The food came out fairly quickly as did the drinks. I'd give the wings a 7/10, the half chicken was a 8/10 and the steak entree was a 9/10. The desserts were also a 9/10. Upon arrival they were playing really mellow music 90s and early 2000s RnB mixed with little pop and current RnB. Later on they had a live dj and he set the vibes! We also ordered hookah which was good, it wasn't harsh at all!

I was there for the oyster special, and for 50¢ oysters, they were actually pretty solid. Fresh, flavorful, and definitely worth it for the price. They also have buy-one-get-one margaritas, which is always a win. The drinks were well-made and paired perfectly with the laid-back midweek energy. As the night went on, the DJ started doing their thing and the whole atmosphere shifted...in a good way. It went from chill to a full-on vibe pretty quickly. Only downside? Parking can be a bit of a headache, especially once the crowd rolls in. So I'd definitely recommend getting there early if you can. Overall, a great Wednesday night spot if you're looking for good deals, good music, and a lively crowd. I'll definitely be back.

If you're looking for a spot that perfectly nails the "lounge vibe" without the chaotic energy of a…read moreclub, Trio Hookah Lounge is exactly where you need to be. It has officially become my go-to destination whenever I visit Jacksonville and want to get out of the house and actually enjoy my night. First off, the service here is top-tier. The staff is attentive, friendly, and they genuinely make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. And the food? It's consistently delicious. I recently had the salmon, and it was cooked to perfection--flaky, flavorful, and better than what you'd find at most dedicated restaurants. It's rare to find a lounge where the kitchen keeps up with the quality of the atmosphere, but Trio pulls it off effortlessly. Now, let's talk about the main event. In my opinion, Trio offers the best hookah in the city. The pulls are smooth, the flavors are bold, and the setup is always clean. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or just looking for a relaxing smoke, you won't find a better experience elsewhere. The Vibe: It's a true kick-back atmosphere. It's sophisticated and lively, making it the perfect middle ground for those who want to socialize without the deafening noise of a nightclub. The Crowd: Be warned--this place is a local favorite for a reason! It gets rather packed on the weekends. Reservations: To ensure you aren't stuck waiting, I highly recommend reserving a table in advance if you're planning a weekend visit. I can't recommend Trio Hookah Lounge enough. Whether you're there for the vibes, the incredible salmon, or the smoothest hookah in town, you're guaranteed a great time.

Because this place was so close to where I was visiting and looked cool AND was rated highly on here, I was on my way. Right away I was greeted and seated by a hostess named Rosy (she was seriously fun and amazing the whole time). The layout and vibe of the place is so awesome. The DJ played good music, the crowd was chill, and best of all this place serves wine and beer (and food). However, this place gets 5 stars for the customer service. I ordered a brand/flavor I smoke at home on the regular so when I got my hookah, I was certain it didn't taste like what ordered. I let Rosy know and the owner came out to try it. Rosy agreed it didn't taste like gum mint and the owner graciously changed it out. From my experience at hookah bars, flavors can come out differently if the head isn't cleaned well, but the owner insisted they all are. He even brought out the box of shisha so I could see what they're using and yes, it was the exact one I have. After changing it out, it still wasn't right. He came back to check on me and I was honest in that it still didn't taste like gum mint, but I told him it was fine. He offered to swap it out yet again, but at this point I wasn't trying to be difficult. His whole staff and himself had been so nice and I didn't want to be "that customer." The next night I came back with my brother and the owner along with another waitress from the previous night remembered me and once again received excellent service. I have to add that prices are very reasonable for both hookah (if you like Al Fahkar) and drinks, but it's such an awesome place that the bill WILL add up. I can see why this place has such good reviews and I will be back when I visit again.

