J Carver Austin Reviews from The Last Year
💯
The bartenders were knowledgeable and skilled, ensuring that each drink was perfectly balanced and full of flavor

The presentation of the drinks was also noteworthy, with beautiful garnishes and creative glassware that added to the overall experience.
Awesome atmosphere
I was blown away. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with an awesome atmosphere and exquisite interiors that set the perfect tone for the evening. The attention to detail in the decor and ambiance was truly impressive.
Excellent restaurant! The whole experience from decor,
Excellent restaurant! The whole experience from decor, drinks, food, staff, and quality shine at this restaurant. Definitely a must if you are ever in town!
This was one of the best dining experiences I have had!
This was one of the best dining experiences I have had! Charles was for sure the top server I've had since living in Austin. The food was excellent as were the drinks. I totally recommend this place for a celebration or a fun date night.
First off, we had a reservation for 5pm when they open.
I ordered a Tomahawk ribeye, which is my favorite. We were told that the smallest is usually 35oz. When the server came back, he said the smallest they had left, immediately after opening, was 48oz. Now I obviously planned on taking some home if I wanted even the smallest at 35oz but 48oz?! 4lbs is way over the top for one person. We were then told I could get a 20oz strip. This is way less than 48oz. Not a huge fan of strip but okay. This was shortly followed by, "the smallest steak we have is a 35oz porterhouse." Okay, I'll have the porterhouse. I ordered it medium rare plus. The temp on the steak after 3 tries....with the same piece of meat...was still blue rare and cool to touch. They obviously had difficulty reheating the porterhouse because it comes already sliced off the bone. The manager came over but never offered to fire a new steak. And this is at $4.50 an ounce so that's $157.50 for a steak they can't get right!On a positive note, service, ambiance, appetizers, sides and dessert were all delicious. And the wine list is very good. If I was sure they could get the steak right, this could be our go to place, but at those prices and lack of available steaks at 5pm, I'm not sure we will return.
My husband and I visited J Carvers for Valentine's Day,
My husband and I visited J Carvers for Valentine's Day, this was our 4th dining experience here. As always our experience was amazing. From the cocktails, to the appetizers, oysters, steaks and desserts this is hands down our go to steakhouse in Austin, and we have tried them all.
Wonderful service, delicious food, great drinks.
My husband and I came here for the first time for a pre-Valentine's dinner and were blown away. The bone marrow is a must have! Recommend to anyone!
The pork chops were dry.
The service was sloppy. The sides are overpriced. Not sure why the bone pieces were thrown away when my leftovers were boxed, it's what I was looking forward to the most.
The service is so attentive and kind.
Yes, actually kind. Very personable and a full understanding of the menu. Had the bone in filet with lobster along with mushroom, spinach, corn brûlée, and gnocchi. All perfectly done. The bread service is dripping with garlicky butter and addictive. The lobster bisque covered in a puff pastry is among the top three bisques I've had. Finally the vanilla bean cream brûlée was huge and perfectly braised. I had the gin and juice cocktail (salty gin with carrot and celery) and it was delightfully refreshing. The atmosphere was upscale with many fancy people. We are not fancy people, but it was good people watching. I said that this looked like a place where rich celebrities would eat and was told Joe Rogan eats here. So that's cool. Overall a perfect evening.
We try to dine here every time we are in Austin, and we
We try to dine here every time we are in Austin, and we have never been disappointed. The vibe, the service and the selection of foods and wines are some of the best we have ever enjoyed.But the food is the real reason we visit as often as we can The apps, mains and sides are all unique and outstanding, there is nothing pedestrian about J.'s food even though he describes it as comfort food. It is much more than that.A special Kudos to our server, Geena Davis, who guided us through new selections (we didn't want to have the same things again) and they actually keep track of these things. And her knowledge of their impressive select wine offerings, shows the staff is well-trained.
This steakhouse is a must-try if you're in Austin! Valet
This steakhouse is a must-try if you're in Austin! Valet parking is available for $12 (and they do accept credit card). If you have a 5pm reservation, just remember that they open at 5pm sharp, so depending on the weather/your parking situation, plan accordingly.The ambiance is dark and moody, with the interior very old-school speakeasy meets diner vibes. I love that you walk thru a set of black out curtains from the outside door and are transported to this "hidden" dining experience.The food and drinks were overall good, but didn't necessarily wow me. I've had better steak and drinks at other steakhouses, but the pricing on everything is very reasonable. My favorite part of the dining experience was being able to choose the steak knife. It adds a personal touch to the meal and added to the fun, unique experience.Service was also good, and I especially liked one of our waiters, who was a comedic genius.I would definitely recommend this steakhouse for a more casual, laid back experience than your typical steakhouse. Also, in case you didn't know, this restaurant is a sister restaurant to Red Ash (in Austin).
The service is exquisite.
J Carver's food, service and ambiance are above bar in every way. J Carver's has become my go to steak and dining restaurant in Austin. I am going to leave the review as such because nothing more needs to be said.
Amazing food and service.
We ordered bone marrow (first time trying and omg paired with that bread GIVE ME MORE), oysters (east coast and fabulous.. horseradish was holy cow spicy.. a teeny bit goes a long way), filet on the bone (delicious melt in your mouth), crab fried rice (my personal favorite), mashed potatoes (creamy yet had small lumps which we liked), and asparagus (truffle yummo). We were celebrating a birthday so the waiter gave us a dessert on the house. It was ice cream with merengues in between.. it was light and perfect after a pretty big meal. Also fun tip, if you're celebrating a birthday, let them know! We got a hand written birthday card and the entire staff signed it. Definitely adding this to our list of "we will come back".

Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!

As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.

Last Reply by 👻 @EnjoyableJelly34 (11/14/2022 12:34 pm)5 Thumbs Up2 Replys, 0 commentsWhose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!

Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.

Best answer by 👻 @HandsomeCollar14 (06/29/2022 11:31 am)4 Thumbs Up7 Answers, 3 commentsWorking on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.

Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Best answer by 🥷🏻 @ColorfulRod45 (09/18/2021 1:07 am)3 Thumbs Up2 Answers, 2 commentsWhere do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
Best answer by 🦩 @FluffyStar64 (07/13/2021 9:05 pm)3 Thumbs Up12 Answers, 2 commentsWhat happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
