Came here for dinner and the atmosphere was beautiful. The server was fantastic and took great care of us. Food came out very timely and everything was delicious. The prime rib was cooked medium rare, redfish was nice and flaky, and chicken fried steak was crispy edges. Fantastic addition to the restaurants at the domain! read more

Ordered a few appetizers and the only one worth getting again was the fried shrimp. It was crispy and delicious. The hard shell min elk tacos were very basic and lacked seasoning. I'd compare them to a Taco Bell hard shell taco, except a little worse. The lump crab mushroom dip was very salty and it was mostly mushroom with little crab. The glassware was very cheap and dishes served with paper napkins. The waygu tomahawk was very underwhelming and also lacked seasoning. It was cooked medium rare as requested, but for $150 I was expecting much better flavor and a better presentation since it's their signature dish. The sides that came with the entrees were all below expectations. The mac and cheese was as good as a box of Kraft mac. The brussel sprouts basically came out of an air fryer. They really needed a char and some caramel glaze. String beans were also basic. The pecan pie was gooey, rich, and delicious with the ice cream. Though they went pretty skimpy on the ice cream. The bathrooms were nice. They're clean, individual rooms with a nice scent. Outside of bathroom stalls is a shared wash station. One thing I can't stand is gratuity auto-applied for parties and servers still trying to hustle an extra 20%. With so many better options in the Domain area, I won't be back here since the only thing I would order is a glass of wine from their nice wine selection and a slice of pie. read more

I was lucky enough to be invited to the soft opening of Sixty Vine (sister restaurant to Haywire) where I found out Haywire was opening. I've been anxiously waiting, and it was so worth it the wait. The hostess was super sweet and welcoming, and the wait time was short. We got seated in an awesome spot with a perfect view of the hidden speakeasy tucked behind a bookshelf--such a cool touch! Our waiter was incredibly friendly and attentive the entire time. They surprised us with a complimentary order of Branded Iron onion rings and WOW--they were delicious. We ordered the mini tacos, the chipotle meatloaf, and the double cheeseburger--every single dish was packed with flavor. We paired it all with their three Old Fashions and the Guava Jalapeño Margarita (spicy and perfect). The cherry on top? Our waiter took us on a little tour of the whole place so we could really experience the full concept. The design, the vibes, the food, the drinks--everything was on point. Can't wait to come back! read more

Had a great experience with Izzy at the bar. He was very attentive and friendly with outstanding service and recommendations. Nice interior decor in the restaurant with an upstairs bar thats about to open for a more intimate setting. Food was delicous with just the right amount of spice and heat on both dishes (Elk tacos and ceviche). Had a good selection of cocktails/wines that paired perfectly with the meal. Would go back for another round especially to check out the bar upstairs. read more

Salad was great, the grilled citrus marinated chicken that comes on it was fantastic. The right amount of t of seasoning and the zest to pair with a fresh salad. The bar seating wraps around the bar so there is always a slot for someone to catch up and chat with a friend (depending on the time of day) service was quick during the early lunch hour on the weekday that I came in. The rustic frontier style theme restaurant is warm and cozy with plenty of dark seating read more

Wow. Wow. Wow. That's all I can say. The drinks? Amazing. The food? Oh my goodness, it couldn't get any better. The service? Spectacular. The ambiance? So cool. This place was recommended to us by a local, so you know it's good....and apparently had only been open for a month or so. Run, dont walk, to try this place! It was spectacular, and we were able to get a tour of the private rooms. They were mind blowing, with a speakeasy type vibe!! I only wish my group knew to reserve these spaces. This is the perfect place if you want amazing food, amazing service, and a vibe that can't be outdone. One month open, and I am certain this place will be a staple for the Austin area. Thanks for an amazing experience all the way around! read more

What a great spot! Food was all delicious and fresh. Really loved the drink options, including the wine list. The space is HUGE and really nicely decorated. All of the staff were very friendly and attentive. It was a great experience for brunch and we cannot wait to go back for lunch/dinner! read more

Great food and service. A must try if you haven't been . The drinks are really tasty.

