This bar was nice, except that the communication between the staff and it customers was non-existent not to mention some of the staff were not friendly. If your not a regular, expect to not get that great of service. Advertised was $3 shots but when we asked out waiter for the list of what shots were the special, they wouldn't give us an answer on what shots where $3 and told us just to pick an alcohol. Turns out the shots were $10 a piece. When ordering flavors for the hookah our order was not correct. There will be a tip that is non optional on your bill, nor will you be told about this gratuity charge. The only staff members that were attentive where Dylan and Jacob, they had great customer service. read more

It was a really chill environment.... lots of college kids... a really nice crowd.. good place to go to relax and smoke hookah.. highly recomended!!!!!!!! not mention i didnt think it was that bad priced..... 13 for a hookah and 9 for a refil.. and they dont care how many people you go with unlike a lot of the others that have a limit read more

The staff is friendly but the location is hard to find. My biggest issue with the place was how dirty it was when I went. There was ash dust every where. I've been to a few hook a bars and this was the dirtiest one I've been to so far. If you don't care about the ash though it's a good place to hang out. read more

Went to have nice chill evening with a little hookah. This place was great!! The staff and the owner were incredibly friendly, accommodating, and great to talk to. The hookah was definitely the best I've had out! I definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to have a relaxing evening with friends. Comfortable seating and great atmosphere. Will definitely return!!! Thanks, Hookava!! read more

We were visiting Reno and stopped here. Service was great and we enjoyed the hookah very much

The worst hookah session I've ever experienced. They only put one hose on each hookah and they burn the shisha. Their setups suck. They came over 5 times to fix how harsh it was and it never was smooth. The employees were nice, otherwise I would had given it one star. It's also a horribly dirty establishment. They must have nevered cleaned before. Their mothers would be ashamed. The worst part is, they don't serve booze. read more

Reeed is the freaking best!! Recommended the best flavors and was so sweet and accommodating!!! Love it here

This place has the most comfiest feel and by far the best down to earth management I've ever met and I've traveled the coast and Hawaii frequently stopping by hookah bars and this is by far my favorite. Bowls are made to die slow the hoses are high quality and the owner (Ryan) did me a solid for my girl will always come back when I'm in town I wish I could rate higher than 5 stars read more

Hookava is the best hookah lounge in Reno by far. The hookah is always phenomenal, it's packed with flavor and puts out great clouds. The customer service is wonderful, they tend to your hookah whenever you need it and do perfect coal management. You can play your own music on the jukebox and watch world star videos on the tv. Overall the experience is 10 out of 10. If you love hookah or just want a chill place to spend your night Hookava is the place to be. read more

Hookava - Great hookah they let me use my own tobacco - Hookah Bars Near Me - Reno, Nevada

If you are one who enjoys thick clouds and is familiar with what a good hookah should hit like, this is NOT the place for you. They used the most basic, small bowls that would hit well for 1 round, if that, and then become very harsh. There was no cloud, very little smoke. I went last night with some of my roommates around 9 PM and they had one person handling over 10 hookahs. Which shouldn't be a problem if managed well, but service was very slow. It was pretty loud I couldn't hear my friend speaking who was 3 feet away. Overall, it was not a very good experience. I'm giving it 2 star just because they were friendly and the environment was relaxed, but the hookah experience was very poor. read more

Very good little place. Guava with mint taste great. Little suggestion.... needs to clean your bathroom. Otherwise all is good read more

One of the best hookah places I have been to! Their hookah is super smooth! Great service! Always a lively atmosphere! This is my go to place for hookah every time I'm in Reno! Thanks guys! Kudos! read more

Went here for the first time on Friday and I enjoyed myself. The prices were good and the staff was friendly. I consider myself a very adaptable person so even though the scene wasn't diverse the music was and I enjoyed that. The only thing I didn't like was there were no alcoholic beverages. To be out on a Friday night at 11 pm that was missing. Other than that I will be back. read more

Friendly staff, great prices and relaxed lounge atmosphere. Servers handle the hookah and frequently check in to maintain and replace the embers. Great place to spend a few hours for good conversation, drinks, and music. read more

Kind of pricey for a hookah place. Went on a Tuesday night to unwind. Got a lemon melon flavor, it was good. Didn't burn out fast. But I paid about 20 for it. Wasn't worth that much. read more

Visited Reno and found a hookah lounge to hit up. Love the fact that even the cabbies can't find this place. Decor was nice, then it went down hill from there. All the shisha was Hookah Hookah, the trailer trash of shishas. If that wasn't bad enough the house music was nice the 2 seconds i heard it. A table full of bros were blasting music from their phones one rock, one rap... it was awful they refused to stop. Asked the workers, they did nothing because they were friends. The were using some of the crappiest bulk coals I have ever smoked. Then the waitress in her infinite, must have been trained yesterday, wisdom says oh it's time for new coals. No it wasn't she scraped them off all the way across the bowl pushing ash through the foil and into the bowl, making Hookah Hookah taste worse. At this point I ask for a new bowl since she obviously ruined it. They refused. Saying I don't know what I am talking about. Your right I have only been smoking hookah for 10 years and have had brands you never have even heard of. I have never been to a worse lounge in my life. I had to travel over 1500 miles to find one this bad. read more

