Beauty Bar is a FRANCHISE bar. It's evident: the attitudes, outfits, and drama here are completely transposable with the other locations around the country. I understand Austin is up to its proverbial eyeballs in hipsters and I have no problem with that, it's just clothing to me. However, Beauty Bar is like hipster middle school prom every night. If there's not a drunk guy sloppily trying to kiss every girl he sees sitting at one of the perm chairs, then there's some girl crying in the corner about how (insert Hipster Dude Crush of the Week here) "totally made out with some girl who wore the same shoes as me." I'm not kidding, it's like this every time I've been there. I don't know if Beauty Bar is the Rite of Passage for every hipster who newly turned 21, but it sure seems like it. The only time I started to remotely enjoy myself was when some DJ was playing outside and I got my groove on. Unfortunately, a drunk girl crying about her failed relationship/broken heart decided I would be her rebound attempt for the evening and somehow found some invisible adhesive which kept her stuck to me. I bolted for the exit and told my friends to let me know when they bounced. I also feel badly for the bands that play here. You get stuffed in the corner with little space to play if there are more than 3 of you and you have more than a decent sized amount of gear. People can barely see you if they aren't directly in front of you, and the geniuses put the stage/band area right at the entrance making it incredibly hard to maneuver in or out. Anytime I am at a show and a band announces their after-party will be at Beauty Bar I rejoice: the rest of Red River will be free from the riff-raff plague and I can enjoy Mohawk's or De Ville in peace.

2.5 stars is more like it, but I was not impressed. GRANTED, we were a 10+ party waiting for a table, which is not a great fit for this place, but I expected a little more. First, we waited for over an hour, while a 4-top sat and didn't do anything. I'm pretty sure another large party got seated even thought they showed up after us. When we came to order, we were told there was a bare minimum order for our group, which I thought was lame. I'll admit their estimate was closer to our needs. I did feel that the woman managing the tables/serving us couldn't give a ahit however. The food was okay. I can't even really remember - I was so, SO starving by the time I ate that my standards were low. At least it's cheap and I liked the Ethio Harar beer. What it comes down to though is I'm no expert, but I know there's better Ethiopian food out there.
