Absolutely unacceptable. Awful customer service. We got here no host in the front as we approached half way through a guy average height approached us and asked us how many people. We said 3 but maybe 5. He said ok. We asked to sit inside and he said all 5 has to he here. I said forget them. 3 of us are here and we want to sit in side. He said let me check and left to come back. 3 people came after us and he let them sit inside and then told us he no longer has any sitting for 3 people. I confronted him they came after us and why you let sit before us. He said he made a mistake. I said ok how long is the wait for the inside. He said 10-15 minutes. I said ok can we sit at the table you mentioned he said no, once you sit I can't change your sitting anymore. I said since you made a mistake let us sit there out of courtesy and then you can move us. He said again no I can't do us. He told us to wait inside for 10-15 minutes. In the meantime we are waiting one set 3 people and and a couple went already sit. Absolutely uncustomary and I have never felt this much disrespected and treated badly. After confronting with the couple of them knew us. They instantly begin to apologize and trying to fix thing. Will most likely go out my way to make sure I won't come back nor let any of my friends to come here neither. read more

It's interesting how this place works so it's an area outside the mall that turns into a hookah place at night. Very smart idea in my opinion. So I was hesitant to come here based on my friend's experience but I didn't mind this place at all! We didn't have to wait for a Friday night just few mins and got a table for 7 people. Has the shisk kabob plate and I thought it was tasty. I shared it with my fiancé and it was more than enough. I also tried the truffled fries and they were really good. My hookah was good. They came to fix it Bc it wasn't good initially. Overall great service despite them being busy they provided great service. They have refills for tea FYI. Will come back again read more

First time here. Great place with great food, and great service! Got the salmon kabob and it was amazing! I looked forward to bringing some back home but left it on the table when I walked away. When I returned to retrieve it, it was naturally picked up and discarded - totally my fault. Ruiz and his team had no hesitation to make me a new one. They didn't have to but they did. Great first impression, great "spot"! Will be back. read more

Wish this was halal! It is NOT HALAL no meats are halal. However, the vibe is pretty cool and the salads and tea are really good. Just wish it was halal! read more

This is my #1 late night spot to go around LA and Valley area for chilling and after party . #1 to order is their hookah of course. They have so many soft drinks and juices along with tea and hot and cold dishes. This is mostly outdoor seating area with heaters in the night and amazing service. The owner is checking on every tables individually and follow up most of the days of the week and he is there on weekends all the time. Never got disappointed since 2012 it's been 9 years we are keep coming back to this place . They always refill the tea and water as many times as needed with no extra fee. Anyways this is the best place to smoke hookah and eat quality food for late nights around LA no doubt. Highly recommended . read more

The Spot - $8.00 for this ? Are you kidding ? Is the the side of the side salad? - Hookah Bars Near Me - Encino, California

Been here many, many times. Never disappoints. Love the vibe, the music. We had a wonderful server who always made sure our teas were filled. Their prices have gone up over the years, but so have many other restaurants... They've also expanded their menu. I highly recommend the watermelon feta salad with grilled chicken. The watermelon, feta, and chicken were so fresh. I at least didn't feel bad about spending so much since the food is well-made. read more

Let's see where to start the service was horrible whatever I was use to it they fixed the order which was mint hot tea We ordered some food also So we got a refill not an issue since they are free before we even left we asked for a refill of our tea one of our friends paid for the hookah and one tea the tea she bought for our friend that was sitting at the table. So we asked for a refill in a Togo cup the waiter that was helping since the first person was very incoherent maybe left for the day not sure. He charged my card for a additional two plus the two drinks and we paid for one so once that was clarified so it seemed Bobby one of the owners of this establishment came up also and I tried to explain it just to make a ten dollar transaction They tried charging for 5 drinks 1 was paid the two we actually ordered and 2 additional refills that's insane I told them to refund me I never did i put void in the receipt hope that helps read more

I been coming here for about over a year and most of the time it's really hard to get a hold of some charcoal. This evening we decided to just get a hookah and we asked for charcoal 5 times from multiply people. And still no charcoal. We decode to leave. Very upset with the service evening. The place does close till 3 and it's only 1am. read more

I have lived in Encino for more than 19 years. I thought I knew every eating spot ( no pun intended) there is but, I was wrong. Last night after returning from a concert at 1:30 am, my friends and I were starving. A friend suggested to go to The Spot. So we did. What an operation. I was shocked. Being in restaurant business myself for over 35 years, I was amazed how the organized chaos at The Spot was very similar to a well written Opus. Staff were moving at the speed of light, yet each and everyone knew their responsibilities and worked in harmony with others. Despite the full restaurant and a waiting line, our food was on our table within 20 minutes after we were seated. How???? Even In & Out falls behind on occasions. Well, the koobideh ( ground beef kabob) was fantastic. Even chips and guacamole was good. We're needlessl to say, I had to try the Barg (filet magnon). So, today that is what we had for lunch. IT WAS GOOD . In general, the atmosphere is okay and I it is a haven for the younger crowd. Price maybe a tad high, but if you want good quality food, you should pay a little more. The Spot has become my kitchen away from home. read more

