Editorial Review for QUA Bottle Lounge – by Joshua Hinsdale

In Short
Despite its Warehouse District location, QUA could set a new global standard in hip volcanic island lairs. The enclosed front patio, featuring a babbling brook amidst subdued natural hues, conceals the sunken bar's true colors. Inside, vivid red, burnished gold and pitch-black tones mingle with lush textures and designs. A DJ booth is perched above the transparent dance floor, which reveals frenetic reef sharks and stingrays swimming in the 19,000-gallon pool below the dancing divas.

Insider Tips

Where to Sit

Call or email in advance to reserve plush, padded, semi-private booths, complete with champagne bottles and ice-filled chilling tables.

Look Good

Stylish bartenders and staffers look as good as the patrons. Wear crisp, swanky or trendy attire and fit right in.

Know Before You Go

No 21st birthdays here. The bar's policy states that it will only admit clubgoers who are at least 25 years old.

Fun Fact

Covered by a three-inch soundproof acrylic dance floor, the underground aquarium is maintained by a room-sized, automated system that recycles the water every 20 minutes.

Save Time

Not only are you not legally obligated to provide your driver's license number on your credit card bar receipt, you really should decline the request.

User Reviews for QUA Bottle Lounge

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

06/11/2008 Posted by Krissime

I went to Qua several months ago on a Thursday night. I had a blast! We left the club to go find something else to do. We meandered around downtown checking out other clubs and finally decided that we were having such a blast at Qua we shouldn’t have ever left, so we went back and closed ‘er down. I loved the ambiance and the DJ played every song I requested! The bartender was making the best Mojitos I’d ever had and we danced our booties off all night long. I’m defiantly going back!

Pros: Everything was great!

Cons: Drinks were pricey

4 Star Rating: Recommended

ha ha its kind of funny seeing the bad reviews on such a beautiful night club. The only thing that I don't like is the loud music. It would be nice to be able to listen to nice lounge music and, carry on a conversation without yelling . Over all I do like the set up we need more nice upscale spots in austin. I give qua a thumbs up

Pros: the salt water aquarium is nice

Cons: lower the music its way too loud.
