    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.

Imagine Lala's feels like a chill, comfy neighborhood bar where you can actually enjoy yourself, and the ambiance, and have a conversation with whoever you came with, instead of a tourist clogged beehive? Because BOOM that's Lala's South Pole. I'm not even a big Christmas person, and I am smitten. Charming, quite, festive. It feels like a hidden gem. I probably shouldn't be reviewing it so it can stay that way, but no one like a gatekeeper. Also, absolute baller pizza from Brooklyn Pie Co. I had to really talk myself down from going back the next night just for more pizza. The service is... well what you would expect from a "trendy" Austin dive bar, as in... None, but that's part of the charm kind of? I've actually tried a lot of new pizza places lately and this is what stands out in my mind. Drinks wise? It's a bar. They serve you alcohol. Nothing special, but nothing wrong with it either.

Great decor, wonderfully curated holiday cocktails and mocktails, beers, spirits, and more. Super service. This is a place where there's no way you could ever feel sad or down and out because it's just pumpkin' with happy holiday vibes.

Nothing but 49ers jerseys and flags and the game on everywhere! Lots of covered seating, great deck, love all the decor, and all of it in great condition. The outdoor area off the deck has some areas for kids to play, but it's best for older kids. Seesaws are metal and fun, but there is no fence to keep those kiddos corralled in which I know some people look for. Parking was limited, and there were kids playing games and football in the parking lot which made me a little nervous, and they were playing with footballs that I could see hitting a car. The food trucks that night were limited, but the Mediterranean food truck was good! Nice falafel, a solid chicken shawarma salad, and hand dipped onion rings and mozzarella sticks that the kiddos definitely enjoyed. It looks like they have a burger truck too, but it was not open that night. The game volume on high, nice patrons, solid layout for the space they have, nicely maintained, friendly staff that make you feel like you've come there for years, all adds up to another great experience on Manchaca Rd!
