Music is too loud, cant hear anyone from your table. Wait time for the servers to attend to you could take a while as well, also it's a hit or miss on how often those servers will check up on you or if you need refills, most of the time you would have to look for one just to ask for a refill. Finally they need to do a better job of hecklers. There was a drunk girl that was being loud and obnoxious. She was invading the personal space of others by going to random tables. It looks like she was served a good amount of drinks from the bar, that attendant needs to do a better job of not giving too many drinks to a customer. Also having a party of 5 or More and not being able to split the bill more evenly is dumb. If one person gets 1 appetizer but another gets 2 appetizers and multiple drinks and they can't split it based on what they personally ordered, how is this fair? From a business standpoint that's inconvenient and a major customer dissatisfier in my opinion. This place needs to change a lot of things as well as re-train staff on customer service.

I recently visited this place with a friend. The food js great don't get me wrong. However that is the only good thing about this place. You cannot have a conversation with the person sitting right next to you because the music is so loud. When you place your order you practically have to shout at your waitress. I spent half of the time trying to figure out what the people across from me were saying. I had to pull the old smile and nod. If you're looking for a place to go eat and have a conversation with your friends this is not the place for that. It's like being at a club but with food.

Came in a Sunday & while it’s cool to have a live music, which in this case a Dj, I just don’t think it should be loud to the point where you can’t hear the person across from you. Beef fajitas tacos were so tough to eat it basically felt like I was chewing rubber & didn’t taste right. Just comes off like a restaurant aiming to be more of an aesthetic than being known for its food. Our server was cool though!

Came in today for Sunday brunch. Cool atmosphere, the dj played all types of music and the birria was good. Coming back for sure

THIS PLACE IS HORRIBLE. We waited an hour to get service from a waiter, only to have one with an attitude. Then, when we paid our bill THEY GAVE THEMSELVES AN EXTRA TIP. Do not come here under any circumstances. The food was decent, but it's not worth the bad service.

The atmosphere was really neat! They had a lot of bright colors and fun decor throughout the place. You also get beautiful views of downtown Austin. Our server was super sweet and helpful. The music was a little loud to even hear friends at our same table. Bathroom setup could also be better.

Very good food and drinks, however the service is pretty mediocre. Tables are dirty all the time and servers are poorly trained.
