For a sophisticated double date night, our group took in the energetic sights of south congress and found ourselves in a modern style chop house. The portion sizes are tailored for sharing. The ambiance is clearly tailored for large groups and has an appeal for the younger crowd while still appealing to the mature audience. Crowd noise was average until later in the evening when it was closer to capacity but nothing too distracting. Our waiter, Ryan, was absolutely pleasant. Being our first time, he gave details of the menu, appetizers, and the cocktail menu. Even offered non-alcoholic versions that weren't on the menu which was a treat that's hard to beat. For starters we tried the crab dip which came with squash hush puppies and ordered a side of house made ritz crackers. Absolutely amazing. Those hush puppies alone were worth ordering. But paired incredibly well with the crab dip. Then we ordered the grilled half chicken, prime rib with house macaroni and cheese, and mashed potatoes. The chicken, char grilled seasoned well while maintaining its tender juiciness. The mac and cheese was topped with bread crumbs. Prime rib was cooked medium, as that's the only option but was a delicious cut of meat and truly cooked medium. For dessert, we tried the chocolate and cheesecake. The cheesecake was rich and creamy, while the chocolate cake was more of a triple chocolate cake. I didn't care for the cream topping but I love chocolate. read more

Came for a New York and broccolini - broccoli was cold and steak was extremely tough. Super bummed to have wasted a dinner in Austin here

Our food was very good here and the ambiance was nice! However, the service could have been slightly better - not terrible, just not the greatest I had in the area. It is definitely worth coming here for the food - delicious! read more

Maie Day - Menu - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

I stopped by Maie Day hoping to find a fun Austin spot to bring visitors, but it fell short. The location has so much potential, but the vibe was missing. During happy hour, I had two glasses of wine and fries at the bar for $40. The fries were fine, but I had to pay an extra $1 for a tiny portion of ranch, which felt a bit nickel-and-dimey. Service was mixed--one bartender was trying to do it all (thank you!), but the other staff seemed indifferent. This place could be great with more energy and better hospitality, but for now, it's just meh. read more

Located on the north side of the South Congress hotel. Pretty decent sized restaurant with bar seating and inside/outside tables which can accommodate a good sized group. There's also space that can be enclosed for a private event. Dropped in for dinner - the vibe is loud with the music blasting and the din of conversation (was really hard to hear over the volume). Had a reservation and showed up a little early but ended up still waiting for a few minutes past for our table to be set up. Peach Pit - booze forward like an old fashioned but with a peachy fini Berry. Boozy. Cocktail. - booze forward bourbon drink. Slightly sweet and fruity. Crab claws. This was good. Garlicky and savory with a slight tang. Served with some bread. Dredge it though the sauce. So good. Spinning salad. Not usually a huge beet fan normally but I liked this salad. Grilled oysters. Wow slightly spicy but these were the star of the dinner. Grilled mushrooms. Didn't do it for me. Had balsamic vinegar so they were just sour tasting. Max and cheese. These come with a topping of breadcrumb crumbles for a crunchy texture. Thick and sticky and cheesy. Really good when piping hot. Clumpy and not as great as they cooled. Also very salty. Prime rib. A huge cut of prime rib slightly uneven with one side thick tapering down to a thinner side. Perfectly medium and pink/red throughout. Horseradish sauce was mild. Server sitting in gravy. This was good but I think I'd opt for a grilled steak. Next time. NOTE: Maie Day tacks on a 4% surcharge for employee costs. This amount is included in the subtotal and is taxed. You can remove this if desired. Enjoyed the meal but the price was a bit hefty. read more

Went for Prime Rib Fridays and it was delicious! We had reservations but it wasn't busy so we were seated early so that was nice. Live music is playing and the interior of the place is cute. Service was great and we got the kale and mashed potatoes added to our prime rib plate but I'll pass on the kale next time, I like the mashed potatoes better. read more

Phenomenal food and excellent service from Nathan and the other bartenders. I had excellent recommendations throughout the whole menu and enjoyed a mocktail along with my meal. Portions sizes are definitely larger as things are meant to be shared! I was a big fan of the "right to the core" mocktail and the pecan espresso martini! read more

Maie Day - green beans and fried mahi mahi - New American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Food: great oysters, great fries, great sauces Service: bless his heart, he may have been off his game for the night, but our server at the bar forgot parts of our order, got other parts wrong, was just generally forgetful, but he was sweet. We were greeted pretty instantly with the information that there was a private party so the kitchen would be delayed and this after waiting to be acknowledged for almost 10 min-, but I feel like if there's a private party maybe you staff up? The location is awesome but the interior feels confusing. Half Steakhouse, half smoothie bar was kind of the vibe but it's not like that ruins an experience. Overall it's fine ...it's conveniently located and the oysters were good so might do it again but not rushing back. read more

