    Honey Cracked Goat cheese Beignets and a flight of Reisling!
    Lori C.

    The service was exceptional at the shops at legacy. I wanted a late night flight of wine and a snack on a solo work trip and this met my needs.

    Wine Flight
    Amrita J.

    Had a great time at Cru wine bar. Our server Norman was amazing, entertained us and provided us with great service. He was knowledgeable on the flight selections, and constantly checked in with us. This place is perfect for a low key night, a date night, or just to get a nightcap if you're in the area. It's quaint and has a beautiful interior with the wine bottle wall and they even have a private room in the back for a small gathering with friends or family. They have food that sounds great as well, we already had dinner so didn't try any of it this trip though. Norman also told us about daily specials that they have on Mondays, you can get a bottle of wine and they'll give you a pizza of your choice with it. That's just one of the specials. I got the winter bliss flight which featured 3 wines, from Italy and France I believe. They were all pretty smooth and I enjoyed them. Thanks for an enjoyable wine night Cru! I'll be back

    Super nice ambiance, not loud and they place this nice music. I am amazed that this place exist as the staff is super nice and have a nice variety of wines and food. Drop by an experience for yourself. P.S. please please consider having some sort of flat bread or crackers as an option for the cheese and spreads!!

    Another Restaurant Week find. Husband and I came in early on a Saturday night and got a table in a nice, quiet corner. Restaurant is really trendy-looking and I absolutely love the wine wall! The host and our waiter (sorry, forgot their names) were both very nice and attentive and offered a lot of helpful menu recommendations. Husband and I pretty much ordered one of each on the restaurant week menu: Appetizers - Lobster & Shrimp Potstickers Entrees - Scallops and New York Strip Dessert - Molten Chocolate Cake and Creme Brulee Everything we ordered was delicious and we really enjoyed it. It was a really nice date night and would definitely come back again!

    Like the wine flights as it allows you to try different wines without costing a fortune. I am a Merlot fan so I appreciate that being on the list of flights . Didn't try any food. Heard the pizza is good. The ambiance is perfect, not too loud the service wasn't bad , it wasn't too busy for a Sunday afternoon. Cru is a nice place to people watch. Very comfortable setting. The wines consistently changes based on the seasons. It's well worth a visit and they offer happy hour specials with saving on a bottle of wine.

    Chardonnay flight
    Kinjal S.

    Came for a night cap over the weekend. We sat outside to enjoy the nice weather. I got the Chardonnay flight and liked most of them. Service was fine.

    Tomato mozzarella bruschetta
    Aryelle S.

    Such a great place for happy hour drinks with friends. They have a great outdoor seating area and a lot of space inside. The service was good. We ordered Sauvignon blanc and some apps. I definitely recommend the bruschetta mozz toast. We also ordered the ahi tuna nachos which were horrible. Way too fishy.

    The mood is mid; stick to the wine. My friends and I came for restaurant week, and the atmosphere was nice; our server started off good, but that didn't last long. She kept disappearing, and we had to get up and go get her even though it was slow, so I don't really get that. The food was very bland, my favorite being the lobster and shrimp potstickers. The scallops and risotto were extremely bland, and the chocolate cake and crème brûlée weren't good. Overall, this is my second Cru location with mid-food, so I'm convinced to skip the meals and only order wine.

    We stopped in here while we waited for the drag show. We ordered snacks and a carafe of food. Our server sat us immediately and took our orders. She was really great! The peach Bellini was super strong and didn't seem to have any purée in it. The mini Belgian waffles were light, refreshing, and super good. I decided to try the goat cheese beignets and they were gross. Tried them with the sides and it wasn't much help. I will say the place was very cute and had good music. I would come back to try something else on the menu.

    I have loved this place forever! The food is delicious and they have a great wine selection.

    Cheese Fondue
    Samantha W.

    Such a surprise wow!!!! My fiancé and I live in the neighborhood and have walked by so much and never tried it but today we did and WOW!!! It was such a fun dining experience, we got the cheese fondue and 2 wine flights and it was just so delicious and fun and such an interactive experience. Our waitress Christine was so nice and welcoming and knew so much about the menu and even gave us complimentary goat cheese beignets which were like so good it's crazy!! Such great service and food -- we will be back!

    Lobster bisque
    Krissie K.

    I'm really sad to write this review but what a disappointing Valentine's Day dinner! I was so excited because the pre set menu looked so good! Kitchen was extremely slow too. Bartender and drinks were lovely and she made some great recommendations. Let's talk food--- Lobster bisque very good, small tasting Risotto had little flavor and huge onions Shrimp dish was tasty Filet was slightly over cooked but good flavor Scalloped potatoes also had large unexpected onions Asparagus was ok Lamb was terrible and overcooked Potatoes were bland with no flavor Both desserts chocolate Molten cake and crème brûlée were fantastic! Bottom line the starter and main course were way below average. I would love to go back but not for a major holiday. Stick with the wine and pizza! *no accommodations made either to our $220 bill, not that I expected it.... But for me to get my husband to return.....

