Hayward House Bistro

"So the service was amazing and the food definately top shelf. This is where perception and expectation meet. This place is so fancy, that one expects more. It is the little things in life. After the starters, the server removed the side plates and with that the forks we used... But they never brought us fresh forks. Now of it was just me, I could put it down to oversight, but none of us received fresh forks. Great place to meet friends for a meal and a drink. Their old fashioned whiskey is pretty good."

"Great spot in downtown Tallahassee. Right iron the corner of where the festivities happen... Great drinks and food. Sat outside. Service took a little bit but was worth the wait."

"Beautiful restaurant. I attended the FSU College of Medicine’s Christmas party, and will definitely be returning soon. The food and service were amazing. Great seating area outside, and valet parking is available."

"A solid addition to the Tallahassee food scene. My cocktail was tasty and not too strong (under the magnolia) and they provided a non-alcoholic version for my friend. My main (redfish) was cooked well with a surprisingly tasty rice side that may have a been a sneaky highlight. The broccolini was somehow overcooked yet tasted burnt. :/ Her mussels were excellent and the fries were yum! Service was solid and the dessert (which could definitely be shared) wasn’t too sweet but still hit the spot."

"Disappointed for sure. We understand it’s only been open for a few days, but. We sat at the bar and our server was fantastic. Ordered the Poutine and it came out with cold fries ( now bear in mind I’m a Canadian and know Poutine). They fixed the cold fries but the gravy had little flovour and was not hot enough to melt the cheese curds. The blackened redfish wrap had little flovour other than salt. The French dip had very little beef and tasted like it came from a Sysco pre made plate. And yes fries came out cold again."
