"Bloomfield will also focus on revamping a fifty-year-old fine-dining steakhouse in Austin, as reported by Texas Monthly." - Melissa McCart
"The first thing you’ll notice about Jeffrey’s is that it feels remarkably cozy. A wood-paneled hallway leads to an open but intimate dining room filled with long rows of red leather booths, decorated with dark green walls and stacks of old books. Start with truffled deviled eggs and fried gulf oysters, order a dry-aged steak to share, then finish with a chocolate soufflé. They take about 20 minutes, which will give you plenty of time to treat yourself to a digestif or one last drink off the martini cart—a by-request, tableside cocktail experience with definite James Bond vibes. A table at Jeffrey’s isn’t too difficult to get if you’re OK with dining early or late, but if you want to secure a prime time spot on a Friday or a Saturday night, you’ll want to plan a solid two months in advance when reservations get released. You can also usually grab a seat at the bar if you show up early, where you’ll also unlock access to the bar menu, which includes a very good pan-seared steak." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion
"Jeffrey’s and the word “free” feel like archenemies, but maybe the cost is just baked into your $150 steak. Either way, dinner at the best steakhouse in Austin comes with at least one bite on the house: popovers. These savory, fluffy pastries arrive hot from the oven and are dangerously easy to devour. Just try not to ruin your appetite. The Deal: Free popovers with dinner A table at Jeffrey’s isn’t too difficult to get if you’re OK with dining early or late, but if you want to secure a prime time spot on a Friday or a Saturday night, you’ll want to plan a solid two months in advance when reservations get released.

"Verdict: Jeffrey’s has been around in some form or another since 1975, and it’s never really missed a beat in that time. This is one of the best fine-dining experiences in Austin, and it’s home to some of the best steaks in town.

"Austin doesn’t have a lot of places that fit the bill for white-tablecloth fine dining, but we do have Jeffrey’s. It’s a little bit classic French, a little bit standard American steakhouse, and every bit a place where you come to celebrate big milestones in exchange for a bill you’ll try to avoid thinking about until the next day. It’s a classy restaurant with a martini cart where epic 30+ day dry-aged steaks occupy half of the tables, next to golden osetra caviar, seared foie gras, and deviled eggs topped with shaved Burgundy truffles.
