Samantha Jogoleff We visited to celebrate our anniversary after hearing so many great things about the food and views and quickly realized why it’s so highly recommended! The smell of the wood fire hits you as soon as you walk up, setting the tone and really getting you excited for the entire experience youre about have. The space is beautiful, and the patio offers incredible views! Plus the patio has coverage and heaters, so no biggie if it rains! The hostess greeted us right away, and Mariah, our server, was attentive and truly thoughtful throughout the night with great recommendations and surprises. The food was outstanding! Honestly, probably some of THE BEST weve enjoyed in Austin! The happy hour machete was MASSIVE, perfectly crispy and cheesy with an addicting side crema that I saved to use in case I wanted to pair with other food items, it was that good. Im typically not a huge mole person so I was hesitant on ordering anything with it, but heard they were known for their 800 day aged mole. I asked if it was possibly to try a small amount to see if that would be something wed enjoy and she brought out a sample to try and WOW! They do a savory style mole and it is JAW DROPPING! Creamy, luscious and definitely worth ordering! This is coming from someone who is not a mole person, well at least the sweet kind of mole. Now I know theres a better one out there! While I couldnt get over how incredible the mole was, we were dying to try their carne asada and the venison chops that they had on the menu, especially since you dont see venison often. The carne asada was well cooked and flavorful and came with a super cheesy chile relleno. but the venison double chops completely stole the show—exceptional tenderness, flavor, and execution. Their margaritas were excellent, especially the fact that you could make them spicy with their house-made pepper mix, where you can really taste the fresh jalapeños. They surprised us with a champagne toast and anniversary sweets (Fresh feeling strawberry ice cream and shortbread buttery confetti type cookies) that made the night feel extra special. We did follow that with a chocolate cake, that didnt feel like it would put you in a sugar coma and had a cherry guajillo puree that gave it a little spiced kick. Absolutely worth the drive and already on our list to return—especially for brunch and one of their mole dishes! They are a must stop in Austin!

Linda Bright We (a group of 14) went for Sunday Brunch. The selection is limited, but it has enough variety that everyone can find something that they like. My dad got the Smoked Salmon omelet, Texas Pancakes, and a side of fruit. The pancakes were huge and looked beautiful & delicious. My nephew wished he had gotten the pancakes; he would like to go back, but were only in San Antonio 2 more days, and they only have pancakes on Sunday. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. The bartender did a wonderful job at creating drinks, the meals were filling, and the atmosphere was cheerful and welcoming.

Jaime Calderon This place was chosen to celebrate my birthday, and I had very high expectations. I had been looking for a truly special place to spend the day with my family, and I was not disappointed at all. My wife made the reservation, and we were able to review the menu beforehand on the website. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Vegas, an exceptionally kind and attentive person. He shared with us the history of the building where the restaurant is located and made everything easy by patiently explaining the menu. From the very beginning, every interaction was simply outstanding. The food started arriving with calamari as an appetizer, along with delicious homemade bread and butter. The bread was unbelievably soft-unlike anything I had ever tasted, fluffy, warm, and absolutely delicious. When Vegas brought our main courses, everything was amazing. The ribeye I ordered was cooked exactly as I had imagined, perfect in every way. As we enjoyed our meal, more guests began to arrive, and it was wonderful to see that Vegas and his colleague (I sincerely apologize for not remembering her name) treated everyone with the same warmth and care. One thing that truly stood out to me was when Randy, the owner of the restaurant, personally came out to greet the guests, making sure everything was okay and that everyone was happy. That gesture says so much about the heart behind this place. Then came dessert time, and Vegas delighted us with three desserts: cheesecake, key lime pie, and ice cream with strawberries for my son. He took a small candle from the table, it was an electric candle, and playfully made it feel like a real one. They sang “Happy Birthday” to me, all orchestrated by this incredibly kind gentleman whom I had never met before, yet who gave me a beautiful and unexpected gift. When the check arrived, the desserts were not included, they were on the house, generously offered by him. If you are looking for a place where you can enjoy amazing food and spend a truly exceptional afternoon, I sincerely hope you visit Randy’s Steakhouse and experience this for yourself. I will definitely be returning with more family members to try the other delicious dishes and, of course, to say hello again to our friend Vegas. Thank you to the entire team at Randy’s Steakhouse for your outstanding service and the incredible quality of your food. You truly deserve a round of applause. A thousand, thousand thanks.

Michael Yeo Wow. This place is cool. Great atmosphere and vibe. Staff wears a cool apron looking attire. They have a great dinning area and a bar and also a wine cellar. Great place for large or small group. It was very busy when we went but got seated quickly. If you have a big group, call for reservation. Great menu. We order shrimp scampi and clam linguini. Both were great. Tasted delicious and portion was good. The bread for the scampi is great too. Our server was great. He was able to memorized orders for 10 people without writing them down.

Robin Andrews A 10/10 meal. Definitely one of the best dinners I’ve had not just in Texas, but the entire US. Everything was delicious, but a special shoutout goes to the Gulf Redfish, which was a singularly tasty and well-constructed plate of food. Phenomenal. Make the time to come here if you’re in Houston; you won’t be disappointed.

Bonus Mom Everything about Boudros on the riverwalk is outstanding. We came in for an early dinner and sat outside and people watched while we ate. The service is fantastic, servers are friendly and professional and are quick to give suggestions on the food. We had the fried oysters for an appetizer and hubby had shrimp and grits while I had the mesquite grilled Texas quail. Of course we shared and couldn’t decide which plate was better. We will definitely be back here on our next trip.
