Decided to meet up with a friend for dinner and we decided on Haywire as this would be a new place to try for both of us. Honestly we were surprised by how great the food was. Our server and the experience went well. Our server was prompt, made sure to ask about any allergy info and checked on dishes for us because of my nut allergy. I was really impressed and appreciated the effort to make sure there wasn't cross contamination. We skipped apps and went straight for entres and wine. The wine pour was fair. For entrees, I had the blackened catfish and shrimp. My friend got the stroganoff and was a big fan. Both entrees were generously portioned and came out well seasoned. I wasn't sure about this place but I think I would visit again as a new spot within the Domain. read more

I recently took my wife to Haywire to celebrate her birthday, and we had an excellent dining experience. I reserved our night for the Cowgirl Dinner, which included a 5 oz. steak, Caesar salad, tallow fries, and a lemon drop martini. Additionally, we ordered a side of Cajun corn and finished the meal with bread pudding for dessert. Every dish was exceptionally well-prepared and flavorful. The atmosphere was equally impressive lively, inviting, and enhanced by a charming rustic aesthetic. The drinks were also of high quality and well worth ordering. Overall, Haywire is a restaurant I would highly recommend to others. Make this your next spot! read more

We took our parents here for Christmas Eve and it couldn't have been more perfect. The smell of beef tallow in the air starts making your tummy grumble as soon as you walk in. The atmosphere is classy and Texan all wrapped into one. Wear you boots and hats if you dine here and you will fit right in! ALL of the staff we encountered were super helpful and friendly and after dinner we went on a tour of all the different rooms. This restaurant is much bigger than it seems, so it was fun to explore. The appetizer we chose to start with was fried green tomatoes, and they were the perfect amount of crunchiness- the tomatoe its self was thick and juicy! Between our guests we ate steaks, chicken fried steak, some cocktails and finished with their bread pudding. I for one have never actually gone out to dinner on Christmas Eve, but needed a break from cooking this year. I think this may be a new tradition for us as we were all treated so kindly and the food was 10/10! Must love meat as their fry oil is beef tallow, which I can appreciate for eating healthier. The farm to table claim is exactly that and you can taste the difference. We will be back! read more

What a great addition to The Domain! I had heard great things about this place so we decided to have a girls brunch there. Didn't have reservations for a Saturday around 1230 but only had to wait about 15-20 mins. It's such a cozy den like vibe. Great service and the food was all delicious! We had a table by the window but there wasn't any street noise or concern. Great location by the blue parking garage and a short walk down rock rose if you park in the red garage. Will definitely return as they had many more items I want to try! read more

We visited Haywire around 5:15 on a Friday before catching a concert. I highly recommend making a Rez a few days in advance because they are booking up quickly. We ordered the haywire old fashioned, the caramel rye old fashioned, and we split the chicken fried chicken. Everything was really good. Service was kind of slow, but they were really busy. They also have a pretty bar inside to the right with a decent amount of seating. Not sure I would be running to go back, but we enjoyed our time here. read more

Haywire is solid. There is a good variety here, and nice bar menu. I had the double cheeseburger, which was gooey with cheese. Also tried the fried green tomatoes. Next time I come, will have to try the local meat and cheese board. Looks like it would fill me up witha cold one. read more

Finally got to try HW and it don't disappoint! Drive in from driftwood to celebrate my birthday and ambiance, food, and service were all on point! Located in the Domain, reservations were easy to make. It was bustling and they have an awesome bar if you wanted to just grab a drink. Cocktails were delish and food was also on point. Ceviche was a refreshing starter! We had attentive service the entire time. read more

If you're looking for reasonable prices, a cool vibe, and comfort food in generous shareable portions then Haywire is a great spot for you! Huge onion rings, tasty queso, fried green tomatoes and chicken fried steak (or chicken) are the kind of items that make up their menu. Combine that with a cocktail menu with fun margarita and old fashioned variations and you have a definite winner among the Rock Rose restaurant options! read more

