Located upstairs above Hydrate in this wanna be speakeasy, with a crusty old New Orleans overflow bar vibe. Squeaky old attic floors and plywood walls. A Rude bartender serving the town gentlemen in nice large glassware. While we sit at one of the few high tops in this tiny place and wait 15 minutes to be waited on we finally order at the bar and wait for the 2 drinks. $32 for two 8 oz plastic cups you'd find at a kids birthday party, one with margarita and the other with rum and coke. After leaving a tip, we had spent $1 more on 2 tiny drinks, in a horrible bar, than we spent on dinner.

I would have loved a little couch instead of the high top table we got. Probably would have stayed longer if we had a more comfortable spot to relax and converse. Would be a really cute spot for a date night if you get a couch. Wasn't too loud. Our waitress didn't know the menu really well, but the drinks were good. Cute presentation and unique flavor combos. I'd recommend hitting this spot for a pre-game drink before heading off for some downtown fun!

From the street level, you walk down steps to enter the club. This basement club delivers an authentic jazz experience. The dim lighting, narrow long room, and close seating create an intimate atmosphere. Live jazz musicians are hosted every night of the week, often with multiple sets, featuring a mix of local musicians, rotating house bands, and visiting musicians. Because of the tight space, you are always close to the stage. Tonight's headliner was the Concept Orchestra. Cover tonight was $7. Cocktails range $14-16. The room was pretty tightly packed creating positive vibes.

We were a little lost when we first arrived because the door is quite subtle, but fortunately someone else was also entering. Our servers were all very friendly and we were seated by the manager. I highly recommend making a reservation--the only reason we got in was because another reservation for 10:00 didn't show and it was almost 20 past! The drinks were good and they have a pretty solid list of "experimentals" as well as some themed drinks for the bar. I had the Daisy and an espresso martini and enjoyed both. All in all, I think this place is great for a 1:1 or coming with a small group of 2-4 people. And our receipt came inside of a book, which added to the quirkiness of the place. Would definitely come back!

Our server was very friendly and attentive. This is where things change. The bartender, asked me if i was born stupid because the door was held open for longer than he'd prefer. As our server was sitting us, we could overhear the bartender saying things about us to bar guests. Totally uncomfortable situation. We stayed for one round of drinks and left as we felt totally unwelcome due to this guys actions. Great place, but how do you run a business with rude staff like that. Also, two signature drinks, two glasses of wine shouldn't cost over $100.

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.
