The service was outstanding from the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted and seated right away. While I'm not personally a hookah smoker, the atmosphere was still enjoyable; I could see how it might feel different if the space were full of smokers, but it didn't take away from our experience during this visit. The food arrived hot, fresh, and full of flavor, and the drink specials were just as impressive. This place is truly a hidden gem for lunch, offering great value without compromising quality. The music added to the vibe, and I can easily imagine it being an even livelier spot in the evening. What really stood out was the owner taking the time to visit our table, that level of hands-on hospitality makes a big difference. The bathrooms were clean, the water was hot, and everything felt well-maintained. Overall, a great experience with excellent service, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. read more

My boyfriend and I came here for hookah and drinks. The venue was very nice, I liked the black decor. There were also ample seating options. We sat at the high top tables across from the bar. I feel bad that I forgot her name but our waitress was the sweetest girl ever, she made our evening so enjoyable. I was full from everything that I had already eat that day so I was just enjoying my espresso martinis and hookah. My boyfriend did order the nachos and added chicken. He liked them a lot. The music was giving early 2000s vibes with a heavy emphasis on Nelly which was interesting lol we were expecting to hear a lot more Louisiana rappers. The vibes were great tho, the hookah was super smooth and I enjoyed my drinks. We had a great night. I would definitely recommend for a cute date night out. read more

I visited this restaurant for a laid-back evening to watch Game 7, and the service was excellent from start to finish. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed and able to seat ourselves anywhere, with staff ready to assist right away. Our drinks and hookah arrived within minutes of ordering, which was impressive. The servers were friendly, attentive, and consistently checked in on us, making sure our hookah coils were refreshed throughout the night. The food came out incredibly fast, almost surprisingly quick, yet everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The atmosphere was a vibe, especially with the live DJ keeping the energy up. If you're looking for a spot to watch sports, enjoy drinks, hookah, and live music, this place is definitely worth checking out. I highly recommend giving this spot a try! read more

My new fave little spot! We stumbled upon this place from a little recommendation from our uber driver and it did not disappoint! Service was absolutely amazing, food was incredibly good and the vibes were just right. We came late on a Thursday evening and had wanted to grab some late night food and everything we ordered came out freshly made and flavorful. The wings were my favorite, they were crispy, LARGE and the Thai chili was such a good flavor. Plus the baba ganoush was prepared well too, and I'm really picky with my Persian dishes. I really have nothing but great things to say as the hookah was also really good- they had every kind of flavor and tier you can think of and the hookah people were attentive, consistently bringing out more when needed, and assisting as well. This place is on the second floor or the Buffalo Wild Wings but they had an elevator which was a bonus for me, since stairs were a little tricky for me. You've got come - this place is great all around. We literally came back twice. read more

Nice chill spot to come hang with friend or for a date if you smoke hookahs. There is food and drink service from the bar. It is always a nice chill vibe with good music playing. There are nights where they have a DJ and you can do a little dancing if you'd like. The inside is decorated slightly and there are some pretty photo ops. Want to enjoy and nice, chill, laid back night out, this is a great place to visit. It is located above the Buffalo Wild Wings and there is plenty of parking, as well as some street parking. read more

They have a great happy hour during the week. The hookahs are prepared pretty quickly and the wait on food time is low. The bartenders are great and can whip up anything that you ask for. The humus trio is my absolute fave! The Metairie location has a good view of Veterans Blvd and cute sections to relax in. Sometimes they lift the massive windows and it gives off a rooftop-adjacent vibe. read more

Second time at Bianka and this was better experience! Nathan and Nick were extremely attentive and kind. They made sure we were satisfied and enjoyed our food and drinks.