This has become my new favorite in Austin. We've dined in a few times and ordered from them Friday night. The food is outstanding and reasonably priced. We always sit at the bar when we dine in because the bartender is fabulous! Lovely ambiance and a must try if you're looking for great food. read more

I hate leaving a bad review, but this is by far the worst experience I'd had. The food was awesome, but the service at the bar was awful. We were there early so our party of 8 tried to get some drinks at the bar. The bartender blatantly ignored us. It took him a good 15 minutes before he acknowledged our presence even though he had plenty of opportunities to do so. He made me feel like we were not welcomed and ignored. He even had the audacity to roll his eyes at me when I went back and asked for a water refill. Our party all noticed the eyes rolling as well. I feel bad because I was the one making the recommendation to my team to go here for our team dinner. We ordered two Cowboy Feasts and the pork chops were all wonderful! The appetizers were amazing! Wine selection was great too! read more

The steak was amazing, great flavor and tenderness, but the Mac and cheese was flavorful but the noodles were kind of undercooked. The Brussels Sprouts were amazing and the corn pretty was pretty tasty. The smoke old fashioned was very good and the manhattan was one of the best ones I have ever had. I sat the bar and the service was phenomenal and bartender was very attentive to me. Ambiance this place is amazing, and if you have family and friends who never been to Texas...you must take them here. I would have given it 5 stars if the Mac and Cheese was done correctly. read more

First and most importantly... all of the food didn't just sound good, it had great flavor. Too many restaurants recently have popped up with nice sounding menus, ideal for instagram, but ... suck. Everything was legit great, so happy to have a good food place in the domain. Less important but a factor... ambiance and service. Both were great. Venue is beautiful inside. Our server and others that helped were super friendly. Oh I guess one negative, the queso was a bit bland and runny. All else was awesome. Corn bread side was perfection. read more

Sunday evening, 5 people, drinks did take longer than should have, white queso was great, props for using tallow to fry the chips, they were good. Next up elk tacos, tasted good, but we're pretty much room temperature. Ordered two prime rib dinners, this is where the bottom fell out. Both orders were NOT freshly cut and were dry as shit, ordered them med rare, both were more than well done, did I mention dry as hell. And that glop you try to pass off as au jus???, it was powdered from a can and the "cook" can't read the mixing directions. Quite possibly the worst dinner of my life. Ps. The breading falls right off of the chicken fried steak. Oh and the side of Brussels sprouts contained maybe 4 or 5 pieces of identifiable brussels and the dish was also only room temp. read more

Didn't have a reservation but plenty of room at the bar. Ordered the cheeseburger and fries which was really good. Would recommend if looking for good American food such as ribs, meatloaf, etc. Restaurant also has full bar with mimosa flight, beer, wine and various higher end whiskeys. Will definitely be returning to try some of the higher end whiskey on the shelf. If in the la canters area highly recommend this restaurant. read more

The place looks great and great for social events. Beatrize was super nice and gave us the full tour of the place. The food was meh as the ceviche was okay but not very good. The stripe bass was too salty. The Wagyu Pastrami sandwich was fine. The Chocolate cake and the French press coffee was the highlight for me along with the tour. Great place for socials but sadly the food won't bring me back. read more

After two disappointing prior experiences, the third time was the charm! My party and I were greeted by Josh at the host stand who was wonderful and very accommodating. We had some notes on our reservation and he went above and beyond to make sure we were set up and taken care of! Our server Darun was incredible! He was informative, personable, engaging and gave great feedback. He truly made the experience above and beyond and it completely smoothed over any negative experience in the past! As for the food, we got the ceviche, pork belly bites, and onion rings to start. For entrees we got the farmhouse bowl, redfish, 12oz NY Strip, Chicken fried steak and ribs! Everything was delicious and wonderfully seasoned. Overall, we were able to sit in a nice, private room and enjoy each other's company with great service and full bellies! Thank you Josh and Darun for making our night so wonderful! read more

Dre the Bartender at the Bar downstairs is AMAZING!!! He had my sister and I try the Kolaches with Queso and The Shrimp for starters. Then he told us about the Chicken and Waffles (TX HOT STYLE) and Brussels. My sister, Friend and I throughly enjoyed hanging out the bar! He had the best personality, energy, recommendations and service. HE DESERVES A 100 dollar raise LOL!! If y'all come in sit downstairs at the bar and ask for DRE!!

First things first, I loved this place! I was in Austin didn't have any dinner plans for my birthday and since it was so last minute, Haywire had availability. The ambiance inside was spectacular. Dimmed lights, gives you the ultimate western style how the servers looked. One thing I sill say, we sat a long table with a bench was ultimately super comfortable. Our waiter was super welcoming, helpful also. We started off with the "Chef's Favorite 4". What all included was some Mini Elk Tacos, Onion rings, fried green tomatoes, and a queso blanco. Each came with a sauce to dip in, amazing. The appetizer was amazing great started besides the green tomatoes. Not a fan due to it lacking in flavor plus not crispy enough to my liking. We also went for their Crispy Pork Belly. Packed with flavors, a kick with it. Very tasty. Moving onto my entree. I began with a New York Strip, I had their whipped potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and cornbread. My favorite side was the Brussels sprouts, once again a little kick to it and it had that sweet and savory taste to it. My steak was cooked beautifully. My drink I got their "Free Spirited" the Lady Bird, super refreshing. Lastly, I had a complimentary dessert for my birthday. Their "Whiskey Bread Pudding" it was topped off with some ice cream. I had such an amazing time, enjoyed everything and exceeded my expectations. I can't wait to return! read more