(Let's say 3.5 stars) I've been wanting to try this place out for a while as it's within walking distance for me. I usually like to Congress happy hour style (if you know what i mean) but this place has an early happy hour. The husband and I finally had an afternoon where we could make it to their early happy hour so here we go.... Crab Dip- ordered by waitress recommendation I would say she is right...this is a good dish. Not too crabby in flavor and crab was nicely shredded for a good "dip". Squash hushpuppy was a nice way to sneak veggies into our kids tummies as you couldn't even tell squash was hiding in there. Just wish portion size was bigger. Especially for $25. Raw oysters - good quality oysters. Just know it comes as 6 for the $24. Smoked Fish Dip - It's a gamble when you order smoked fish (lol) but in fact this dip was not too smokey and not too fishy at all. It was a bit onion heavy but still trumped the Crab Dip in flavor in my eyes. The house "Ritz" crackers were a good concept but a little overly toasted flavor this batch (not sure if that's how they normally like it cooked). So, I normally don't like to let cost play a factor in my reviews because trust me, I will pay good money for good food. But for this happy hour feast - cost to flavor to portion ratio was way off. read more

We had an amazing dining experience at Maie Day! It gets busy so be sure to make a reservation in advance. I did call three times and leave two voicemails and never heard back so I was nervous coming into the meal. I had a reservation at 6pm and they were already sold out of the prime rib so I recommend coming on the earlier side. Our server was very nice and efficient. The food was exceptional, I highly recommend the Mac and cheese for the table. The decor and ambiance was relaxed yet elegant. I definitely suggest trying this place. read more

Overall Maie Day was good. I personally didn't think of it being anything special. I will say the portions are huge. It's on par with a normal steakhouse you would go too. I started with the Pitch & Tease it was a frozen drink with a deep eddys lemon base peach tea. It was good and refreshing. My friend and I shared a shrimp cocktail and the shrimp was plump. Overall I enjoyed the sides more than the steak. The sunchokes were delicious. The funeral potatoes was their version of scalloped potatoes. I had no issues with service. I went during their first month. The staff was super helpful and guiding us through the menu. The tables are relatively close and pretty hard to hear. read more

Whoa.. that was a serious meat party. First, we were greeted by multiple servers pouring us waters and taking care of us. Walter seemed to team up with Ashley for the bulk of our needs and both were charming and attentive. Walker was helpful in explaining everything from the types of Oysters that were dropped off the the veggies and steaks. The Oyster's were really good, at least two of the three varieties were delicious, the third was mmm Otey... The menu is broken up to mostly massive steaks at 16oz. That included their Prime, Rib-Eye and Strip all at $65. The Tenderloin was 8oz and priced at $50. There were various other things like a Pork Chop, Chicken Fried Steak and a whole fish offered. The sides were plentiful as well. Here's what you probably shouldn't do. The 16oz is a definite split entree size. The prime rib was exceptional, but I couldn't finish but half of it. The Rib-Eye was definitely also a split portion. I guess one could handle the Tenderloin, the mistake we made was everyone got their own steak, which meant an overload of food on the table. Along with four sides, it was easily enough for 8. Nonetheless, they were delicious. The only small downside was Mac/Cheese and Corn were a tad disappointing. Mushrooms and Green Beans exceptional. There are several excellent cocktails and a large wine list to quench one's thirst. You can certainly drop some serious cash in here, especially if you go the one steak per person plate. Good news, they were all terribly accomodating in boxing everything up for us to take home. Some great Steak Salads will be coming out to lunch tomorrow! read more

| Food | This review is regarding brunch. Three of us ordered "the chicken and the egg" and it is a very tasting dish, with tender roasted chicken au jus topped with a fried egg and sprinkled with pecorino cheese. The accompanying hash brown was very tasty too. One person in our party added queso and unfortunately said it tasted like it came from a can. We enjoyed the yummy house biscuits which came with honey butter. | Drinks | I wish their coffee didn't come in such small cups that constantly needed to be refilled; it was decent coffee though. The mimosas are champagne heavy and juice light, so if that's your thing you will like them. | Atmosphere | It is part of the South Congress Hotel complex and the venue is cute. I really like the Gauguin-inspired wall murals. If there's availability you can park in the hotel's garage and they validate for 2 hours. read more

