If you love steak..this is the place for you! All of us had different cuts and different requests on the cook and each steak was perfectly done. The staff were helpful and personable. Even though we visited on a Wednesday, the place was full and...humming. Really worth a visit but make sure you book first.More

Very cramped seating down the middle of the very tiny restaurant. Felt more like a cafeteria, noisy, fast, food was good but not exceptional for such a high price.

Just wonderful food if you really appreciate well cooked beef and veggies. The deserts were also amazing. Friendly and helpful staff, a great night. A real experience .

This restaurant will not disappoint. The signature dishes are their cuts of meat. We had the eye fillet and it was perfectly cooked medium/rare. The accompanying potato gratin was just as good as the steak. We had the rocket salad and sweet potato as sides...and they complemented the steak beautifully. To begin with we tried the kingfish shashimi and pork belly...both divine. Excellent service. Highly recommended.More

We ordered the small 180 gm eye filet ($53) and the larger 300 gm one ($75) and both arrived perfectly medium rare and absolutely delicious. The accompanying potato galette was very tender and tasty. The rocket salad ($12) was great as well. The White Russian...cocktail ($24) was lovely. Now the wine. Since Tassie reds are lighter than we like when having a beautiful steak we opted for a McLaren Vale South Australia Syrah that we had never had, the Ochoa Barrels Syrah ($78). It was the most insipid, foul tasting wine we have ordered in recent memory. Not that we order wine based on alcohol content, but this wine was 11.3%. Ridiculous for a McLaren Vale Syrah/Shiraz. Whoever selected this wine for the wine list must not have tasted it or maybe tasted it after a dozen other wines which caused non-working taste buds. The service was friendly and efficient. The thumping techno music was a bit off-putting but once the place filled up with people it was slightly less annoying. The food and service are the stars here.More

Beautiful meal. Busy night on a public holiday. Not much else open in Launceston. Had been longing to go to Black Cow, it did not disappoint. Service was excellent. Food sensational. Steak cooked absolutely perfectly. Waiter chose my Tassie Gin and picked my favourite.

We were at a loss for dinner on Australia Day and tempted fate with a walk in to this excellent restaurant, luck was on our side and after a very short wait we were seated. Service was excellent and our waitress was charming and knowledgeable....We started with the home made bread and the King Fish Sashimi which were both excellent. Andrew ordered the 400gm Porterhouse and I had the 180gm Eye Fillet. Both were exceptionally tender and tasty. The potato gratin on the side just as delicious. In the side we ordered the Broccolini and the rocket salad which were a great partner. Drinks were good, the Sober Mule for me and Andrew had the Pinot Noir which he said was the perfect pair to the steak. Great music played as we sounded and a nice buzz in the restaurant made it a great evening. Many thanks to the team at the Black Cow Bistro.More

I received a lovely warm welcome from the host on arrival and managed to squeeze a lonely diner in for a solo meal. The reputation for this restaurant is steak and I was not disappointed with my sirloin cooked perfectly as requested (rare to medium)...with cafe d Paris butter and matched beautifully with a glass of Cabernet. Of course there is always room for dessert and the frozen caramel slice was delicious. The host also discreetly placed some magazines on the table for me to peruse which was a lovely attention to detail to a solo diner.More

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience tonight at the Black Cow Bistro. The wait staff were incredibly helpful and delightful to talk to and the steak was cooked to perfection.

Excellent Service, food was delicious, incomparable to anything I have had before. Super busy, always a good sign!! Loved it!!

Excellent service, very attentive and well-trained staff! We felt like we were the only people in the room, as staff tended to us expertly. The food was delicious, but service made it even better!

Booked in because it got pretty good reviews and was open in a Monday night. Online booking was a breeze. These guys know meat, how to cook it, season it and present it. Our knives slipped through our steaks like a surgeon on their best...day. I started with the scallops which are very delicious. For our main it was the scotch fillet for my wife and porterhouse for myself. Beautifully cooked and rested. The flavours divine, my potato gratin was not touched as I enjoyed my 400g of pure deliciousness. My wife devoured her gratin and loved every bit of her 180g scotch fillet. Both of us drank Argentine Malbec as a commemorative gesture to last evenings football World Cup victory. Service was exceptional and I tipped accordingly. Loved it! Highly recommend Black Cow✅✅✅✅✅More
