You haven't experienced the best of Austin until you've been to ALC Steaks at 12th and Lamar. For truly remarkable steaks served with a generous helping of Austin attitude, visit the Capitol city's only independent, family owned steakhouse. Serving sizzling, hand-cut, aged beef and great friends the way Austinites have loved it since 1993.

    We always go to ALC for special occasions. It’s quiet, great food and service. It’s easy to have a private conversation here.

    We had a great server who was very very attentive. The food was perfect as always, and the ambience was spot on. One of our favorite places is in Austin and will continue to come back.

    Brandon was a great waiter. Steak was good but not out of the park good. But that’s why the prices were reasonable. So good value.

    One of the few iconic old Austin feel establishments with outstanding food and service. Bar and wine pours are way above average!! Most servers have been there a long time.

    Honestly, I love ALC, but my ribeye was tough and gristly. Not my usual experience there. Salad, side and drinks were all good.