This was by far the best experience I've ever had at a hookah lounge, and that says a lot for someone who doesn't smoke! The food here caught me by surprise in the best way possible! Not only was I super satisfied with the selection on the menu, but everyone ordered something different and we basically got to see a showcase of menu items. The lowest scoring menu item to us was still a 5.5 which is solid. I would highly recommend coming here, especially with friends. They have good music playing and service for us was a 10 out of 10. I was helped by Brodie and Korey and when I tell you guys they took such good care of us I mean it! Brodie was our bartender, he took the time to perfect each drink & always made sure we were topped off with refills! Korey took care of absolutely everything we could have asked for! From napkins to photos she was willing to do it all! I can't wait to come back here!!! Especially for those egg rolls!!

The establishment is right off of Blanding Blvd with lots of parking. Inside was well lit, spacious and most importantly clean. There were plenty of people inside playing pool but it didn't feel crowded because of the layout. Plenty of pool tables, I didn't count them but there are enough that I doubt anyone waited or even had to wait long to have a turn. We saw 4 electronic dart boards over in a corner and went right over no wait. The bar staff was friendly, attentive and quick. We ordered wings, fried pickles and loaded fries to eat. With sweet tea and the Friday special long island to dring. The food came out, what I would call, relatively quick for the number of people there on a Friday night. The food wasn't overly spectacular I would say it was ok. Expect Your typical bar food but the price was alright and it tasted good. To their credit we just went with typical choices as well so I wasn't expecting something extravagant. Overall: 4/5 - We will definitely be back.

Food -- 3/5 Stars…read more First, let me say that based on the appetizers, I genuinely thought I was about to give the food five stars. My friend ordered the Casbah House Fries, and they were SO good. I ordered the Zaytoon, which is essentially marinated olives, and those were really good too. At that point, I'm thinking, okay Casbah, y'all might be onto something. Unfortunately, the entrée didn't quite keep that same momentum for me. I ordered the Half Rack Lamb Chops, and I felt like my lamb was overcooked. I ended up ordering a side of tzatziki, which definitely helped, but I don't necessarily want to need a sauce to make a $38 entrée more enjoyable. I'd absolutely order the appetizers again, but next time I'd probably try a different entrée--or honestly, just make a meal out of appetizers. Ambiance -- 5/5 Stars Now THIS is where Casbah shines. The place is definitely a vibe. Inside feels a little more intimate, while outside has a completely different energy with the music playing, hookah flowing, and people just enjoying themselves. I also liked the TVs around the bar. It's a small touch, but it makes the space work for sports fans who want to catch a game without necessarily going to a traditional sports bar. I'd return for the atmosphere alone. Service -- 2/5 Stars I'm honestly wondering if they may have been understaffed during our visit. Our server was nice, so my rating isn't about her attitude at all. She just seemed overwhelmed, and unfortunately, that showed in the amount of time it took for her to check back in with us or return with things we'd requested. There were several moments where we were simply waiting much longer than expected. She was pleasant when we interacted with her, but the service itself could definitely have been more attentive. Drinks -- 3/5 Stars The drinks were okay. Nothing was bad, but nothing made me stop and say, Ohhhh, you HAVE to try this. I wouldn't specifically return to Casbah because I'm craving one of their cocktails, but if I'm already there enjoying the atmosphere and hookah, I'd have another drink. Overall -- 4/5 Stars Overall, I'm giving Casbah four stars because despite a few misses, it's still somewhere I'd return. Personally, I think Casbah works better as a "meet your friends, order a bunch of appetizers, get some hookah, have a couple drinks, and enjoy the vibe" kind of place than a traditional date-night dinner spot. And honestly? That's perfectly fine. Every restaurant doesn't have to be everything. Give me those Casbah House Fries, some Zaytoon, good music, a couple drinks, and a table outside with friends, and I could absolutely see myself having a good time here again. What I Ordered: Zaytoon -- $5.00 Half Rack Lamb Chops -- $38.00 Side of Tzatziki -- $2.00 Summer Rose Cocktail -- $15.00 Blueberry Mojito -- $14.00 Service Fee: $8.15 "A small service fee is applied to all transactions to help cover operational cost." Total: $82.15
