    Me plus one & always joy to go here! Quite romantic restaurant spot. HH sun thru thurs all day & Fri- Sat 3-6 pm. Our bartender Morgan & Aaron Gibson service mgr greeted us to make sure our experience was excellent.

    Paul Martin's at the Domain is a great go to, especially for happy hour. The burger combo is a steal, comes with a free drink, and honestly feels more like a full dinner than a snack. I asked for the burger rare plus and they nailed it, juicy, flavorful, and cooked exactly right, which does not always happen. We also tried the chicken sandwich, and while the flavor was good, it leaned pretty salty, and that is coming from someone who loves salt, so just a heads up there. Still very solid overall. Best part, you can pair either sandwich with a glass of Caymus or other cocktails/beer and the total is only $18, which is kind of wild for the quality and setting at the Domain. Great atmosphere, good value, and consistent food, just a touch lighter on the salt for the chicken and it would be perfect.

    I'll add pics later, but I wanted to truly share yet again another great experience coming to this restaurant! The waiters worked as a great team to handle our large 16 person party, easily excited a game plan to divide the table accordingly and was able to get all the orders correct on the first time around. It was a later in the night reservation but the vibe was still very accommodating and peaceful with no pushiness or emotion of rushing. Great vibes! From the appetizers to the desserts were and easy 10/10 must get again and again! I've been to this restaurant numerous amount of times, and every single time has been a knock out of the park when it comes to the cuisine! I'll keep coming here and recommending anyone i can to come here as well!

    Friendship may seem simple but requires effort as people grow and evolve over time - offering support, care, and attention to meaningful details. Lasting friendships rely on trust, mutual care, and shared experiences. I am grateful to have about 20 friends of over 25 years, where we can be our authentic selves. Today, I had lunch with one of those friends at Paul Martin's. When you walk into Paul Martin's at the Domain, you are struck by the vastness of the building - high ceilings, variety of seating areas (bar, main dining room, open kitchen, and private dining areas) and large windows. The structure has somewhat of a feel of a speakeasy but with a modern twist. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted by a hostess who sat me in a booth area specifically designated by my friend. You can easily see folks walking outside at the Domain through the open windows. For a people watcher like me, I was in people watching heaven. Almost immediately after I was seated, Adriana, our server greeted me. She served water and provided menus. She was very personable and friendly. My friend ordered an Asian noodle salad, Topo Chio water and butter cake (cake to go). Paul Martin's is known for their butter cake. I have it on previous visits - it's buttery, soft, and rather addicting. I ordered the Express Lunch - Steelhead Salmon, garden salad, and Brussel sprouts (substituted out for quinoa). Every effort is made to love quinoa; I am not there yet. Smile. In addition, we ordered the biscuits as appetizers. According Adriana, the biscuits were the most popular starter. Overall, all meals were good. The brussels sprouts was a bit soggy, but flavored nicely. Paul Martin's is known for its happy hour. So, we have to come back and test it out.

    Paul Martin's is located in The Domain, which was decorated for Christmas with festive music that made the whole atmosphere feel cheerful and fun. We went for dinner with a reservation and were seated right away. The restaurant is welcoming and inclusive, with accessible pathways throughout the dining area, which I really appreciated. With the low lighting and candlelight, it's a perfect spot for our date night. We had a fabulous waiter who offered great recommendations. I ordered a festive mule, which was really good, and my husband chose a red wine from their impressive wine list. There were plenty of great drink options to choose from. We loved everything we ordered. The lobster bisque was creamy and had a generous amount of lobster. We also ordered the blackened shrimp and the brick chicken, both of which were absolutely delicious. For dessert, we split the warm butter cake served with ice cream, which was the perfect ending to the meal. It was such a lovely night, and I can't wait to dine here again.

    Best happy hour a girl can ask for! Food is always spot on!!! Bar is busy at happy hour but the bar tables around are great!

    Great first experience. I visited here for a birthday dinner. They were very accommodating to our group which I loved. We were able to sit in the covered patio area so it wasn't loud or overwhelming. The appetizers were great and my braised short rib left me wanting more! I would recommend and look forward to returning.

    Stamped right onto the corner of one of the Domain's busiest areas is Paul Martin's, a casual but refined grill featuring American classics such as steaks, burgers, and more. The location is pretty idealic being a 5 min or less walk from two parking garages and many different shopping spots. The interior is nice and modern, cozy feeling too. We made a reservation for an early 5pm dinner on a Tuesday but that was unnecessary as it was empty. As with anything in The Domain, we would still recommend a reservation as places can get packed pretty quickly. Once we were seated we were greeter by our waiter who was outstanding al throughout our service. For an appetizer we opened with the rustic cheddar biscuits which were phenomenal. The biscuit itself is moist enough but it comes with a honey-thyme butter that adds a layer of sweetness mixed in with a pinch of sharpness from the cheddar. Moving onto the entrees we got a filet mignon (medium) with grilled asparagus, blackened ribeye (medium rare) with mashed potatoes, and a side of Mac and cheese. The filet mignon was great, cooked perfectly and very juicy. The grilled asparagus was also decent but would probably be better replaced by other sides. The blackened ribeye was also delicious, a perfect medium rare and juicy all throughout. The mashed potatoes it comes with are on the lighter side with no lumps at all, just very fluffy (and good). Lastly, the mac and cheese was nice and balanced. It comes with a light breadcrumb top and the cheese is gooey but not too thick it drown the macaroni, a good option to eat alongside a small portion like the filet mignon. We also got some truffle butter and garlic herb butter for our steaks and we made a great choice on that as they gave both a bit of pop and added flavor. For a sweet refresher we also got a strawberry lemonade, but it was alright, a lot of seeds towards the bottom giving it some inconsistent textures. We enjoyed our time here a lot. This is the perfect mix of intimate and casual that a steakhouse/grill in the prime of The Domain should be. The service is great and the food is good. The price is even reasonable when you break it down compared to other steakhouses. All in all, Paul Martin's is an everyman's place to go. Slightly elevated but down to earth, good for families and date nights alike. A steady option in a place swamped with choices.

