BOA Steakhouse

Los Angeles Restaurant BOA Steakhouse Opens in Austin | Eater Austin

"Opening in downtown Austin on Monday, June 3 at 300 West Sixth Street, BOA Steakhouse brings a high-end American steakhouse program led by chef James Flowers. The menu leans heavily into steaks — including dry-aged and wagyu — and also features roasted wagyu bone marrow, smoked steak tartare, king crab ceviche, lobster bolognese, scallops, grilled lamb lollipops, baked potatoes with caviar, a mushroom Wellington, and goat cheese baklava, with tableside Caesar salads for a showy option. For Austin-only dishes Flowers created a pork belly confit, tallow steak fries, and a corn crème brûlée; he previously worked at Austin spots including 1417, the Four Seasons’ Ciclo, and Hopfields. BOA’s full bar offers cocktails such as the Blackberry Smash (lemon vodka, crème de cassis, blackberries), the Smoke Show (rye, maple syrup, orange bitters, applewood smoke), and the La Quebrada (reposado tequila, Aperol, passionfruit, lime, agave), plus beers from Live Oak Brewing Co., Austin Beerworks, Austin EastCiders, Shiner Bock, and Karbach. The Austin space includes an indoor dining room and a private dining room; reservations are available online and hours are 5–10 p.m. Sunday–Thursday and 5–11 p.m. Friday–Saturday." - Nadia Chaudhury
