At Austin's, we've been cooking the old fashioned way since 1994. We start with the freshest ingredients we can find, delivered to our kitchen each day of the week. We make everything on our menu from scratch, every day. We grill over hardwood, not gas, the way that it was a long time ago. It may not be the fastest or least expensive way to do business, but for us, it is the only way. We want each meal you enjoy with us to be a memorable and delicious one; so we work hard preparing each dish to order, smoking ribs and brisket, filleting fresh fish, hand cutting steaks, preparing homemade soups daily and baking our fresh breads and desserts. Its a difference you can taste and one we hope you will keep coming back for. At Austin's, everything we do, we do because our customers deserve it. We will always insist on a level of service and quality that helps us deserve you.

    Food is delicious and authentic South American from the butterflied NY strip steak, to the chesse arepas, and rice and beans. Stellar Margaritas; ask for Daniel- he is an amazing server!

    This was our first visit to Friar's Table and we had a wonderful experience! We love the decor, the service, the food and the very friendly wait staff! I thoroughly enjoyed my salmon with the beets and oranges as a side. My husband and daughter got the beef stew as an appetizer and found it absolutely delicious. The only issue was that my daughter got a lot of beef in her cup and my husband got a lot of broth. But this is an easy fix! In addition, my daughter enjoyed a delicious salad and my husband enjoyed his chicken dish very much! We will be back for sure! Great job everyone!
