     bottles of vodka
    Edwyn A.

    Came here for dollar days and almost everything was on sale. They have a decent wine selection too. It isn't as big as the big box liquor stores but if your shopping at H‑E‑B and need to make a liquor stop this place will do. Outside of dollar days they are more expensive but if you buy 2 hence the name twin they do give discounts on many items. As for service, yes if you look like your under 35 expect to get carded this is a popular liquor stop for the kids at UT so it's expected they will card - TABC doesn't play!

    Random Ghostbusters with baby carriage at Dan Aykroyd vodkagraph event.
    Catherine T.

    I can only comment on today's Dan Aykroyd vodkagraph event, as today was the very first time I've ever even set foot inside a Twin Liquors. Even though there's a Twin Liquors close to my house, I automatically go to Spec's. I'm not sure why that is, but it is. And even though my experience today was less than stellar, I might go back to this Twin Liquors and actually look around at stuff next Monday. I arrived at Twin Liquors at 1:45pm with my Ghostbusters tee on. Unfortunately, I had forgotten to charge up my phone the night before, and I was hoping beyond hope that the battery would last until 4pm when Aykroyd arrived. I was third in line, and the staff and the people in line with me seemed very nice. I had enough people to chit-chat with for the next two hours to keep me busy. Around 3:30pm, the staff started handing out a cocktail sample they'd made with Aykroyd's Crystal Head vodka. That was actually my second helping, as the woman behind me went over to the tasting bar and snagged us each a sample earlier. At least twelve people dressed up in full Ghostbusters costume, and I got a couple of pictures of them. I almost wore my Elwood Blues costume, but I chose not to because I figured I would have felt silly. I later regretted that decision, and you'll hear why soon. Four o'clock arrived, and here came Dan. He seemed in very good spirits, and wife Donna Dixon was with him, which I wasn't expecting. For some reason, all the Ghostbusters got to cut to the front of the line. Um, okay, I understand they did something extra special by dressing up, but I did something extra special by *showing* up early. I would not have minded that they got to cut in line if they hadn't all stood right in front of me as I was trying to take pictures of Aykroyd. I got a few, but I wasn't able to get as close as I wanted to because of the costumed royalty. And each Ghostbuster had about 15 things they wanted Aykroyd to sign, whereas the rest of us only had up to one besides the bottle, and the one thing I had was a picture a lady in line with me gave to me to keep. Once the Ghostbusters finally got out of the way and I had a clear shot of Aykroyd, my phone died, of course. So, THANKS! I was finally about to step in front of Aykroyd, when some bitch and her tot cut in front of me. I tapped the woman on the shoulder and told her the line starts "way back there." Her response? "Fuck you!" Ex-fucking-scuse me?? I only got here two-and-a-half hours early so I could get a decent place in line. You can't just walk in and play the elitist card. I mean, who the fuck do you think you are, anyway? I didn't say any of this to her, but I sure wanted to. And pay attention to that last sentence because I'm going to write it again very soon about a different woman. Bitch and spawn got their vodkagraphs and got the fuck outta the way, so I walked up and placed my picture in front of Dan. We shared a few friendly words, and after he signed my stuff he reached out his hand to shake mine. As I was reaching my hand out, I randomly got knocked out of the way by a younger bitch who blathered, "Oh Dan, it's Astragenica! I just moved here, and I HAD to come say hiii-eeee!!!!!" Ex-fucking-scuse me?? I only got here two-and-a-half hours early so I could get a decent place in line. You can't just walk in and play the elitist card. I mean, who the fuck do you think you are, anyway, Astragenital?!? I didn't say any of this to her, but I sure wanted to. (See, I told you I'd go there again. But can you blame me??) I was determined to get a handshake, so I waited until Astragenital was done fawning all over Aykroyd, despite the Twin Liquor employees telling me to move along. No, I'm not going anywhere until I get a fucking handshake from one of my favorite fucking actors. I have behaved myself and not kicked asses when asses deserved to be kicked, and none of you Twin Liquor fucks kicked asses to the back of the line when you should have, so get off my case. I finally got my handshake, and I high-tailed it to the register so I could pay and get the fuck out of dodge before someone ELSE treated me like shit. So my big problem with Twin Liquors is that they didn't have ANY security, and they certainly should have. While I was waiting to pay at the register, I watched several people jump line in front of the people who were originally behind me. These line-jumpers came to the front area to "get pictures", and they then tried to *sneak* in line without anybody noticing. So, Twin Liquors? Next time you have a celebrity bottle-signing event, you NEED TO HIRE SECURITY. It's not fair that some of us stood in line patiently for more than two hours, yet people who got there late decided they had the right to be in line ahead of us. NOT COOL. Sorry for all the cursing, folks.

