Very cool rooftop bar with a super friendly bouncer. However, what ruined the experience was the drunk redhead rooftop bartender. We werent able to catch his name but our group was completely turned off by the place with his belligerent drunkenness. Would not recommend this place unless someone else is working up top.

Good hors doeuvres, great location on 6th, and spacious deck upstairs with great views. Mens room could have been cleaner.

Austin is like no other city. I have been to 12 different countries, countless cities, and there is no place like Austin, Texas. The woman here are stunning, cant describe or better yet articulate the beauty of Austin women. ratio is in favor of the males. Always more women than males. Not 5 star due to over price of drinks. Well vodka tonic should never be even close to $10. Thats not even high but reasonable, thats just flat out ridiculous. Bottle service is very reasonable.. Go that route.. I will be back for sure.. Reconsider the drink prices..

The place is super nice, especially the rooftop. Big downside right now is that their really strict on covid guidelines.

Came here on a Friday night bc it was a hookah, alcohol and, rooftop spot. Around 12 the rooftop was pretty empty...very surprising. Music was awesome! The bartenders were very friendly, attentive, and courteous. Hookah seems to be by a third party company but still ok. They didnt come to turn the coals or give you the tongs but did come to ask if you wanted to buy more. Super gross- a huge roach was making its way around the perimeter and around the couches...not a fan. Everyone would scream every time it came around. The second floor seemed to be more happening and much more packed.

As of today, January 12, 2020, your front door man committed assault and battery towards me when all I did was asked if I could use the restroom at 2 am. I understand that your business closes at 2, but given I was sober for the situation, I was physically hit by your front door man with a object after I tell him to stop repeatedly. This is unacceptable behavior, and next time this happens i will involve the cops.Edit: I was a customer there as well... probably dont want to treat them that way...

Made workers come back during covid or risk getting fired well I went there on a saturday night luckily being self cautious but no one else was wearing masks or using sanitizer everyone was super close together and I come to find after two of the workers there has covid and one of them was there working that night. absolutely terrible.

Best Pool Parties During Summer And Nightclub At Night!

Nothing special but they serve alcohol

Great hookah spot. Loved the gorgeous rooftop area and staff was very friendly.

Fun place!

Had the place to myself. The bartender was gorgeous and let me play my own music. So much fun!

We went to swim on one of the last warm days of the year apparently they dont care what time they say they open nobody was there we had the whole place to our selves.

The music was not as I expected since the reviews showed a more vibrant environment. I would give it a second chance for next time...

Young professionals take note...this is a happening summer swim/party club...looking for your dream girl? There were dozens here...guys too...excellent bar, tropical setting, electronic dance dj...great party atmosphere...we were here for a special event...on this hot day, not too many middle aged or younger than college grad. They have a great crowd with awesome DJs that always have people dancing. Bottle service is the way to go. The rooftop pool and views of the downtown skyline are awesome.

Awesome Ambience!! Had a great time. I would love to host a party there!

Great Location, Music was nice, but can be a little tight

Had a great time as part of sxsw

Nice ambience.. went there for a Bollywood nightIt was amazing

Rio was 50 was much more handsome in person #CreolePatrah

Had a great time here on Sun. DJ played a decent variety of music but it was mostly Latin music at first.

Vibe and people working the place were amazing. Only issue was no tissue in the bathrooms that day

Nice laid back club also has three levels of fun...a different dj on each floor...cant beat that with a bat with a no cover charge...

This place is great! The music is catchy and the bartenders are nice and approachable. I guess the only thing is that drinks are very expensive, but note that they do not charge cover at times. Also, I thought I lost my ID there and called them, but I never received a reply which kind of sucked. But overall, I definitely recommend it!

Okay, this bar/club stood out due to the manager the night that myself, my wife, and guests visited. He made sure that we received complimentary bottle service. His attention to detail along with the cocktail girls made that night worth being cold on the rooftop. I would, I will be visiting and entertain my guests there again.

