EXCEPTIONAL!!!

by Foody Guy

We've been dozens of times, and we'll go dozens more. They have done a really wonderful job with this restaurant. The fresh new look and the new menu are extremely enjoyable. Very happy to see some of the menu's best items have stayed, while the new additions are equally delicious! I've had almost everything on the menu, and without exception, all are worth recommending. The halibut and Maguire's Salad are a MUST! Kudos to the staff and owners at Maguire's! Their passionate devotion to exceptional food, service and astmosphere keep us coming back for more!

• Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere!
• Cons: Distance . . . we need a Maguire's in Austin!

Great Food, Great Atmosphere

by mustang93

My wife and I ate at Maguire's last Friday for the first time since they remodeled. The food was as good as ever, and the update looks great. My wife had the fish special, and I had the beef. Both were excellent. Like everyone else in town, they had taken tomatoes off of the menu, so we tried the bbq chicken flat-bread for the first time (we've gotten the southwest flat-bread before). It was outstanding, too. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and we had a wonderful time. We will be returning soon. Highly recommended in all regards.

• Pros: Food quality, service, atmosphere
• Cons: None

WOW--LOVE the remodel!

by tinkerbellbarbie

Maguires has long been a family favorite, and we have always loved the decor, but the remodel really rocks! The whole look is stunning from the floor-length drapes to the very chic new dining chairs...awesome! We were happy to see that all of our faves were still on the menu, though...especially the meatloaf and the maple-ginger glazed salmon, among others. We had the fish special with some amazing couscous and it blew us away. Still have a kickin wine list...and our server told us that there will be new stuff added to the menu soon, so we will definitely be back in the next few weeks to see what awaits our taste buds! Definitely put it on your summer to-do list!

Terrible Steaks

by quake4

The steaks were terrible, I had the center cut prime ribeye and my wife had the cracked peppercorn new york strip. Mine was cooked correctly but the steak was chewy and my wife's was overcooked and tough as well. The table behind us also complained about their food, I don't know what they had. We ordered desserts, my lava cake was ok to good but the rum bread pudding of my wife's was terrible. It was tasteless, the rum sauce was terrible, no taste of rum, and just seemed that it was simply placed in the microwave oven because it was warm and cold throughout and not even, hot spots and cold spots like microwaved food. Seems that people are not going there, very few on a friday night and the ones that were there was a group that was simply rude and innapropriate. They were never told to be mindful of other patrons. We will not be going back. The service was good but the food was subpar at best considering for 2 people the bill was 124.00 dollars. For that price of steaks I expect a whole lot more. better to pay another 10 to 20 dollars and go to a true steak house like III forks, Ruth's Chris, or Silver Fox. Those beat Maguire's hands down and their bread pudding is to die for. Hope this helps, wish some of these other reviews were true, would have saved us a terrible food dining experience and money, well we would have gone to one of the other one's.

• Pros: None really
• Cons: Terrible food for the price, even if it were cheaper, on the level of chili's

WOW!!!! Great great great!!!!!

by wendyyork

You really have to try this place, from the salmon to the steaks and the entree salads, this place is a two thumbs up! The lounge is a great place to meet and greet as well, nice sized booths and a bar stool seating that is not overcrowded and lound like most places that are this great. My favorite dish is the rib eye!!! Call for a reservation.... they fill up fast!

• Pros: The brunch is amazing!!!! I love the rib eye for dinner too!
• Cons: fills up fast, so make a reservation.

Ok food that is overpriced

by lizparham

The food is rarly consistent here and just barely above average. For the price that is not good enough. I felt the meals and the wine list was overpriced for the quality. Once I had a great special, a trout with a lemon butter sauce, excellent. But the next time I got salmon thinking it would be as good and it was kind of greasy with way too much butter.

Good time to go is happy hour, great drink speacials and the bar food is pretty good.

• Pros: Convenient, good happy hour drinks
• Cons: over priced, the fabrics they picked make it feel like a vegas casino

Good food in a comfortable, yet upscale atmosphere.

by hooked96

Maguires is a place where you can dress up or down and feel right at ease. The atmosphere is good and the food is wonderful. They always have amazing daily specials that are a great value. I've been to this place no less than 20 times, ordering something different each time, and I've never been disappointed. Good value for a great experience.

Great EVERYTHING!!!

by wine_o88

Maguire's is a great value. The staff is very helpful and informative. The bar is a great place to unwind and have an appetizer or a full meal. We have been going here for years and have never had a bad experience either with the food or the service!! It is a great place for a first date or a "girl's night" Half price wine on Sunday is amazing!! The barstaff is EXTREMELY helpful and will steer you in the right direction as to what will complement your meal the best!! A++++

• Pros: Great staff...Great food!!
• Cons: Haven't seen one!!!
