First visit last night with the boo. Arrived around 7:30. We were immediately greeted and told that it was hookah happy hour and were given a number and headed upstairs. Found a nice nook by the window and settled in. It took about 10 minutes for our pipe to arrive.
The Good:
Great music...The Eagles, Bob Marley, Tosh, Sound Garden all mellow and not too loud
Decent Shisha...papaya mango and mint mix they have a higher end grade also
Atmosphere...it was clean, smelled good, younger crowd in the room we were in but they were cool. Bathroom was clean. I informed a server there was no soap in the ladies and they took care of it right away.
Service...Unlike many lounges I've visited, you are not charged extra for a fresh coal and they come around to tap the ash off for you! Servers were very pleasant and didn't bother you but were available if you needed anything.
Food...we just ordered some wings because we had not eaten all day and they were pretty good. Trust me, I'm from Western NY and I know wings!
Location...It's in the cut and out of the way of the "Uptown swank"
The Bad:
Crowd...We didn't go in the other rooms(I think there are 3) but would have liked an older crowd. Right before we left there was a group that came in that did not understand that a hookah lounge does not call for the same volume of speaking as a bar! A etiquette blurb on the menu may be helpful at any lounge.
Food...would have liked to see some creativity on the menu but that may cause the prices to skyrocket so never mind.
Overall:
I enjoyed it and will be back. The happy hour is daily from 5-8 $10 hookah. I'd like to try some cocktails on my next visit; maybe the "Liquid Marijuana." It goes with the vibe;)