My business partner and I met here to share a holiday meal. They lost our reservation but were still kind enough to seat us. We had the appetizer sampler. The elk tacos and the queso were both ice cold. We had both heard good things about the pork chop but they were both refrigerator cold when served....not cold as in sat too long...cold as in came from the refrigerator. Services was extremely slow. I know they had a large corporate event upstairs but it was obvious this kitchen is not setup to handle 'the busy season'. In the end the manager comped our meal which we did not request or want...we simply wanted our feedback to be heard. When they're quick to comp to me means our feedback wasn't really heard. I doubt either of us will return. read more

I've eaten here twice and really enjoyed the food both times. The atmosphere is super fun, very TEXAS but with a glam POV. So many chandaliers - but also cowhide covered chairs. Love the decor. The first visit the staff was DECKED OUT - everyone had cowboy hats and boots on which added to the fun. A couple months later, I did see cowboy boots on people, but not the level of commitment to the theme I saw my first visit. The food is upscale New American via Texas and I really lived for the BRUNCH. The french toast was just next level and I have to have it again soon! All of our food was high quality and the menu has so many great options. The cornbread is a must try! read more

Searched for a nice spot to have anniversary dinner with my hubby and decided to make reservations at Haywire. After parking in the Domain's Red Garage we walked a couple of blocks to the restaurant, scoping out other shopping and dinning spots along the way. It was a nice, short walk. We checked in and waited about 5 minutes before being seated. We got a nice cozy booth on the veranda which had better lighting and less noise than the main dinning area. We just missed happy hour which ended at 6 pm. We ordered cocktails, fried green tomatoes and corn bread for starters. What a great beginning! The green tomatoes were firm with a crispy crust and tasty sauce. Corn bread was slightly sweet and decadent, almost dessert like. Drinks were on point! For our mains we had the steak salad and chicken fried steak plate. My husband said the crust on the steak was perfectly crisp and tasted like his favorite fried chicken. My salad was nicely dressed and the steak was cooked to order. We finished with a bread pudding topped with whiskey sauce and a scoop of ice cream. Heavenly! From start to finish the service was friendly and efficient without feeling rushed. It was nice to take our time and savor our meal and enjoy the experience. We could have chosen an ultra posh spot for our special day but I'm glad we chose Haywire because it was perfect. Top notch food, classy comfortable environment with fabulous service. We couldn't have asked for more! read more

Food was great and it has an amazing location at the domain. Vibes were nice but our server was a little odd - asking us where we lived and too many weird personal questions. Outside of THAT, it was good and would go back..as long as we didn't have the same server. read more

This was my second time at Haywire Domain and I loved it! We celebrated my friend lastnight and the service was perfect. The hostess was very nice and recommended great dishes on the menu. The queso blanco was great (add the elk meat for $1, it's worth it). My redfish was delicious and my friend's baby back ribs were so good. If you're looking for a quieter place in the restaurant, I recommend asking for the back room. Vibe is comfy with great lighting! Highly recommend for delicious southern comfort food! read more

Stopped in recently and had a great experience all around. The space has a modern Texas cowboy vibe--nothing cheesy, just warm wood, soft lighting, and a kind of rustic-polished look that feels cool without trying too hard. I ordered the steak salad, and it was really good. The steak was cooked perfectly, juicy with just the right char. The salad itself had a great mix of textures--fresh greens, roasted corn, little crispy bites, and crumbled cheese. Everything tasted fresh and well put together. To drink, I went with the bourbon smash. It came out looking like summer in a glass--mint, blackberry, crushed ice. Super refreshing and balanced, not too sweet. Our server was new--actually her last day of training--but she handled everything like a pro. I didn't catch her name, but she was friendly, attentive, and seemed genuinely excited to be there. Definitely a spot I'd go back to. Solid food, great drinks, chill atmosphere read more

