We wanted to grab something before Acl live and this was close and service was quick too. Drinks we think it's probably the best espresso martini ever as not too strong in coffee or alcohol and more about flavor. We also had great server in Paola who gave champagne on the house as we are newlyweds which was so thoughtful. Ambiance was great high end. Sunset views are great and they have shades for summer time. Pork chops were so tender and the sauce was so good. Shishito peppers were spicy so not for those who can't handle it but we loved it. Burrata and beets were roasted perfectly and filet so was tender and sauce was awesome. We were in and out in under an hour with great server Paola, we will be back. read more

Very cool space- be mindful of timing because it does fill up quickly so service slowed down. Decor inside the bar is moody and cool, but bathrooms had multiple stalls OOC and the bar gets full quickly. (Full disclosure we were there on a Friday night at 9ish so waiting a bit is not unusual at all!) Our bartender Kai was very friendly and knowledgeable about the drinks. Their espresso martini is excellent and so was the French 76! Cosmo was also good but they have *very* tart cranberry juice so just keep that in mind. The color was perfect but I pivoted after having one. read more

We stayed at Hotel Zaza and eating at Group Therapy was a fabulous part of our visit! We had drinks at the pool one day and had a GREAT dinner another. First and most importantly...our server, Jocelyn! She was a delight. It was early on a Monday so we got to chat and she gave us great suggestions for our dinner and for other things to do on our trip as well. We loved her! We had a Caesar salad, beet and burrata salad (which doubles as a side!) and miso roasted Chilean sea bass. All sooo good! We also had a dessert that was out of this world but I don't know what it was called!! It was like lava cake but with olive oil cake? Bread pudding? Maybe my pic will do it justice. Really wish we were gonna be back in Austin just to eat here again! read more

My daughter had her bridal luncheon there. It was beyond fabulous and I am very very picky. They did not complain about balloons. They did not complain about me bringing signs. They did not complain anything. The hotel staff brought everything up for me from my car for the party and they helped me come back down and everyone was so nice. Patricia was the best waitress all of our food came out hot and delicious. They put us in a very nice spot. It was not overcrowded. I rate it 10/10! read more

Came in with a large party for an early morning brunch. The service was good and our waitress was very attentive. Everyone enjoyed their meals and drinks. The aesthetic was pleasing and very picture worthy, which is why we chose this place for our bride to be! It has a great view of the skyline. I will say if your party is large, they will only split between three cards. So, be prepared. read more

I love this bar and patio. They have delicious handcrafted cocktails made in a beautiful setting with rooftop views and great people watching. They are posh comfy couches and chairs outside to sit and enjoy your drink and snack. I really enjoyed the DJ on Saturday afternoon. read more

When I arrived (around 4PM on a Sunday in January), the place was quiet; both the bar and cabana area were nearly empty, with only one other table of guests outside. The staff were incredibly friendly, and bonus points: the restroom was very nice. The rooftop setup includes an indoor bar area with seating and an outdoor cabana space with poolside seating (no glass allowed in this area). As for the view: you don't get much skyline unless you're seated right at the edge of the rooftop, but the atmosphere makes up for it. The combination of the pool and surrounding high-rise buildings gives it this cool industrial-meets-tropical vibe. The street view below, however, is pretty unremarkable. Finding the bar is easy as it's listed on the elevator directory. When you get off the elevator, turn right and keep walking, and you'll run right into Group Therapy. What I Ordered Crispy Brussels Sprouts -- $12 Runaway Mocktail -- $15 Both were delicious. The Brussels sprouts came in a massive portion and were super flavorful. The mocktail was bright and refreshing without being too sweet. read more

Such a great experience on a Friday night! We came here after dinner for some drinks in their outdoor patio. The vibes was relaxing and the service was phenomenal. Bryan was our server and he was attentive and gave great recommendations. Highly recommend this as a sunset or post dinner spot for date night or a group night out! read more

I went to Group Therapy for a friend's birthday, and I'll start by saying the decor and overall vibe were really fun. It's definitely a visually exciting spot and feels like a great place to celebrate something special. That said, the experience didn't quite live up to expectations. The food and drinks were extremely expensive for what you get. We tried several cocktails, and unfortunately I didn't enjoy any of them. Even the mocktails were priced around $15, which felt a bit excessive. The lamb chops were definitely a highlight--they were delicious--but they were pricey and didn't come with any sides, which made the value feel off. One of the most frustrating parts of the night was the billing situation. Before being seated, we were told we could split into three separate checks, but when it was time to pay, we were told it had to be all on one check. That made things unnecessarily complicated and left a bit of a sour note at the end of the night. Overall, while the atmosphere is fun and great for photos or celebrations, the high prices, disappointing drinks, and miscommunication about payment would make me think twice about coming back. read more

The food was ok, but we enjoyed the large portions of entrees and delicious volcano salt garlic fries. We tried the beef tenderloin sliders and buttermilk dipped chicken breasts. My friend liked her blue crab and lemon butter linguini. The ambience seems a bit outdated but the booths are nicely cushioned. We did love the library like wall filled with books in the back room. The food and drinks came out quickly. Good service. First two hours of parking is complimentary. read more

Service was great and my group was able to sit in the 'library' (the portion surrounded by books) and loved the ambiance it provided. Food was also very good, although at times the portions were either way larger or smaller than anticipated (fries should be shared lol). Definitely a nice place to have dinner with a friend or two! read more