Nick was our server he was very good. He made suggestions....clowned with my friends and I. While I waited for my friends to arrive. I had a hookah rose + mint (with ice ). It was well balanced. Both of my friends had salads. I had a chicken swarmer I really didn't care for it. The rice and the chicken didn't have any flavor. The peace, Peter Bruis paper thin. They serve this dish on a wooden circular board. And he put one piece of pita bread with the pickles and tomatoes on top of the pita bread, which made it really soggy. They should not play this dish with the pita bread at the bottom. I will definitely go back for happy hour and get a side of potatoes. read more

I'd heard good things about the food here, so a friend and I stopped in one day while we were out running errands. We had some trouble finding the entrance at first; it's above the Buffalo Wild Wings and there wasn't any signage clearly stating that you had to enter through the BWW. We finally figured it out when we went inside the BWW and smelled the Hookah, we knew we were close! We found the stairs and were greeted by the hostess after we completed our ascent. We came on a Saturday maybe around 3 or 4 o'clock, so it wasn't super busy yet and we got to have our pick of tables. It's quite spacious with a really nice view. We got the hummus trio and chicken shawarma to split. I really enjoyed the hummus trio, it came with spicy, pesto, and avocado hummus. All of them were delicious, so it's hard to pick a favorite. I think the pesto may have just narrowly inched out the others if I just HAD to choose. The pita was cold and I was anticipating it being warm, but it wasn't bad at all. The chicken shawarma was good as well, very well seasoned. It came with the chicken, of course, rice, and tomatoes, onions, and pickles for toppings. I rather enjoyed it, I just wish it came with more rice. I also tried their blueberry lemon drop which I really enjoyed. Their spirit and cocktail menu is extensive, so there's a little something for everyone. It's a cute vibe and I can definitely see it getting a lot more live in the evenings. The music was really good and a good mix of today's hits and throwbacks. I'm not really a fan of hookah, so if I return it will likely just be for food and drinks. It was raining on the day we went, so I am curious to know if the windows open. There were a few folks smoking hookah and it really irritated my eyes, but I think a little more ventilation would have taken care of that. read more

I was here for a birthday celebration with the party of eight. The wings were mediocre but the drink was decent. The restaurant is located on top of Buffalo wild wings. They should just partner with Buffalo wild wings for the wings. They only offer two flavor wings, buffalo and barbecue. The margarita was OK but the vibes and music was good. I wish there was a nicotine free hookah option. The waiter was friendly but didn't check on the party often. We were there during happy hour, and there was only 4 others dining at the time. read more

Came here on a Friday night for a Girls Night post dinner nightcap. We ate at Los Jefes and I had been making it a point to pop in Bianka ever since I saw they were open. It is located on the second floor of Buffalo Wild Wings in Metairie, so I didn't know what to expect from an ambiance standpoint. When we entered the lounge, I was pleasantly surprised. It was a very nice spot and I loved the floor to ceiling windows. They have a pretty extensive menu, but given the previous reviews, I am kind of glad we didn't eat there. I don't remember our servers name, but she was sweet. When we were sat, it did take her a while to come to the table, but once she did, she apologized and proceeded to take our drink orders. I ended up ordering the peach martini vodka and my two girlfriends both ordered the blueberry margaritas. The drinks were great! We did wait an extended period of time to order the second round because once our server took our drink and hookah order, we didn't see her for a WHILE. We ordered the LA Dream hookah and it had more of a fruity taste to it and it was pretty good. In addition to the slow service, the music lacked variety. It was definitely more of a middle eastern type of sound, which would work, if there were other genres incorporated into it. A hookah lounge should cater to all patrons and the music should definitely be high energy and captivating to all parties. Overall, my experience wasn't horrible and I would probably visit again, but I don't think I will add this location into my regular hookah spots that I frequent. read more

Most horrible hookah experience, food is not good at all and please don't have an issue with your food or anything because Jordan is horrible. Well all staff is, the place just opened and it's bad. I spent 66 Dollars and they wouldn't give me a discount because my food was nasty and cold. Did not try to accommodate me at all. I'm a manager and this was horrible !!!!!!! -stars if I could and if you come as a group they will charge The largest bill the highest amount. I had to give a mandatory tip to a horrible waitress ....... read more

Decided to visit this establishment yesterday. Surprised to see a hookah spot in the Metairie are. The place looks beautiful, but there are many of subpar elements. The drinks were delicious, some of the food was delicious. I did enjoy the hookah. Unfortunately, the music was not something I expected in a lounge. There was no mix of different types of music, and it appeared that the owner was only interested in playing a YouTube video of an Arabic DJ. Our waitress last night even commented that her energy was lacking because the music was not anything that encouraged fun and excitement. I decided to visit again today with some friends. The music was still the same selection: the YouTube Arabic DJ. When we wanted to speak with the owner, he was not interested in talking with the ONLY customers in his establishment at the time. It was laughable, no one else was visiting and he was too "busy" to speak to guests. I am not sure the vibe this place is going for, but seems that they are not interested in listening to customer feedback. Unfortunately, if you aren't able to receive constructive feedback, how do you expect to run a successful business. I don't think I'll be visiting again! Hope this helps someone else. read more

