    I really wanted to love Haywire but it was unfortunately a disappointing experience. I was visiting SATX and saw the Cowgirl Dinner advertised heavily on social media, so I was eager to try it and the $30 price made it even more intriguing. Unfortunately it fell flat of expectations and the photos and our very sweet server and hostesses were the only redeeming parts. Starting with the ambience, upon arriving to our reservation for 8:30, we ended up waiting another 30 minutes until we were seated after many other parties. I understand that things can get busy with walk-ins but it was a bit frustrating to stand waiting until the limited lobby seating opened up for us to then wait another 20 minutes for a table we reserved to finally open up. The restaurant is very aesthetically pleasing and the chandeliers and beautiful booth seating plus the partially-open kitchen setup is nice to look at however, and I can see why this spot is appealing as a girls night out dinner spot. The hostesses were very sweet and our server was kind as well, which made the experience better. However, the Cowgirl Dinner was disappointing and I would have preferred to pay double for a decent meal. The steak was very dry and bland, and I don't know that it was seasoned at all. The salad was also somehow dry and felt stale, and the fries were fine but nothing extraordinary. We also got a mac & cheese on the side to split which was also oddly bland and watery. I desperately wanted to enjoy this meal but it really just fell flat. I would recommend Texas Roadhouse before I would probably go here again unfortunately, and it may just be the Cowgirl Dinner specifically which is not the best, since I have not been here before. Although it photographed beautifully, it unfortunately was not as great as the videos made it seem.

    OH Cowgirl Dinner, you were so devine! You CANNOT beat their amazing March deal which scores you a 5 oz steak with roasted garlic butter, tallow fries, side classic caesar salad and a dirty martini or lemon drop martini! Just WOW! All that for $30! Everything that was there was delicious and their caesar salad was something else! Much different flavor combinations than other places that I've had elsewhere! Came for "dinner" during lunch hour and it was just so perfect as it wasn't super busy that we basically had a giant table just for ourselves! Including my wild toddler who decided to not eat except for fries, ha! Our server was amazing and was on par with making sure we had everything we needed! Also, they had kids menu with crayons and a coloring sheet with menu included. The aesthetic of this place over all was giving country modern, it very much a vibe!! Restaurant itself was very kid friendly, thankfully! Parking: usual mall parking but since going on a weekday, it was definitely easier than weekend parking. Would love to come back and try more offerings!!

    My wife and I went on a date here and got steaks. I will say the steak was perfectly cooked as I wanted it, and had a great sear on the outside and medium on the inside. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because of a few issues. The first issue is that my wife and I had a reservation and still had to wait close to 30 minutes to be seated. I'd understand maybe 10 minutes or less, but a 30 minute wait with a reservation felt too long. The other reason I did not give it a 5 star is because of the fries. They were sitting ready to be taken to the customers in the kitchen, and we got some that tasted like they were sitting for too long and were stale and not that great since they were not fresh. The third issue was that we bought a bottle of wine, a bubbly one, and it was hot, so the first pour was not that great. But once it was in the ice, it tasted much better. Overall, this place is great, awesome on the inside, it just had a few issues that made the experience less than spectacular.

    I made reservations at Haywire for the first time to celebrate my birthday. I was looking for somewhere new to try and after a little searching I landed on Haywire--and I'm so glad I did. First off, this place is a total showstopper. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere just grabs you. It feels upscale and polished but still has that warm Texas charm. The design, the vibe, everything about it makes it feel like a special place. We had an amazing experience, and the sweet young lady who took care of us all night was fantastic. Every recommendation she gave us was spot on. We started with drinks and their meat and cheese board. My husband ordered the Haywire Old Fashioned (Texas pour) and said it was one of the best he's had in a long time--he ended up ordering three, so that should tell you everything you need to know. I don't drink alcohol, so I was excited to see they had mocktails on the menu--and not just as an afterthought. I ordered the Mojito Refresher and wow... it was incredibly refreshing and easily one of the most enjoyable mocktails I've had anywhere. For dinner my husband ordered the Cowboy Ribeye with shrimp and tallow fries. It came out perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and looked absolutely mouthwatering. I ordered the redfish and I'm so glad I did. It was light, fresh, and beautifully prepared--honestly the kind of dish you keep thinking about after the meal is over. I really wish we had a place as nice and upscale as Haywire on the northeast side of San Antonio, but this spot was absolutely worth dealing with the traffic. If you plan to go, definitely make reservations. We went on a Tuesday and by 6 PM the place was filling up fast with people waiting out the door. This is exactly what a Texas restaurant should look and feel like. We will definitely be back.

