“ I really enjoyed this place everyone was very friendly, the lighting is cuuuute and it has an intimate vibe. The bar is padded for all you loons and leaners. My love and I will definitely be coming back. ”
“ Was walking 6th street to find t-shirts and stickers (what I always want when I travel) and was pleasantly surprised by this bar. I liked the music and all of the tvs, and I greatly appreciated that you had more than one nonalcoholic beer option. Also, Drew needs a raise. :) ”
“ So I went to this place four, yes four, nights in a row... It was two blocks from my hotel, and honestly I just wanted to not go far and be able to get a drink and decent food (it's Austin after all). First, get the Orange Brisket taco and stop asking so many questions. Get the dang thing and be happy. Happy hour regularly had 3 frozen margaritas. What are you complaining about? They've got some chef back there making this menu with love and attention. And the chefs that carry out this menu do so with fantastic consistency. I mean, I brought my Austin friends here ("Never heard of it...") And they were really impressed by the price, the service, and the quality. Get the tostadas (obviously), and if you're looking for some low-key vibes and good music, hang out here after dark. The crowd tends not to be too young (a good thing, let the early 20-somethings have the rest of 6th Street). It wasn't too crowded (weekday crowd was always chill). And the bar tenders there took care of me. Just overall a fantastic experience, from the food to the drinks to the service to the music. This is my new go-to spot if no one has a preference for what to do in Austin. Always had a good time, always got what I expected, and rarely walked out paying more than I planned. Place is a sleeper and I hope it sticks around and stays that way. TRY THE BRISKET TACOS GOSH DARNNIT. ”

“ What a great place! If you're looking for someplace a little out-of-the-way, little out of the ordinary, this is what you want... Right here on 6th Street. For dinner, I had the avocado salad, and the chupacabra... Barbacoa taco with all the works. Absolutely outstanding! ”