Beautiful, cozy, country classy restaurant. Service was amazing! Food was expertly prepared, tasty, well seasoned and photo worthy. Great cocktails. Presentation on the The Judd cocktail had a really impressive presentation,but disappointing in the taste. The whiskey didn't taste high quality. The Bluebonnet cocktail was very good! We had queso blanco, fried green tomatoes and the lump crab dip for our appetizers. Each dish was really, really good. My prime rib was tender and flavorful. The broccolini was undercooked and tough. My son and daughter in-law had the Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye. It was amazing and cooked to perfection. Their sides were brussels sprouts and Chimichurri Rice. Both were well seasoned and had excellent flavor. I highly recommend the Austin location. Definitely will come back! read more

Came here for a Saturday night birthday dinner- party of 3 of us. We were sat upstairs, at a nice table overlooking Rock Rose Ave. To start- we got the queso as an app, and I ordered a dirty martini, my boyfriend got an old fashioned and my friend a mocktail. I am ridiculously picky about my martinis, and this was perfect. 10/10. The queso was pretty standard- good but not the best I ever had in life. For dinner, I ordered the double smash burger that came with fries and I added on a side of mac and cheese. My boyfriend did the ribs with cornbread and mac and cheese, and my friend the bass. I struggle alot with food prices in this city, and I thought the food was very fairly priced. My burger was $17 and it was a double patty with a ton of fries- very well seasoned as was the beef. My big issue with the burger was the bun. It was too thick for the beef, untoasted and unseasoned. Cold and tasted almost stale. I ended up just eating the burger out of the bun. My boyfriend and I both loved the mac and cheese- soooo filling. Overall food was good and portions were on point, For dessert we had the whiskey bread pudding - DELICIOUS. The best part of the night was our amazing server. I forget her name, but she had red hair and is dating another server there. She was one of the best waitresses I have ever had in my life, and I'd go back just to sit in her section again. Personable, attentive, remembered everything, fast, etc. She is why I gave this review 5 stars instead of 4! We will be back! read more

Haywire is the latest addition to the restaurant scene at the Domain NORTHSIDE on Rock Rose Ave. This is a business formal restaurant with a decor resembling a modern luxury Texan steakhouseanz for the adults. The chairs are made from cowhides, heads of cattle on the walls, and glamorous lighting fixtures. Perfect for business lunches, anniversaries, or to just great cuisine. They have a nice bar scene stocked full of high-end liquor, and recommend one of their Old Fashioneds. All house ingredients are sourced from the great state of Texas. I ordered the Chicken Club and my wife ordered the Smoked Fried Chicken (Wednesday only Daily Plate). It truly had that Texan ambiance and seated near the kitchen. The service was top notch. Both plates looked very presentable and the chicken club tasted very good and had many ingredients all perfected fit well. It was a pretty big sandwich and included tasty Tallow Fries. I tried the fired chicken and the crust was superbly mouthwatering and the chicken had that great smokey flavor. I wished I could eat it all. Best chicken I had in a long while. We definitely will be retuning soon to try other menu items. read more

The interior and exterior of this place is stunning. A beautiful place for dinner or a drink at the bar. Both the service and food were good. I got the chicken fried steak. It came with mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans. The mashed potatoes were PHENOMENAL. Absolutely perfect in texture and flavor. The chicken fried steak was good, but could have been warmer. It tasted better the next day when I heated it up. The green beans were okay, but the peppers and onions were much better. Super tasty. The Frozen Texas Tea was good, but I wouldn't get it again. I prefer for my drinks to be sweeter. read more

Right away, I could tell Haywire is an Austin transplant. It's originally from Dallas with a recent opening at the Domain. Enjoyed our lunch and wish we got to try more things. Personally I love spots that have daily specials. The prime rib steak sandwich was divine. The fries were stale so that was a bummer. 4 stars turned 3 because I noticed we were charged $3.50 for a diet coke we didn't order. We also ordered a caesar salad that never came, but didn't get charged for. So, something is up. This is a place that doesn't show the itemized during checkout, so it was only after when I was in the Uber that I realized. Double check your bill! read more

I've come to Haywire twice now and have really enjoyed their cocktails (special shoutout to the guava margerita). I also really enjoy the intimate western vibes. However, the only vegetarian items on their menu are two salads and I wish they offered more. I understand that this is a meat eater's haven and that beef tallow in their food is part of allure but I'd love if they offered other options as well read more