So, this is our first time at this hookah spot.... Yea, definitely would never come here should we visit again. Our server wasn't the nicest. They sat us at these Ottomans that were very uncomfortable. My friend told our server that her back was hurting and if a booth opened up could we be seated at one. She said it was busy but if one did she would sit as at one. We sat there until two became available. Long behold two other parties who arrived after us and were actually Sat next to us totally not respecting the social distancing, got the two newly available boths. One both was open when we got there. We thought because of the social distancing it wasn't available to sit in. Yet the to new arrivals were seated there maybe 10 mins after being seated next to us. We did inform our server who could of cared less and said they had reservations. Upon us leaving we spoke with the gentleman/cashier who told us we should have asked him personally. Guess requesting that from our server wasn't personal enough, being that the other two parties did the same as us when they were seated. Too bad "no stars" aren't available on here. That's a no go for us. Just come to LA, way better service, seats and hookah. read more

We came to Reno for memorial weekend for a little getaway. My husband loves hookah so of course I came on Yelp to find one near us. That's how I found this place. I put the address on our phone maps and it kept saying arrived when we came to a greyhound station. We were confused and we started looking around and there was only a hotel across the street. It was a quiet area and we thought forget it maybe it's a shady place lol somehow I called the number listed on Yelp. A girl picked up and told me they're located directly underneath the hotel and she was super polite and friendly so it took my doubts to good feelings again. When we walked inside the place was packed and had a very casual, fun atmosphere with dim lights & loud music playing. Just what I wanted. We were greeted right away by an energetic girl and she seated us. Sorry I didn't get any names but then a guy came to take our order. We told him what we liked and he was very attentive & patient. Then he gave his opinion on what we would like even better that was similar to the one we chose. We told him he's the pro and he would know better. I'm glad we took his suggestion bc we loved it! It was a house special that had a grapefruit head (looked more like an orange) and coconut milk base. Amazing! The customer service, the environment & hookah was enough for me to give 5stars & we are def coming back again. Best hookah place I've been to hands down! read more

The only hookah bar in town worth going to. Great service, chill environment, everyone is friendly.

Nice cool little chill spot if you want to get out the house for a few hours with friends . Hookah was amazing & yummy flavors (which was recommended by employee) to help me out with taste ! Will be one of my many definite hang outs since I'm new in town .. read more

Decent prices, friendly staff that always comes around and asks if the hookah is too harsh, which they'll gladly fix if asked. Also, if you don't like the flavor you choose when they first make it, they'll gladly replace it! I frequent this place because of the relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, good music, and good selection of flavors. Keep it up guys!! read more

This is definitely worth it. Great music and great staff, even though it was our first time they were very informative and sweet to us. Very attentive and overall great experience. Will come back :). Mark was amazing! read more

Best hookah place in Reno! One of the owners is a Marine veteran the other one is Turkish! It doesn't get any better than this!

Good customer service. But damn it gave me the hugest headache ever. Was a weird vibe as well.

Do not waste your time or money here. Service is AWFUL! Not even a clean place. By far the worst service I've had. Hookah didn't even work and the employee wouldn't take our drink order and didn't give us a new hookah. Kept saying he was the only one working there (not true) and he didn't have time to wait on us. Never again! read more

This place has made quite the turn around since the new owners took over. Great hookah, great atmosphere, great place to hang out.

Here is the scoop on this place... atmosphere has a great vibe for a hookah bar. Staff is inattentive, worried more about socializing with friends than attending customers. The hookah is TERRIBLE, last 15 minutes till it is burnt so bad it is not smoke-able... Beer prices are fair and it allows for 18 years and up. This review is based off of about a dozen visits to this place, all bad experiences! read more

First time smoking hookah at this lounge. The server was nice and made a good bowl that didn't get harsh. The place wasn't busy yet, but it was very messy and the one restroom was dirty and needed to be cleaned badly. read more

This is my favorite bar in town! The ambience is wonderful and the drinks are very good. This is a great place to go on all days of the week. The staff is also wonderful and very accommodating! You can choose to sit downstairs with a Hookah and cocktail or you can choose to sit up at the bar and enjoy the view of downtown! The location is beautiful and overlooks Wingfield Park (great for art town!) I would highly recommend this bar! read more

Small bar with hooka! The bar has beer and wine only but a large hooka selection (~$15/hooka). The one thing I don't like is that there's no air flow and that place can get stuffy quick. read more

Stopped in on my way to the airport. Great tasting hookahs and super friendly staff! I did the happy hour deal on a double Apple hookah. The place is a little hard to find. I called when I couldn't find it, and got directions. Lots of comfy seating. read more

This place is my favorite ever. Hookahs are great, always enjoy the music. Stuff is very nice and attentive. Always hang out in Hookava with friends and all of us enjoy our time. Thanks, guys, for great service read more

Hookava was an awesome place to hang out! The environment was relaxing and unique. I would definately recomend to anyone that is 18 and over. They have more flavors than any other hookah lounge I have ever been to and the staff was really friendly! I will be back for sure! read more

This place was very FILTHY!! When me and my husband first walked we both smelled urine very bad. We took a seat on the couch area that by the way were disgusting since they were so stained with a small round table that was also very dirty. The lady that was working came up and handed up two filthy menus, I didn't even want to touch it. After I notice a couple other things that were just nasty we decided to leave and find someone cleaner to enjoy our night. read more

This is one of my favorite hangout spots! I'm here all the time. Great service, love the atmosphere, the hookah is excellent, cleanliness is decent especially when they're busy. Price is definitely perfect for what you get. I've been coming here since i was 18 and since the change in owners I'm much more satisfied! It's awesome for after work relax time and great for those who are 18 who have nothing to do. Keep up the great work! read more
