TL;DR: I did not expect the food to be SO GOOD, but WOW, I WILL BE COMING BACK! Food: + Boneless Chicken Karaage ($15) was well worth the price! The outside is so nice and crispy, while the meat inside stays tender. + Chicken Sando ($14) was interesting -- not necessarily one I would order again but not bad. The kimchi pairing with the sweeter sauce and chicken just was not my favorite. + Drunken Noodles ($15) was also delicious and probably my favorite dish of the three. The portion size is perfect for sharing, although I do wish there was a bit more meat. The noodles had a GREAT texture -- nice chewiness for sure. Seriously wonderfully done, I could've shed a tear at how much I enjoyed this meal. Service: Great for anyone with social anxiety, you can just read the physical menu or online version and then use Apple Pay on your phone. Super easy experience. Ambiance: Since White Tiger is also a bar, it is understandably loud. Just keep in mind it will be difficult to have a full-on conversation while eating though. Otherwise, it's a lovely place on SoCo. There is an outdoor patio in the back with live music. read more

I hope this place is named for the white tiger that went after Sigfried and Roy. This place has an incredible location, right on South Congress, next to all kinds of trendy and upscale places that are just fun to window shop at. You're gonna need a stiff drink or two before heading into some of these stores along SoCo. Fortunately, this place has 'em! Recently I've been being tricked by the 512 Tequila stand-up-paddleboard they've been parking out in front of the place. I always get kinda confused- is it a sports shop? Are they doing a promotion? Naw, and nah. There's a live music place in the back- of course, this is the Live Music Capitol of the World. The front area serves up some expensive cocktails and beers that ain't cheap. The vibe here is kinda dive bar. Embrace it. The service isn't kind, but it is fast. The beers are cold. The tequila is served with a lime and salt. Nom. Good enough. read more

Service could've been a little bit faster. Other than than that the bartenders were friendly. Cool chill bar to grab drinks. Didn't order any food, just ordered drinks for my friend Katrina and her boyfriend. read more

Went here on a Saturday night to see a band that I recently discovered. Two of my girlfriends joined, both had been before; I had not. Both said they love the vibe. First impression was great! The outdoor area is small but has a Total South Austin vibe. Bartenders were nice and after my 2nd Shiner, he remember me for my third and last one. We ordered the Kimichi Fries.... Delicious, the smoked Edema...tasty and Crab Rangoon... Out of this World! Had a great experience! BTW... Bathrooms are nice and clean.. Super Plus!! read more

If you want a good place to drink with friends and family this is the place the ambiance and environment around the place is amazing!

After checking out the back patio and it being a bit too warm and the music being a bit too sedate for our preference, we headed inside where there was much more upbeat music and friendly bartender Jey. I enjoyed a couple Titos with soda ($9.25 each) and Jim G. enjoyed the 512 IPA (also $9.25). We used the QR code to order from the kitchen (which is a separate business and check) and had some Chicken Kaarage. It was a pretty decent portion, We paid an extra dollar for it to be spicy and just got some spicy oil on the side. I wouldn't do that again. And, considering I place the and pick it up myself, I don't know that I would have tipped 15% if I knew that. Interesting people watching and a nice time before we headed over to the Continental Club. read more

White Tiger is a bit of a hidden gem knowing their location is literally down the road from an Hermes and Soho House, but I appreciate their still holding grip on what South Congress used to be about -- live music and grit. Situated right next to The Continental Club, you can hear live music coming out of both joints which is so nice and refreshing. The drink prices at White Tiger are super reasonable for bar drinks nowadays and felt like you weren't breaking the bank. Bar staff is super nice and they literally have a huge portfolio of drinks from college geared to a nice sip on a well aged tequila or whiskey. As a lover of Electric Jellyfish, I just had to go for a pint of my fave IPA. For my friends who ordered cocktail drinks or wine, let's just say that they have a nice pour you'll enjoy. The front is more of a dj party environment and as you walk down the hall with all of the polaroid photos, you'll step upon their back patio which has a second bar and a stage adjacent to it. There is an elevated patio with seating to enjoy the band and a few arcade games as well. It's a bonus in my book when spots advocate and support local acts so White Tiger already has a soft spot in my book. (4.5/5) read more

I came her last week with my Yelp work crew to celebrate "life, success and our blessings" - DJ Khaled -I'm The One As my it was my first time coming here, it was nice to see a bar directly upon entry staffed full of bartending staff so there wasn't much of a wait for beverages. When walking past the bar and an old school cigarette machine, guests will see a service window for those who order late night eats from this spot. Past this, a hallway plastered with polaroid photos can be seen (some of which are rather risky). Beyond the hallway is an outside bar and performance stage. During the time, the crew and I were here, there was a Rock/Indie band performing, which was okay but it was the erratic dancing of drunk patrons that was proved to be much better than that the band (LOL)! The drinks were on par and not watered down which is a nice surprise as many places such at this will often be heavy of the price point but low on the alcohol. The service provided here was also friendly and swift. In addition, White Tiger is celebrated for its live music performances, showcasing local talent that enhances the vibrant nightlife of Austin. The venue frequently hosts a variety of genres, from rock to jazz, creating an electrifying energy that makes each visit unique. Whether you're looking to enjoy a casual dinner or dance the night away to live tunes, White Tiger is the ideal destination for an unforgettable evening in Austin. #supportlocal read more

Live music in the back and great selection of music playing inside. Jay, the bartender, was really friendly and gave us a lot of tips for other placed to check out. Beer was cold and reasonably priced. You can order a variety of asian inspired dishes using the QR code on the menu. We had the chicken kaarage. Nice and crispy and a pretty large portion. You can pick it up at the window after they text it is ready. read more

It's a sports bar! On a Saturday all the college games are playing. Pretty efficient bartenders that take care of everyone. The from bar was full so we ended up in the back patio. Another small bar back there if you choose. Some skeeball and basketball games. There was a band back there. Sounded good. But as a lessons learned in most place in Austin, carry earplugs/protection with you. read more

I got pork dumplings and wings with Dr.pepper sauce and heat level of "it's not that hot". Quick service, quality food, fantastic. Was in town for a trip and just wandered in, would recommend. Also, it's actually not that hot, accurate description, good sized meaty wings (pause). Chef very nice guy. read more

Wings are perfectly crunchy and juicy. Live music was awesome in the back. Played beer pong and pop a shot. Cool place.

