Hoffbrau Steakhouse

Everything was excellent! Food!! Staff! I asked specific questions that were answered in detail. Very nice staff! Amazing food! Simple menu made the whole meal about the steak! Loved it! Will absolutely be back and will bring people! I may sing it from the rooftops! There's a reason they've been around for over 85 years!!!

I had the luxury of eating there late 80's, early 90's, and this place was amazing, Huge sirloin steaks, great salad, and steak potatoes. I got to know the ladies there so well, they gave the recipe for the salad (not that difficult). I can now make this meal myself, it is actually my favorite meal, and takes me back there every time.

The Original Hofbrau has been on W 6th St since 1932, and the decor shows it. The menu is simple and the only choice is what meat you want, but it does allow for a two person operation. You will eat the “love it or leave it” salad will depend on how much you like garlic. Personally, we'd skip the potato wedges and pay extra for the order the onion rings The steaks are reasonably priced when you compare them to a high end steak restaurant. Our tenderloins are cut very thin. The menu says the bread is meant for soppin’. We get it when the meat arrives, because the steak is swimming in a butter sauce.

This. Place. Is. Amazing. We literally loved everything, and was the best steak we have ever had. We have eaten at MANY steakhouses. No frills, just delicious food. My margarita was tasty as well! Not to mention, you are greeted promptly by truly caring staff/owners. We will probably eat here once or twice a month from now on!

Holy Cow. Seriously!! Holy Cow!!! I think these steaks are holy. I LOVE his place. They can cook a steak. I love the atmosphere. So laid back and casual. The history of the place is amazing. This place has a lot of heart. Excellent service. The waitress,Amanda, was on top of everything. She is super nice and put my to go box together. This place has it all. Amazing food and service.

I was in Austin for business and my coworker and I were pointed towards Hoffbrau for steaks. It was the first time either of us had been to Austin, so we relied on local recommendations. This place did not disappoint. The owner sat and had a lovely conversation with us and told us all about the history of the restaurant from prohibition to current times. The steak was absolutely delightful and the “love it or leave it” salad was very rich. By far one of the best tasting and cooked steaks I’ve ever had. If you like a small, cozy setting with some awesome steaks, hit this place up. You won’t be disappointed.
