First stop...hookah lounge. The first time I went to a hookah lounge was Cairo, Egypt and only for observation. So, we did not stay long and were there only for observation. Based on my research, "A hookah (also called shisha or waterpipe) is a multi stemmed smoking instrument designed to heat flavored tobacco and pass the smoke through water before you inhale. The water cools the smoke but does not remove harmful chemicals." Although it had a different name (Desert Kings), it was a hookah lounge. The room was separated by couches and folks were on there hookah pipes in their respective sections.

I was recently looking for a Hookah place in austin - and heard this was a great establishment to…read morecome check out (as they also double as a coffee bar and great WFH place). For the parking, it was very crowded, as there is only about 8-10 spots! I'd suggest either finding street parking, or trying your luck to find a spot in the parking lot (if you have a truck - it'll be a tight fit!) The hookah experience itself was nice, but I do wish the furniture was maintained a little bit (burn marks in couches, blemishes to table, etc.) to make the whole experience better! Other than that, I would definitely come back to enjoy some of their coffee as well next time!

Mezze Café has quickly become one of my favorite places in Austin. From the moment you walk in,…read moreyou're welcomed with genuine hospitality that makes you feel like more than just another customer. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and perfect whether you're stopping in for dinner, hookah, or a relaxing evening with friends. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Everything we ordered tasted authentic, the portions were generous, and the hookah was smooth, long-lasting, and expertly prepared. What truly sets Mezze Café apart is the people. The owners have clearly built a business around quality, hospitality, and taking care of their guests. The manager does an outstanding job making sure everyone feels welcomed and that every detail is taken care of. You can tell the entire team genuinely cares about the customer experience, and it shows in every interaction. It's rare to find a place that delivers exceptional food, outstanding service, and such a welcoming atmosphere all in one. I highly recommend Mezze Café to anyone looking for authentic Mediterranean cuisine, excellent hookah, and a team that truly values its customers. I'll definitely be back!

I gave 4 stars to give them the benefit of the doubt, but my actual experience felt closer to 2…read morestars. The main problem was the noise. The acoustics were very bad. The hardwood ceiling and the glass window in front of me seemed to amplify sound from every direction. I was with a group of six men, and none of us could hear each other. As the noise increased, every table seemed to raise its volume just to communicate, and it became painful. The food had a BBQ flavor, which was different for Mexican food. Some people may like that, but it was not what I expected. It was 4 star food. I think sitting outside would probably be much better.

From the moment you walk in, you're encouraged to be your authentic self, and you're embraced because of it. This past May, my wife reached out to Kareem and Shareef about hosting a joint birthday celebration. From our very first conversation, it was clear they were just as excited about making the event special as we were. They went above and beyond to ensure every guest felt welcomed, valued, and at home. Our friends and family couldn't stop talking about the incredible atmosphere, exceptional customer service, and the genuine kindness shown by everyone at Aura. The evening was absolutely perfect, and it wouldn't have been the same without Kareem, Shareef, and the entire Aura family. If you're looking for more than just a place to hang out, if you're looking for a place where people truly care about creating community.. Aura is it. We are incredibly grateful for the experience and can't wait to be back.

Okay, it's official. This is the SPOT. All hearts and hugs to the owners and staff for creating and…read moremaintaining such a wonderful space. The service was A1, along with the food and hookah. I love how they have their flavors set up for customers to view and smell what they're ordering before committing to it. Their knowledge and flexibility with mixing the flavors is top tier. The decor is also super cute in every corner, that all you influencers and social media girlies will def get your next viral' post in any spot that you sit here. There's also a vast majority of games that you have access to using with your party at any time of the night! We came in on a weekend night that they had a DJ playing. He had a good mix and although he didn't play much of my requests, he definitely catered to majority of the crowd that was actively dancing and turning it up to make it even more immersive. Because there are so many options in Austin, I can't say that I've repeated going to any place again thus far. But I can definitely say that I will be back here more than once, over and over, until they get sick of me (hopefully not) but to make the point that - we just loved our experience tonight so much. My people and I are so happy and satisfied with this space! Yay to finding this gem!

Still I really like the people that work here, the hookah is consistently good, and wow it's beautiful inside as well. They did a really great job remodeling kasbah.

Amazing to hear the music from below in an open air environment In addition, the 77 degrees DJ was spinning pop, hip hop and other dance music. While the area is relatively small, they had roped off VIP sections with bottle service. We did not have any food as at this juncture we were not hungry. Because 77 Degrees has an open air setting, it was pleasant to sit and watch the band.
