The first time I went here was in early July 2015 with my friend. We really enjoyed it and thought it was perhaps the best place on Staten Island that we had been to. Great volume of music and service. The seating is fantastic and the hummus was really nice and fresh.
Since then, I have been back twice in the last month or so and each time the place has been closed! Both times were around midnight on a Saturday (during the hours they say they are open). I was disappointed to find it closed on a weekend. Is this place even open still? May give it one more try earlier in the night to see but I have low hopes.

Came back here a second time a few months ago. Not as good of a experience as the first time. We ordered Code 69 flavor which was much too strong and harsh, it constantly made us cough. It wasn’t enjoyable. Not to mention the person working there promised us he would change our coals in 5 minutes, but he didn’t come until like 25 minutes later when we were ready to leave. Not great service or hookah the second time around. I’ll chalk it up to a bad night. Would try again.

A true hookah lounge with exceptional service and a forum for international debate and friendly atmosphere. Very relaxing seats and welcoming vibe, I don’t want to leave and I will surely be back. In the hours I was there I met an Indian, a pakistani, an uzbeki, a jew, a palestinian, a surinamese, and I am a Persian cowboy from California so don’t bother going to a bar when there is no culture and dialog when you can come here and make world peace and laugh over hot tea and hookah!

This is my usual hookah spot on Staten Island. Pretty décor and calming atmosphere. Each time that I go, I try a new hookah flavor and I am never disappointed. Food wise, I’ve tried hummus with pita bread and baklava. Drink wise, I’ve tried coffee and Sahlab (a Middle Eastern hot drink). It was all great! Reasonable prices and the owner himself checks up on you as well, along with the other staff members. Super friendly and attentive staff!
If you’re looking for a comfortable, uncrowded spot to just unwind and smoke hookah, check it out!

Great hookah. Great staff, very nice soothing Arabic music feels like your smoking hookah in the Middle East lol ! By far the best hookah bar on the island and I forgot to mention THE PRICE HOLY CRAP i was shocked. If you interested in hookah, playing cards or want a nice café drink this is the spot to go !!!

You get greeted instantaneously at the door, the staff is so friendly and attentive. A bunch of us ordered smoothies and pineapple juice, which came out in very big serving sizes. I couldn’t tell you what hookah we ordered but whatever it was, it was strong, pulled nicely and it tasted very good! The owner actually recommended us flavors to try so we followed suit. The owner and I assume his son asked us constantly how everything was, if we needed anything, and just super friendly– I can’t say it enough! We stayed Long and had a great time! Things to know/​no alcohol, I don’t know if it’s byob or not, they have like an appetizer menu that looks tasty, but their drinks are a wide variety and taste fresh and delicious. Try it, I’ll recommend to everyone ! Very very very happy customer

Entrance: Walking in, you are welcomed right away and seated. If it isn’t busy they don’t force you to sit where they want you to, and you can choose your own seating. Which is very comfortable I must say.
Atomsphere: They have big sofas and comfortable chairs as well as ottomans to put your feet up. They play a variety of good music and keep it at a decent volume so you can hold conversations with the people you are with.
The hookah: pulls well and the coal comes around often. If you need something they are very attentive to your needs.
Food: I’ve had a caprese panini and the Greek salad, both of which exceeded my expectations for hookah bar food. I asked for a drink they didn’t have on the menu which consists of mixing lemonade and Nana leaves together to for limonana which he did for me with no questions or hesitations.
In closing: The prices are reasonable and I will be back time and time again.

I wish I could give this no stars. I’ve been smoking hookah for years and it’s never been this bad. My hookah didn’t pull (which happens) but when I asked the server if he could fix it or change it he told me that it’s fine. There is no designated person who comes around and changes coal so when my friend asked for a coal change, half an hour later nothing happens. Finally the bill comes and they had the balls to charge us a service charge. I never understood places that include tip but they didn’t deserve it to begin with. In the end the owner was apologetic about the situation but his excuse was «it was busy» which isn’t a good enough excuse because shouldn’t you want your place to be busy? Owner gave us some 15% off coupons but rest assured we will not return.

This place is amazing. The service is the best I have seen in New York. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. The food is AWESOME definitely try the hummus. The tabbouleh is great too. Hookah was prepared perfectly (not harsh very smooth) and they make sure you are taken care of!

Love this place! The music isn’t too loud that you can’t converse, lighting is perfect, and seating is ample. The hookah is great but it takes a little bit of time to get new coal. The owner is super nice. He gave us free dessert twice and always stopped by to see if everything was ok.
