Takoba

This place is so cute! The bartender explained they offer seven different varieties of tequilas / mezcals and other similar spirits and the drink menu looks incredible! We came for the happy hour which is EVERYDAY !!! From 4:30/5 to 6 pm!! They have $3 electric jellyfish (insane) and $5 frozen mango habanero margaritas (delicious) The patio is huge - lots of tables and so nicely set up! The succulents between the tables are such a cute touch - also dogs are allowed on the patio outside! Honestly our new spot for happy hour and a nice patio to bring our pup!

Visited Seven Spirits for the first time last week for there first anniversary event. The 77 cent Paloma's were cold, delicious, and on point. It only that, I tried their pork belly tacos, which were a little pricy (I think $14 for 2 tacos?) but worth every penny.

How have we been sleeping on the best happy hour in Austin?? $3 beers every day from 5-7?! And kind service from bartender, Chance? See you tomorrow.

An incredible new bar that opened recently on East Austin! Had the great privilege of experiencing their grand opening. The staff and owner are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The drinks are unique and delicious! I think I tried almost all the drinks and I enjoyed all of them! I really enjoyed the MEZTIK in particular, but be aware of the spice from the habanero bitters! I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious the tacos are. The fish tacos were sooooo good. I would come back for this alone! The tuna tostada was another highlight of the night too! I love the look of the bar and they had a nice outdoor patio too. Support your small businesses!!

Really enjoyed this new spot. Came and saw them the first few days they first opened up, and typically, during the soft opening, you'll see a lot of issues. However, this was the opposite with Seven Spirits. The owner, David, was there and sat with us and spoke to us about coming up with this concept, their future plans, and then told us what to order. The amount of passion and thoroughness that went into Seven Spirits is super impressive - all the way down to the acoustics & volume of the music in the spot. we tried guacamole | 10 - chips, salsa macha, chapulines (grasshoppers) roasted carrots | 8 - pepita salsa verde *these were amaaaazing* cuban torta | 11 - pork belly, honey ham, pickle, muenster, dijon, bolillo roll This is a crazy statement, but those carrots... were some of the best carrots I've ever had. Holy moly. And to think they were from a bar is hilarious.

This gem is relatively new to the East side so it is a great place to grab a cocktail on a Saturday night without waiting in a line. That said, the cocktails are worth waiting for. My favorite is the Meztik in which several flavors complement the mezcal base. Another stand out creation is the Tamarind Negroni. If you want dessert try the Marquesita which manages to taste like strawberry cheesecake due to straining through Greek yogurt. The food menu is short but includes some great items. The guacamole has added texture from roasted grasshoppers ( you wouldn't recognize them if you weren't told). The Cuban torta is delicious with pork belly instead of roast pork. The decor is very stylish and the staff are knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly. There is a small front deck facing a side street so it is a cool place to hang out. The only negative is that they use plastic cups for water. Enjoy Seven Spirits before everyone discovers it and it is overrun.

A proper idea for a bar can be ruined when the service and staff don't mean the bare level of decorum.

Wow cocktails have gotten pricey! Maybe I don't go out enough. This relatively new bar is cute and has a good vibe. There's an indoor space and outdoor patio. The bartenders unfortunately were not welcoming and not very helpful, but the drinks were good. My favorite was the frozen guava lava. I also got the Sonoran sour, which I probably wouldn't choose again but it was a unique drink to try once. $35 for two drinks is steep to me, but it must be the new going rate downtown.

Fantastic selection of Mexican spirits carefully explained with a map and tasting notes. Excellent service, delicious cocktails and great specials and happy hour deals (4-6 Tues-Fri). Highly recommended.

Intimate spot to grab a drink away from the crowd on East 6th. Chance the bartender was spectacular & recommended the empanada's...SO GOOD. This is THE place to go if you like tequila.

This was the first time coming here. As we were looking at the menu deciding what to order we were suddenly sprayed in the face with water from the bartender. The bartender's reaction was first giving us a small napkin. As he saw us leaving the bar, he came over to speak to us about the menu. After speaking with us about the menu, he said our drinks would be free due to the fact that my shirt and face were soaked from the water that was sprayed moments before. After my fiance ordered her drink free of charge he turned to me and asked, "alright cowboy what do you want?" After making the drink he looked at me and said "I'm going to have to charge you for that one." To our surprise after stating our drinks were free, we had to pay for one after being sprayed in the face with water and after we were told that both of our drinks would be free of charge due to the incident. We do not recommend coming back here.

The music, ambience and drinks. A hidden gem!! Excellent spirit selection focused on tequilas and mezcals. A bailar!!

We got here early waiting for some friends and were immediately greeted by David who was so friendly and attentive. The whole menu looked amazing and it totally was. Drinks have quality ingredients and the food leaves you wanting more. You NEED to try the Al pastor and carne asada tacos! Don't skip out on the carrots too. They are on the menu for a reason. We were always fans of Takoba and were sad when they closed but this place and the ambiance here is perfect. Plenty of space and AC. 10/10 will be making this my home base bar.

Best guac I've had in.... Possibly ever. Frozen drinks were on point, not overly sweet, just the way I like it. You can tell they use fresh ingredients in both drink and food. Not sure if they've changed out staff (Ive read a previous review) but the night I went, bartenders were attentive and welcoming. Clean, comfortable spot

Patio has some vibes. Drinks so-so. Bouncer is the friendliest person there. Both bartenders were absolutely miserable and unfriendly, couldn't answer questions about drinks, and just stared into space while you ordered. Left at the same time as 3 other parties, everyone outside said they were leaving because of bar staff.