    Update: I came back the next day to meet another niece of mine and this time I ordered the fish tacos and they did disappoint (cry emoji here). There was something missing.... I asked for lemon to see if it helped but no that didn't satisfy my taste buds. I think I'll stick to the steak and the Chicken BLT sandwich Haywire never disappoints--I love this place! My niece was in town, my boys were starving ( like always) and I was ready for some really good food--not fast food, but something worth slowing down and enjoying. Haywire was the perfect excuse and If you read my other reviews I'm not a big fan of long waits so we came at the perfect time; LUNCH TIME! Thankfully it wasn't busy, so we were seated right away. I ordered the chicken sandwich, and it was really good. The chicken was cooked perfectly, the bacon had that perfect crisp, and I loved the fresh arugula--it all came together so well, especially with the fries on the side. I only finished half, but honestly, I was excited to have the rest later for dinner My niece went with the meatloaf, and the boys had cheeseburgers--everyone loved their meals. It was one of those simple, satisfying outings where everyone leaves full and happy. Haywire, I can't wait to come back again and try something new.

    Frozen margarita

    One of my favorite restaurants in San Antonio! We went during happy hour and it was perfect. The frozen margarita was delicious and honestly made me tipsy with just one! I also got the farmhouse bowl and that was yummy. Overall, great service and always happy to spend some time here.

    We came here to celebrate our daughter's birthday, my first time here. W we made reservations as we had 11 in our group. I was very impressed with the restaurant and our server. We ordered the Queso Blanco as starter which we all throughly enjoyed. I ordered a Midnight in Marfa Margarita to drink which was very smooth and refreshing. My wife ordered the Struped Bass which she really enjoyed and I ordered the Chicken Fried Steak which was excellent. For dessert my wife and I split the Whiskey Bread Pudding which was warm and magnificent. Some would say they have a limited menu, but they are very good at what is on the menu. Everyone was very happy and 1 grandson said they made the best hamburger.

    Cowgirl $30 Dinner (5oz steak, Caesar salad, tallow fries)

    My friends and I had such a great time here!! The vibes were awesome the waiter was fun and attentive and the food was so delicious! We were attracted by the cowgirl dinner but we will definitely be coming back another time as well! The fries were so so delicious and their chipotle ranch is SO good. Such a cute place inside and overall a great time.

    Wedge salad with steak (extra)
    Heather J.

    This was an amazing and very laid back, restful lunch with friends. The place is in the La Cantera mall. So, that is not what I knew, so, fair warning. We went there the 2 weeks before Christmas, so parking was a bear, but only because we didnt want to pay for valet. The wine list was extensive. I got a lovely glass of Moscato and hubby got a glass of Riesling. Quite tasty and great with our food! The cocktails, quite generous and tasty. The food came at a great pace! Andres was a fabulous server. He kept up with the pace of our table and everything came on a great time. The crab dip app and onion rings were so tasty. The half rack of ribs with Mac and cheese was fabulous! The catfish was great flaky and tasty. The wedge salad was also very tasty we added steak with an upcharge. The reddish was tasty and subbed the mashed with asparagus. Dessert was yummy and we took the left overs home! I cant wait to come back!

    Big flavors, cooked to perfection, practically dissolves in your mouth it is so tender. Gianni gave the best service I have experienced in a long time. He was knowledgeable and polite. We sat in the airstream, and it was vey comfortable. Music was nice.

