We ate there last night for our 40th anniversary. The staff was most courteous and professional. They had rose petals and an anniversary card waiting on our table when we arrived. The food was divine, and the service Jeff provided was exceptional. The final wonderful moment was when we ordered Bananas Foster Cake. Oh, heavenly yum! A wonderfully memorable evening.

Nice atmosphere and good service. Our waiter was very helpful in helping us with the specials and explaining some selections. He also helped pick a wine that complemented our meals.

It's a tradition for my wife and I. A nice white-linen restaurant in the Arboretum area of north Austin. The food is very good (but not great) and the prices are high, but it's a good way to have a special meal. Wine list is good. Steaks are decent. Appetizers and sides are great (especially the crab cakes and truffled... More

I have been to Eddie V's many time over the years and have never been disappointed. I have had steaks, and fish and all dishes were cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is outstanding and the servie is impeccable! The lobster bisque for an appetizer is outstanding! Thanks Eddie V's for always provided a great food and great service!

the food was all great. But, Corn and bacon chowder, not so much. Lobster tacos just okay. Bananas foster was the greatest surprise - with flaming rum sauce - perfect! Service was very, very good.

I ate here with my parents last week for my birthday dinner, and was thrilled with the whole experience. The hostess was so welcoming, and asked right away if we were here for a special occasion (birthday). After being seated, our waiter and runner and dessert guy all wished me a warm, "Happy birthday!" Yes, it's simple, but little things... More

This place is top of the line at a modestly high price but not too bad - and its worth it. It had a free Jazz band in the Lounge on a Tuesday night and it was packed at 7:00. But it emptied out for teh most part by 8:00. Food was outstanding (seafood and steaks). You cant order wrong.... More
