Natalia was PHENOMENAL!!! Super attentive!! We had an amazing time and will definitely be back

soo is literally the best!!! request Soo!! I loved her!! and the food was so good. Im obsessed wits all of her tats

Ariana was so knowledgeable and sweet! The atmosphere is great. French fries are awesome!

Unfortunately I did not like this place. I heard it was new, and I wanted to try it out. Although I will say the outside area where you can hookah, and the inside dining area is absolutely gorgeous! My reservation was at 7:30, we sat down, and the waitress did not come to our table until 7:50. Though we did get our water at around 745, I wasn't happy that It took the waitress so long to get to our table to take our drink order. I had to flag somebody down to get the waitress. The food overall was very bland to me, the service was OK, but the prices were actually fair though. We had the chicken and it was really dry, the rice was very moist and delicious but yeah, the chicken was way too dry and not seasoned at all. The spicy feta hummus was bland to me as well, & not really spicy. The drinks were way too strong. I did like the cauliflower appetizer, but it was actually just fried cauliflower, and there was no taste to it. I had to dip it in some thing for it to have taste. The Inside area like I said, was very very beautiful though! And finally another area you can smoke hookah while lounging. For 7 total dishes (appetizer, sides, & entrees & dessert) I paid $130 Overall I wouldn't be back. read more

2 stars but only for the aesthetics. This places has a lot of potential but unfortunately I will not be back. All of the other yelp reviews are true. The food and drinks are not worth the price at all. The drinks are overpriced. Same for the food and the portions are small, our server suggested that a table of 5 share the popcorn chicken that is pictured. The service was not good. Our server spilled shots on our table and did not offer to comp anything. The bar manager was very pleasant and enjoyable. We sat on the inside and was added on the waitlist for the outside patio for hookah. We were added to the waitlist at 7 PM and checking periodically. The time got closer to 10 PM and the hostess informed us that the table was available for us however it became unavailable for the owners. We wasted 3 hours when we could have been elsewhere. I do not recommend going here, it does have a vacation feel to it but that is the only perk. It is overpriced with bad service. read more

Andrea was AMAZINGLY beautiful! Her service was perfect and she satisfied all of our needs and gave great recommends. Best out of town experience. read more

Amazing service & Arianna was such a great host! Food was delicious and the ambiance was so beautiful :)

This place is beautiful!!! The ambiance is definitely there. They do have a dress code, I'd check before you there. The food was definitely overpriced and the best. I'd eat before I go. Service was alright, they do take awhile to bring your food/drinks. They do have hookah and it's expensive and not really worth the price. I'd say go if you never been, but it's not my first option to pick from. read more

Great place to go enjoy hookah, cocktails or Mediterranean Indian food. Deserts were very delicious also. My server, Brooklyn, was AMAZING. She wax ver informative about menu, very engaging and made me enjoy every moment of me time there. The Hostess was simply divine in catering to my needs for a great table with perfect views of restaurant and appropriate seating. Being a member of the National Press Club of Washington DC and a black card member, I look forward to enjoying life only at the most amazing placed offered. I highly suggest anyone to come here az well as black card members. Great for special events, business meetings and family and friends. Will definitely come again as they are officially on my list of favorite places to enjoy in downtown dallas. ENJOY! read more

I did not try the hookah or any cocktails, so please consider while reading this review. My first experience at Saaya was pretty enjoyable! After a walk on Katy Trail with a couple girlfriends, we were able to get sat inside immediately (time was 2:30pm). We opted for street parking, but there is valet (unsure on price). The non-alcoholic drink options are Pepsi products and mocktails, no iced tea or lemonade. We started with the popcorn chicken and ended up getting a second order because they were so yummy! I enjoyed the French fries (Sumac fries) that came with the chicken shawarma, but the entree itself was just decent. The chicken was warm and it didn't have a ton of seasoning. Not pictured was a spicy feta appetizer that was delicious! Added tastiness was dipping the fries in the feta... super yum! Thank you for having us, Saaya! We will definitely be back. read more

Loved the ambiance at Saaya. We enjoyed the Mediterranean menu (both food and drink) with influences from Turkey, Lebanon, Iran and so forth. There's also a solid hookah menu with many flavors. Enjoy the patio space when the weather is nice! read more

