Post in austin.food and you'll get plenty of replies.

I ate a very fine steak at the Texas Land & Cattle Co. out north on I-35 a couple of years ago. Unfortunately I can't recommend them because they opened up two places here in San Antonio and they are somewhat less than great.

Dan McCluskey's used to be very good.  Others used to say that Ruth Cris' was good too.  But I haven't been to either in a few years.

I would suggest the following, not in any particular order:

Sullivan's (4th and Colorado)  Call for Reservations, everything is ala carte Ruth's Chris Steakhouse (moved to a new location at 107 West 6th), same thing... Ray Steakhouse (in the old Ruth's Chris location on Guadalupe) Don't know... might be the same type of deal

Also just for fun,I like  UR Cooks, (Corner of Hwy 183 and Burnet Rd, behind the Olive Garden and Bowling Alley buildings)  If you don't mind cookin' it yerself, it can be pretty fun and cheaper than the ones listed above.

Dan Mc Kluskey's is good, and the Texas Land and Cattle Company is middle of the road.  Try posting in austin.food too, you will probably get some other suggestions from my neighbors....

And since you mentioned it, I think I'll head on over to Chuy's for a number 2 enchilada plate....

Good luck, report back and let us know!
