    This is behind Parlay House. If you accidentally park behind Lustre Pearl you're in for a long walk! Oops. It's part of an interesting complex of a half dozen bars that I've never visited before, and Reset is apparently brand new. The inside is actually pretty small with a long bar in the center surrounded by arcade machines all lining the back wall, and a few other things for variety like a couple skee ball lanes, basketball hoop machine, a pool table, and even a virtual golf game that looks impressive. There's also a DJ booth in one corner and a couple wet couches in front of a big TV. I don't know if they're only temporarily wet or if this was a weird tactile illusion, but I noped out of there. In the backyard it's AstroTurf and picnic tables with umbrellas and a small bar in a shipping container. There's a ping pong table and giant Connect Four, and a stairway upstairs to the small roof deck with more picnic tables. Overall it's new and slick with lots of LED lights, but it's a very soulless crypto-frat vibe. The arcade games are modern and expensive, the music is incredibly loud, and nothing is warm and inviting, it's all very cold and electronic. And cramped! Since the backyard and rooftop were a ghost town when I was there, everybody was inside making it so crowded there was no passing, and no using some of the games that were blocked by drinkers. Today was a sort of grand opening party even though it's been open for a little bit, it seems. So it may not always be like this, but for 6pm on a Sunday this was a lot.

    A tad disappointed in our experience here. It's super close to where we live so we walked there on a Saturday afternoon. First, three of the beers listed on their menu they didn't have... we actually thought the bartender might've been joking but they weren't. My guy ended up ordering a water (not why we came here). The service was also sub-par -- each time we walked up to the bar, bartenders would be shootin' the you-know-what with each other with zero urgency for the customer. Or they would walk completely past us, making zero eye contact. What in the world? Second, some of the games do not work. Our card was charged repeatedly because the game jammed so we had to unplug the machine. The bartender told us that if the charge on our card was more than anticipated to give them a call and they'd fix it. That's a really nice gesture considering, but I don't think others will want their cards charged for games not played. Lastly, mirroring the other review here -- do not waste your money in the Photo Booth. This felt like a total money grab - really uncool.

Bright and sunny, wide open with lots of natural light, tasteful hanging planters, and minimalist decor, there's nowhere to hide. It's a place to see and be seen, but not nearly as pretentious as that sounds. They just care about the details and it shows, including the attentive service and well balanced drinks. Though I feel like I should crawl back into the dark, dank dive bars that I know best, it's a gorgeous breath of fresh air for those good hair days. Generous parking lot, easy off the highway, good evening hours. The only thing I'll knock it for is being so far south! Anyone in the neighborhood has better treasure this place, since I won't be able to get out there that often.

This entire place feels like a cash grab following the mezcal trend. It's positioned as being a tequila/mezcal spot but their drinks are more basic than cocktails I can order at the airport. When I asked questions about the mezcal they use and offer the bartenders replies were always dealt with either annoyance and limited info or just an "I don't know." Plus it's $$$ you tip on top of the tip they already add but say nothing about? The basic cocktails that are known as Mexican street vendor drinks (not supposed to be $$$) can cost you over $20 alone! Then to be shady about tipping ... cash grab without a good experience. The there's the atmosphere... very limited parking shared with MANY other more busy bars, super loud inside because of no soft surfaces, and the worst part of all... the bench seats are built just tall enough that unless you're super tall, you'll have to sit at the edge of the bench and actively practice good posture. This more than the other things makes me want to leave immediately. You designed a bar to be pretty but in no way functional to its use. It's been a while since my last visit and honestly I chalked all this up to Austin's trend chasing entrepreneurs typical disconnected launch until I had AMAZING cocktails at another new spot that truly impressed with their same priced cocktails that were far far more intricate and creative PLUS they didn't try to con me out of more tip AND their space was warm, and inviting with truly exceptional customer service. That experience reminded me that inflation isn't the only thing making life more expensive ... it's also businesses delivering far less value than promised and demanding we are supremely grateful for their limited effort. If you don't want to leave the neighborhood but you still want a somewhat decent margarita .... it ain't here. Pay half the price at Bodhi's in the same parking lot.

Meridian is in downtown Buda and is connected to Zoi Wellness. We were able to park in the parking lot across the street. Upon walking in, the space had a rustic loft feel with lots of greenery. The furniture made it feel very cozy. I honestly didn't expect to find a coffee shop like this in Buda. The barista was very nice and gave recommendations. My mom and I both ordered Iced Pecan Pie Lattes which was a seasonal drink that they were featuring. We ordered our drinks to go, but then decided to sit in the cafe and enjoy our beverages. The coffee is legit! We both liked our beverages. I really enjoyed the pecan flavor and the sweetness level was perfect. The barista informed us that they make all of their syrups in house. I noticed that there were plenty of outlets for work or study. There's quite a bit of seating including couches. They have QR codes at each table that you can order from which is so convenient. In addition to coffee (which is served until 5 pm), they also have wellness drinks, wine, beer and cocktails. They have a nice sized stage for live music. I would love to go back in the evening for a cocktail and live music! I'm so happy to have discovered this gem in Buda!
