Restaurants near O. Henry Museum

Decided to have dinner here while visiting Austin and couldn't have had a more enjoyable experience. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted amazing, and the service was absolutely top notch. Mason and Adam were perfect

Came for an early dinner, post Valentine’s Day. The food was delicious! Service was attentive and all the staff we encountered were very kind. My finance ordered the pork tenderloin which was delicious, however it seemed the portion was a bit small. My pork chop was delicious and portioned well. The valet parking is listed as $10 on here, however it is $20, which is a little deceiving. Overall we had a good experience and would come back!

Dean’s lived up to the hype and is the perfect spot to celebrate a special occasion or have a date night if you want upscale but classic Italian steakhouse cuisine with fantastic service! I made reservations for 2 at 9:15 pm on Valentine’s Day (Friday night). We arrived early at 8:50 pm and were seated about 5 minutes ahead of our reserved time. To celebrate Valentine’s Day, they were giving each couple a rose which was such a nice touch! SERVICE - Our server, Hannah, was so attentive, personable, and took great care of us! Despite it being Valentine’s Day, we received great service from start to finish… our water glasses were constantly refilled, food came out quickly, and both the manager and chef checked on us toward the end of the meal to ensure everything was to our liking. We were highly impressed! WAGYU MEATBALLS (8/10) - These were juicy, flavorful, and seasoned really well! You get 5 meatballs with plenty of San Marzano sauce and Grana Padano on top and it comes with a piece of crispy bread. DEAN’S ONION SOUP (10/10) - If you love French onion soup, this is a MUST order! The broth is incredibly flavorful, the cheese is plentiful and perfectly melted, and the volume of onions was ideal. SPICY SHRIMP STROZZAPRETI (9/10) - The strozzapreti was cooked to the perfect al dente and the sauce had a nice balance of cheesiness, creaminess, garlic, and chile oil. 8 OZ PETITE FILET (10/10) - Fantastic steak! It was cooked to a perfect medium rare and had a nice crust around the edges while still being juicy and tender inside. BILLIONAIRE’S POTATO (10/10) - One of the best twice baked potatoes I've had! I LOVE truffle so the freshly shaved truffles on top were a great addition and the actual flavor of the potato was fantastic… you could taste the cheeses but could also still taste the potato so it wasn’t overbearing. This was my first time at Dean’s but I would definitely go back and will recommend it to others in the downtown Austin area!

The food was *chef’s kiss.* The ambience in the outdoor seating area is great. Definitely coming back for another date night

Went in with reservations after reading some reviews but we had a great experience. The food was delicious. The salmon NOT overcooked like most places. We were celebrating a birthday and they made it extra special. Great vibe. Our waitress was very attentive. Will come back!