Decided to try this spot out and it's not the place to have a meal. If you're hungry EAT BEFORE YOU GO! Lamb chops were small and dry. The veggies weren't tasty. Oh and they were out of rice. I opted for a side salad. It was ok. My boyfriend ordered a ribeye cooked medium. It was way over cooked, more like well done. Since they were out of rice for his dish as well he opted for fries. The steak wasn't seasoned at all. No taste. I'd suggest making a smaller menu focusing on things they can make well. Because the menu is too big! Hookah was fine. And our server/bartender was sweet! I will say after we were seated it took a while to get a server to the table. There was a young lady working the floor who I assumed would be our server, but she never acknowledged us. Eventually the bartender came over and assisted us. She made great well balanced drinks! But the service is pretty slow. The decor and vibe is nice. It's really chill and laid back. I'll just be back for hookah and scenery that's it. Best advice again is to EAT BEFORE YOU GO! read more

First time visiting was the day after Christmas and I must say I was impressed! It was pretty slow that day so service was great. We had wings, drinks, hookah, and dessert. The wings were small but that's how I like mine, I don't like that they don't stock ranch though. The hookah was on point, and it was $20 I love that for me!! The dessert I had was the chocolate mousse and it was delicious as well. The atmosphere was great, lighting was perfect. All and all I give this visit a 9 out of 10 and I will definitely be back. read more

Came here on a Saturday night, I believe it was the second day open. The establishment is very nice and laid back, but it doesn't call for much of a dress code tbh. The staff were very attentive and helpful, even going to the back to find out exactly what was in a product I asked about. The view of Vets is nice and the open/outdoor around the seating area is nice. The Arabic music was different, and nice in the beginning but I agree with the other reviewers that they should switch it up to match multiple clientele's liking. The drinks and hookah were all amazing. I am planning on going back to visit and will update my review based on the next visit. read more

God I wish I could give this place negative stars. No matter who's in my party, what we order or when we go it's always some issue or some complete BS. I've tried to give this place the benefit of the doubt multiple times but every time I've been let down or essentially humiliated if not outright ignored. The first ever experience here was cool, nice vibe, decent music and average food. Every return visit afterwards has deteriorated. Second time ever we went here, me and my fiancée were basically the ONLY people in the entire building and sat there waiting to be seated for nearly 20 minutes. Some random group of people comes and sits down with no hesitation and were served so I threatened to leave before we finally got the most minimal help possible (the girl was new) .. I'm so tired of hearing "_______ was new" at a place that automates gratuity for parties over a certain size. Third time was a few months later to celebrate my mom's birthday and I kid you not, another "new" person spilled FOUR drinks all over my mom completely ruining her whole birthday celebration. We were moved to a new table and STILL was billed for 2 of the 4 spilled drinks!!!! Next time was when some friends from out of town came to visit and wanted a good cool hookah place to begin their Nola experience and unfortunately I recommended this place. They had 2 hours before closing and still let us order food and drinks but because it was an hour and a half before closing, EVERYTHING took over 40 minutes to get to us AND IT WAS COLD!!!!! The entire visit felt rushed, like our money wasn't good enough and they had the balls to apply an auto gratuity. Last and final straw was tonight when I was with a party of 6 and was being seated and, understandably it was really packed and rocking due to the fight, but we get to the table and it's a four top. We get explained how the staff isn't allow to move chairs but we can if no one is sitting there. Humiliated and embarrassed in front of over 200 people probably only for us to get damn near to the car to be called by the other half of the party who tells me how "they found more chairs" because he "felt bad". I wish I could bill them for PTSD or something because this place is just awful. Average food, complete and utter SHIT for customer service and reasonable hookah prices. If you have ABSOLUTELY NO other options and just need a reason to get out the house..... go to Shake Shack or hell just go LITERALLY ANYWHERE ELSE IN METAIRIE. I can't NOT recommend this place so much, I feel like they owe me money for all the utter wasted visits and time I've been here. -10/10. read more
