Great atmosphere and drinks and some snacks too. On Mondays they have tango playing. Quite different, quite cool.

Moonfire is gorgeous! I love the various seating areas and the lounge feel. Its upscale in design and the staff is super friendly and warm. The wine list is extensive and the cocktails are great! I love that you can get a charcuterie or other small plates while enjoying drinks. Many thumbs up!

We had a bearded tattooed guy serve us very good mixed drinks. This gentleman definitely knew how to make his drinks. Had been out to other places on this very day and his drinks where the best. Nice environment as well. Not a mingle when single crowd when I was there just a relaxing place to sit back and enjoy your drink. Can still mingle bit different type of environment than that of a club or bar. Nice place to sit back and relax have some good drinks and enjoy good companu

Nice little spot to come in for a few drinks.Quite a few different poisons to choose from. The Dark Side of the Moon specialty drink they have is amazing. Nice fruit flavor mixed with a smoothe whiskey flavor to foreplay your tastebuds immediately followed by cool breath of fresh mint.We went during a slow part of the night which was fine because the bartender was very welcoming and friendly upon arrival until the time we left an hour or more later.Bathrooms were all modern and up to date and extremely clean.Well be back next time we visit Austin!

Drinks are great. Was there for Afrobeats Caribbean night n music selection was very good for the first couple hrs n then it switched over to hiphop. I knock stars off for the sound being up super high on dance floor and seizure strobes flashing. Im more about a leveled out experience. Yea I had fun dancing but lowering the volume a tad wouldnt ruin anyones experience n would preserve their health.

Nice spot. Very cool decor. It was a little hot inside. I will say the bathrooms were confusing. No one knew how to flush them. We left and came back and they were charging a $5 cover. Who charges a $5 cover for a lounge?

This was the perfect after dinner hangout spot!!! I got the Chocolate Moontini & the Brazilian chocolate bites, because theres no such thing as too much chocolate. Great music, great staff & great ambiance!!! Will definitely be back again

There was supposed to me a ugly Christmas sweater contest going on... There was not. It was a cool place. The vibes were a bit mixed. Like the owner wanted it to be a club but also an upscale cocktail bar. This caused it to miss the mark on both. Not a bad place at all but not quite right either.

This place has the hottest Latin Thursday night in all of Austin! Great salsa and bachata music & dancing, and a fun class at 8:15pm with some of the top instructors in town! Definitely worth checking out for a fun Thursday night out in Austin!

Make sure you go when Chad or Huy are there. They are some of the greatest bartenders Ive ever had. High quality drinks and titillating conversation. Happy Hour drinks and food are great for the price.

By far the classiest and fun Lounge in downtown. In between 2nd and 3rd street, small dance floor, lots of fun decor for the best photo shots with friends. Highly recommend this place
