| - Awesome, Awesome, place to relax with some good friends. And probably the best Hookah I've had in Tempe as well. I had never done Hookah too much and it had been awhile since I had gone but my girlfriend and a friend of mine wanted to go again one Tuesday night so the first spot we went too (which was the closest to us) was Cafe Istanbul on Apache. When we entered we weren't even greeted by the worker, just ushered to a very uncomfortable spot near the door. All three of us were getting really bad vibes once we sat down, the place just did not feel like a Hookah bar...so we left and then went to Red Sea, thankfully.
As soon as we entered the Red Sea there were two really cool dudes that greeted us and made us feel welcome. Like I said, we were sorta new to Hookah and they gave us some awesome suggestion and talked to us for about 5mins. These guys really know (and love) their Hookah. We picked the Raspberry Lemonade, which was wonderful and smooth and fairly inexpensive as well, only about 5$ total for each of us (including my military discount).
*The Best thing about this place is the atmosphere in the lounge, its very dark with calming red lights throughout. They have huge couches and a pillow spot on the floor which was our favorite. What's pretty cool and unique and actually really adds to the chilllll atmosphere is the Classic Rock they play, It seriously completed my night when "Mary Jane's Last Dance" by Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers played. Seriously, Hookah Bars don't get any better than this place.
