CARVE American Grille - Barton Creek

“So worth going to! The place is a bit pricey, but your getting your monies worth in quality. I had the cheesesticks and lobster cakes are appetizers...oh my goodness they were good! Then I had the chicken and waffles and the syrup has a unique spices flavor to it. Then for dessert I had the Trio! I would try it to get an all around taste of there sweets that they have there. So good! Great place for a date!”

“Always a great choice for date night, celebrations or family gatherings. Their steak made to perfection and the seafood is always fresh. I will always come back for any special occasion!”

“⸻ We had a fantastic experience! Martin was absolutely amazing—so kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely funny. He made the whole evening feel special and took great care of us. The food was just as impressive. The ribeye was cooked perfectly, the wine selection paired beautifully, and the cherry jubilee was an incredible way to end the meal. Highly recommend—great service and great food all around!”

“I tried Carve for the first time with my boyfriend and it was amazing! The steak was tender and delicious, but the mashed potatoes were definitely the highlight. They surprised us with a complimentary dessert trio for our anniversary, and we loved the special touch of rose petals on the table. Our server, Martin, was so helpful and gave great recommendations, he really made our dinner date extra special!”

“Carve is a beautiful restaurant, and I had heard so many great things about it. My son and my husband both had wonderful experiences here in the past, so I was really excited to finally try it. I made a reservation for Thanksgiving, but unfortunately my experience didn’t live up to the expectations. I ordered the Thanksgiving turkey special. The turkey itself had good flavor maybe just a little drybut our server kindly brought extra gravy when I asked, and that did help. The mashed potatoes were delicious. However, the green beans had sliced almonds that tasted rancid, which made that side unpleasant. The meal also came with a salad option (walnuts and apples), and I found it disappointing. It lacked dressing, had too many walnuts, and barely any apple. It just wasn’t enjoyable; I probably should have chosen the soup instead. We also ordered the artichoke dip, which I personally didn’t like at all—I’ve had much better elsewhere. My daughter ordered the prosciutto and fig pizza and didn’t enjoy it either. On the positive side, my husband’s prime rib was very good. Overall, the Thanksgiving dinner felt underwhelming, especially considering how many people around us were leaving most of their turkey plates unfinished as well. The stuffing wasn’t good, though the turkey itself was fine. The restaurant is undeniably pretty and has a great atmosphere, and I do want to highlight that our server (in the bar area) was incredibly attentive and kind. The service was excellent. However, based on the food we had last night, I’m not sure if I would return.”