Amazing pool party

Roof top is the best if the weather is good. DJ vary each night so you can expect a little variation. You can see more college crowd in here. Drinks are bit overpriced but its downtown so cant really complain.Overall a good place to hangout with friends

Good crowd. Drinks were better than decent. Had a great time and DJ was cool. Multiple levels.

This place is amazing. Havent seen a bar this nice in a very long time however one of the staff members what kind of rude so I have to leave them for stars instead of 5. Overall though great experience, great Club.

Great service, great music, and great drinks.

Great spot if DJ HELLA YELLA IS WORKING

This place has a great dance floor, the music is good and the bartenders are really nice people. Drinks are on a little expensive side but once in a while is ok.

Amazing staff and amazing environment, and so many connections to be made

Fun, was at a private after party and it was roomy with ample seating to sit down for a bit and have a drink or even smoke.

Not as exciting as I would have liked. Too young for my taste. Music was o.k., but I never heard an entire song playing. Two thumbs down.

The staff (including the bouncer!) were super friendly, but the drinks were over priced. The pool was an interesting twist to be honest.

The place looks dated and dirty, furniture is trashed, the service was nice and the music was ok.

Very cool place to go. Nice relaxing atmosphere.

With a rooftop pool and a spacious third floor, Rio excels at Sunday funday parties.At night, the pool looses al functionality and takes up space. Last Saturday night, Rio played up-beat, popular music and did not get over crowded. Its also nice to people-watch down on to sixth street.The restrooms were well maintained.

Dance floor is big enough but the bass in music was too low.

Nice club. Has separated stories and a rooftop. A mixed race club, drink is kinda pricey.

I live in Houston and visited Austin for the 1St time my birthday weeked and we went to Rio Saturday night. I had a blast. The whole environment was my scene, music, pool, rooftop, hookah, great people and vibe. The bouncer with the locks and white streaks in it was so awesome and Jason our hookah server was the best and on point. When I come back I will be back at the Rio maybe during the day next time. Even the Manager was great. I had a drink issue and he fixed immediately. You guys rock! Thank you for making my night amazing.

Fun place to soak in the sun!

This place is chill but cool. Im 31 and clubs i have kinda outgrown but this one i can still enjoy

Loved it.

Club cool AF but the hookah is weak AF and over price.....

Drinks are hella expensive

Pleasantly swanky. The main floor is a great space, nice and cool with leather couches....but its the pool that really makes it. Rooftop pool, private cabanas--makes for a great view of the city while day drinking and beautiful people-watching. Not a bad way to cool off in our toasty city.

I love this club

Rick and Morty viewing party was off the charts! Love the environment, atmosphere, workers, and the people!

I was the DJ there. And the experience was welcoming and very vibrant. Kind of stuffy in there but thats just because it was standing room only haha

Takes 30 minutes to get a drink with 3 bartenders working and 4 people waiting. Good music, but this is the worst spot on W. 6th.

Very popular spot. Drinks are expensive; went here this last weekend on Saturday night and a vodka sprite was $8. Musics really loud, so it can be difficult to carry on a conversation, especially with multiple people, but by the same token, its a great place for club dancing. Decent amount of room, bathrooms are (relatively) clean. All in all, good place if youre more interested in dancing than conversing.

If you want to be robbed by a bar, go here. If you don’t, I’d stay away. Was told something would be $40 and then when my friend received her bill it was $340! She was accused of being drunk and not hearing the initial price (she was sober by the way). She had to NEGOTIATE the price down to $140 but it’s still completely ridiculous to have your employees lie about the price of something then talk to you like an idiot when you confront them about it. Oh and regardless of that, the bar is a cheesy wanna be Vegas Pool Club. Keep trying.

Good environment but the management is a little to picky with dress code and why do I have to have a section to get a bottle of champagne

Its a cool place with nice bar but nobody was dancing

Nice place but the blonde bartender last Sunday forgot to take her bi-polar pills(it was amusing). She made the wrong drink and we told her nicely that it wasnt what we ordered. She got attitude and out of nowhere shook my hand for the camera. Then made a new one, took the money and kicked us out.

