We used to have night out with dinner but now we do lunch. We chose this restaurant based on the D magazine article about the best burgers in dallas. Goodwin's burger was rated one of the best and it lived up to their reputation. We had one burger medium rare and one burger medium well and we had one patty melt, along with salad and fries. All were cooked perfectly. Service was a 10 and the ambiance was a 10. Drinks were great and they had every bourbon we asked for. I would definitely return with my spouse to spoil her.

The manager came out (because it was taking a little bit) and said a croquette broke when they were making one of our meals and had to remake it.

I got the Korean bbq bowl and my husband got the seared chicken, both were soooo good!

Fancy spot! You wouldn't mind if I review it, would you? Eating out in Dallas can get really…read moreexpensive, really quick. Often times after it's all said & done, you wonder - was that worth it? Thankfully, that is NOT the experience I had at Haywire! I ate here on August 9th, 2025 and enjoyed everything about it. I was with a large party but would love to return for a more intimate experience. On this Saturday, my younger cousin was graduating from Parker University so I was in town for the weekend. At around 1pm, I was one of the first to arrive at the restaurant. Unfortunately the parking is a bit confusing. There was construction being done on the same street when I went but there's a parking garage for customers that's difficult to navigate AND the elevator that connects wasn't operating at the time which was an issue for many (but not me, I got a good spot & walked). My party hadn't all arrived yet so I took a gander. Upon entering the tall doors, the space breathes southwestern elegance: wooden structure, leather seating, separate dining areas with highlighted ranch-style art. The abundance of space gives it an open-concept feel. The lighting fixtures are modern, the space was dim but not too low, with an option to utilize the large windows also. I was quiet impressed at the overall presentation. When my party did arrive, I wanted to keep it simple so I ordered the Chicken Cobb Salad and a Hibiscus Haze with Vodka. The table shmoozed as we ate some of the appetizers: the Crab Dip & Green Tomatoes, both amazing. The food did take some time but, considering it was 10-12 of us, that's expected. The Hibiscus Haze was splendid: smooth & flavorful, a great concoction. Cobb salads are usually pretty thick but this one was HEARTY. It came in a large bowl stuffed with the all the toppings. The dressing it was tossed with was well balanced but could've used a tad bit more. With some pepper & a little ranch, I was set! I defeated the salad but it also left me stuffed to the gills. Satisfying meal that I would order again! There are tons of restaurants to dine at in Dallas & sometimes you never know which is worth your time. Despite the inconvenience of parking, I'd bet my bottom dollar that this is a good place to eat. Whether you want a fine dining experience, it's a special occasion or just want a good drink with a meal, Haywire has enough to satisfy all interests.

We were seated near the kitchen so we could see all the hustle and bustle. Parking was easy, we found the garage and took note of the parking spot level. Thankfully they give free parking validation, so make sure to scan the code once inside. Food was good. We ordered drinks then appetizer of pork belly. I enjoyed it. For entrees, I had the chicken fried chicken with green beans and mashed potatoes. It was good and plenty because I had to take some with me. I would come back here and try some other dishes.

We were seated immediately and our server was very friendly and got us started with water immediately. My wife informed her of the food allergies and informed us that whatever he is interested in, she will let us know if he can have it or if they are able to modify it. I ordered the Deviled Avocado (their play on the Deviled Egg). First it looked so cool and the avocado was the base and instead of the creamy egg it was a chick pea cream with some salt and seasoning. It was topped with onion straws. OMG it was really good. I really loved it and the texture was similar to deviled egg. For my main dish, I got a fresh kale salad with ranch dressing. It also had chick peas croutons. The ranch was light and very good. The kale was crisp and the chickpea croutons were unique and crispy. It was large enough for two. I also ordered a side of fresh cut fries which were cut thin. It was crispy and lightly salted. I can't skip in ordering fries especially if they look good. And looks matched the taste. The service was great and she kept checking on us. She knew every ingredient of all the dishes we asked about. It was amazing ! We will be back when we are back in Dallas.

It's always hard to get a good vibe from just a small taste, but this was not a good wine and would not suggest. The tradition of handing out drinks and toasting was pretty cool I must say. Nice touch. We started with the cashew queso. Our vegan friends enjoyed more than us. For mains we had the Fried Chicken sandwich and the burger. The burger was great. The chicken sandwich was dry. The tallow fries that came with were warm, not hot, and just ok. I was expecting more. I would not order fries again. Others ordered the brussel sprouts, mashed tators, all were very good. And lastly a falafel burger. It was pretty tasty. All in all a great place. I think the execution for some of the menu items were off, so maybe warrants another visit.

You do have to find a seat at the bar and it can be a bit busy but I assure you that it's well worth it. My favorite is the two seats at the end on the right hand side where you're sitting in your own corner and not elevated. Start with the frozen Bellini. It never fails me and it certainly packs a punch. The cheeseburger went up from $10 to $11 but you absolutely cannot beat that price. Absolutely a perfect well-balanced burger. I'm not a pickle fan but it does come with a huge, seasoned pickle. Do yourself a favor and get the truffle parm fries. Maybe oysters and a burger are a weird combo but it somehow works here. They have all the fixings to pair. I've tried a multitude of things here but I will say the overall portion size is a bit smaller than the value so I typically come for happy hour and nothing more anymore.