The ambiance of this place is just WOW. We chose outdoors so we could do hookah, but on the day we had a reservation, there was slight rain so they closed down half of their outdoor seating - unfortunately they gave 2 member table to 4 and it got super cramped with food, drinks and hookah - so a little disappointed there, coz in places like Saaya we pay for experience. We ordered the platter, and that serves 3-4 people and the food was good no complaints with that. The first hookah we got burnt out really quick, so the server was kind enough to change it for us, the fruit base was really good addition to the hookah experience. read more

I had a terrible experience with the doorman Shane, at the front entrance of this place. He was extremely unprofessional and displayed outright racist behavior. It was shocking and upsetting to be treated that way, especially at a place that claims to offer good hospitality. Management seriously needs to reevaluate their hiring and training process because no guest should ever be made to feel disrespected or unwelcome based on who they are. I won't be returning unless there are major changes and accountability for this kind of behavior. read more

Amanda is the Best. Best Customer service and food is great . Definitely recommend and revisit

The food was great. I liked the lamb chop sliders and the popcorn chicken! The ambiance was a vibe, I'd definitely come back on a Sunday to have drinks with friends! Also, shoutout to the security guard. When leaving a homeless person tried to instantly follow my friend and I. He got super close and told him to stay away from us. He really went about and beyond in that situation. I'll definitely be back. read more

We made a reservation and we were seated as soon as we got there. Our server was so sweet and helpful when it came to asking what we should order. The food was amazing, we ordered hummus as well as the sumac fries and added beef shawarma (order that, you won't regret it!) The restaurant is beautiful, it felt like we were in Miami. read more

Got a chance to finally visit Saaya this past weekend!! It was a great night out. We arrived fairly early so the place was moderately filled up. We had a nice table outside which was great because it was a beautiful night and the ambiance on the patio is great. We ordered on the happy hour menu and the food was pretty good. We had the potatoes, chicken bites, dip trip and pita. All very tasty! Drinks were decent... very pretty presentation. We also had a hookah which was just ok.could have had stronger flavor. Our server was great! Very attentive and informative about the menu etc. I would recommend going for a sexy date night or out with the girls! read more

My boyfriend and I have been here on two separate occasions and both times have been great! Most recently Juliette took care of us and she was AMAZING!!! Super attentive and kind! Please ask for her next time you come in!! read more

The food was okay, but the drinks were fire and Sue was an amazing server!!!!!!! The ambiance is very cute and chill too. Great happy hour menu too read more

Good food and vibe but the service is so bad. The waitress never came around, forgot dishes, and left us waiting a majority of the time.

Soooo glad I didn't read these Yelp reviews before going here. Me and my bf stopped in on a Thursday for happy hour... let me just start by saying the food and drinks were absolutely delicious and VERY reasonably priced and portioned for happy hour. I had the Abubus drink and my bf grabbed a bottle of Pinot noir. We had the Greek salad (10/10 recommend so delicious and fresh), lamb sliders (10/10 well seasoned and well cooked), dip trip with hummus, tzatziki, and spicy feta (9/10 the spicy feta was the star of the show), and he got a chicken rice bowl (I didn't have any but he said it was tasty). Service was great, we ordered hookah (1/2 priced for HH) and it was some of the smoothest hookah I've had in the states. At the end of our meal, one of the employees came over and asked if they could have done anything better and we had no complaints. Wonderful experience. The ambiance is beautiful and the vibes were immaculate. Yall should definitely check them out. read more

Sue was our server and she was great! Very attentive and considerate and a sweetheart! The food and hookah was so great. I'll be coming back soon! read more

Amazing place!! loved the atmosphere and our bartender, Giulia was incredible!! so knowledgeable and made us the most delicious drinks!! 10/10 read more

SUE IS THE BEST MY QUEEN. The food was amazingggg and great vibes. Love this place great place

Saaya has the best bartenders ever! Very good service and very nice. The drinks are really good.

We had a party of 7, outside seating. They stuck us in a corner with seating for only 5 with two plastic chairs for the rest. The atmosphere and food and drinks were great. And we ordered plenty of all. (Over $600 tab) Then, they sent a hostess over to tell us they had a reservation coming up and we had to leave or go to the bar. And our dessert had yet to be served. That's not a knock on the service, it was very good! We're also heavy tippers, so that wasn't a problem either. But the audacity to tell us we had to leave with a tab as high as ours AND they had yet to serve the final order was ridiculous. Do better, guys. read more

First time at HH here, vibes, food and drinks were great and so was the service. Thanks Madeline!