Was there Monday night. Really cool place. Had a great server who was friendly, quick witted, and attentive. Think her name started with a t. She was short! Will be back! read more

Love the hookah , love the food. Great ambiance! Service awesome !!! Over the years this place is the go to because every time we go some where else we end up saying why didn't we go to the spot read more

right spot for good Persian/Iranian food. One of the best I have been too in the Valley. Great Hummas and Beeef Khobediah here we enjoyed, and many other mixes with Pita bread. Place is great with a upscale kind of Middle Eastern vibe to it. Nice employees and so much food. We also had a few good drinks at the Hookah bar too. I gotta say, one of the best I have had the pleasure and luck in coming too. read more

I've been a regular here since High School, and my 10 year reunion was over 5 years ago. This is THE SPOT for delicious food, excellent hookah and service. They have a dj that plays nice music on weekends. It's located in an outdoor strip mall in the Encino Commons. Perfect location with free parking - no frills and nothing fancy. Great prices, great portions. They do not serve alcohol which is the ONLY negative. Still worth 5 stars for all the goodness here. Keep up the awesome business! read more

I am happy they are open outside again. I highly recommend they're mozzarella sticks they're totally to die for. The service here is fast and the seating is nice and shaded. I would come before 5, as it is a better deal and way less crowded than at night. They have quite a lot of food on their menu and next time I'm hoping to try the Oreo shake!! They're next to a lot of businesses like Yogurtland, so you best believe after a couple hours here we stopped there. I would recommend this place to a friend and its a nice casual spot to hang out. read more

I've been twice and the service was absolutely horrible. The waiters never came to check on our table. The second time visiting, I was denied because I had an out of state ID..... I'm 26. The manage was also extremely rude. I don't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Have been coming here for years. No matter what time of day i come in im taken care of by their kind staff don't have to wait in line for long at all and if i do it's only a few minutes. They make sure to go out of their way to ask you if you need anything multiple times during your visit. The food is always consistent and delicious. Always my go to for hookah in the valley. read more

Tremendous establishment. Yesterday I ordered through DoorDash and received a call indicating that the restaurant provided the driver with the wrong order. I called the restaurant and a lovely lady picked up and listened to my concern and frustration. Regardless, that same driver went back and the associate at spot gave us another extra plate of the chicken kabob for the inconvenience and delay. Now that's what I call customer service and other places should learn and take notes. The food is beyond phenomenal and always exceeds my expectations. I usually order the chicken kabob plate with their hummus which is out of this world and their shirazi salad. 20/10! Thank you and best of luck! read more

Good customer service but plates are very expensive, I think $44 four rice, lettuce, some beef is too much

Tasty food, great hookah. Nice place to go out with friends or on a date. Also my to go place with guest that are visiting me

Hello, very good and atmospheric establishment, inexpensive cuisine, unlimited tea, good hookah, and very tasty watermelon, I go to this establishment very often, and I can confidently recommend it to my friends read more

This is totally a Persian spot with hookah and Persian food. We used to frequent here all the time since my best friends Persian (DJ Reza )I've had many of smoky nights around here. All hookah hoses are disposable and come with their own separate mouthpieces. In theory it's bad for the environment but I guess good for coronavirus. Loud electronica music, hookah,Sports with amazing food ! read more

If there is any place to go to receive amazing fresh, Middle Eastern, food, great desserts, unlimited teas, you have coffee you have amazing service hookers, and that is open until 4 AM. This is the place to take your friends and family. The ambience is amazing at night time you got he lanterns he got the whole vibe outside and inside like I said the food is a must have great appetizers, fresh guacamole made. Don't miss out on the opportunity to really enjoy a great vibe and amazing food. read more

Perfect hookah, nice outdoor seating w heaters (unfortunately they kept needing gas refills) Moderately busy on a Monday night, Arabic music playing. Our food came out fast, returned the dolma because it tasted like it was straight out the can, house salad was lemony and salty the way I like it but the beef was bland. Chicken wings were too salty and texture was processed (like McDonald's wings with bones) but everything came with a generous proportion. I'd come back just for the hookah and some tea, maybe some house salad. read more

Came here for the first time w/a friend who is a late night regular and loved it! They have a fantastic food selection and very good Persian Tea. I love that this place serves food w/their hookahs and that they are open so late! They have a great hookah selection and the Clipper Notion w/ambrosia, red gummy, and pomegranate was a hands-down fav! It was $26 for the hookah, but they do a great job of refreshing your coals, so you can smoke for quite awhile. Our waiter was great and the staff took excellent care of us! read more
