"Housed behind a hidden door in a former brothel, this reservation-only speakeasy has been an Austin cocktail pioneer since 2012, offering a narrow, low-lit room with tufted-leather booths and exposed brick for an intimate experience. The menu continually reinvents riffs on classic cocktails—recent themed iterations produced playful drinks like a carrot-and-tamarind Crop Circle Colada and a dark, showy Espresso Martini called The Void." - Kara Newman
