   We were seated promptly upon arrival at a table close to the kitchen, which added to the elevated noise level with pans clanging and people shouting food orders. We ordered an appetizer of elk tacos along with an old fashioned and a bourbon smash. We enjoyed these starters. Then, a gnat decided to join us. By the time we were a few bites into our order of petite filet and New York strip, more gnats had appeared. One flew in my glass of water and another wandered around my steak. We called the waitress over. She came just in time to see another gnat fall my lady bird cocktail, and others flying around our table. She immediately notified the manager who offered to remake the meals to eat there or take them to go. We appreciated the offer but declined since we had lost our appetites. We would like to try the restaurant again another time, because we feel it could be a wonderful dining experience once the gnat problem has been resolved.

   Great ambience. Great service by the waiter !! Food served cold including steaks and chicken after waiting long time for it to arrive.

   This was an amazing choice to celebrate my birthday. Food is superb and you can definitely tell ingredients are fresh and local. They treated me to a delicious birthday dessert and overall vibes was great. I would recommend this place to anyone. Also was expecting a higher tab but the brunch menu has pretty affordable options.

   Nice new restaurant! Very busy so it took some time to get our drinks. Food was great. Will definitely visit again.

   Had a great time at this place! The Chef's Favorite 4 appetizer was awesome — so tasty and a perfect way to start the meal. I went with the ribeye for dinner, and it was cooked just right — super juicy and packed with flavor. Big shoutout to our server, Leandro — he was really friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The drinks were a little pricey, but honestly, the food and service totally made up for it. Definitely a spot I'd recommend if you're looking for a solid meal and a good time!

   I enjoyed my first visit to the San Antonio location. The restaurant is beautiful and vibrant. My only disappointment was there was no gluten free menu or designation on the menu. Our server was trying to tell me from memory which items were gluten free/friendly. Why don’t they have a list of gf items, similar to their vegetarian menu? Overall, I liked it and will go back.

   Our first time at Haywire was phenomenal! Hostesses were quick to take us to our reservation in a gorgeous booth that was more than comfortable for two. Waiters and waitresses were very helpful and understanding of my girlfriend’s gluten and dairy allergy! Can’t wait to go back!

    We had a nice, casual dinner during mid-week. This was our first visit. Our waiter, Arturo, was great with his service and personality. For drinks, we tried the Frozen Margarita, Bourbon Smash, Haywire, and Caramel Rye Old Fashioned. For our entrees, we tried the Double Cut Pork Chops and the 8oz Filet with Cucumber Salads. We will definitely be back!