The way they automatically add 20% and then give you the option to add tip on top of that without making it clear is a very unethical business practice. They show you a subtotal before you swipe your card, but then when you select the tip it is in addition to the 20% they automatically add. I only noticed this because I check my credit card statement and the charge was significantly higher than the subtotal (almost double) that I recalled seeing before I tipped. If you notice they did this I would suggest just disputing with your bank. They will not answer your calls (even if you leave a VM) or emails, but thankfully your bank should be able to process your dispute. Food was good and ambiance was really fun in the courtyard area, but we will not be coming back due to the way the business handles their tipping practice. read more

Nikant was the man, he hooked it up with the hookah. The place look very nice and authentic, I don't even feel like Im in dallas

Nikant gave amazing service - hookah was on point and he was very attentive. I highly recommend Saaya. It never disappoints!

Nikant, the hookah was really good! Always really great service and friendly service.

This was a great place for happy hour! The drinks were delicious and I love that happy hour lasted until 8pm! They also had some small bites on their happy hour including the lamb sliders and the zaatar popcorn chicken which were both delicious! I suggest asking for a side of their garlic aoli! It was perfect paired with the chicken. The ambiance was perfect and a great place to grab a few drinks and appetizers with the girls. read more

Amazing service by the bartender Giulia! She treated our party amazing. Drinks were to die for, she will leave you wanting more.

Giulia is the best bar tender!! She took such good care of me! Will definitely be coming back because of her!

Had a good time at Saaya, its a cool place to chill and have drinks with friends. And Giulia provided an amazing service, super attentive and friendly read more

Amanda was fantastic, the service level was great. The only thing that would have been better was the hookah service (clearing the bowl mid smoke), and be seated outside. Tables outside never filled up... read more

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. My party of 4 arrived here around 9 pm on a Saturday after leaving a nearby bar. After waiting at the bar ordering overpriced, underwhelming cocktails, we received a notification that our table was ready. Even though we reserved an outdoor table, so that we could smoke hookah, we were told we were being seated inside because that's all that was available. We declined indoor seating and after another 20 mins or so we were seated outside. Before seating us the hostess let us know that we only had an hour at our table. We were seated at a table in the back corner of the restaurant with a used hookah still present. While waiting for our server to arrive, the bartender walks over to our table with a receipt and accuses my friend of not paying her bar tab. My friend reminded her that she paid in cash and the bartender awkwardly tried to laugh it off, but never offered an apology. At this point we were pretty much over this establishment, but we were already seated so we decided to give it one more shot. Our server finally arrives and we order food, drinks and a hookah. When the attendants brought the hookah over, I asked for a couple more mouthpieces but one of the guys refused saying that the hookah was only for two. I let him know that I would still like a couple more mouthpieces, and he proceeded to ask me if I "knew how to speak English" and repeated that the hookah was only for two people. That was the last straw. We decided to leave and go spend our money elsewhere. On the way out, I went to speak to the manager about our experience but she seemed disinterested and offered no feedback or apology for her staff's rude behavior. Just do yourself a favor and avoid this place. read more

Food was absolutely delicious, even though it wasn't super warm. The venue is huge with lots of cute Instagram worthy backdrops. They also have karaoke bubbles that you can use with reservations. The drinks and food were definitely pricey but it was good. read more

Saaya - Shawarma platter - Lounges Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Epitome of Homophobia and Xenophobia! I was traveling for a work conference, and on a Sunday evening, my friend (who is brown and gay) and I decided to go out. Like many others, we were wearing shorts. However, when we approached the entrance, the bouncer (a short Latino man) stopped us, claiming our shorts didn't meet the dress code, even though we were wearing dress shorts. I pointed out someone else wearing ripped jean shorts and asked why those were acceptable but ours weren't, given that we had just come from a work happy hour. When I pressed him further, he admitted it wasn't really about the shorts. This kind of discriminatory behavior is appalling and especially disappointing for a place that presents itself as so vibrant and welcoming. Save yourselves the trouble and avoid this establishment. read more

Came here with my best friend when I was visiting Dallas. We had dinner and some drinks. It's super cute and lively inside. The decor is out of this world!They have belly dancers who dance with fire on their head which was very entertaining. The service was ok but our server Holly upcharged me seven dollars extra for a lemon drop ($22 total wtf) because she said that it was a "martini style" whatever the hell that means. Mind you nearly the same exact drink from the menu was $15. It's also loud AF. read more
