BOA Steakhouse

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A West Coast Institution Comes to Austin

BOA Steakhouse has built a reputation across some of America's most discerning dining markets — West Hollywood, Santa Monica, Las Vegas — and its Austin outpost on West 6th Street carries that same standard into the Texas capital. The result is an upscale American steakhouse that takes both its food and its wine seriously enough to earn Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence in 2025, a distinction reserved for restaurants with genuinely deep and well-curated cellars.

The Room and the Experience

BOA Austin sets a clear tone before guests even sit down: proper attire is required, valet is on hand, and the space is designed to deliver what the team calls an elevated experience. This isn't a casual drop-in — it's a dinner destination. The dress code (no athletic wear, no flip flops, nothing excessively casual) signals that the kitchen and floor staff take their craft seriously and expect guests to arrive in the same spirit.

Dinner runs Sunday through Thursday until 10 PM and stretches to 11 PM on weekends, with a happy hour in the bar and lounge Monday through Friday from 4 to 6 PM. One of the more distinctive weekly rituals is Wine Lover's Night every Tuesday, when all bottles are offered at 50% off — a genuine incentive to explore the very wine list that earned the restaurant its Wine Spectator recognition.

Steak, Wine, and the Details That Matter

As an American steakhouse, BOA's identity is built around the quality of its beef and the integrity of its wine program. The Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence underscores that the list goes well beyond a perfunctory selection — it reflects the kind of depth and breadth that serious wine drinkers come specifically to explore. Pair that with the steakhouse format, valet parking, and catering capabilities for private events, and BOA Austin functions equally well as a power dinner venue or a celebratory night out.

For anyone seeking a polished American steakhouse experience in Austin, the address on West 6th is worth knowing.
