Best Steak Restaurants in The Colony

We took advantage of the Senior menu. Our food was excellent! Service was outstanding. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening with good friends!

Food would have received 5 stars but one steak came out undercooked. Other than that minor thing, the food and service was excellent. Don’t love the dining room compared to some other area steakhouses, but it was fine. It was bustling due to it being Valentine’s Day… I liked how they had a holiday pre-set menu but also allowed you to order off of the regular dinner menu. Great wine selection and the pre-dinner martini was perfect. Loved our waiter and the manager came over to check on us.

There’s a reason Fogo is a Dallas founded (first geography in the US) icon. It is an amazing establishment that meets all your lofty expectations of a place like this. The Legacy West location and details in one of their flagship restaurants under their HQ is amazing. The city lights and amazing LVMH/Richemont/Kering brands line the steet with glitsy window displays. Prices are currently $64/person for Market Table and open churrasqueira). The food is excellent which meets expectations at that price point and the aura of Fogo. I’d pick Fogo over most other standard steakhouse in Dallas. There are lots of inspired upstart Brazilian Steakhouses building on the laurels of the founding team at Fogo (no thanks to Bain Capital). You’re paying about 10–15% more than other similar places. So just know you can get equally good food for slightly less in a more modest venue. Just be aware you’re paying for the name, their expensive real estate in Legacy, and Private equity returns (owned by Bain Capital). Nonetheless - I love its Dallas origins and what that founding team have done and sold/exited their amazing concept. I’d encourage folks to check out Fogo in addition to others like 12 cuts.

Our waiter Brian has made the experience one to remember. From his recommendations to personality, he made sure to be honest with his feedback from our questions to ensure we had a wonderful experience. Also, we came specially on this night to see/hear the band Mahogany Trio. They’re the best to do it in this environment playing a variety of genres of music that will surely have you smiling, singing along, and two stepping by around the bar (lol). We will definitely be back.

My wife and I had a wonderful time at Haywire Plano. We came on a Tuesday and was surprised to how busy it was, but that was no concern as we had reservations in place and we're seated pretty swiftly. For our starter we had the mini Elk tacos which were pretty good. For the main course I ordered the 18oz Angus Bone-In Cowboy Ribeye with a side of the White cheddar havarti mac&cheese and Tallow fries. The Ribeye was cooked to perfection and the taste was amazing. My wife ordered the Texas farm raised red fish which came with jumbo lump crab&rock shrimp, spicy lemon zydeco sauce, whipped potatoes and a frisée citrus salad. Per my wife it was an amazing meal. When we go back I'll be trying the 33oz Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye.