My review is solely for the prime rib special on Fridays - it was my first time going to Maie Day and it was a warm afternoon so it felt lovely sitting on the patio. Great location on south Congress. Server was friendly. The prime rib is an 8oz portion but ours had to be bigger, generous portions, I did not finish mine. Cooked perfectly. It came with horseradish that was pretty good. Ordered a side of mashed potatoes which was tasty. This was a quick lunch this time but I'd definitely come back for a casual lunch again with cocktails. Loved the parking validation. read more

Eight here for a meeting. The food selection was excellent and the wine serve was very good. I'll come back and try it on the regular menu soon. If you park in the underground parking, which is recommended make sure you get the validation as a parking is otherwise expensive. read more

Stopped at Maie Day for a cocktail at the bar while waiting for our reservation time at Neighborhood Sushi. The sun was BEATING through the glass doors/walls of this place so it was even really hot inside. :( Still, the cocktails were great and it smelled SO good in there (open fire pit), so I can't wait to come back and try the food. Maybe when it's not a million degrees out. read more

We made reservations for via OpenTable for a Friday to have their lunch Prime Rib special. Beware if you have a 11am reservation they really do not let you in until 11am. Additionally, seems there is something up with their AC. They had a swamp cooler at the front and near the kitchen. It could be the open flame in the kitchen which keeps the dining room warm. They have a duo playing music at a level that is too loud for lunch. The special comes with mash potatoes that contain a lot of butter. Like you are sucking on a butter stick. When I say comes with it is an additional $8 and honestly not worth it at all. We also got the thick cut bacon but I would pass on that if I came back. Overall an ok lunch. Glad we tried it but will not be back. Looking at their regular menu prices seem high. I know everything is high but based on the lunch special I would not pay these prices. The longest wait was for our check. We literally waited 20 minutes for someone to realize we were done, hot and annoyed by how loud the music was. A positive they do validate parking for parking in the hotel garage. read more

The food was delicious. I recommend getting a few small plates and passing them around the table.

Ordered the prime rib and it was really nice. Serving was generous, and after cutting away the burnt ends around the steak, the rest was absolutely delicious. Coupled with a cup of red wine, and ending the meal with a cup of coffee and you would have as perfect a dinner as one could ask for. read more

We went here for brunch. The food was decent but a bit overpriced. I ordered the smash burger which was tasty, though it costs $18 and didn't come with any type of side. Service was good and appreciate that garage parking is validated. For as many good restaurants as there are in Austin, this one isn't at the top. Maybe the dinner menu is more impressive. read more

Went for brunch recently. The avocado toast was great. I'm not usually a fan of ordering avocado toast at a restaurant because it's something I could make at home, but Maie Day's was fantastic! It's got tons of toppings and there is some kind of aioli blended into the avocado I think. The place is super cute and they were playing indie music circa 2005-2010s. Love that. Minus one star because the queso was truly terrible. The name was a play on Bob Armstrong dip but this was not it at all. Instead of being made with Extra Melt cheese, it was something else entirely that had a mealy texture. No one in my group wanted it. read more

"Decadent" is the word I'd use to describe our brunch at Maie Day. -Pecan roll: We started off with a pecan roll, an it was very good, a great way to start off the meal. Who doesn't want a cinnamon roll for an appetizer? -Mimosas: The mimosas were just the way I like them: mostly sparkling wine, with a splash of juice. They had a variety of fruit juices to choose from for the mimosas, including the classic orange juice. -Biscuits and gravy: So good, a classic take on this savory brunch dish. -Sugar waffles: The yummy waffles were topped with tons of delicious berries and a coffee whipped cream--I was surprised by how much I liked the whipped cream, as I'm not typically a big coffee-flavor fan. There really wasn't anything I didn't like about this brunch. The restaurant was cute (and very busy during weekend brunch--it looked like there was a baby shower in the back room), and service was nice. read more

Need a quick snack to share with a friend when you aren't too hungry?!? The bald size Loaded Fries for $10 is the way to go! It's huge for a half size. Next time I'd probably ask for more queso on the side, but it's good and fully loaded! Between two of us we couldn't even finish it. read more

Excited to try this newish chophouse on Soco. Anywhere that has wood fired meats, I'm in! Loved the ambiance of the wood fire grill and that you could see it sitting in the restaurant. To start, the service was great. Our hostess and server were really helpful in helping us decide what to order of the many good sounding things. We ended up going with the crab claws, prime rib, green beans and chocolate cake. The best thing of all we're the crab claws, in yummy butter and garlic with wood fire grilled sourdough. Could have had another whole plate. While the prime rib and green beans were tasty, they came up to us at room temperature. Prime rib was a little over cooked for my personal taste. There were weren't many people there, so I can't imagine why this was. Chocolate cake was okay, didn't seem super fresh, but still good. Overall, nothin terrible that would make me not return, but would only return for those crab claws and maybe try another couple apps/sides. read more