Came here for a work function where we had the back area reserved for our company. Good space for stand and chat; then to follow with dinner. This restaurant/bar is on the 7th floor of Hotel Zaza. Beautiful space! Great drink options from cocktails to a nice option of reds and white. I like that they have designated drink options for light cocktails with option to go full virgin! I enjoyed my spicy mango marg and the classic espresso martini very much. Food options are great too! read more

The vibe of Hotel Zaza carries through to Group Therapy. The space itself is large, which a big nook in the back of the restaurant where one could host 10-15 folks somewhat intimately, but still part of the scene. In fact, there was a bachelorette party on one of the evenings we frequented the bar. The bar is modern in style, with some quirky, retro, cool and unique features throughout. A long marble top bar, with room for 15 or so patrons to belly up to. There are some sofa two tops and booths inside, as well as some seating outside by the pool. On our stop, after checking in, we were hankering some lunch. The menu was simple enough, with several different selections to fill your belly with. Suzie opted for the Green Goddess Bowl and added chicken to the mix. I choose the Spicy Chicken Sammie. We also added a side for fries, which was an awesome decision. Thin, garlicky and salty potato strips. You know, kind of like I'm just going to have a couple and as long as they are in front of you, you continue to stuff your pie hole with them good. My sammie was moist, very crispy hand battered it seemed, chicken breast with a spicy chipotle mayo. Certainly could of been more spicy for me, but an excellent bite none the less. Suzie's salad had a huge hammered thin breast of chicken grilled on top of a large salad with Summer Greens, Crisp Cucumber, Shaved Fennel, Edamame, Avocado, Toasted Seeds, Pickled Red Onions, Crumbled Feta and Green Goddess dressing. Very Mediterranean and rather healthy, delicious to boot. We popped in again for drinks in the evening and the mood was festive and busy. Lots of folks having fun, drinking and carrying on. A couple of lads at the bar were well into their evening and choose to come over to where we were sitting on the couch at a two top, taking in the scene and people watching. They kind of inserted themselves into our evening, but not for to long. One of them wandered off, while his friend remained a little longer until he made his way back up to the bar. Juan the host, came over and asked if we were doing okay and made apologies for the boys, we were fine. He also let us know they weren't guests, one of the lads was a regular and management had an eye on them. Management did indeed have and eye on them, since a little while later, they were asked to leave. This is not the experience they wanted for folks frequenting the bar. I think that Juan and the management really speaks to the level of service at Group Therapy. On the occasions we were there, the bartenders and servers were all personable, helpful and efficient in their jobs. Pleasant to interact with but not a distraction to our experience. This is also the vibe that everyone we interacted with at Hotel Zaza carried during our stay. Wouldn't hesitate to drop in again when downtown. read more

Although the views are nice the food isn't the best. I tried the spicy mango margarita which was so spicy it wasn't that enjoyable. The hushpuppies were overcooked and the spicy chicken sandwich was subpar. Fries are shoestring fries and there was an automatic gratuity placed on a table of 6 while things like bread were brought out an hour after the fact and drinks weren't often refilled. Not pictured were the lamp chop lollipops that were not well cooked read more

Group Therapy, located on the rooftop of Hotel ZaZa, is always a great time! The atmosphere is stylish and perfect for photos, especially with the charming rooftop setting. The menu features high-quality American cuisine--portions are generous and great for sharing, though prices are a bit on the higher side, which is expected given the hotel setting. Cocktails run about $18-$20, but they're well-crafted and worth it. Brunch is a staple here and definitely worth checking out. A go-to spot for good vibes, great food, and rooftop views! read more

Upon entering Group Therapy, my first impression was, "cuuuuuuteeee", in my typical happy tone when I find something impressive. The decor is cute; a modern ambiance with a demure vibe. However, the food falls short of expectations. I came for brunch and wasn't too impressed. Like the seasons, the menu changes. During my visit, I had the Crab Cake Benedict. Surprisingly, the breading on the crab cake was light and flaky, with a subtle lemon flavor that made it refreshing. The Benedict wasn't served on the traditional English muffin, but I think this was a positive change, as it allowed the crab cake to take center stage. Unfortunately, I think I got lucky with my dish, as the meals of my party didn't look as appetizing. TLDR: the decor fits the new "demure" standards, drinks are pricey, the food is safe, but not exceptional. read more

I ordered the hamburger and fries Patricia Serve me everything was amazing.The food and the service

Food was great and Dee was a fantastic server! The atmosphere was pretty cool as well.

Great ambience and service. We didn't have reservations but were seated within minutes as it wasn't too busy on a Saturday night. Our server was super nice and attentive. The drinks were meh and pretty overpriced for what they were. The food was really bland. Both the cheeseburger and chicken wrap seemed to be lacking any seasoning. Vibes and decor were awesome but the food and drinks just didn't hit for us. read more

Great service and wonderful drinks!! That Miso Caramel Espresso Martini is so delicious, though the price is steep. The environment was very laid back and relaxing. My only gripe was the food. We got the fries to start, which were delicious, but the fried chicken dish I got was beyond greasy. I felt like I could taste the fryer oil. The mashed potatoes and veggies were great, however, and the chicken itself (under all the breading) was well-cooked. My boyfriend also loved his burger. Overall, 4/5, for me. Good experience but I'd have to try something different on the menu next time. read more
