I can sell you two quarts and give you a foil casserole dish to take home or I can empty the two quarts into the dish for you ma'am. How's that sound? read more

Lee's Meat Market is Fantastic!!! If you want the best steaks you can get this is the place. We had lunch then purchased filets and two great twice baked potatoes for dinner. The best we have found in Austin. I will be back and this is the only place I will by steaks from now on. Thanks for everything. The service is great also. Lee thank you for taking care of us we appreciate it!!!! read more

The food is good, but customer service and communication is terrible. I would not recommend using them for catering an event, they were very poor with managing details and providing basic customer service. They were very rushed and rude during interactions and Mis-handled a key component of our catering order read more

Been here a handful of times. Even if you're the only one there it will take 5-10 minutes to get your order, but the food is better than good and the proprietor is happy to see you and maintains an agreeable attitude. It is not cheap but it is quality. The breads are fresh, the condiments like mustard (spicy stoneground german style) and tartar sauce appear to be freshly prepared. Personally, I think they are overpriced, but when you look at the location they have...rent ain't cheap. read more

A clean, small, and very good place for lunch. I eat hear regularly and I am always very happy with both the service and the food. My fav? The chicken fried steak sandwich! Be friendly and they return the favor. read more

Fresh chicken salad sandwich, Greek salad or chicken fried steak sandwhich (yeah, you read that right!) all are solid options.

I had one of the best salads with flavorful juicy beef strips last year. Since then, I've ordered it several more times and it's been a hit or miss. read more

Best beef tenderloin I've ever had, anywhere - period! A little difficulty doing business by phone ordering, but it was well worth going in and placing my order. Will be my annual Christmas dinner tradition now. read more

Unbelievable salads for reasonable prices. I work around the corner and when I don't have time to prepare a lunch at home for the day, I totally look forward to my salads. The Cobb is amazing and my new favorite is the fancy salad with chicken. Great little gem! read more

Meat was lovely. Meat was pricey. Service was sloooooowwwww.

A great locally owned business with excellent meats. Their sandwiches are outstanding too. They do a great job with custom meat orders and can put together an entire meal for you. Love this place. read more

This place has the best sandwiches. Simple, not fancy but fresh, and yummy. Good sized portions. Delicious sourdough that looks, feels and tastes like homemade Hawaiian roll. Not really much space to dine in and chat with a friend. Better to go. read more

I ordered the broccoli casserole for the holidays. Opened the container and all I saw was a yellow packed mass of rice with a few stalks of broccoli. I supposse you can say it was broccoli and rice but it was not the broccoli rice casserole I know. It took me about two hours to add to this mass of rice to make it edible. Wont trust them again. read more

Disappointed today when I dropped in to purchase 2 steaks for my anniversary. They couldn't cut me the steaks due to needing to fill holiday orders first. read more

Most amazing cuts of meat you will ever cook and eat. The salt and pepper seasoning that you can buy is simplistic yumminess on everything, even grilled veggies. Try asking for ribeye, seasoned and you will get a 1+ inch cut of the best steak you ever grilled. I recommend charcoal but I honestly think you could cook with almost any method and it be delicious. It's worth every penny. read more

I am upgrading my rating to 4 stars because I finally found a time when they would serve me (it is now a long standing joke in my house that it's a waste of time even trying). It took them 20 mins to make a sandwich but I will say it was grubbin'. read more

The tenderloin sandwich on sourdough is outstanding. I have always loved the meat that they sell but have never before gotten a sandwich. I will be back soon. Beef in general has gotten ridiculously expensive, so the sandwiches are a steal for the quality. read more

good food but rude to customers. I purchased $130+ of food but was scolded by the owner for faxing in my order even though the website plainly states...Order by phone 467-6700 or fax 467-6742 I was also scolded for ordering the wrong size side. In person i was told there is no such thing as a "half" order of sides. The website plainly states Large, Half, Small, or Pint. Example (taken straight from website): Market Veggie Sides Large (for 10-12) $26.95 | Half (for 6-8) $14.95 Small/Qt (for 4) $7.95 | Pint (for 1) $3.95 read more

Great food but more than a little miffed that they left off the lettuce and tomatoes from my tenderloin sandwhich and left the roll out of my co-worker's salad order (all to go). This after holding for 16 minutes to get hung up on while ordering... at 1pm, not what I would consider the busiest time of the lunch rush. SERVICE lacking... read more

tenderloin sandwich, big tea... very happy... combine with visit to Anderson's Coffee Company, win win!

Cooper's Cheesesteak Sandwich - The meat was salty, the bun was sweet, the peppers were sparse and I couldn't taste the cheese at all - which, considering the name of the sandwich, was the most disappointing defect. My first time here. Probably my last. read more

Finally had a chance to try the Tenderloin Sammich... Yum. I at that thing almost 5 hours ago and I am not even approaching hungry again.

The food is good, but the customer service is horrible. If you are coming in for lunch make sure you have 45 mins to wait for a salad! If you serve lunch you should have enough staff to help the people coming in and be able to answer the phone. I don't normally do reviews but after having this happen over and over I thought others should know. read more

Great for lunch. Love the salads, pimento cheese and BLT! We are in the neighborhood shopping center and have been customers for years. They always provide a huge portion for the money. We love Lee's and enjoy eating local! read more

Bought some amazing double cut pork chops here last weekend. My family and guests didn't leave a crumb.

Delicious pre-made southern cooking raw, frozen, or hot & ready! I always go for the cheap lunch menu. Seating is small to non-existent, so take out is best. No waiter, but honestly the best grilled chicken sandwich I've Ever had! Pricing is fantastic, but hours are limited. This place is also called "Coopers's meat market" I believe read more
