What Mikey likes about Hayes Street Grill:
The food was so delicious with multiple layers of flavor! The shrimp salad and the fish was so tasty, and the fries were sooo delicious! Michaela was our waitstaff and she is the absolute Best! Overall, it was a fabulous and memorable experience!!!!!!!! View all feedback. What FoodEnthusiast doesn't like about Hayes Street Grill:
Food is fine but nothing to be super excited about (especially for price). Food cost not worth the quality. Also menu is very limited and while online there are more options (meat etc), at the restaurant the menu is a lot shorter. Would not dine again View all feedback.

Hayes Street Grill offers a mixed dining experience with a variety of opinions from customers. While some found the food bland, overpriced, and lacking in flavor, others enjoyed the delicious dishes, especially the seafood options. The service received mixed reviews, with some mentioning rushed service but others praising the efficiency. The restaurant's proximity to Davies Hall and the Symphony makes it a convenient choice for pre-theatre dining. Despite some criticisms of the prices and portion sizes, many customers appreciated the cozy atmosphere and overall dining experience Hayes Street Grill offers. Whether you are looking for a quick meal before a show or a more leisurely dining experience, Hayes Street Grill has something to offer.

Shrimp salad and smoked trout toast terrific. Petrale wonderful. SKIP THE PAELLA, assembled from separately cooked items. Edible, but truly disappointing.

This is a great place to eat before the opera. We have been coming here for years and have always enjoyed it.
