Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in Central Austin

Steiner Ranch never disappoints it’s a holiday special place for our family. The steaks are magnificent especially the T-bones. I had pasta carbonara with shrimp. It was absolutely dishes and she crab soup. I would highly recommend that great selection of wines and beers. Overall, never disappoint. You can always count on them. I will return many times in the future.

We had an outside table with a beautiful view of the city. It was a chilly night but the heat lamps kept us toasty. The cocktails were fantastic. My friend and I both had a Pomegranate Lemon Drop. The service was attentive without being disruptive to conversation and privacy. We shared 3 appetizers - baked goat cheese, calamari and ahi tuna tacos. All three were good but the goat cheese and ahi tuna tacos were top notch. Highly recommend.

First time visit to help friend celebrate a birthday with happy hour bubbly and charcuterie board in the Laurel indoor lounge adjacent to main dining room. Well done with Italian cheeses and meats, olives, marcona almonds, fig preserves and crackers, and crudite. Take 4 or more people with you or plan to take some back to hotel room or home. Stayed for dinner in well lit main dining room of Laurel. Simo, waiter, was a very attentive but in the background server, reminding me of fine server experiences in Dallas at the Mansion restaurant there. On hearing of a celebration, Simo surprised us by bringing roses in a vase for the table. We noticed he also brought out a floral arrangement for another dining party celebrating something that evening. Memorable nice touch! Shrimp in pasta dish were large and tasty. Brussels sprouts were delightfully crisp with sweet finish. Unexpected star of the evening was the light pistachio sponge cake with berries in decorated plate. Enjoyable evening. Couldn’t wait to try breakfast the next morning. (Will later try to upload photos but having trouble with app. 🤞)