Great hip hop and service

Interesting bar. Foam in the outside pool, outdoor bar. Typically have a DJ. Not my favorite spot in Austin, but worth a stop for a drink!

Worst service and not good flavors on raining strrst

Nice 3rd floor over looking 6th but inside on the 2nd floor is usually hot.

First time going and it was good. Our hookah server was very good, making sure we had enough coals for our hookah.

A great venue but it felt a little more catered to the older crowd (35+). That being said I still had a good time. The drinks and DJ were good.

Not enough staff, restrooms are disgusting.

It was good had a good time.

Great place to go and have fun!

Good Music but the drinks are TERRIBLE!!!! I didnt think it was possible to mess up a gin and tonic but they some how managed to do it. The bartenders then ignored my friend and I when we tried to get their attention and I am pretty sure the bar back told them not to serve us after we told him we had been waiting and skipped over for 30 minutes and asked him to politely catch the bartenders attention.

The third floor has a pool. Perfect for Sunday Fundaaaayyy

Hookah on the weekends, nice atmosphere with a nice vibe. Definitely recommend if you arent worried about prices

If I could give 0 stars I would. Not a great atmosphere and they tried to rip us off told us wewere just drunk.

This place is amazing for events. The top floor with the pool area is nice, plus the indoor space on the second floor. Bartenders gave great service.

They have a cover for men, so I didnt have time to go in.

They lost my card and charged my friend $150. If you go here, do not open a tab! And when you ask about the over charges, they have a huge attitude.

Kind of lame. Not Austin style.

I can understand if this place is to others liking but not mine. Super expensive drinks, snooty crowd, no place to sit and their waitresses are not the brightest. Passing on this bar.

Over all atmosphere is fantastic. Makes you feel like you are in Vegas but with the feel of being classy. 3rd floor has a swimming pool so bring your floaties and keep the champagne flowing!! :)

Great atmosphere and music.

Great place drinks could be better though.

Good environment but the management is a little to picky with dress code and why do I have to have a section to get a bottle of champagne

The DJ is one of the worst Ive ever seen. Anyone could do better than the spastic cuts between songs.They want to be a 1Oak or Hakkasan type Vegas/Miami club and they charge those prices...problem is youll be horribly disappointed.The bottle service girls are homely at best.If youre a UT frat/sorority idiot with your dads Amex...go to Concrete Cowboy instead. It way more fun

Great place, but drinks are way too over priced.

Fun, cant wait to go again.

Worst experience. My friend got her foot stuck on the floor and the floor is ridiculously uneven and so many ppl were falling because of it.

A place where dreams come true

This is one of the Cyrus place I have been to they need a new manager nothing was right the day I went not the drinks definitely not the chicken this is the first one I went to you need to smell the chicken cooking

I am always down with the OPP while Im downtown at the RIO... #BANGO #JSTDID #Fa-Nam #Trump

Safe environment bc of big chris

Come on Fridays to dance all night to DJ Hella Yella my go to spot away from dirty 6th

If you enjoy wearing a suit and tie everyday and want to be around others who do as well, youll probably be right at home here. The staff was welcoming and did a great job.

Nice bar with a cool atmosphere and the staff were very nice

Great view, great set up. Would perform there again.

Too many drunk and bothersome people. Staff is fine.

This is a beautiful club with great bartenders. Awesome service and a great view of the city.

Im currently at Rio.Im having a hreat time.The music is great.The bartenders are kind and amazing.Thank you for a great night

Friday nights this place is the shyt

It has a really cool rooftop!

Trying to be a Miami club with Miami prices in the middle of west 6th street Austin. Except they are absolutely not a Miami club. Not even close.

Had a good time

Great music, fun atmosphere, and great staff!

Great place to have fun awesome staff
