Did not order any food, but the drinks were fantastic! Staff knowledgeable of drink menu and telling us what's in the drinks and how they taste.

A hidden gem with an air of quiet luxury. This sophisticated speakeasy boasts an impressive, expansive bar where creativity takes center stage. The bartenders are true artisans, effortlessly crafting imaginative cocktails and refined non-alcoholic selections with equal care and flair. The menu shines just as brightly, offering both small and larger fare that are beautifully executed, along with decadent desserts that are simply irresistible. Every detail feels intentional—an elegant escape for those who appreciate elevated ambiance and exceptional craftsmanship. 🍸✨

Great experience here at the Roosevelt room! Drinks were great and reasonably priced. Vibes were good and the ambience of the restaurant was great.

First, it's a beautiful facility and a beautiful bar. And, perhaps most importantly, the drinks and creative drink options are great. The reason for my low score is threefold, one, forcing people to use a QR code to access a menu is emblematic of a fast food, low cost establishment. It really creates a sense of faux sophistication. People in a high end bar should not be driven to fixate on their phones. Two, the service was marginal. A person literally hands us one paper menu as the waiter walks up and he proceeds to ask us what we want to order. How would we know if we just received a menu? His timing continued to be poor throughout the dining experience. My guess is their professional training is lacking. Finally, the food options are really poor. Small plate options include popcorn, mixed nuts and avocado toast. While none of these are, in and of themselves, poor options, I'd expect more. The larger options include a combo cheese board and charcuterie board for $48. It was too small to justify the price. I wish they would make a few adjustments because the place could be legendary. If you go, my recommendation is to sit directly at the bar. No menus needed and the bartenders are great.

Beautiful bar. Our bartender, Kevan, mixed our drinks due to our preferences - he offered at the beginning that he can mix us basically everything and he really did - and they were really delicious. We had a wonderful evening!

Fabulous cocktails and fantastic service! This is a can't miss cocktail bar in Austin. Their extensive cocktail menu is impressive.

The best lighting in town. Go for a date night or the fabulous happy hour. Dark, moody vibes and strong cocktails for the win.

I've been to this place twice and both times were great but this time was a bit different. The server wasn't super helpful with the menu and made us feel like we weren't experienced enough to be in a place with hand crafted cocktails.

Over priced spot for tourist with underwhelming martinis. Don't sit in the mezzanine, it's loud with a low roof.