    Pan roasted swordfish with heirloom tomatoes.. try it while it last! Heirloom Tomato Fest! AMAZING!!
    Jennifer L.

    Amazing service and fantastic food. We had the Pan roasted swordfish with heirloom tomatoes.. try it while it last! Heirloom Tomato Fest! AMAZING!! The serving was enough for 2, easily! Also had the fig and Gorgonzola bruschetta.. yum! The bread was delicious!

    Absolutely exceptional experience at Haywire in Plano! From the food to the atmosphere, everything…read morewas fantastic, but our waiter, Marcus, truly made the experience stand out. He was phenomenal! He had the perfect sense of humor, was witty and quick with a joke, and knew exactly how to keep the conversation going. He was also incredibly attentive without ever being overbearing. His personality and service made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I started with the fried green tomatoes, which were delicious. For my main course, I ordered the steak and eggs from the brunch menu, and everything was cooked perfectly. The steak was exactly how I ordered it, and the eggs were great. we went upstairs to the third-floor rooftop to drink our dessert! I had the espresso martini, and it was fantastic. The rooftop has great views and is such a fun way to end the meal. Overall, Haywire exceeded expectations. Great food, great atmosphere, an awesome rooftop, and phenomenal service. Marcus deserves a special shoutout because he absolutely made our visit memorable. We will definitely be back!

    Loved everything about this place…read more Except, sitting by the window on the 2nd floor. The reflection off the white wall was blinding. Y'all need blinds or something. I was unable to visit with those across from me because of the reflection. The food and the service were fantastic! I did have to ask for ketchup that did not have the additional strong, smoky flavor added to it. Can't figure out why y'all needed to change the taste of basic ketchup. The fries are freaking fantastic!! Our group was able to enjoy the cowgirl option!! The 5 ounce steak was amazing. The appetizers are fantastic! The cheese board, pork belly bites, and friend green tomatoes are delicious! The double cheeseburger is served with the best fries I've ever had. The drinks are really good! Lemon drop martini, old fashioned, Texas tea, and the $7 Happy Hour drinks are the best! This place is a busy place. We made reservations, however, I'm not sure if you have to have them to eat here.

    Let me start by saying that I always have and always will love Whiskey Cake. If there is one thing…read morethey are, it's "consistent". As expected it was pretty busy when we got there for brunch on a Sunday and were told it'd be a 30min wait for a pay off 2, but thankfully e we were able to find seats at the bar. Because the place was so busy it was a little loud but it was still easy to hear each other as we conversed. The food has yet to disappoint in the last 4 years I've been dining here. The chicken was perfectly fried, my French toast was moist, the deviled eggs were creamy, and the cocktail was delicious. We'll keep dining here and bringing our friends for sure.

    I had my best friend meet me here on Wednesday- Sept 9 for her 50th birthday lunch. I live in…read moreFlowermound and she lives in Forney so I picked a spot in the middle- mind you I've been here MANY many times over the years but she has not. I made a reservation in advance requesting a booth (since it's a tad quieter) so we could visit and have a nice long lunch having driven so far to meet up and celebrate. We were sat at a table - right next to a very large group and it was so loud we couldn't hear anything we said to each other, I asked the hostess why we were sat at a table and no effort was made to rectify the issue. My husband and I have both made reservations and table requests in the past and have never had an issue. The spot is usually held for us. And the hostess did say she saw my request on the reservation- apparently just ignored it. Then came our server. Bless her for trying but serving at a restaurant is NOT her gifting. She was very very slow to arrive (over ten minutes seated before she showed up) and she immediately got my drink order wrong, when I told her she just stared at me and grabbed my drink and came back with the correct one but a lemon and not the lime I requested. When I asked for my lime - she literally walked back with it IN THE PALM OF HER HAND!!! Three different times she removed food or drinks from our table without asking if we were done with them. She was never apologetic or kind when she made a mistake and really seemed very unaware of the "service" job altogether. My friend and I are overly nice to service people. I still tipped her very well! But the lunch was a disaster from start to finish and NOT the first time experience or birthday lunch I hoped to provide for her. We started with the goat cheese appetizer- it was good as always tho a tad too much garlic. My friend got the chicken melt after asking our server several menu questions and not getting clear answers. And I went with the turkey chili but it was too spicy for me so I took it home. The server asked if I'd like some additional chips to take home with it and never brought them. We have long loved Whiskey Cake and this wasn't a good look at all to have my friend as a returning customer. The server who brought out our appetizers was very lovely- and when she stirred the goat cheese for us and got oil everywhere, including on me, she apologized profusely. Mistakes happen- and her response to it was professional and kind. And THAT is the star I'm giving. She gets the star. The rest would be a very sad zero.
