Very fun atmosphere and great happy hour M-F til 7. And $5 wells all day! They have pool tables, darts, etc. with a variety of seating options. Plenty of nearby parking, too. Golden Horn also has Yellow Ranger onsite for food, which has vegan options!

The Golden Horn is such a swell spot. It's got a spacious layout with pool tables, decent size bar and seating. I like that they have traditional seating along with 70s-style upholstered booths, sofas, etc. Depending on the amount of people in your party, there is seating to accommodate. I'm a big fan of frozen drinks and they make some really good ones. Like knock your socks off good and be careful not to drink too many good. So it gets pretty busy at certain times but I like that whether it's super busy or not you're still able to grab a seat with friends and be able to hear each other talking. It's such a friendly place to spend time and we've actually met a lot of new friends there. Food is yum, from Yellow Ranger and that will be a separate review. It's also cool that our dog is treated like a king when he's there. Because, well, he is.

Very cool bar that's good a lot more atmosphere on the inside versus what you see on the outside. Good prices also.

Finally came one Saturday because heard great things about the bar and yellow ranger. Dark and moody, it's a good place to grab a drink or hang with friends. Not sure if it was that day, but there was no AC and it was extremely warm inside (even warmer with all the people). Bar seating is limited, but there are tables and chairs in the back near the bathroom. If you come to watch a game, recommend sitting at the bar only as this is the only place with a tv. The seating in the bar has no tv. For bar service, it's okay. The initial person at the bar seemed in a bad mood and avoided all customers, but she could have been having a bad day. Another bartender came over and took our drink orders, he was super friendly and helpful with navigating the beer and cocktail menu. DRINKS Espresso martini- 5/5 Not sickly sweet, strong coffee flavor. Rim is chocolate Old Fashioned-5/5 This one is on draft, but great balance and recommend if you're looking for something to sip on Jellyfish IPA-5/5 You can never go wrong with a jellyfish lol FOOD So food is not actually by The Golden Horn, but another business called The Yellow Ranger which is right by the bar area. To order food, you can the QR code (you will find a bunch around) and order your food. The staff will then bring it over. Egg rolls-4/5 Deliciously crispy, not cheap on the filling, great with the chili dipping sauce. And not overly greasy and salty. Good for a quick bite at the bar Queso dip-2/5 Loved the combo of ingredients (especially the black garlic) but WAYY too salty--so much that it was hard to get the actual taste of the garlic and chili. Served with chips and a side of steamed broccoli. The broccoli really helped cut all the salt and fat. But because the chips were already salted and the queso was salty, it was salt on salt Loaded Fries-3/5 Nice thick slices of fried potatoes topped with green onions, lime aioli, chili crisp, cilantro. The top pieces were good, but by the middle and bottom they were extremely salty (same issue like the queso dip), greasy (soggy with oil). Recommend coming here for a drink, but unfortunately wouldn't come back for the food.

Cool bar with dart boards. The problem? They only have two boards. Beyond that, the food is pretty good and the drinks are as well.

The Flor De Fuego was smokeyy and spicy with a kick, while the El Mercado was perfect for my sweet-drink-loving heart. The space is small with limited seating, but a nice date night spot. Since they just opened, service was a bit slow and crowd management could use some polishing. Definitely recommend making a reservation so you don't have to wait for tables to free up. Excited to revisit and try their food menu!

The…read moreVázquez sisters (of Veracruz All Natural fame) have created a warm, intimate bar that feels more like a cultural experience than just a night out. The mezcal selection is amazing, which is really the whole point. It's the best way to try something new, with over 20 different agave spirits from all over Mexico. The staff is super knowledgeable and passionate, and they take the time to walk you through the differences in flavor, region, and even who made it. You can tell they really care about honoring the traditions and the people behind the spirits. Cocktails are thoughtful and seasonal, but I'd recommend trying at least one pour neat. The food is just as good, as you might have guessed by the menu next door. The thick cut tortilla chips are unbeatable, especially when paired with fresh guacamole and homemade salsa. Whether you're a mezcal nerd or just curious, La Mezca is one of the most unique and thoughtful drinking experiences in Austin. I'll definitely be back.