I am still reeling from the most fantastical dinner we've had in celebration of my husband's birthday tonight. I snagged reservations for the highly anticipated opening of Haywire and they exceeded all expectations in making our night such a fun and fantastic fanfare with celebrating us and taking such good care of us. From the moment we walked in, the hosts were easy in getting us checked in, sat down and we easily got taken care of by Summer, she was such a sweetheart in attending to us and our little one. Got his drink order in, food order in and just knew from the get go how to keep the hustle going without making us feel rushed once, she was such a good wealth of knowledge of the menu, the recommendations and explanation of dishes was also highly appreciated as she explained to us a lot of the dishes origins and backstory which made for such a rewarding meal as we were soaking in how tasty the food was and also, how breathtaking the interior decor of the restaurant experience was. You'll note the main floor is bustling and you can also peek at the open kitchen, we were welcomed to explore the hidden bookshelf room nook along with exploring the second floor to see the panoramic views of rock rose on this rainy day, and we so look forward to returning to dine in the fantastical Texas space that haywire has called home in Austin. Food highlight: Hubs ordered the low and slow chicken entree, and I went with the Texas Redfish, both were excellent in their delivery and presentation, along with portion size. The Texas four as our appetizer start was a huge portion, and our little one with his mac and cheese with fries for a kids menu option along with coloring was a very welcome addition to keep him entertained in this upscale dining where everyone was welcoming and so kind to our dinner affair. We also had a warm howdy from Hondo, part of the management team here at Haywire Austin, and he was so sweet in sharing his story and welcoming us into their first few days of operation, and generous offered a lovely bread pudding for husband's birthday celebration festivities which my little family all indulged on. All in all, I have no complaints and look forward to many future plans in revisiting for happy hours, easy lunches or intimate dinners, and love how Haywire is as chill as it is upscale business foo foo wine and dine. read more

This has been under construction in the Domain for the longest time and it's awesome to finally go inside. Sadly, I didn't have enough time for more than a drink this time, but the staff offered me a tour while I was there which was so nice of them, and everything looks great. While the upstairs is still closed to finish construction, the ground floor has an attractive bar on one end, plenty of table seating in the middle, a semi-open kitchen on the left side, and a few smaller rooms and dining areas including the coolest private room with a round table hidden behind built-in bookshelves for the ultimate in exclusivity. The upscale decor and materials are gorgeous and do a good job of expressing their Texas cattle baron aesthetic with stone and leather and wood, with some bold style choices as well. The menu is definitely on the pricey side, but they have some very intriguing options like elk in addition to less exotic Texas fare. I can't wait to come back and explore. read more

What an absolute stunner with fantastic food! We were a group of nine (9) with reservations on a Tuesday night. Service: we were seated right away and the service was super attentive all night. Our server educated us on the offerings. The team went above and beyond too. We were in town for a conference for Facility Managers - so we are naturally curious about stunning built environments. The team gave us a private tour of the rest of the facility when we were done with dinner. This extra touch of hospitality really touched us all. I'm here to say that the interior wowed us all, a group of architects, mechanical engineers and facility managers! We're a tough group to impress too! Food: We ordered the Cowboy Feast. It just made sense since there were so many of us AND we were new to the restaurant. Here's what was on our tray: 33 oz Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye, 8 oz Garlic Stuffed Filet, 12 oz NY Strip, Mesquite Grilled Gulf Shrimp, choice of four sides. For our sides we chose mashed potatoes, broccolini, asparagus and macaroni and cheese. Everything on the tray was perfectly seasoned and cooked. Just amazing! For beverages we shared a few bottles of wine and one in our group ordered the smoked old fashioned. It was delicious with an artful presentation. Atmosphere: classy, artful, simultaneously down to earth and touches of humor throughout (I see you, UFOs in the wallpaper!). Bottom line: 15/10! Make a reservation and giddy on up over there! read more

Great service, food and atmosphere. Although this location hasn't been open long, it is run well and was a great place for a team meal. I tried the non-alcoholic Pink Lady cocktail - very refreshing. The table shared an onion ring tower - the breading was so light and crispy - served with a chipotle sauce - very yummy. I ordered the petite filet and asparagus for my meal. It was delicious. I asked for my butter on the side - dumb move on my part as it was delicious but I was trying the save a few calories! I'll certainly be back. read more