First-time visitor and I was really excited to try this restaurant. The first hostess we encountered was wonderful, though our actual waitress was very bland and lacked engagement. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great. Things became a bit stressful when our reservation was somehow canceled, but the staff member who checked us in was kind enough to accommodate us despite the restaurant being extremely busy due to the holidays. We were very grateful, especially since we were celebrating my birthday. Unfortunately, there was an incident with a waiter from the table behind us who elbowed one of our friends. If it had happened once, it might have been understandable, but it happened a second time. Both apologies felt insincere, and the second incident could have easily been avoided by simply going around instead of squeezing between patrons. The General Manager did come over to apologize and generously comped our meal, which we truly appreciated--even though we were prepared to pay. I commend her professionalism and handling of the situation. That said, there may be a need for additional training on how waitstaff should navigate tight spaces and handle incidents like this appropriately. We're still unsure why it happened a second time. Overall, despite the hiccups, we would return because the food was truly great. read more

Haywire - Cheesecake with a berry compote - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Had a reservation for 4 at 8:45pm on a Friday. Checked in at our reservation time but was informed that our table wasn't ready. I went back to the host at 9pm and they admitted they forgot we were waiting but sat us immediately after that. It took awhile before the waiter checked in with us, but we had our drink and appetizer order ready when he did. We ordered the Chef's 4 appetizer. He told us that it only comes with 2 tacos so we could add 1 taco to it if we liked. We asked to add 2 tacos since there are 4 of us and he told us that he could only add 1. Weird, but ok. He came back shortly and said they ran out of onion rings. We picked other appetizers instead and he said he would take off one from the bill. We thought that was a nice offer since our impression of Haywire wasn't stellar so far. We ordered our entrees plus 2 of us ordered a chili and Caesar "to start". The kitchen seemed backed up and it took a long time to get our dinners. All entrees and the chili and Caesar all came out together which was a little disappointing. The waiter said he didn't realize we wanted those first (sigh). The food was 70% good. The pork chop was very tender, the burger was well seasoned, the fries were yummy, taco appetizer was also excellent. The Caesar was under the heat lamp unfortunately, the catfish was just ok, and the rice bowl needed some editing. I should also note that the menu says adding shrimp to the bowl was $7 but it showed up as $11.95 on the bill. Overall, we will not return. Our expectations of a Rock Rose restaurant is much higher than this restaurant's delivery. read more

DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!! First off reservation were at 4:30 and at 4:50 I asked the hostess and was told we would receive a text when our table was ready. When I explained it was 20 Mins after our reservation and we were going to a play at 7::30 I was told we are sorry we will try to get you a table soon. Once seat it took over 10 mins to be greeted and then was told our sever Kyle was walking into the building and would be with us shortly but she'd get our drinks. (5pm by this time) at 5:10 stilll no drinks she told us she was waiting for clean water bottles and apologized for Kyle being late. When I explained we were headed to A play and would like to order and took it without writing it down...unfortunately it was wrong. They had my husband's salad wrong and we had to ask did the fries with the burger. Then when picking up the plates they dropped the ketchup on my white sweater. The ribs were incredibly dry however the stroganoff and wedge salad were good. I do not recommend this establishment until they address their customer service. I was super excited to try thid place but unfortunately was super disappointed and will not be returning. It's not worth the time or money. Lots of other great restaurants in the area to pick instead. read more

Friend came across Haywire from an IG post where the food looked good so we made a late lunch reservation for Saturday. Haywire is not a small restaurant in size; however, there are not a lot of tables in the dining area so definitely make a reservation. We arrived about 20 minutes early so we had a drink at the bar where we met Dray our bartender. He highly recommended the frozen margarita and frozen Texas tea and boy are they strong but definitely taste very good! Dray also stated for known red meat eaters he recommended the ribs and the seafood catfish/shrimp. A guest sitting next to us at the bar said the ribs fell off the bone and would definitely order again. Once seated at our table, we decided to share the ribs and seafood. Yes, the ribs almost fell off the bone, the bbq sauce on the ribs was too sweet but the vinegar sauce that comes on the side helps balance. If ordered again would ask for both sauces on the side. Ribs came w/ Mac n cheese that was very salty (wouldn't recommend); however, the asparagus was charred to perfection (please share how y'all do that w/o it tasting burnt)! The seafood plate comes w/ 3 shrimp and 3 grilled catfish filets, lightly seasoned and shareable w/ the whipped potatoes, just add an additional side. I've been to multiple restaurants in the Domain and have to say this is in my top 5! read more

I moved to north Austin 7 months ago and have felt so homesick with the lack of good restaurants around. Problem solved tonight. Hands down BEST FOOD I have had anywhere in TX ...I cover the state for work so I frequent all sorts of places to eat at. I ordered the Red Fish dish...cooked PERFECTLY...sooo juicy inside layer of crisp on outside...the mashed potatoes were so fresh perfect light but creamy. Also had a Midnight Marfa Margarita, it was great tasting and picture perfect presentation. The atmosphere and bartenders also made it a great experience. Honestly, as a foodie moving to a new state and searching....this place is a 10! read more
