They are very respectful and always make sure their customers are respectful to one another. If you go regularly here you naturally become part of the community, everyone who's a regular is super welcoming and friendly. The hookah is amazing! And the vibe is unmatched! The atmosphere is perfect to just unwind. Whether you want to study, work from your laptop, hang with friends or hang alone, this is my favorite place to be.

Came here one night with my brother and the lounge definitely felt like home!…read more This lounge is an arab owned/managed location - it is jointed with another restaurant that also seemed to be owned by them, so you could order food/drinks in this area. It took about 5 minutes to get seated but as soon as we sat someone quickly came to our table and took care of us. We ordered a standard double Apple hookah and tea - it came out within 5 minutes so that was great. Hookah was strong and quite good! For a Wednesday night they were quite busy, the spot provides free cards to play with and they play music (that's not too loud). Mostly you will hear the conversations everyone is having. Decor was very nice and it was comfortable. Workers don't wear any work outfits/attire so you will need to keep an eye out who looks like he works there! Would definitely come back here, loved the arab vibe and comfort there.

Literally the worst hookah I have ever tried in my life - that is not an exaggeration. Unbelievable…read morethat they still have to ask if you want quick light or coco nara. Who still uses quick light charcoals in this day and age!?!? Hookah they brought out was a mini starbuzz hookah that was the cheapest POS I have seem a lounge serve. If you enjoy a nice quality smooth hookah experience, this is definitely NOT the place. Atmosphere is mostly regulars and friends of owners. Seems more like a private social club. The lounge was 100% older male patrons. I requested (specifically fumari brand) lemon mint and what they brought me was definitely another cheap brand that I wouldn't even serve my worst enemy. We stayed 5 min and left and would recommend nobody come here for hookah. Trust me when I tell you all these 5 star reviews are fake and must be friends of owners. Just my 2 cents.

More people do seem to come in later in the night and its an eclectic crowd. My girlfriends told me they come here a lot to study and to do their work, so its a super chill spot where you happen to be able to smoke hookah. Their bowls are really long lasting, and the coals are changed out right on time. They do serve a couple of snacks and a couple cold beverages as well, but if you're really hungry, I've heard the Mediterranean spot next door is good and the bakery on the other side also has delicious desserts that you can bring in as well. Will definitely become a repeat spot when I want to just have a chill night with girlfriends and chit chat.

Be…read moremindful because it can be ghetto so if you are looking for something bougie, this is not the place. There's often fights inside or near Myst. Giving it 3 stars because the bathrooms are DISGUSTING. There's only 2 unisex bathrooms and they are often clogged up. If it isn't clogged up, there's no toilet paper or it's just trashed. Sometimes the door lock is broken too and won't lock properly. They have been doing some renovations to their furniture but not the bathroom. It's so gross. The specialty drinks are really good. Especially when the bartender Chase is there. My favorite is the Pink Lagoon. It'll sneak up on you because it is made with tequila. It's like an alcoholic pink drink with the coconut cream, guava and pineapple. Pricy with drinks averaging $15-20 and they have an automatic 18% surcharge on weekends (that is not tip). Food is great. Some of the best wings downtown. The lamb chops are really good too. I wouldn't get the wagyu sliders. It wasn't good. It tasted like an average slider advertised to be fancier since it's "Wagyu". I've had better sliders elsewhere for much cheaper. Save your $30. Parking here is horrible because it's in the heart of gaslamp. Horton plaza parking is probably your best bet if you can't find street parking.

Amazing hookah lounge!…read more Came here to relax and was seriously impressed. The atmosphere is cozy and stylish, perfect for hanging out with friends or unwinding after a long day. The staff were super friendly, knowledgeable, and helped us pick the perfect flavor mix -- it was smooth, flavorful, and lasted a long time without getting harsh. Drinks were great, music was on point, and everything felt clean and well-organized. You can tell they really care about quality and customer experience here. Definitely one of the best hookah spots I've been to -- will 100% come back and recommend to friends!

Great Caesar's ghost, Tabac Hookah Lounge is a revelation…read more I entered Tabac seeking a place to relax... and I emerged in a state of bliss normally reserved for people floating on clouds or winning Emmys. The hookah flavors were smooth, rich, and dangerously delicious--the kind of clouds that make you pause, nod approvingly, and say, "Yes. This was the correct life choice." Each pull was flavorful perfection, balanced and aromatic like a well-delivered evening news sign-off. And then--the gyro. Oh my. Thinly sliced, juicy, expertly seasoned, wrapped with the confidence of a dish that knows exactly who it is. One bite and I knew: this gyro did not come to play games. It came to dominate. Tabac somehow manages to be both laid-back and impressive, the rare lounge where you can unwind and eat like royalty. I reclined, I exhaled, I contemplated ordering another gyro simply to see if joy had a limit. Tabac, you've won my heart, my taste buds, and a solid chunk of my evening. Stay smoky, my friends.