    Went here on the weekend. It was my first time. There were lots of parking spaces out front. I didn't have to wait long for a very spacious seat inside. Service was good, and the food was delicious. I didn't get any drinks, but I enjoyed it so much that I went back the next day. I did make a reservation online, but it wasn't busy when I arrived both times. It did pick up after. On the first visit, I was closer to the kitchen and the wine stand. On the second, I was closer to the Xmas tree in the middle with the booth-like seats, which were very comfortable, by the way. The burger was good, and so was the salad, so fresh and delicious. I really enjoyed everything

    Pineapple mojito mocktail
    Kristen A.

    Went here for a date night on Saturday, arrived around 5pm and only had to wait about 10-15 minutes. The decor is amazing, there is always something new to look at. I love the candlelit tables. The food was amazing! I got the redfish (not pictured) sooo tender, well seasoned, and the shrimp & lump crab on top were so perfect. The asparagus with the lemon butter sauce was delicious. My fiance also loved his chicken fried steak. Our only complaint was the veggies needed a tad more salt, but that's no big deal. The pineapple mojito mocktail was very refreshing. Our server, Tatiana, was great and made wonderful recommendations. She's the reason I got the redfish! We will definitely be back.

    I had my birthday dinner at Haywire and it was my husband and my first time here. Upon entering I was blown away by the amount of beautiful chandeliers hanging in the main dining area. The restaurant was a full house, understandably. Haywire is a fairly new hot spot with all the upscale cowboy/western vibes; from beautiful and tasteful "Cowboy" artwork and aesthetic throughout the restaurant, and most of the staff wearing cowboy hats! Very pleasant experience! What we ordered: pork belly bites and fried green tomatoes (to start), pork ribs and rib eye steak for our main entrees. Our sides: Brussels sprouts, green beans, Mac & cheese, and chimichurri rice. Everything was absolutely delicious. I personally would have preferred the Brussels and fried green tomatoes cooked a little longer with less of a crunch but they were still very flavorful. They brought me their whiskey bread pudding for my bday dessert and they made it seem like it was on the house, but it wasn't lol. Still enjoyed it and highly! Highly! recommend it!! Overall, great service and great experience! Definitely returning because we heard the pork chop at haywire is better than Perry's iykyk lol

    If you're looking for a place that feels less like a restaurant and more like you just walked into…read moresomebody's home after church on a Sunday... this is it. From the moment we stepped into 6 Klicks Cafe, the vibe was immediate--warm, welcoming, and real. Not forced, not corporate. Just genuine energy. The kind of place where you already know you're about to eat good before you even see the menu. The Food I ordered the grilled chicken marsala, and they didn't just throw it on a plate--they presented it. Everything looked intentional. * Chicken cooked perfectly * Sauce was on point * Mashed potatoes? Had me wanting the recipe after one bite * Green beans with sausage and onion--straight comfort food I also tried the chicken tenders, fries, and Texas toast--everything was done right. Crispy where it needed to be, flavorful across the board. Portion size? Let's be real, it felt like they made the plate for two people. ________________________________________ ‍ Service Service was top-tier. * Greeted immediately * Server knew the menu and helped us decide * Drinks came fast (shoutout to that blackberry tea ) * Food came out in under 10 minutes No waiting, no confusion, no "let me check on that" energy. Just smooth. ________________________________________ Atmosphere This place has identity. It's not trying to be trendy--it's authentic. You can feel the story behind it. Veteran-owned, patriotic, and built with intention. It's the kind of spot where you could sit, eat, and talk for hours without feeling rushed. Family vibe all day. ________________________________________ Price vs Value Not the cheapest--but worth it. When the portions are big, the food is made right, and the experience is solid... the price makes sense. ________________________________________ Final Verdict 10/10 (with no real complaints) This isn't just somewhere you eat. This is somewhere you go when you want real food, real service, and a real atmosphere. I'll definitely be back I'd recommend it without hesitation Not a one-and-done spot--this is a regular rotation type place
