My 5’2 100 lb daughter was a customer at your bar last Thursday night. She and her friends were unnecessarily man handled by a very large, way over 6 ft tall, bouncer who shouted profanities and pushed them down the stairs. The crime!?!? They asked him why he was kicking out their friend and touched his arm to get his attention. This kind of aggression is not appropriate!! I understand having to maintain control and order at a drinking establishment with customers that can be unruly but this was NOTHING like that. What’s the explanation of this uncivil, aggressive, physical behavior by YOUR employee?? 10 days later....still no call back from The Summit.

Summit is always filled with beautiful people and a great dj. I love the rooftop and multiple bars, so you arent stuck waiting forever for a drink. This place is good for a night out, or table service for a special occasion or celebration.

There werent that many people tonight. - However dont let a dead dance floor stop you. If you care about music and dont want to listen to trap beats that destroy your ears - this is the place. Well thought out melodic mixes and an amazing DJ (Lamar) playing a wide range of house, pop rap, and classic electronic.

I went for NYE but it was amazing! The rooftop patio is gorgeous, the table service is awesome, and the DJ was great! Couldn’t have asked for a better night.

Great experience. Accidentally spilled one of my beers at the bar when I was handing back the check and the bartender just replaced it immediately. She didnt even see my tip yet and she was so chill about it. Im glad I gave a good tip anyways! You just have to go. Its such an amazing setting having the roof open like that. Saw ghastly perform an after party with suprise guest riot ten!

My friends and I had tickets to the Keys N Krates show on 8/23. We arrive and the bouncer refuses to let us in because some of us aren’t 21+. NOWHERE ON THE SUMMIT WEBSITE NOR ON THE TICKETS DOES IT SAY THAT SUMMIT IS A 21+ VENUE. We showed them this and they refunded us after much arguing and waiting. About 50 people after us also received refunds because they too bought their tickets and were not aware of the 21+ rule (because it was not stated anywhere when buying the tickets, on the tickets themselves, or on the website). The manager/owner of the club was very patronizing to us but we stuck around and demanded our refunds. My friends and I won’t be going back to this place ever again.

Went here tonight. This place is amazing!! We left to hit another bar and ended up coming back here. Theres an employee stationed at the womens bathroom reminding ladies to be safe and keep an eye on their drinks. Shes such a wonderful necessity. Mama was her name and she was great to talk with and I really appreciated having her there keeping an eye on us.

I went 5/23/19 for the Trey Songz performance and appearance. Initially, I did receive good service from Summit employees. A middle aged black bald man who went out of his way to get me a seat for handicap accessibility after I was permitted to sit in VIP section until the VIP guests arrived. Also, Georgia the bartender was amazing. For this reason Summit Austin is at least getting some credit here. Now other then this, I waited, waited, and waited for Trey Songz. The DJs (Cali and LX, I believe) kept hyping up the crowd by saying are you ready for Trey Songz or saying Trey Songz was about to come out. 11pm, 12am, 1am, 1:30am still NO SIGNS of Trey Songz. Finally someone comes on the mic and says its the fault of the establishment not Trey for him not showing. Trey arrives around 2am after lights came on and bar closes. Music played briefly when he walked in. Trey picked a few girls for pics (mostly white/Hispanic women) and was barricaded by a flock of security where you couldnt see him or get pics. The music was cut and security was pushing everyone around and directing them out of the building. Terrible event and a disorganized mess.Update: Called Summit this morning and was given a number to call as they stated the event was outsourced to a promoter and not their fault. Will provide update regarding refund status.Update 2: Still NO refunds from promoter

Good music for clubbing and expensive designed buildout. If you want a high end place to party and bottle pop, this is a good choice. Not the cheapest, but it draws some pretty people

Went for SXSW for a ticketed event to see Borgeous. The audio was horrible. I was embarrassed for Borgeous to have to perform under these conditions. World class DJs deserve better. Other than the poor audio in this rooftop bar, everything else was kind of meh. The staff had you wait in line with everyone else, even though you had prepaid for your tickets. There is a single small bathroom for men and women, and the lines are huge throughout the night. The venue is small and made even smaller by the roped off reserved sections. It tries to copy the Vegas EDM clubs, but falls very short in my opinion.

This is a gorgeous rooftop deck bar and club. Two bars flank the dance floor. The dj is awesome. Downstairs serves some great eats as well.

Place is fine location wise. No craft beers, no beers on tap.. beers only in retarded tins. I asked to make a good drink from rum and he served me rum and coke. Never going again.

Went for their country music series and enjoyed the show. Definitely doesnt attract a dancing crowd. Most people just either stood around and watched or minded their business from the VIP tables. I believe this place only works if weather permits so try going on a nice day.

Saturday night dj is killer! Very nice venue and the crowd is always excited. Usually pretty packed. Reserving a table is about 300$ a bottle so its decently priced too.

Check your receipts they add 20% gratuity without you knowing.

Review №18

Summit quoted me a price for the evening (bottle service) and then charged me nearly double what they originally quoted me and won’t correct the mistake. I’ve never had that happen to me before but this is by far the worst experience out I’ve ever had. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE.

No longer has the best EDM in Austin. Overpriced drinks, rude bouncer at the door wholl make you wait longer to try to get $10 out of you while he lets 10 other people in. Used to be able to ignore all of this when the music was the best.

One of the best clubs in Austin. Saturday nights usually feature house music DJs and even on crowded nights there is room to dance. Open roof concept provides fresh air during cooler months.

Great spot for EDM dancing. Late night is when all the really good dancers come out. Always a fun time.

We were there in town for a friend bachelor party. We spent 2 nights there and spent a lot of money in the process. We are from out of town and when I called the day that we were leaving to see if they had my wallet I got no response. The next few days when I got home I kept trying to call them and finally got a hold of someone. They said yes we have your wallet and we will send it to you. She asked for my address and I even offered to pay to have them ship it. It has now been 6 weeks later and they still have not sent it back. The manager I spoke with keeps texting me back insisting that they had it, but I have not seen anything!!!! Not to mention when we were there we saw 1 guy knock out 2 people and the bouncers sat around and just let the guy walk right out.

The least douchiest of the douchbag bars in Austin. This roof top club is where you go when you want to get dressed up, buy bottles and dance. They host some great djs. Sometimes the door guy is nice and lets most people in. Sometimes they try to charge girls $20. If you decide to come here one thing is for sure you are going to have a great time shaking it! (make sure you dress to impress not your typical lax Austin dress code spot).

This place is very much in it for the money.For the How I Met Your Mother fans this is a Woo-girl venue.The sound system is very lacking with only 1 subwoofer and its not even put near the dancefloor. They recently hosted krewella here and it was awful.Maybe 10 people had a good time and they were all crowding the singular subwoofer lol

Awful venue and even poorer security. I do not recommend visiting this bar.

This is another location that sticks out in Austin because of its bottle service. The rooftop is pretty amazing with a good DJ. The drinks are slightly expensive compared to other close locations. This is an East 6th street crowd.

Take your receipts and triple check your bank account afterwards.I went here yesterday with a couple of pals. First off it was 4 of us and I ordered drinks for my friends and was charged gratuity! Once I saw this I crossed out my tip. Today, I look at my bank statement and find out they added the tip that I clearly crossed out. Called Summit to complain only to reach an answering machine. CHECK YOUR STATEMENTS PEOPLE. Total thieves.