    We stopped by Paul Martin's for some drinks and a few bites, and everything was wonderful! I ordered a glass of wine and a lemon drop--wow, the lemon drop was absolutely delicious, one of the best I've had. We started off with the calamari, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. Since we ordered a lot of appetizers, we decided to share a plate for our main course. The pasta with shrimp was really good--great texture and taste. We also tried the biscuits and deviled eggs, and both were excellent additions to the meal. Overall, it was a great experience with tasty food, delicious drinks, and a nice atmosphere. We had a very nice server.

    My aunt and I popped in for dinner after running an errand at the Apple Store across the street and were pleasantly seated right away! I ordered the steak frites and my aunt ordered a house salad. Both of our meals were delicious, my steak was cooked perfectly and truly melted in my mouth. I didn't realize it came with a pile of arugula so I quickly added that to my aunts salad but boy was it still incredible! The only downside was the service was painstakingly slow - we never got our water refilled and it took ages to finally get our bill. Our server checked in right after our food was delivered and then that was it - never saw him again until I had to ask another serve to please help us get our check so we could go. Food? Phenomenal! Service? Sub-par

    Came in to celebrate my sisters birthday before we all went our separate ways. Was pleased to see it was happy hour however take note, you have to sit in the bar area in order to get happy hour specials. Ovi was our server and he was knowledgeable, attentive and constantly checked on us to make sure our needs were being met. We started off with the devil eggs - for me they are lacking some seasoning however Ovi brought me some salt and pepper and I was able to adjust that on my own. I got a draft beer to which I asked it be fully dressed. Ovi gave me the option of salt or tajin, I asked could we do both and he said absolutely! I got the burger and beer special - I know, a burger? However it was a really good burger as were the fries. We finished off with the warm butter cake that came with ice cream and it was delicious! This was a great lunch and I would definitely come back and try more.

    My wife and I stopped in the other night to grab a quick drink at the bar. We had a great time! The restaurant is beautiful. The Domain is awesome! The gal serving us at the bar was great! My wife ordered her favorite wine and I had a great NA beer! We'd stop in again for sure!

    Warm Butter Cake = Perfect dessert.

    I was caught doing a happy dance while enjoying a dinner here. It was seriously delicious and flavors were mild, and on point. The tuna lettuce cups were sweet and tangy. Perfectly mixed and served. The extra sauce served on the side was not needed, because then it became too gingery and too sweet for my taste, but this appetizer is definitely worth consuming. All the fresh cubed tuna were tossed in a marinade that had a much appreciated kick to it. Served in a fresh soft butter lettuce leaf cup, and ideal for low carbing. And my oh my, I have never enjoyed such a delightful braised beef rib that was calling my name. I was ecstatic with my choice the minute my fork was sliding into the buttery soft meat, making me drool before even setting my teeth in it. Though the dishes usually come with mashed potato, I opted for a healthier replacement. The roasted cauliflower was perfectly balanced with charred lines over the tender pieces of curd. My other half was craving for steak, and selected the blackened ribeye and also subbed the mashed potatoes for Brussel sprouts. We immediately noticed the juicy and tenderness of this steak and it was grilled to perfection. Though, a little confusion was with the tiny piece of bacon in The Brussel Sprouts. Not quite sure if that was supposed to be with and received minimal, or if a bacon piece was lost and stranded there. Also, Brussel Sprouts had an overwhelming amount of balsamic vinegar, that made us regret the choice of this replacement. Other than that, the robust and juicy steak was enjoyed well, up to last bite. The best was saved for last. And it wasn't because we love desserts too, but because it was made with love. The in cast iron cooked and served butter cake had these delicious sweeter crispy burned ends. The fresh strawberries, the warm and butter soft butter cake, topped with the creamy vanilla ice-cream was worth all the bites, carbs and calories. The requested message to celebrate us, was beautifully written in cursive and decorated this dish perfectly. The restaurant was lively and yet charming. The dimmed lights by our lower placed booth seats made it feel private. Service was excellent! From getting greeted and seated, acknowledging my special requested order to surprise my other half, to serving and clearing the table, to choosing a most fabulous meaningful presentation of the dessert. Thank you Paul Martin's for a excellent dinner, and smooth execution of my requests. We have added this to our Anniversary list and you will see us again.

    Wow! What an incredible experience at Sixty Vines in The Domain!…read more We made our reservation through OpenTable and mentioned that we were celebrating our anniversary. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome. When we arrived at our table, we were surprised with a handwritten Happy Anniversary postcard and a beautifully presented gift--such a thoughtful touch that immediately made the evening feel special. Our server, Polina, was absolutely fantastic. She took the time to learn what styles of wine we enjoy and brought us a few samples before helping us choose an amazing wine flight. Her recommendations were spot-on! We also enjoyed a custom charcuterie board and the prosciutto & fig pizza, both of which were outstanding. To top it all off, Andrew, the manager, stopped by our table to make sure everything was perfect. We loved learning about Sixty Vines' unique wine-on-tap program and appreciated their commitment to sustainability, including composting food scraps. (They didn't have much to compost from our table--maybe a bite or two of pizza crust! ) The only disappointing part of the evening was that we had tickets to a show and couldn't stay longer to explore more of their incredible wine selection. That's just another reason we'll definitely be back!
