What People Are Saying About Ego's

In Short – Behind the gas station, enter a dark, smoke-filled atmosphere that's the perfect place to chill and have a few drinks with friends. The bartender can whip up a dirty martini as quick as he can crack open a Lone Star. Two pool tables in the back room are popular, so be prepared to pass the time with a game of foosball.

Gone straight to hell
by Grub Dog
This used to be one of the best places to play music, hear music and have drinks in Austin. Since it's move to Karaoke, it is just sad and lonely. Made the mistake of going in their a few months ago and I felt I lost a part of my soul... and not in the good way I used to lose my soul there.
Stay away. Don't support this place and hopefully it will either close or the owner will learn his lesson and realize that South Austin doesn't give a damn about Karaoke.
Bring back live music at Egos!
- Pros: None

Another one bites the dust
by BrandyeP
I didn't believe it until I saw it for myself.
I had heard this Austin institution had went soft so I went there
last night to see for myself. It was a sad, sad, site. I will never go
back Ego's. I loved this place, spent much money here on Lone Stars, saw
many great shows, famous folks, & danced my self silly. It is no more. Just
a cheezy sad place for cheezy sad people to go. It's now a total joke.
- Pros: None anymore
- Cons: VERY annoying Karaoke
