Austin's Grill - Mentor

My teenage son and I were fortunate to find Austin's by chance a year ago in November 2022. We are from the Detroit suburbs, so when we planned our next trip to Mentor for this November, we made a reservation right away. We were just barely rolled into the parking lot before closing time on a Friday night, but we made it and it was everything we hoped it would be. The most friendly and efficient service. Great food. The ribeye cooked just as ordered medium-rare. The orange roughy with crabmeat stuffing was excellent. The chocolate cake amazing. It will probably be another year before we return, but will be the first place we go when we roll into town.

Have eaten here before but this time I was really disappointed in the quality of the strip steak. The steak was tough, no way was it a Prime cut of beef. Everything else was fine with the meal. Prices are high for what you are getting, I could have gone to a Longhorn and had a better meal for 20% less than what I paid at Austins.

Very disappointed with the food and the service. We will not be going back.

Excellent service. Excellent food and drinks. Some of the best service since Covid19. Thank you.

Food was great....the BEST Caesar salad I've ever tasted. Bookers bourbon was FABULOUS as was the Lina wine. Dinner for two was almost $300 with drinks, and desserts extra side dishes so when we asked to buy the bourbon glass we were using as an Anniversary momento the manager wouldn't sell it to us, that was disappointing. Manager said people keep stealing their glasses (not sure why he wouldn't sell it to us since we actually asked but whatever). Found the glasses online we will just give the money to someone else. I think this memory will stick with me longer then the food/drink memory about this establishment. ?‍
