    One of the top best hookah lounges in the south bay area in San Jose, good vibes and opens late daily even on holidays

    Ill get straight to the point. PARKING: spacious especially because most businesses are closed by the time you want to hookah. Called ahead and asked if they take reservations and the guy said they do but when we arrived everyone looked confused, you can walk in and they will make space for you. (You might have to share a table if your party is small) HOOKAH: tons of flavors and combos ! We got the tropical flavor And my friend got the berry splash! Both are good! SMOOOOTH HOOKAH. STAFF: attentive, constantly changing coals and making sure everything is good. MUSIC: they are 2 large screens and multiple tvs , they play all kinds of music videos, from rap, r&b, and even some cultural music. Its a vibe. Bathrooms: CLEAN AND FUNCTIONAL PRICE: we paid $55 for both hookahs and $5 for a redbull , they serve like 3 food items and they sell water and red bulls . Its a chill vibe . No dance floor. Just chill! (this place does NOT sell alcohol it is against city regulations) or something . If its busy you might have to share a booth with someone. When we arrived there as a party of 4 we had to share the booth with one of the workers and his buddies until a table cleared up they moved and we had the booth to ourselves! Still a good time

    Great place to hangout with friends or even alone ! They offer variety of flavors. The staff is really nice and friendly. They do allow only 2 people per hookah. Always fun to hangout here

    We got the second to last one of the buzz section. Above the striker. I forgot the name but it was a good mixture

    First timer here yesterday and it was pretty cool. My friend and I got there around 830pm, empty at first but after an hour ppl came in. The music playing was a mixture of some R&B and rap. Love the whole ambiance of the room. The staff was nice and really good customer service. I will be coming back soon

    The interior and ambiance is so nice and their hookahs are SO GOOD! Best flavors I love are paan, rose, and big boi (watermelon mint but tastes like jolly ranchers). Service is on point!!! Music is mix of desi, Arabic, Iranian, Afghan, and hip hop, Spanish too. Seriously so good, so happy this place opened!

    Highly recommend the $29 hookah option and tropical mix!

    As someone who has been to many hookah lounges in the East Bay, writing this review for Pan Hookah Lounge was a must-I had an EXCEPTIONAL experience! From the moment I entered, I was blown away by the elegant and captivating decor. The couches were the most comfortable I had ever sat in. The custom lit tables were a great touch and I outright love any sparkle. As I sat down, I was immediately greeted by the owner, Sam, and managers, Hela and Afreen. I know my hookah flavors but wanted to try something new and they all suggested a few flavors based off of what I like. I appreciated their patience as I made a decision and clear expertise. Let me tell you...both mixes (tropical and breeze) were amazing!! The hookah itself ($29 option) was smooth and had thick smoke just like I like it! You could tell from every inhalation that they properly clean their hookahs which is not the case everywhere else. Another plus was that they had already started the hookahs before bringing it to our table so we enjoyed a good smoking session from the first hit. No other lounge has done this before. All competitors should stop here to learn a thing or two. You can tell that management truly cares about their product, service, and customer's experience, which is very refreshing. If you love hookah as much as I do, make sure to add Pan Hookah lounge to the top of your list! Thank you Hela, Afreen, and Sam for an enjoyable time. I can't wait to be back soon and try your other location-Double Apple!

    I visited The View Lounge on a random Monday night and was surprised by how busy it was. The lounge…read morewas packed, so be prepared to wait a bit for seating since it's first come, first served. You can order drinks directly at the bar or find an open seat and have a server take your order. It took us about 10 minutes of walking around before we finally found a table. Although the service was a little slow at first because of how busy it was, once we were helped, the experience was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome. The food is definitely on the pricier side, but it's well worth it. Everything we ordered was delicious, and the martinis were especially impressive. If you're looking for a relaxing spot with breathtaking views of the San Francisco skyline, The View Lounge is a great choice. The combination of great cocktails, tasty food, and the incredible city views makes it a place I'd happily visit again.

Servers were frequently walking around attending to all the tables. We loved everything we ate except the tuna ( we didn't like the sauce) the tuna was great we just didn't like the sauce For drinks we had the Garden Fizz, Paloma, and Lycheetini. All wonderful For food we had : charcuterie board, prawn cocktail ( HUGE prawns and my second favorite dish), ahi tuna tataki, chicken adobo tacos and the Prosciutto flatbread ( my favorite!) For dessert we shared the Ube Crème Brûlée I wanted to try the house made chips cause they looked delicious but I was too full. Definitely a great place to come and celebrate!

    If you're new to the game or are too self conscious to visit a more serious setting, fairway zone…read moreis the perfect place to start. This is more of a sports bar setting with TV's everywhere so you don't have to worry about judgmental staff or uptight players. Chances are everyone is too busy watching "the game" to notice your crappy swing. The sim, although tricky and hard to read if you've only played real courses, is accurate and offers a ton of feedback. Gameplay supports up to 4 players unless you set up the golf range setting, then it's basically open season. Only 2 bays available by reservation so plan accordingly. There are some loner clubs if you don't have your own otherwise bringing your set is recommended. We had a bunch of appetizers that were all excellent. We came on a slow night too so no issues with drinks/food orders but I can see that being an issue when it gets lively(then again what restaurant doesn't have this issue when busy?). To my understanding this place just went through a menu/renovation refresh so look to the newest pictures for the most up to date info.

    The ambiance and décor are nice -- and that's about where the positives end. When we sat down and…read moreopened the menu, several items were crossed out or scribbled over, so the food options I had seen on Yelp were no longer available. We had two different servers come to our table who didn't seem to be communicating with each other. As a result, we never received an order of sliders, yet they still appeared on our bill. The bartender also struggled with very basic cocktails. A simple cosmopolitan and a lemon drop -- both extremely common drinks -- seemed to cause confusion, which was surprising. As for the food, it was nothing memorable. One friend ordered a smash burger that was so smashed it included the bun, which I've never seen before. The wings I ordered were small and underwhelming -- five wings for $15 felt overpriced and disappointing. Overall, I don't understand how this place has a 4.5-star rating on Yelp. I left pretty disappointed. The only thing that seems to keep people coming back is the scantily clad servers rather than the food or service.
