    They bring food in this tray

    Small but tasty menu.. tzatziki dip was just perfect. Friendly nice staff .. the outside seating is very cool.

    the interior of the restaurant

    Best place to relax great customer service, amazing hookah, yummy food 100% recommend

    a hookah bar with a hookah on the table

    Out of all the hookah lounges in SD, A1 is hands down the best lounge for great hookah. The hookahs are imported and will last you longer than you plan to stay. The atmosphere is great and they have a great selection of beer, tea, coffee and other drinks. The food they offer is delicious as well. The owner Marvin along with the staff are as friendly and attentive as they come. Truly an "A1" experience

    This place is a great place to come and smoke the atmosphere is chill great music while your smoke and talk with friends and family I prefer this one over the one in Chula Vista hookah the hookah here at A1 is super smooth compare to other lounges also they have a loyalty program if you buy 10 hookahs and punch your number in you get a free hookah after the 10th one

    Tried something new today and stopped by here to pick up a bowl. They're not lying when they say the bowls are good! They know how to pack a good orange head here. I'll be coming back!

    A1 Hookah Bar is my all time favorite. Great hookahs that last forever fruit bowls are amazing. Every time I have a party at the house or when go to the beach I get a to go bowl grapefruit or pineapple. They have really good customer service and they make you feel at home. Big selection of beers and a pool table . Music is on point always bumping the good jams. My go to place for at least 4 time a week. You should come try it

    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.