I got…read morethe pop quiz which is their take on the old fashioned which I highly recommend and the dirty chai frozen which is also delicious. I don't believe there are servers as you order at bar. It seemed quite busy but I was still able to get the bartenders attention amid a large group in front of the bar. I would say it's very similar to kitty cohens in terms of cocktail quality and over all atmosphere. It's also dog friendly which is a plus since I love bringing my dog wherever I can.

The drinks were pretty good, I had the moon tower cocktail which was a little sweet but still pretty strong and my date had a frozen cocktail which he also liked a lot. There is parking in the area (streets) that I do believe is mostly free; I ended up parking across the street at Este because I ate there first but there were lots of other cars parked around the place. You order at the bar; menus are on the table but you have to walk up/nobody serves you at the table. You also seat yourself. Bathrooms were quite clean too! Overall this place has a pretty good vibe; I have other go to spots around town I would choose first, but I liked Teddy's and if you live nearby/in east Austin it's a great option for a drink and chill :)

Apparently a big online order had come in, which they were prioritizing over customers there in person. So that wasn't great. However, once I got my tacos ALL was forgiven. These are by far the best vegan breakfast tacos I've ever had! The vegan chorizo, potato, and cheese was so insanely good. I am going to be coming back here just for that! I also got the smoked tempeh and migas tacos, which were pretty good.

The drinks are good, the food is good, the vibes are great, and every cashier/bartender/barista I've had has been fast and kind. They have indoor and outdoor seating and it's all well kept. There is sometimes trivia or drag queen night going on outside, something to keep in mind. There are also a few spots in the front of the building you can sit at, but that area tends to fill up with smokers so be aware. There are vegan options which are great. The margaritas are good and the last time I got a Michelada I was given four olives and that made it extra delicious for me. The coffee drinks are solid too. I have yet to have a bad time here. A great spot for last minute meet ups or other casual get togethers. I have a few friends that love this place so I'll be sure to come back.

Tucked inside the Golden Hour bar, this restaurant is a total hidden gem. As a fellow Asian, I was…read moresurprised at the quality of Asian food the restaurant is churning out and must say very impressed. Also as a vegetarian, I absolutely loved the plethora of vegetarian options available to me. First off the atmosphere is so great. I love the bar vibes and interior - it is cozy and slightly more upscale than a dive bar with comfy chairs. They have a pool table and dim lighting but not too dark where I need a flashlight to see what I am eating. We came on a Wednesday night and it wasn't too crowded and we were able to find a table for 6. You just find a table, sit down and order via QR code and someone brings you the food. The dishes I got included yellow Ranger fries which were really sliced potatoes that were perfectly crispy served with aioli and chili crisp and was absolutely delicious. I also got the Dan Dan noodles with tofu which was a good size portion - the tofu was perfectly crisp and the noodles were Al dente and the sauce was pretty good though I wish it had just a little more sesame paste. As a table we shared the black garlic queso and oh my gosh was that delicious I was worried the black garlic may overpower the queso, but it didn't and added a nice umami punch without making it overly salty. Drinks wise that's where the bar comes in and they do have a water station. Parking is free with lot attached and it is small so there was plenty of street parking as well. Also the reviewers rating the place lower because of QR code menu is very strange to me as since COVID I feel most restaurants have shifted to using QR codes to browse menus and order. We came in as a group of 6 and we all found it much easier to order via QR code and individually pay for our own food. Not sure why others had issues with it. We all have our phones and printed menus often come stained/items out of orders/prices aren't accurate.

Yellow Ranger is located inside of a bar, but the bar has a different name. On the surface, it may…read morelook like you're pulling up to the wrong place because the name outside is something other than Yellow Ranger. I feel like the food is overpriced!! The burger was good and I ordered a side of rice with it, but I didn't receive much rice. The staff members were friendly and extremely helpful. If the food wasn't so expensive, I'd probably come back, but I paid a little over $20 for lunch and I wasn't a happy camper.
