    Great service, super clean and nice vibes with good music. Hookah was great and their menu had so many options.

    This place in Los Angeles is really good, especially for hookah. The hookah was smooth and enjoyable to smoke. I had a great time with a couple of my friends during my vacation to LA. One of my buddies suggested this place, so we tried it, and it turned out to be a great experience!!

    My friends and I came in during a Friday night. Ambiance is great as we sat inside, but the service was great as they offered to turn on the heater if we wanted to sit outside. They also have non-alcoholic drinks like apple and pineapple juice.

    This was a fantastic experience! The ambience was beautiful, although you would not expect it from the parking lot. The interior room has a lot of great blue light, the patio house has adorable porch lights! I felt safe here, I wasn't being harassed with my friends. There was a lot of space in order to have private conversations. The service was wonderful. The owner helped us pick the kind of Shisha that we wanted. Even the hookahs have their own cute little iron so the ash does not get into the Shisha. The price of a hookah is reasonable! Please note that there is a maximum of three people per hookah at 29.99. There are chips and other kinds of dry goods. I wish hummus had been available however, I don't think they have a kitchen. I will certainly be visiting again.

    I've been to a lot of hookah places in LA, but Blue Lounge is awesome. The prices are very competitive and they have a lot of parking space and have huge patio area if you want to sit outside. It's a great place to relax, meet up with friends, or just enjoy your evening.

    Tonight was my first time at Blue Lounge. I had learned that it recently changed ownership and was eager to check out a lounge near me, as there are very few near me in Downtown. When I pulled up to the location, I was pleased to see that there was ample parking available. Upon arriving, the location looked quite small, but as we walked in I was surprised to see how much space there was, especially the back patio! The owner was kind enough to walk us through the location, and show us around, allowed us to choose our pipes and even helped us decide on some new mixes to try out. In under 7 minutes, our hookah was brought out to us with a smile. GG was great about checking on us throughout the session, and my friend and I were both extremely happy with our bowls. We had about an hour and a half session, 2 rounds of 3 coals each on an apple on top wind cover heating device. My hookah was still smoking extremely smoothly by the time I was leaving, it could have probably lasted another 30 minutes. My friend's hookah was cooked at an hour 30, which in my opinion is the time of an average session. As someone who smokes close to 5 hookah bowls a day at home and refuses to try out new lounges, I was really grateful I went to Blue Lounge. I had my own reservations of the lounge prior to tonight because of the negative reviews I had read on here, but I truly believe that this lounge is on its way to becoming a low key hotspot. Whether you're an occasional smoker or an enthusiast, I feel that the service and quality is top tier for everyone alike. I'll definitely be back here again. Thank you for a wonderful first experience!

    I was in town to meet my friends and discovered this amazing hookah lounge. As I pulled up first thing I noticed was ample of parking space. The place is huge and has a back patio which lights up like a stary night. This is one of the cool places I have visited this weekend. They have outstanding spectrum of hookah flavors and the ambiance is superb. The service I got from GG was top-notch, I believe I got my hookah at my table within 5 mins, he gave some amazing mixes and flavor recommendations such an altruistic personality. I would highly recommend this place if you want to have some good time or you plan for a game night. I'd definitely go back to this place and highly recommended for avid smokers. I believe the new management is a game changer for this place. It's like finding a diamond.

    Regal Hookahs!

    It has been 3 years since my last review of this amazing place and it has only become better under the new ownership of GG. I have been a regular ever since the lounge opened and one thing I can say is that service is even more superb than before. They have the best hookahs and customer service in LA. My friends and I hang out here all the time. Great place to smoke, socialize, chill and even celebrate.

    Hi, do you sell liquor or BYOB?

    We don't sell alcohol and no BYOB. Thank you!

    Hi Anthony, so families could come? I was asking because we have someone under 21 in our group, but isn't going to smoke hookah. So I wanted to know if it's okay to have people under 21 enter. Thank you!?

    Everyone has to be 21 and over.

    Do you serve hookah now?

    Yes we do.

The DJ on the main floor, however, didn't seem to be mixing much and mostly replayed the same songs after about 30 minutes. The service was spectacular. We ordered three bottles, which came with a pitcher of juice and four hookahs. You could choose to add mint flavor to the hookah or leave it out, though it still had a slight hint of mint even without it. Everyone also ordered individual drinks, which were about $25 each, and the wine bottle was $85. Anything we needed was brought to us quickly. We didn't get the private belly dancers, I guess they didn't come to work. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely come back again for a special event.

    HAHAHAHAHAH Waitress…read morethought I was an idiot! We ordered 1 hookah and 2 drinks. The machine showed $180. I am like that is kinda high. I asked her if that included gratuity. She said no, I asked again are you sure she says NO. I couldn't check the machine because before she handed to me she went all the way to the tip scree that said additional tip. I was like this SHADY af. I asked for a receipt and she said printer broken. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. So I grabbed the machine back and put my number in to get the receipt texted to me. Low and behold 22% tip and she charged us for water when I asked for tap water. I go back to her and show her the receipt and she is like oh I don't know what that is. I have never seen that before. Pleassseeeeee What a scam artist, she probably has done that to everyone there but everyone there is on a date and no one wants to be embarassed. Well IDGAF. She offered to give cash back and not tell her boss. Honestly he probably knows. Never going back. Ive been here 8 times. EVERYONE CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!!!

