Best Southern American Restaurants in Melissa

Everything was super phenomenal! Our fantastic server, Sergio was the absolute BEST!! Our Main dishes were so impressive and delicious and with our party of 4; we tried just about all of the side dishes and each dish was extremely satisfying and delicious! Love this restaurant! Please ask for SERGIO! 😂🥰

Every item we ordered was delicious! We had 8 in our party and everyone loved their apps, entrees, and cocktails. The blacked shrimp and grits, catfish, lambchops, and the fried chicken all came out timely, hot, and perfectly prepared.

Both the food and service were outstanding. Had the deviled eggs as the appetized but should probably have tried the recommended cornbread or Fuyu Persimmon Carpaccio. I had the short ribs which were so tender I could just touch them with my fork, and the sides were delicious. My other half had the Kurobuta Pork Chop, which from my taste was also perfectly prepared. We took their suggestion for the Apple Pie Bread Pudding for dessert and it did not disappoint. Drinks were well presented and just right. Highly recommend.

Always a great experience at Haywire. The building they are located in recently converted parking to a ticketless system. It was a bit confusing to navigate, so I asked about it when I arrived, and the Manager came over to talk to me. He explained that parking was, in fact, free and validated, despite the parking company asking for my credit card info. And, once I finished my meal, I went through the validation process and it worked seamlessly. A tad bit annoying, but not reflective of the leadership at Haywire. As always, the rest of my experience at Haywire was fantastic, and our server was delightful!

Went on a Friday night before the piano bar next door so it was early - 6pm - and pretty empty. But we got attentive, friendly service and the food was really good. We both opted for seasonal dishes. My husband got grilled chicken with a harvest bowl that was peppery and full of vegetables and quinoa. I got a butternut squash and pumpkin quinoa dish with grilled salmon. We were too full for dessert but they sounded good. By the time we left around 7:30 there were more tables filled with diners.