Haywire - Filet - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

New spot in The Domain that just opened a few wks ago. (Parking in the plaza is a hassle so be prepared, but that's not the restaurant's fault.) Beautiful decor, restaurant is still getting its bearings for running smoothly (mostly to figure out getting patrons seated in the right sections for RSVP vs walk-ins) since it's so new but all service was courteous and helpful. Our server Melanie R. was attentive (kept refilling lemonade without us needing to flag) and was knowledgeable about all the dishes and drinks, despite it being such a recent opening. She also mentioned that all of their steaks are sourced from their own farms and made great recommendations across all categories on the menu. All of our food was so delicious (photos attached). The staff member who brought my 12 oz strip loin steak out to us politely waited table-side requesting I cut through the center of the steak to ensure it was cooked medium rare to my liking, and it was just right :) Bathrooms are single private units w shared row of sinks across genders. It can be a bit dark to see in the evenings so if you have older folks dining with you, may want to keep an eye out. The only drawback I would note is the design of the seating section near the open kitchen. While it's visually cool to see the chefs firing up food while dining, if you're at a table right next to it it gets pretty warm and you're basically next to a ton of wait staff running in and out of the kitchen so it's noisier. Go for a table further from the kitchen if you would mind these aspects. Overall, was a great place to eat after traveling all day coming hungry off of a long flight and made for a nice memory of kickoff during our stay in Austin. read more

My wife and I were staying the night at The Domain, and knew that Haywire had recently opened, so we decided to book a table for the evening. On entry it's obvious there's a heavy Western theme. There's cow hide on the chairs, some of the servers were in cowboy hats and wranglers, longhorn's hung on the wall...the whole nine. The unusual thing about the décor, is that there's also shelves holding bits of old technology, books and toys. The external black brick and shaded yellow accent lights is a color theme I like a lot....looks very slick. The overall look is slick, with a casual yet stylistic atmosphere with nice mood lighting. Anyways, on to the food! We started with the Crispy Pork Belly Bites...they were good. The sweet honey glaze, pickled fresnos and charred mandarins give it a sweet, tasty and smoky flavor. For my main, I had the bone-in cowboy ribeye with charred broccolini. I asked for medium rare, but it came out more medium and I wasn't that keen on the broccolini. My wife went with the petite filet and tallow fries....the fries were really nice. We used to cook our "chips" in beef dripping back in the day as a kid in England, which is essentially what beef tallow is. I finished off with the Whiskey Bread Pudding, which is made with crossiants and topped with caramel sauce, cinnamon sugar and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. VERY NICE!!! Everything is sourced locally, too. Service was fast and friendly, so I can't fault them there either. It's not cheap, though. Price-wise, it's between Paul Martin's and Perry's Steakhouse. Overall, we enjoyed our time there and will be back again. read more

Celebrated our son's birthday at Haywire and this was our first visit. When we called for the reservation we knew they were likely going to be fully booked and they were at our requested time. However, in speaking to a staff accommodations were made to get us in. We brought the whole family of 7 this night. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. The service was prompt and attentive. The restaurant is very loud though and bustling. Only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that upon arrival the hostess staff was not particularly welcoming or friendly and took our name without any kind of explanation or updates for our fairly long wait to be seated. Otherwise, a very pleasant visit. read more

Rodeo, ranch, western cowboy, all words that come to mind when I think about this place. The theme start at the entrance and takes over the menu. My first thought was "oh I didn't know I needed to wear my Cowboy Carter outfit to dinner. Everyone from workers to customers were wearing the same cowboy attire. It was cute but a bit overwhelming. The place is huge, we sat upstairs (nice view by the window. The menu. Is typical steak house food but it has a twist of Tex Mex. I got the grilled meatloaf and it was interesting. I am not sure what meat they use but it was not good. I tried it with the salsa it came with and still nothing. The cilantro rice was a crunchy and the glazed carrots were super had )one flew across the table while trying to cut it. I had green beans and even with the bacon...no flavor. The table got bison tacos and pork bites, both appetizers were delicious! I could order the tacos as a meal. The steak was good and the red fish was delicious. Again the menu is typical steak house food but for the price I think I'd stick to the basics. The Tex Mex flare threw me off on many dishes and turned me away from ordering. The staff was excellent and food came out as quickly as it would with the amount of customers. I'd recommend parking at the pink garage and taking the walk. The area is busy so make a reservation. read more

