Prashant Verma: Excellent mint tea & a really clean & neat place. It's not really crowded, there's a big projector & nice music playing in the background (it's not too loud too). Perfect for hanging out with friends.
Andrea Trevino: Patio and inside are equally quaint. You can't go wrong with the Jasmine mint tea and honey vanilla smoke in your hookah, they pair lovely. There is nothing fast paced here, including the service.
Aziz: Best tea ever

exfm: Hands down coolest music venue in Austin. Head outside to the main stage or up the stairs to the rooftop deck that looks over the stage. If you want a more intimate experience head to the back stage.
The Most Interesting Man in the World: To access the secret VIP lounge, knock 12 times on the wall by the restroom. If no one answers that means it’s full.
