    We came here twice with some friends while on a mini get away (we are from New Jersey). the first time we went to this place was around 4 pm, the place was kind of empty ( I guess it was too early to start drinking), but the owner was so nice to us at the door that we decided to give it a try. The bartender was very friendly, and knew how to sell. ( he made this drink sound so appetizing that we ended up ordering 2 rounds, it was pretty good!!) we came back to the place later that night. The owner recognized us, and asked us to come in. He told the security guy at the door that we were good to let us in and he did, he let everyone in BUT ME!!! I asked him what was the problem that the boss said we were good and he asked me for ID. Then one of my friends stepped out to see if everything was ok, I told her that the security guy didn't let me in after the boss said we were ok, and the security guy said " If you don't like it go somewhere else" I was the only BLACK in the group, so you do the math!!!!!!!! then owner finally came out and apologized and told us that the security spent many years in the military and that's why he is like that. to be honest I don't know what does being in military has to do with being RACIST!!!

    We came here while on a bachelorette. Ambiance: Spacious and good vibes Service: Everyone was super nice. We had reserved a table and got free champagne bottles. The music was quite good but unfortunately the day we went the place was pretty empty, maybe because it was Sunday. If I were to return to Austin again, I would definitely pass by again.

    We went back in June for my friend's birthday! We contacted a host via the website and was quoted prices for bottles. It was VERY decently priced, especially since we're from chicago. We showed up a little later than what we said, but he still gave us the price we were quoted and gave us a bottle of champagne. It's a small bar/club but we had so much fun. The music is hip hop and throwbacks. It's right on 6th street, so was walkable from our hotel. I don't think there's a dress code, since it's 6th street but we went in with sandals and gym shoes but with dresses on since it was a celebration!

    I came here with a bachelorette party and they gave us free bottles of champagne and a reserved table! Music wasn't too loud. Definitely a good start to our night on Dirty Sixth!

    Good dance club, with reasonably priced drinks, the only thing is can be hit or miss from a "crowd feel"

    The drinks were terrible. I've never felt the need to complain to a bartender. It was soda water with blue dye.

My favorite part was the DJ was also playing electric guitar to accompany some of the songs in his lineup. It was really cool. I've never seen a DJ do that before. The whole time we were there the service and ambience and tastes were top-notch, but the DJ piece really created a memorable experience that leaves me wanting to come back.

But it was more important to the Powder Room that the next group got their table on time, apparently. The drinks took soooo long, we got ONE round in, and were asked to leave the table before our second round arrived. They had no issues when taking our second round order while we were seated, but we were asked to leave the table immediately after. This round also took forever and we drank it standing, crowded, in everyone's way. I was embarrassed as it was my birthday, and I was taking a group of 7 other people - new to Austin - here to check out what was one of my favorite spots. I was bragging about it and chose it over other spots on their list. They hated it. I'm disappointed. Our server was great to us and apologetic about the service bar.

We weren't looking for much by way of menu just a few snacks or small bites for Girl Dinner. We found just that here. The Sumac and pepper popcorn was to die for! I really don't drink that much or often, but decided to have one. The drink list is extensive, but very organized by era. I decided to go for the Zombie. My server, Noah encouraged my audacity! I can't remember whether it was described as dramatic as it showed up, but let me tell you there was drama! It was served in a flaming skull, garnished with beautiful flowers and fresh fruit, and filled to the brim with God knows how much alcohol and juice, but it was a time! To heighten the experience, he sprinkled something in a shaker and the flames just erupted! The whole restaurant stopped and I cackled! To put out the flame, Noah gave one dramatic clap, and the flame disappear disappeared! I want to thank Noah and the team for encouraging my ridiculousness and delivering me an excellent craft drink with all the drama I deserved and could ever ask for! 10/10! Gotta go back to see how much more ridiculous I can go! Can't stop now! Join me!

Walls are lined with vintage books. Overall, I think this is a cool place. I look forward to returning.

This is gonna be located on the fifth floor in the JW Marriott. You have to walk through the pool area as this is on the west side of the building. Well, we didn't have a reservation and we were able to get sat right away. I forget the name of the individual who assisted us by placing our order. I ended up getting the espresso martini, and then my other person got an old-fashioned. I was asked if I wanted a shot of Bailey's with the espresso martini and that to me would've been way too much. The martini itself was almost kind of smoky. Not your typical kind of very crisp espresso martini had a nice foam on top of it. We also ended up ordering the sliders to go along as we had dinner reservations, and that bacon jam on there is magnificent. The sliders were all juicy and very well put together bun was very soft and the flavor of everything was really good. I would totally go back just for the sliders. Overall the service was great. The views were also quite stunning of downtown and the ambience overall which is very chill.

The couches were so comfortable and the ambiance was so pretty. In terms of the drinks and food, it was okay! Got the job done, but nothing to rave about. I enjoyed the sliders the most. I enjoyed my drink as well (5th Floor Cooldown) once we added the extra sweetener we requested. Without it, I wasn't a huge fan (wasn't sweet, despite being told that it was). Valet parking is only $15 (for 2 hours) with validation. I appreciated that, as it made parking not a headache.

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.
