Ego's Lounge as you knew and loved it is no more. It has been turned into a Karaoke bar by it's owner. Seriously. A bar that used to bring you the likes of Dale Watson, Bill Kirchen, Redd Volkeart, Two Hoots and a Holler, James Hand and a million others is now a Karaoke bar. Goodbye Austin, it was good while it lasted. So if you're into $2.50 Lonestar and some dude sleazing his way through Hotel California for the third time, Ego's Lounge is for you!

I go to Ego's all the time and find it fun. Yes sometimes its loud and there is uaually a cover, But its not smokey inside anymore and the music is GREAT 5 out of 7 days. I always meet the nicest people and leave feeling like I had a great time. It's also a great day time/ happy hour hang out very mellow. The staff is helpfull and experienced. Not to mention that the Ego's girls are super cute. Oh and did you know that it is under new management. The place keeps getting better.
Pros: Fun, Good Music, Great Staff
Cons: Sometimes its loud, slightly high prices

Where do they get off on charging so much for beer? I mean, I dig the atmosphere and all, but the staff is unfriendly and not particularly helpuful. Especially when grabbing you a $2.50 can of Schiltz. Want to pay a cover at 5:30 in the afternoon. Ego's is your place! Drop this place like a hot potatoe. Way overrated...
Pros: Cool atmosphere, Live music
Cons: Too expensive, always a cover, Crappy service

I think this is my favorite bar in town. Nice and dark. Christmas lights. Friendly people. Good drinks. Too smokey, though.
