Located off Anderson Mill in the corner of a strip mall is a bookshelf with a door on the right side. If you cannot figure out the entrance, there is a doorbell to ring as well. I believe it is owned by the same people who own The Mill bar right next door, which makes it feel like a cool bonus space. My friend and I sat next to a faux fireplace, where we were greeted by the only bartender working and placed our order. Once he opened the tab, it was disappointing that he never came back to check if we wanted another drink. It wasn't super busy on the Monday we went, but since he was the only one manning the bar, the bartender was always doing something, so I don't blame him fully for not checking back in with us. I ordered a drink called the Velvet Vice. It looked nothing like the picture and tasted similar to an Aviation cocktail with egg whites. I happened to really like it. It is a very relaxed space, but once the speakeasy gimmick wears off, it does not have much else going for it. It is still a cool place, but I am not sure it was worth the lengthy drive to get there.

They have a trivia event that they host weekly that draws a healthy crowd and there are some other things I have yet to identify. Early in the evening, when things are slow and theater goers are grabbing drinks before a movie, the bartender still tends to be friendly and quick with service. I'm a lightweight. When I kill time before and movie and stupidly decide to leave my tab open, of course I have to go close it. If there's a decent crowd, it's still easy to do. The bartender doesn't ignore me. Drinks are being served and I'm quickly attended to. It's awesome. Finally, a movie note: you can order a drink to take into the theater.

We were looking forward to trying a few different drinks, but unfortunately the experience was disappointing from start to finish. When we arrived, the bartender wasn't welcoming and seemed more inconvenienced than interested in helping us. I asked about an advertised special and was told they were out. I then asked if they had a whiskey list so I could see what was available for an Old Fashioned, but was initially told no because they were "redoing the pricing." I had to clarify that I wasn't asking about prices, I simply wanted to know what whiskeys they carried. Instead of providing any guidance, we were told to look at the bottles behind the bar and choose from those. After ordering, we were informed they were out of oranges and asked if we wanted a lemon slice instead. At a bar that specializes in whiskey, not having oranges for one of the most classic whiskey cocktails was surprising. We declined the lemon, and the Old Fashioneds themselves were below average, especially considering the price. To make matters worse, another employee came over while we were sitting there and began loudly complaining about how slow business was, using profanity within earshot of customers. It came across as unprofessional and only added to the poor overall experience. The bar wasn't busy, there were multiple bartenders and only a handful of customers, so it was disappointing that the service still felt inattentive and unwelcoming. We had planned on spending the evening there and trying more than one drink, but after our first round we decided to leave and go somewhere else. I don't mind paying premium prices for quality drinks and good service, but this experience delivered neither.

Manny is a wizard, and this well marg is pure alchemy…read more Look, I've logged serious field research when it comes to happy hour margaritas across this town. I have consumed the good, the bad, and the distinctly "tastes like floor cleaner and bad decisions." So when I say a well margarita blew me away, please understand the weight of that statement. Usually, a well marg is something you order when you've decided quality is optional and saving five bucks is mandatory. Not here. Enter Manny. Manny isn't just bartending; he's running a high-level liquid chemistry lab behind that bar. This house recipe of his defies every known law of budget tequila. Whatever magic ratio he's using, it completely skips the usual sour-mix heartburn and goes straight to refreshing, perfectly balanced perfection. Smooth, freshly squeezed taste, and just enough kick to make you realize you're definitely calling an Uber. If you come here, sit at the bar and ask for Manny's house margarita. Hands down the best well drink in the city. Just leave a solid tip, because the man is out here doing public service work.

It's definitely a neighborhood bar, but with a slightly elevated vibe that makes you feel like you stumbled into the nice version of a local hangout, not the sticky‑floor kind. I ordered three rounds of Hendrick's and tonic, and my partner went with four rounds of Tito's and Sprite. When the bill came out to $140, I had to take a quiet moment with myself. Yes, Hendrick's is top shelf, but even with that in mind... whew. That total felt a little ambitious for a neighborhood bar in Cedar Park. I'm all for a good cocktail, but I also know what these pours cost elsewhere, and this pricing didn't quite match the setting. That said, the service was excellent. Our bartender was attentive, quick, and had that perfect balance of friendly without being overly chatty. She kept an eye on the bar, and we never had to wait long for a refill -- which I appreciated, especially since the place wasn't packed. Honestly, the smooth service was the highlight of the night. The vibe itself is cool -- a little eclectic, a little upscale, and clearly a favorite for the local crowd. It's the kind of place you go when you want to unwind without dealing with the Domain crowd or the chaos of downtown Austin. I can absolutely see why people love it. But between the drink prices and the overall experience, this is one of those spots I'd visit occasionally, not regularly. A cute neighborhood bar? Yes. A $140‑for‑seven‑drinks bar? Not for me.

I'm a big fan of the spicy beef noodles. Love the bouncy chewy noodles with the fresh bok choy. You can see the photos I took the soft, long cooked braised beef cuts. I am very surprised the beef is very tender extremely tender and love the the big cuts of gelatinous goodness. Tendons for capital T for tender. The broth has a strong beef flavor and overall great dish. The pad Thai on the other hand, it's a good attempt at Pad Thai but in my opinion is too sugary. Love the noodles with the peanuts on top. You have the soft noodles with the crunchy peanuts. It adds a nice contrast of crunchy and soft at the same time. You can see the sliced carrots and the beef. I also added chicken. It's a good dish, but it's in my opinion missing more bean sprouts and it needed more tamarin sauce. More fish sauce, and it would've been nice to add stirfry basil so you could taste the basil leaves when you stirfry it. It's also missing eggs. Maybe I didn't see any of it.

Great portions all around; order two dishes and you'll have a whole feast. Lunch deals are a great value but even dinner pricing is very reasonable, too. It's an ideal spot for a low-key meal since it's usually not too busy, not loud, not flashy, and not the type of place that attracts annoying wannabe influencers.

No one at front desk ever answered questions. Folks yelled for service, but manager hid in back, no kidding. For real! One old guy asked for a refund. He was very polite but had waited 25 minutes. The manager refused to refund him until the poor man threatened to call the cops. Whereupon the manager refunded him in cash! Outrageous. A few savaged customers who had earlier tried to complain took their food after 40 minutes waiting and left, dejected by the entire humiliating experience. But they kept moaning about "how hungry I am" and "how I can't wait to just get back to my apartment now." They were too beaten to even muster hope for their tawdry sack of already oily leaking, paper bag staining order. It was brutal. A lot of good people were brutalized this night, and few, if any, will ever get the recognition they so steeply deserve. After all, their only crime was waiting forever for bad food and being subject to stress tests randomly applied by a grinning, absentee manager. Gotta admit the floor show was entertaining, especially when the screaming manager told the old dude "we don't refund here" and the old guy went all John Wayne mode on his ass. Didn't take long for the manager to pop open the cash register then! LOL! I about wet myself watching that bit go down, especially when the beaten manager waived the refund cash but refused eye contact. The old man called him an "as*****!" as he left, dropping the mic. Astonishing! So, 5-stars for the amazing local dinner theater show, even if impromptu (and all the more amazing for it), but the service was below awful and the food a starchy, gooey mess. The manager was just tossing it into a wok for a minute from a frozen bag, and you could see this "prep" going on from the front while you indefinitely waited. Fun, but only if you're into really, really awful food and really don't like yourself and/or your dining companions.
