Best Southern American Restaurants in Burleson

Honestly, we had Valentine’s Day reservations months in advance at a steakhouse, but to our surprise upon arriving we were informed they had to shut down due to construction workers hitting a gas line. Highly disappointed, thinking we would not find a last minute reservation anywhere on Valentines night, Haywire had a few available slots on open table and it was right around the corner. We reserved for 2 not knowing what to expect, but I am SO GLAD WE DID! The elk tacos appetizers were delicious! The redfish w/crab and shrimp was amazing! I was also celebrating my birthday and the warm pecan pie w/ice cream was definitely the cherry on top! Our server was so attentive and took great care of us! We had reservations at 10pm and were done eating dinner at 10:40pm. 🥰 THANKS HAYWIRE.

I can’t say enough good things about this place! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. But the real star of the experience? Roque. Roque went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. His attention to detail, kindness, and knowledge of the menu made our meal even more special. He had excellent recommendations, and in particular the wine pairing recommendation with our dish. The food itself was outstanding—perfectly done, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. But it was Roque’s incredible service that truly set this experience apart. If you’re looking for a restaurant that delivers both amazing food and top-tier service, this is the place. Highly recommend, and if you go, be sure to ask for Roque! You won’t be disappointed.

I can’t get enough of this place at all. Great food, Great environment, Great Everything. I will admit I went 2-13-25 and my food was amazing until I got my southern fried chicken and it was too salty. BUT, they brought out another fresh order quickly, and it was perfect. This place is literally perfect!

The cuisine is a delicious blend of Southern Comfort with a Southern Louisiana flare. If you haven't had the lobster & crawfish pot pie and are a fan of seafood then this will certainly not disappoint! The bar always does a fine job crafting our beverages and the service has always been warm and friendly. Do yourself a favor and grab the biscuit and pimiento cheese appetizers. While the bread that comes with the cheese may be delicious, do yourself a favor and try it on the biscuit with a tad bit of that honey for a delicious sweet & savory treat! Another plus is that this is adjacent to the base of the free parking garage elevator (on the AMC & Pinstripes side) so parking is typically not a deal breaker with making it to your reservation on time. The atmosphere is more of a business casual to special occasion type dress. If you're in your jeans and boots with a nice shirt on you're typically right on point with the rest of the crowd. Give Fixe a shot. I'm certain you won't be disappointed!

We had reservation for Feb 11th for a table of 13 (business meal). Everything from the service, our waitress Summer was amazing, to the food and location were absolutely phenomenal. The sous chef came out and checked on us a few times to ensure we were satisfied with our meals and service. This experience was a 10/10 and we will be back!