You walk in and immediately know you are not in some polished Instagram cocktail lounge. It is loud, a little gritty, and full of people who are clearly there to have a good time and not pretend otherwise. The beer is cold, the Lone Star flows like Texas water, and the vibe is pure old school Austin. And yes, the legendary bathroom situation deserves its own paragraph. The men's room features a giant ice filled trough for a urinal, which feels like something out of a 1970s roadside saloon documentary. Somehow it is both ridiculous and perfectly on brand. It actually becomes a conversation starter because you walk out laughing and immediately tell your friends they have to see it and go pee. The crowd was friendly, the bartenders were quick with the beers, and nobody was taking themselves too seriously. I ended up staying longer than planned, drinking Lone Stars and talking to random people like we had known each other for years. If you want craft cocktails served with a rosemary sprig this is not your place. If you want a hilarious, slightly chaotic, authentically divey night in Austin with cheap beer and great stories, Dirty Bill's absolutely delivers. Five stars and I would go back in a heartbeat.

There was a small area where dancing could take place, but no one was dancing at the time. The staff including the general manager was super friendly. It felt like a wedding reception as you came into the club where you were greeted...very warm and welcoming. We had a drink and stayed a short while. It looked like a place you could come for a girls or guys night out or celebrating a fun occasion. Will definitely consider Dirty Bill's for a future fun evening...

When we learned that the same restaurant was in Austin, TX, we decided to try it. Based on Yelp advice, Happy Hour was the way to go. The menu items were generously sized. We arrived at this dimly lit, sultry restaurant that had speak easy vibes. The stylish chandeliers and soothing colors adds to the ambience. The restaurant is quiet spacious with private dining areas. In addition, the DJ spins tunes from 7 PM during the week and 6 PM during the weekends.

Now for the food and drinks...we ordered an assortment of food items...Cesar salad, hamburger, truffle fries, Thai fries, Brussel sprouts salad, salmon and tuna cones, street corn and chicken wings. The standouts included the Cesar Salad (with soft flavorful crouton pieces), hamburger (Juicy and thick), truffle fries and Brussel Sprout salad (very large size).

The aromatic fog smelled incredible, and the drink itself tasted like a refreshing cucumber-jalapeño cocktail. My only downside was how close the tables are together. It can feel like you're part of the conversation at the next table, and I'm sure they can hear yours too. Aside from that, the food, drinks, and service made for an amazing dining experience. I'd definitely come back!

Surprisingly, the restaurant wasn't very busy, so we were expecting a smooth experience. We ordered the bottomless mimosas, the chili crispy chicken eggs Benedict, and the chicken and waffles. The standout dish was definitely the chili crispy chicken eggs Benedict. It was flavorful, very filling, and easily my favorite thing I ordered. I would order it again if ever come back. The bottomless mimosas came pre-made in a pitcher, which was convenient, but they tasted more like juice than champagne. If you're expecting a traditional mimosa, you may be disappointed. Unfortunately, the chicken and waffles were our least favorite dish. The chicken batter was very thick, little to no seasonings and had a yeasty flavor, and the waffles were much sweeter and cakey than expected. The flavors didn't balance well, and my boyfriend wasn't able to finish even a third of his meal. Service started off well and our waitress was friendly, but as brunch went on we found ourselves having to flag her down multiple times for refills and assistance. Since the restaurant wasn't particularly busy, this was surprising. The biggest downside was the value. For the prices being charged, we expected a higher quality dining experience. While the eggs Benedict were decent, the rest of the food and service didn't quite justify the cost. The ambiance was also lacking. For a brunch spot, especially one we chose for a birthday celebration, the atmosphere felt pretty flat and didn't add much to the overall experience. Overall, there were some highlights, especially the eggs Benedict, but there were enough misses that we left feeling the experience was average rather than memorable for a birthday celebration.
