    Found this place from a 2023 NY Times article, so we anticipated a stellar meal. Overall, the restaurant was good, just not stellar. Some dishes, like the Yardbird fried chicken with collard greens were fantastic. The pork shank was a bit dry, served warm, not hot, and lacked flavor, although the accompanying bean ragu with bits of bacon was yummy. Croissant bread pudding was good and warm, although the accompanying ice cream was half melted. Cocktails were inventive. Service was attentive. Noise level was loud but tolerable. The meal was a bit rushed. 45 minutes from start to finish. Last, I don’t mind paying for valet service, but $10 is huge.

    Haywire is beautifully designed with wooden furniture & chandeliers. Lots of different spaces for separate private rooms. They’re known for their whiskeys & bourbons. I was impressed upon walking in and the main dining area is upstairs. Ribeye steak was juicy, redfish was soft & flaky, elk tacos were delicious & crunchy. Definitely recommend eating here.