From the moment you walk in, you're greeted not just with warm lighting and a relaxed atmosphere, but by a team that truly understands what customer service should feel like. What really separates this lounge from the rest is the incredible service. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, always just a glance away and quick to refresh coals or check in to make sure everything is perfect. You can tell they take real pride in what they do. Orders come quickly, the hookahs are prepared to perfection, and every detail--from flavor recommendations to making sure your seating is comfortable--is handled with care. Whether you're a regular or a first-time guest, you're treated with the same VIP-level attention. The staff here isn't just friendly--they're passionate. They know their flavors, they understand how to mix for the perfect pull, and they genuinely want you to enjoy your time. No question is too small, and they're happy to explain or customize your session. You're not just another customer here--you're a guest. There's no rushed vibe, no cutting corners, just pure hospitality. What really elevates the vibe here is the presence of the owner. You can feel it in the culture of the place--someone who cares deeply has built something special. The owner is often around, chatting with guests, checking on service, and making sure the energy of the lounge stays top-tier. It's rare to find a business where leadership is so clearly involved in the day-to-day experience, and it makes all the difference. It's not just a hookah lounge--it feels like a home away from home, curated by someone who gets it. Add in smooth music, cozy seating, clean interiors, and beautifully presented hookahs, and you've got a place that doesn't just serve you--it hosts you. Whether you're unwinding after a long day, celebrating with friends, or just enjoying a quiet solo smoke, this lounge is the kind of place you'll keep coming back to. It's rare to find a hookah lounge that balances ambiance, flavor quality, and outstanding service so flawlessly. This isn't just a place to smoke--it's a place to connect, relax, and be treated like someone who matters. Highly recommend. 10/10 experience every time.

    Cute Spot with Great Staff but Different Vibes Day vs. Late Night…read more Ambiance and Setup This place is super cute and has a really nice patio style "rooftop" area (technically the second floor). The decor is fun and aesthetic, and it's a great spot for brunch, drinks, or hookah. You do have to walk up about two short flights of stairs to get there. I didn't see an elevator, so that's something to keep in mind. Parking There is shared parking downstairs with the other businesses in the building. During the day it can get pretty full, but when we came late at night there was plenty of parking available. Food and Drinks On our recent visit we ordered the nachos and added protein, and they were really good...flavorful and filling. I've also been here before for breakfast/brunch a couple years ago and the food was great then too. The mimosas were really good, and overall the brunch experience was wonderful. They also offer drinks and hookah, which is one of the reasons we wanted to come back at night. Games One thing I thought was really cool is that they provide some games for guests to play. We didn't end up using them, but it's a fun little touch that adds to the experience. Brunch / Breakfast Experience (5 Stars) When I came during the morning for breakfast and mimosas, the atmosphere was relaxed, cute, and really enjoyable. The staff was friendly and everything felt calm and welcoming. It was honestly a great brunch spot and I would absolutely recommend it for daytime visits. Late Night Experience (3 Stars) We came back late at night around 2 a.m. for food. While the staff and food were still great, the overall energy was very different from the daytime experience. The late night crowd was louder and higher energy, and some of the guests were a bit unfriendly, which made the atmosphere feel a little less comfortable for us personally. This isn't really the restaurant's fault, but it did change the vibe compared to the relaxed brunch visit I had before. Hookah Policy They do have a hookah minimum policy. For example, tables of three must order one hookah, tables of five must order two, and so on. If guests choose not to order hookah, there is a required minimum spend or a small fee per person. Just something to be aware of before going. Service Charge There is an 18% service charge added, so keep that in mind when budgeting. Service The hostess and waitress were both very friendly and attentive. Even when things got busy, they stayed calm and professional, which we really appreciated. Overall Still a really cute place with great service and good food. I'd personally recommend coming earlier in the evening or during brunch hours if you're looking for a more relaxed atmosphere. I'd definitely return during the daytime again.

    I reaaallllllyyyyy wanted to have a good experience here…read more I came here for brunch last year and didn't write a review bc my experience was not too great and I decided to give it a try during the evening when they have events. Well, I brought 2 friends. It was their first time there. Karaoke and a DJ. I called ahead to ask if they had a DJ this night and if we had to make a reservation. The person who answered the phone said "no reservations . Just come." So, we did. After we found parking, the wait was not too long and the security guard had an entertaining personality. (So, that's why I added a star.) Now look...the food and customer service were awful. Just so awful that I am literally taking time to detail every single thing. I ordered a Philly with only meat, cheese, and bread. I just said "I'd like it super plain. Just plain." I specifically asked what comes on it and said "I'd like none of that. Just the meat, cheese and bread. None of the peppers, onions, and mushrooms." The waiter laughed and so did my party. So, it was actually discussed, but in a humorous way. All good, I don't mind them laughing at my order. Also, I asked for truffle fries. The waiter said "there is a $3 up charge." I said "cool." I also asked for Long Island with pineapple juice instead of Coca Cola. My friend ordered catfish. (It arrived waaaayyyyy after everyone else's food) The third person in our party ordered wings. She also ordered truffle fries while we waited on our food. (Those came after all the food. Smh) Oh and our drinks came way after the food as well. The Long Island arrived. It was dark. So, I immediately asked "this has pineapple juice instead of Coca Cola right?" He said "yes." When he walked away. My first sip was almost completely coca cola. My first bite of the Philly was a mound of mushrooms and onions. There is a photo below after he took the Philly bc I said I'll keep the fries. You can see a piece of pepper leftover. My fries never came truffled either. The entire order was messed incorrect. There is more, but I'll just stop here. Horrible experience. The karaoke was entertaining. We all sang, but we were hungry. My friends didn't eat their food batter the waiter left it at the bar for 10 minutes while people breathed all over it. That right there was crazy. So...yea it wasn't a good experience at all. The waiter was a sweet guy, but I was hungry and didn't end up eating anything, but French fries.
