In a city that keeps time in songs, handshakes, and one-more-round decisions, The Driskill Grill is where the evening finds its spark. Settle into the iconic Driskill Bar for crafted cocktails and Texas character, then follow the glow to The Driskill Grill for dry-aged steaks, chilled martinis, old-world service, and the grandeur of one of Austin’s most storied dining rooms.
For nearly 140 years, The Driskill has been Austin’s original stage for visionaries — a landmark where plans are hatched, toasts are raised, and new chapters begin. The Driskill Grill carries that legacy to the table with a classic hotel bar beloved by generations of Austinites and a reimagined American steakhouse shaped for today. It is warm, magnetic, and unmistakably Austin: a place to gather before dinner, linger after, and collect a story of your own.
The Driskill Bar has long held its place in the city’s social fabric: after-work drinks, long conversations, a cocktail before dinner, and the soft buzz of downtown Austin unfolding around you. Reimagined alongside The Driskill Grill, The Driskill Bar returns with the same enduring spirit — crafted cocktails, cold beer, small plates, and a seat at the iconic hexagonal bar for anyone who knows the best nights rarely rush.
Since 1886, The Driskill has stood at the heart of Austin’s story. The Driskill Grill brings that heritage back to the table as a classic American steakhouse reimagined by MML Hospitality, with creative direction from MML Chef April Bloomfield and a bold new vision from Executive Chef Nick Erven. Dry-aged steaks, fresh seafood, chilled martinis, and old-world service meet the timeless grandeur of a room built for occasion.
Come for a business lunch, a celebratory dinner, or an evening that begins with one cocktail and becomes something larger. The Driskill Grill is The Driskill at its most magnetic: iconic without spectacle, grand without pretense, warm with Texas character, and buzzing with the energy of a room where Austin’s past and future share the same table.