Stumbled on Haywire while looking for a lunch spot--we came for the Thursday prime rib sandwich and are so glad we did! First, the place looks so upscale but the menu and prices are approachable. The atmosphere is gorgeous with cute Texas detail--the kitchen area is open and looks so beautiful! Our waitress was amazing and gave us strong recommendations and they were able to make accommodations for allergies with no issues. This is one of those places that you could come to again with a group and everyone can find something. The Mac and cheese was homemade tasting and everything felt high quality. Must try the onion rings! 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.

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!

Haywire is located on 11501 Rock Rose Ave Ste100 off Esperanza Corssing in the Domain. It's so new it's not even posted on the Domains website as of yet. A much needed change in the RockRose area from the typical repeats of pastries salads and alcohol establishments. Haywire hits all checkmarks for an outstanding dining experience with an unmistakably Texas twist. Cowboy chic Austin formal whatever it is I'm excited it's here. This isn't your typical so so restaurant, every single item we tasted was delicious and well thought out by the culinary team. Sauces complimented nicely with the items they were paired with, everything was seasoned well and everything was cohesive and didn't leave me wondering what the theme was. No randomly paired mishmash's of food (played out fusion failures ) I see so much of when a restaurant is trying to hard to be many different things all at once. I personally got the Thursday special which is a giant prime rib sandwich that was well balanced with sauces and peppers to cut through the richness of the prime rib and beef tallow fries. My kids got a delicious looking burger and grilled cheese and we all shared the Chef's "Favorite 4" consisting of queso blanco, branding iron onion rings, mini elk tacos, fried green tomatoes! I loved everything in this appetizer sampler and highly recommend getting it because it covers half the items on the appetizer menu but is significantly cheaper to order as a sampler. The elk tacos were my favorite and the onion rings are enough to have one and be full they are so big . As I mentioned the sauces that were paired with the chefs favorite 4 really complimented the fried green tomatoes and other items perfectly. As for the queso pshh it's just out of this world gooey and addictive and also my kids want it as their meal item instead of anything else the next time we visit apparently. Not your typical yellow valveta Austin cheap queso which isn't bad when you're tossing back beers and bbq but this queso is stepped up a notch done with real quality cheese. Our service was also outstanding our waitress was extremely attentive and made sure we had a wonderful first experience. She saw that our 6 month old was being fussy and made sure to get our food to us as soon as it hit the expo station. She was cheerful kind hospitable and really a great example of how to welcome a customer so that they want to return. Haywire's service and amazing food is perfect recipe for a winning restaurant ! Hopefully they continue to maintain this service and food quality and don't compromise when they get comfortable down the road like so many places do before they wonder why they have to close . My only one critique that was an absolute nightmare was to find parking to get to Haywire. It is absolutely the biggest headache especially when the Domain is full. Both parking garages were completely full no parking available on RockRose so I had to park at some apartments down the street on Esperanza Crossing after driving around for 10 min hoping someone would leave the boring garages. I'm not dinging them on any stars for that because it's not their fault but I am giving y'all a heads up if you do plan to eat here . ( yes I said Y'all !) read more

Haywire was great experience. The customer service was top notch, very professional and courteous, the food was excellent and the ambience had very modern Texas vibes, which was beautiful and the elegant. We came here in April 7 for lunch had two appetizers (pork bites and the onion rings), and these were just perfect. We also started with tortilla soup and house salad, and these were great starters. For our main meal, we had chicken fried steak, barbacoa stroganoff, baby back ribs, and western burger. All I have to say is WOW! Our party shared our plates and each entree was so awesome and salivated our palates. To top it off, we shared the whiskey bread pudding. Perfect perfect perfect way of ending our lunch experience. We will definitely be back and recommend Haywire to everyone! read more
