Kind of stashed in a shady strip mall, but I didn't let it bother me going in, and I'm glad I didn't. Very spacious inside, and has a huge wall tv to watch the WC (Mexico won this night).

My wife and I love this spot. Always have. However, we haven't been since 2023. It was nice to see…read morethe new furniture and the new setup.When we arrived at 6ish, we were immediately serviced. We were able to see our favorite server/bartender and that was nice. He made our drinks just the way we remembered... nice and strong...lol. Everything was good until 10pm when the "Club" party began. We were told that we would need to go to the bar for our hookah and drink needs. That ordeal was horrible for the rest of the night. We did not get tended to for our coal refill and repacking needs, even after going to the front several times. The guy kept saying he will come and we watched him go everywhere else each time. We waited way too long. The 1 line for drinks being made by 1 server took extremely long. Although the music was great bring played by the live dj, it did not take away the frustration. No one should have to chase for service that the establishment is known for. No one should have to wait on a extremely long line just to receive a drink at a hookah lounge. This is not a club by any means. Even if you have an event, the establishment should plan much better for the crowd by make it a more efficient and effective experience. The transition was horrible.

I really want this place to work for me because it's conveniently located on this side of town, but…read moreunfortunately, every time I come, I leave disappointed in either the food or the drinks. It's never a win on both. The best thing I've had here so far is the strawberry French toast--it's actually really good. Unfortunately, the worst thing I've had was the waffle portion of the chicken and waffles. The waffles were so hard that I honestly can't believe the kitchen sent them out, and I can't believe I actually tried to eat them! I really want to see this place succeed, but they definitely need to work on consistency, especially with both the food and the drinks. There's potential here, but unfortunately, my experiences so far have been more disappointing than enjoyable.

Charged $10 to add Baileys to expresso martini and claimed it was a shot. Bailey's is not liquor…read moreand has 17% alcohol, so to charge it as if it is a shot is scam activity. That's like charging $10 for a small shot of Hpnotic, especially without notifying that it is that much of an additional charge. I understand an upcharge, but $10 is absurd for what was a splash of Baileys. It wasn't even 1.5oz brought out in those small plastic communion cups. Upon Google review, "A $10 upcharge for a shot of Baileys Irish Cream in an espresso martini is unusually high. Normal liquor and modifier upcharges at restaurants generally range from $2 to $6. The Modifier Premium: Standard bars charge $2 to $5 to add a splash of liqueur.The Standalone Pour: High-end lounges often lack a dedicated "modifier" button for premium liqueurs in their Point-of-Sale (POS) system. The bartender is forced to ring up a full 1.5 oz to 2 oz pour, which carries a baseline lounge price of $10 to $14."

Our first visit was in April 2023 and we had an amazing time and don't remember anything odd about the pricing but this time we went. It was an hour and a half drive for us to get there only to be charged $10 for my husband to even come in then the hookah alone with no drinks or food was $50 after the required 18% gratuity. Hookah was good so no problems there. It's obviously a popular place by the time we left every table was full. For us the price is just a bit much when at other places we could get a hookah and drinks or food for that price. Other nice t hi g is they have games. We played uno

I was there for around two hours.. had my hookah going , had four drinks. Just vibing ( i was by myself too btw) and a guy was sitting right beside me he was alone too. Tell me why the a lady ( I'm guessing she was the owner) came up to me and say 'i just sold this table' so I'm bamboozled honestly because i been here since like 9pm when shit wasn't popping: then she says you can stand up at the bar , I'm sorry. I didn't want to stand up or be around hella ppl that's why i picked to sit at a table.. so i paid my tab and left. I spent like $80 for the hookah and drinks and left a small tip. I was honestly thrown off and mad so the tip reflected that. Although it wasn't the hookah girl fault. But i legit tracked to Charlotte to catch a vibe and this place threw me off. That was so rude . I get she was getting a bigger profit off of the table and it was more ppl but like damn? It's common courtesy.. it was fucked up in my opinion. When supporting black businesses goes wrong.

We showed up after the posted opening time of 6 PM and opened the unlocked door only to be greeted with a very rude "we're closed" from a group of people sitting around an already lit hookah. I asked when they were open and they stated 7 PM. I mentioned the posted open time but wasn't too worried. We went and got a beer to wait out the hour and came back at 7:10 only to find the door now locked and the same group of people having not moved around the still lit hookah. Obviously the people working on Wednesday July 14th were more concerned about consuming their own product than serving customers who came back twice. If hours are different then make the appropriate changes vs having customers find ways to fill the time in between. Additionally, if you're going to say you open at another time, be open and don't be lazy still sitting talking while customers would like to enjoy your business.