It was date night and I had stumbled across their insta post advertising their christmas movie nights and I immediately sent it to my boyfriend! Plans were immediately made to go watch Die Hard! Lol! As soon as we got there we were taken to the patio where the movie is shown and the entire ambiance throughout the restaurant is decorated in a chic christmas decor theme! The most beautiful white and gold color palette really adds a level of beauty to the ambiance! First things first, our waiter was amazing! He was so attentive especially because we were the only ones on the patio! Yes...we were the only ones who decided to see the Christmas movie Die Hard lol! For food we opted for a pizza and their buffalo bites! I am being quite honest when I say that this is some of the best crafted pizza we have ever eaten! We tried the hot honey pizza the last time we came and tried the Barnyard this time around and O M G! It was so so great! The buffalo bites are also a hit for us, mainly because they serve a lot of bites and not just 5-6 like most places! Of course, we couldn't leave without trying their festive drinks! My boyfriend enjoyed a hot peppermint tea while I got to try their sugar cookie martini and their Espresso Manhattan! The Sugar cookie martini definitely took the cake! 10/10! I was worried for a bit because of how milky it is, but it was a pleasant surprise! Overall, the experience was astounding! We definitely want to come back for their Home Alone night!

However they were attentive and the overall ambiance was nice and upbeat for a brunch place. Food wise, everything here was average. Nothing stood out as something I absolutely would come back for. We got two Benedict's that were not very warm and has hollandaise/gravy that was not very flavorful but the home fries were seasoned and fried well. The French toast was quite good but was very obviously put in the microwave right before serving with a steaming hot center. The best part was the blueberry kale salad which had a nice vinaigrette and the cashews were a nice touch. Overall, with the number of brunch spots in Dallas I would reserve halcyon for study/coffee spot as opposed to a must try weekend brunch.

If you're looking for a spot that actually nails the "coffee by day, cocktails by night"…read moretransition, Halcyon is it. It's got that airy, high-ceiling energy that's perfect for getting work done without feeling like you're trapped in a cubicle. The Vibe: It's cool without trying too hard. You'll see local art on the walls and plenty of natural light. By day, it's a laptop paradise with lo-fi beats; by night, the lights dim, the music picks up, and the patio becomes the place to be--especially if you have a dog in tow. Happy Hour (3 PM - 7 PM Daily): This is the real draw. Their Espresso Martini is a local legend, but the Chocolate Espresso Martini is the move if you want something decadent. If you're there on a Tuesday, they run happy hour prices all night. Don't sleep on the $5 pimento grilled cheese--it's the ultimate "I'm not that hungry but I need a snack" food. The People: Expect a very "Lower Greenville" crowd: a mix of productive millennials, SMU students with headphones on, and groups of friends sharing s'mores kits (yes, you can roast them at your table). The staff is laid-back and friendly, though they definitely stay hustling during the weekend brunch rush. Bottom line: It's reliable, unpretentious, and arguably the best spot on the block to switch from a latte to a lager without changing seats.

The best texture and flavor of a potato, soft interior with a crunchy exterior. Their steaks are yummy but what makes it better is the wine pairing.

We got in and took a seat at bar and we were helped out and had to ask for brunch menu. I did not get the pic of the brunch menu but it was very small. We almost wanted to leave because they were missing 3 very important items and likely many more. We went hoping they would still have the regular burger and the fried chicken sandwich that they used to have but nope they got rid of them both and they even changed the fried.

For my entrée, I ordered the grilled halibut, which was tender and flaky with great flavor, served over crisp greens and potatoes. Everything worked beautifully together.

The night started beautifully--we enjoyed espresso martinis at the bar and were then seated at one of our favorite tables. We ordered a bottle of wine and caviar and were settling in to plan the rest of our meal when the experience took a turn. A tween/teen birthday party was seated in the private room. At first, we assumed the noise was just initial excitement and would settle after a few minutes. The parents of the birthday girl were seated nearby, and when the mother got up, we expected she might ask the girls to lower their volume. Unfortunately, the opposite happened--she brought the group out into the main dining room for photos, where the noise level became even more disruptive. Another couple seated near us--at what is typically a very desirable table--lasted no more than five minutes before asking to be moved outside. Shortly after, a manager approached the private room. We anticipated they would address the noise, but instead, they greeted the party warmly and thanked them for being there, without making any effort to manage the disruption. After so many consistently great experiences, it was honestly shocking. We truly felt as though we were being punked. My boyfriend and I both have children and enjoy bringing them to nice restaurants, but part of that experience includes ensuring they understand and respect the environment. When that standard isn't upheld--especially with no support from management--it significantly detracts from the experience for everyone else.