It's a fine bar to pop in for a quick drink but that's about it. The ladies bathroom was gross and when I sat to pee the whole toilet wobbled and it wasn't even screwed to the floor. read more

A dive bar with a cool outdoor music space? Yes please! If you wanted something a little divey, but not scary dirty or sketchy, White Tiger is the place for you. While this place is a little bit on the smaller side, they have a great outdoor area surrounding a giant tree. We caught the last part of a band playing. While it was crowded out there, there was still a little space. Afterwards, we sat in the cool May night and watched NHL and Boxing for an hour or so. The only "drawback" I would give this place is the enforcement of safe emergency areas. They let way too many people to sit on the stairs up to the deck. Was this terrible? No, but if there was an emergency, it could have gotten dicey. The drinks are also a little expensive, but that is kind of par for the course. I really liked this place and will be back the next time I am in town! read more

Had a blast on a crazy whim to enter this bar. The bar isn't anything snooty or fancy which is great. Very dive bar type. They have shot specials everyday for $4 bucks which you can't beat. They had cherry bombs on Sundays and they were very tasty. The bartenders were awesome and vibing. Tunes were great. I'm definitely stopping by next time I'm in town. read more

I fell in love with the patio in the back. Also the vending machine for vapes. And the edamame. And the Photo Booth. And the $5 margs on Monday. read more

Although I was a fan of Botticelli's, I think Congress really needed a divey type bar. I like to go here to start my evening for a cheap drink and almost always a guarantee of live music during the week. The back deck can't be beat, with the huge oak trees and the biggest fan you have ever seen. It really does wonders to have a constant airflow and make it feel cool out there. They have good musicians, usually leaning more classic rock. I've never eaten the food, and after looking at the menu, it's fried fried fried. My only real complaint is that this place is dirty. I mean D-I-r-t-y. I would give this place five stars, but I don't think it has ever seen a broom or a sponge. I'm almost throwing up just thinking about the bathrooms... Which definitely are full of throw up. read more

We came in twice while staying for a week down the street. The first time was early at the indoor bar in front of the garage door. We had a couple margaritas, which were tasty enough. If you're looking for a place to hang during the day while people watching on South Congress this is a good spot. Our second visit was in the evening before we left town for a night cap. Being as it was a Thursday night we made our way to the back patio to enjoy some live music. The prices are on par with the rest of the street's bars. The service was fine both times we visited. It's worth checking this spot out. read more

In fairness we only came by for a quick drink but the staff was so friendly and this place os a 100% legit dive bar. I would love to come back to enjoy the live music venue. Great shots, mixed drinks, and craft beers. read more

Stopped in here with a friend while on South Congress. Craft beer prices were outrageously expensive and overpriced. Bartender was nice and moved the line quickly. Good amount of seating inside and outside but it's one of those bars where you cannot hear yourself think -- blaring music on the loud speaker in the front portion of the bar and then a super loud live band on the back patio. My ears were ringing when I left. Also, the Photo Booth wasn't working. In all, it wasn't my vibe. read more

Stopped by during the day on a Saturday, and it was a great spot! Love the outdoor patio/bar in the back with live music - great vibe for getting together with friends. There's not a ton of seating so you may have to stand around a bit, but we didn't mind since it was so nice out. Would love to come back next time I'm in Austin! read more

First off, service was probably the best I've had in a while. Our bartender killed it, Eric was very personable and attentive. Matt, can't say enough good things about him and the bar. If you're in the area, this is a must try. Take a shot and have fun. You won't be disappointed!! The kitchen too, unique and different. Give it a shot!! read more

Passing by the back road of congress when we noticed a patio locally opened. My partner was invested to look further and I'm so happy he did. It was really a hidden gem in south congress since there isn't much of bars. It was cute and comfy sport bar nice open back patio just enough to hang not to party. I love a miche anywhere so I had to try one myself here and it was not a bad choice got to say top 5. A quick drink here I don't think it will ever hurt especially with cool bartenders read more

The outdoor area of this bar is so fun! There was live music when we went and only a bachelorette and a few other people outside but we still had a blast. The band played covers and original songs. Cheap drinks and a fun time! The inside is covered in photo strips so of course we had to pop into the photo booth to add to the collection! read more

This seemed like a fun bar. I am not really a big fan on the fact that they have like a whole giant list of shots and I have no idea what are in those shots. So I haven't do research or something? Or bother the bartender? Why can't they list what's in the shot? That names are really fanciful, but I would like to know what I am getting. read more

This club needs to get with the times. Not only are businesses required by Austin's URO to have recycling, but also it is stupid easy (and much better than piling boxes between the fence and the road) read more

White Tiger is a very cool rock bar on South Congress Avenue in Austin, TX. Features a full bar and specializes in speciality shots.

Great drinks and th "Tiger's Den" food is amazing. The pork belly egg rolls were out of this world good!
