Maie Day happy hour is unlike anywhere in Austin! They do 1/2 off cocktails, bottles of wine and many apps/entrees. And it's all so good!! We got the burger, cesaer salad, brussels sprouts and it was all fabulous. It was also surprisingly not that crowded at 6 pm on a Friday! 10/10 will be back

Cinnamon Roll
Samantha J.

We visited Maie Day to celebrate my husband's birthday after hearing great things about their prime rib brunch and wanted to finally give it a try. When we arrived, there was a sweet birthday greeting card on the table, which was such a thoughtful touch to start things off. We had originally thought the prime rib was carved tableside (based on what we'd read before), but it actually comes pre-sliced and cooked from the back--which honestly makes sense for sustainability and consistency in the long run. Our server was friendly, though not the most knowledgeable when it came to menu questions. Instead of checking on the answers, they mostly explained why they didn't know, which left a few curiosities hanging. Now for the food -- the prime rib was absolutely delicious and hands down one of the best deals in Austin at $19 for a 10oz Wagyu. The cinnamon roll was flavorful with fun caramelized edges, but a bit more dense than we prefer (we're team light and fluffy brioche). We also added eggs to our order, but they came out a bit after our steaks and sides -- so the timing was a little off since we wanted to top everything together. Toward the end, our check came before we were offered dessert, and only then did our server mention they meant to bring a complimentary birthday sorbet, which was a bit of a miss on the celebration experience. Overall, we'd definitely come back for that prime rib, but the service and pacing made the visit feel a little less special than we'd hoped for a birthday brunch.

We made it to the happy hour and everything was wonderful. This review is specifically for happy hour menu. $19 for prime rib? Are you kidding me? Food was spectacular, great size for sharing. We ordered the prime rib, wings, the burger, and the brocollini. The portions were huge, literally. Best to go as a group and do family sharing, i'd highly recommend doing that. Staff was very nice, Jackie was our waitress and she was very attentive and helpful. Public parking garage was right there which was convenient. It was great value to go during happy hour. We'll come back!

Chicken Fried Steak
Jennifer C.

Visited Maie Day during happy hour, and stayed for dinner. The grilled oysters were the table favorite, do not miss out on these! For entrées, my favorite was the ribeye cooked to a perfect medium, rare, super tender, and just a delight at every bite! A close runner-up was the chicken fried steak, which the gravy alone was amazing, but was lost a bit when paired with a thickly battered steak. Dessert was a giant slice of chocolate cake. We knew we ordered it to go and had a couple of bites before we left the restaurant and it was a delicious fresh as well as second day from the fridge.

Strip Steak, fries, Mac, and green beans
Jacob D.

Right on South Congress in the heart of things, this "Community Chophouse" is located streetside of the hotel, so parking garage is attached for convenience. The space is truly part of the area in aesthetic and flair. Dusky burnt oranges and wood tones from the decor to the seating. Very approachable for a steakhouse and there's plenty of quality staff on hand for us and our little ones during our visit. The Hits: - loved our cocktails amd mockatails. Lots of regionally inspired flavors and combos to choose from. I was in 2 Peach Old Fashions before I blinked. -the potato rolls and French fries and were simple but textures taste were perfect. - wonderfully cooked Strip Steak. Had the view of the wood fire grill from our table and loved the sear it put on our beef. Fat cap was rendered to almost butter. And the meat itself was rendered an well salted. -green beans were a surprise. Lovely little sauce coated them all evenly and made them so craveable. Few misses - Caesar salad was nice and big but the taste of the dressing wasn't quite doing it for us. If you like tangy this might be for you. -crudo was a bit on the plumpy side, I'm used to small slices. The brine it was served in didn't do enough to justify the dish. Really enjoyed our experience overall here. Our server helped with our toddler a bunch and the food (and drinks) are crafted well!

Ceasar salad

Their happy hour is awesome!!! I cannot remember her name but our server was so kind and helpful. First time here and it did not disappoint! Everything was delicious.

Steak frites

Not a huge fan of this place, won't be returning. Maybe I had high expectations but overall the food was ok. Nothing over the top delicious that's worth coming back. Server was kind and place is spacious!

Darlene B.

I came here for happy hour with my friend Jennie. We found out they have happy hour via online, and it looked like a good deal from what we saw. We came right when they opened at 5pm, the place is very spacious, and the music is pretty loud. We found it a little hard to have a conversation because of how overpowering the music was, almost felt like we were in a club. The food offerings they have for happy hour was pretty limited and we thought they would have good deals for drinks, but even with $2 off cocktails, you're still paying at least $12 per drinks... not really worth it in my opinion. Service was absolutely great!