I'll give 3 stars for the ambiance of outdoor seating, service and the appetizers. We got the sticky bun and shrimp cocktail. Also, the drinks were strong and had nice flavor profiles. However, my brunch dish was so bad. It was over salted and really didn't make sense. The fried egg was over a bed of arugula and shredded roasted chicken in gravy. The only thing really edible was the egg and hash brown. Definitely not worth $16 or even half that price. I wish I had just stuck with the apps and a cocktail. read more

I love everything about Maie Day - even when they've been out of something or are slammed, they always make it right and try to go the extra mile. Food, LOVE. Staff, LOVE. Vibes, LOVE. read more

A pretty ok experience. Servers were nice but not very good. The space is really cute and there's a parking garage behind the restaurant and the restaurant will validate for you. For some reason, everything we ate was very, very salty. I could not even eat my salad because it was so tangy. The oysters and crab claws were good but the smallest oysters and crab claws I've ever seen. The ribeye was good but not sure if it was worth the money--again very salty and not hot. Ordered a second round of drinks that never came but turns out the server just forgot to put it in--so we didn't have to pay for it. I wouldn't come back for dinner but I would try a happy hour here. read more

As a big foodie and someone that's in the food business was so excited this restaurant was just named a Michelin Star restaurant. Just stopped for Sunday brunch, and have to say my experience was OK..... at the bar, had good service, but I ordered the prime rib, hash, which was extremely disappointing... There may have possibly been one ounce of finally diced prime rib, with a lot of potatoes and vegetables... If I didn't know, itwas prime-Rib..., I wouldn't have been able to identify that there was any meat. Odd for a Michelin Star restaurant... with extreme food cost focus won't trick many customers... I've been to most Michelin star restaurants in Austin, and many around the globe, be cautious with this one read more

Maie Day on South Congress in Austin, Texas, has delicious food and awesome deals (check their instagram for weekly deals) this makes it a go-to spot for locals and visitors. The wagyu burger is a standout, so much flavor and you have to add the egg. Also, consider trying the focaccia bread - absolutely amazing and a must-try! With its inviting ambiance and mouthwatering dishes, Maie Day is a definite recommendation for anyone craving good food in a fun area. read more

The interior is modern and pretty. The ceiling lights around the bar table were designer brand. The cocktail menu was interesting, originally wanted to try their fig cocktail which sounds so rare and tasty, but they didn't have that. I had the tomato and my friend had the sangria. The sangria tasted pretty decent and the tomato was also smooth and tasty. I like the vibe, even nothing else impressed me. read more

Absolutely. Fantastic. My friends and I made a reservation for 8 at 8:30pm - reservations are a must! As soon as we walked in, I was very pleased by the high ceilings and the modern decor. We order so many things and shared it all family style. It was a perfect amount! We ordered the Oysters, Crab Claws, Bloomin' Onion, Ribeye, Fish, Mac & Cheese, Green Beans, and Wings. All were fantastic, so you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Dishes that made the top of my list were the crab claws, mac & cheese, and fish. I also ordered the Pitch & Tease. MMMM this cocktail was delicious! Both herby and fruity, paired for a perfect cocktail. Side note - lotion in the bathroom smells amazing! Can't wait to come back for a date night! read more

Before booking the resy, we were looking for their happy hour, but after a bit of searching, we didn't find it, bc well, No happy hour. We still booked it. Great service and welcome staff as soon as we arrive, till the end of our dinner. TLDR; Food is pretty good; cocktails are amazing and dessert is to die for. Cocktails are amazing. The peach pit a whiskey drink w peach bitters, kinda like an old fashioned; and the Santiago's lament, a nice rum drink with citrus flavors. Starters we had were "What The Fluke" which is a crudo prepared dish with nice, summer flavors. Comes with a peach sauce, blueberries and chamoy crisps, yum; and the tartare, which was a bit horseradish-forward, but not too spicy to enjoy, my wife didn't like it but I did. The egg yolk in the middle added a nice balance to the spiciness. I wish I had more bread w the tartare since the tartare serving is for more than 1 slice of sourdough cut in half. Entrees we chowed down were the black bass butterflied and grilled, oh so darn good; and the chicken fried steak which had an amazing cream gravy. Our sides were creamed corn with popcorn on top and crispy kernels, grilled green beans with a weird looking sauce but tasty AF, and the Mac n cheese, the cheese and the bacon bits on top were a perfect melody in my trap. We finished strong w the brûléed cheesecake, and the crumble on top and the crust were absolutely delicious. The top of the cheesecake is caramelized like a crème brûlée, and it comes w a funky, herbaceous raspado. read more
