by Dennise S. on I went again on saturday night and let me tell you that this place is BOMB! Best nights it cracks! Thurs, Fri, and Sat. The music was wonderful, the DJ played your top 40's and beyond VERY TASTEFUL. Crowd was nothing but classy! Ladies if you like UFC fighters you will find them there! Damnn! outside patio was big and great. (Couches!). I dont know how long the line was to get in, but try to get on someones guest list cuz it looked very very long! But perfect for the people inside cuz it was'nt to over crowded. You have to check it out! just look outside the box because you will be taken by the layout and design!
by Maude Morman on What this place lacked in flavor, it made up for in great environment and chill feeling. The last time I was in New York, I went to Bon Chon and while I loved the tasty fried chicken and hot waitresses (including the one who made a point of shaking her attractive derriere in my face), it was too crowded and dark. Those are things where Third Floor Cafe has a distinct advantage. First, let me say riding up in an elevator the size of an airplane bathroom is an entertaining experience. Then to find two burly bouncers is an even more amusing surprise. But once we were seated, service was attentive and quick. We had a 2500 cc beer fountain with fried chicken and the bulgogi. Like I said, the food wasn't so hot. What was amusing were the three girls at the bar waiting to pick up on unsuspecting males like myself. As my friend and I sat at a table nearby, he pointed out the girls and how they seemed really bored. There's a reason, I explained. They're just waiting for a guy to come along, then they'll get all animated. They probably know the staff here. A guy sits down next to them and all of a sudden like fembots near Austin Powers, they spring into action and start pouring shot after shot. Sadly for them, the guy's friends (boys and girls) come over and eventually the girls figure out they're going nowhere. After the patrons move away, the three girls disband and one of them goes behind the bar to pour herself a drink and hug the bartended. Shady Koreans... :-P I liked Third Floor. Not too pricey but a bit more than I would like to have spent.
by Kanisha Later on Free oysters (I didn't make it in for that) and free BBQ (beef ribs and chicken - i only tried a bite of the ribs) on a Friday night in a venue with pool tables, live music and an outdoor patio where the bbq was grilled before your eyes makes for a great spot to hang. The house margaritas, though only $3.50 were a little on the harsh side. Top shelf was pricier, but offered less hangover potential. I met some very interesting people in a very diverse crowd. It has a punk rock charm that made this Austinite feel right at home. Ahhh, I love a back patio at a bar. Standing under the heater made me glad I don't use flammable product in my hair. And it is right next door to a shotgun bar that has karaoke. But I hear singing along to Fernando at El Rio beats any singalong in town. With free shots for the singers, how could it be better?!