Cleo P.

Excellent brunch the eggs were so fluffy so tasty. Everything was delicious. French toast had wonderful flavors

Grilled Oysters
Sheryl A.

Great service and ambiance. Parking garage available below restaurant with parking validation provided. Highlights: - prime rib (tender, smokey & juicy) - grilled oysters - Caesar salad was a solid salad. They do go light on the dressing but I prefer that. Next time Ill pass on the beef tartare, grilled chicken and creamed green beans. All were too salty on the seasoning for us.

Anthony M.

They have an awesome $20 Prime Rib special on Friday's. Great service. Live music. Highly recommend.

Chips and Queso
Joseph H.

We went here for a birthday celebration, a total of 8 people including kids. We had a reservation and were seated soon after we arrived. We heard about their famous $20 Prime Rib special on Fridays, so we decided to try this restaurant for the first time. We ordered Chips and Queso for appetizers. The chips are the same kind you would get at Americanized Chinese restaurants when you order soup. We frequently call them "wonton chips," though I'm sure there's an official name for them. They were delicious! I couldn't stop eating them as they reminded me of my childhood. I couldn't try the queso as I'm lactose intolerant, but my family said that it was good. We all ordered prime rib. When it came out, we could see the chef inspect each rib, cutting into each and tasting for quality. It was a fantastic experience to watch him do that in the middle of the restaurant. However, when we tried the rib, we were all very disappointed by how much salt it contained! The rib was tender and flavorful, but I'm sure I ate my entire day's worth of sodium in just a slice of meat. Some of our party couldn't take it and couldn't finish it. They also allow you to order two sides, the mashed potatoes and the broccoli, for $8 each. Both were made with milk products; again, I'm lactose intolerant, so I couldn't eat them. Both sides were also too salty, and the portions were small! If you had small hands and made a cup with your hand, that was how much food you were given, but you were charged $8 for salt... um...I mean for the side. I decided to order a fruit bowl, which, to my surprise, came with strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries. It was a good amount of fruit; I think I paid $4 for it. It was a much better decision than getting an $8 side (salt) dish. The interior was nice, but they had live music inside the restaurant. We were trying to have a conversation, but we were shouting over the band that was playing. The music was good, but come on! It was Friday lunch, not a weekend dinner! Lastly, our server mistakenly thought it was the kid's birthday instead of my adult sister-in-law's. Did you think we would all come out and spend hundreds of dollars at a steak restaurant to celebrate a birthday for a 3-year-old? They gave a free chocolate cake, which was nice, and provided small plates and spoons for everyone at the table. For the owner/chef of Maie Day, note that when people don't finish their food at your restaurant, it's not because they're full. It's because your food is too salty. Maybe to you, your food is good, but with how much salt was in our food that day, it felt like we were tasting the ocean. We won't be back.

Prime rib special
Denise D.

I took myself out to lunch for my birthday at Maie Day for the prime rib special. It did not disappoint! A tender, juicy perfectly cooked prime rib swimming in a bath of au jus! The service was excellent, and We were treated to some fun fiddle music. I highly recommend a Friday lunch at Maie Day!

OK...really...is this place worth the (very) high prices? $25 for a shrimp cocktail? $18 for a slice of chocolate cake?

Yes, the portions are enormous!

Why not put it all together for the best benny I've had in a long time? Just delicious! Lattes were cute and the perfect start to a brunch meal. We added lavender to mine and a little brown sugar flavor to hers. Good stuff! Turkish egg? Yep, exactly what I was thinking. What in the world is that. I don't know if it was a traditional dish but what an explosion of flavor. Put it all together on a perfectly toasted piece of bread and bam! Perfect accompaniment to a perfect brunch. Last but not least the Salmon Gravlax. Looks simple but by no means did it taste simple. Caviar on a buttery spread. Spicy pickles, perfectly cooked egg, seasoned tomatoes, rye bread. None of these are special in themselves but when combined, yes! Amazingness! Oh and the service? Wonderful! Attentive, kind, knowledgeable and welcoming. Space? Super cute! Felt like we were in a vacation town somewhere in Florida. Very retro, cool. Loved everything about this place. Zero complaints. Millions of compliments. Highly recommend!
