    This space get worst and worst. People hanging out, perfume guy, flower man ...It is more of a much younger club vibe, including a recent fight. I really enjoyed it when mature people came out, much more engaging and enjoyable.

    I've been coming to Aromas for a few years. It has changed over time. The club part has grown in popularity for certain. The selection of cigars has grown as well. What I love is if there is a certain type/brand that you are looking for, they will try to get it. The atmosphere is pleasant. I enjoy sitting on the breezeway outside cause I don't like how heavily crowded it can get inside and the strong wafting of cigar smoke in the air. The wait staff comes outside to take your order. I love their chicken wings and fries. Especially their fries. Eating fries and people watching on a Saturday evening is a relaxing way to pass time. I will definitely return again and again.

    Aromas has become one of my favorite places to go and unwind.. and then turn back up! I love the staff, the security always looked out for me and I LOVE the fact that they have options! There's the smoke side which is more of a lunge area, the ice bar side which is the club and the patio which is a mix of both basically. Oh, and there's a DJ in every area so you get three different vibes on most nights! Ladies are free before a certain time on a few days of the week (just call to check and see when) and the fellas always have to pay. 21+ for ladies and 25+ for the fellas and we all know age restrictions are important! There's always a little dress code for the men like no white beaters, ball caps and a couple other things.

    This is a nice cigar bar that has a lot going for it, however, a few things persist that could have enhanced the experience further. I will get the negative out of the way first. The biggest one is their beautiful patio, which they also use to store things like cones and other necessities. They built a wonderful patio, they should not use it as a shed. At least put the things out of sight. I thought the music was a bit loud, but everyone seemed to enjoy it, so that was just me. They had a decent selection of cigars in their humidor and the staff were great. Our server was attentive and checked on us often. The crowd was also very friendly and made us feel welcome. The night we were there they were offering a steak dinner for $27.00. Honestly, I was surprised that a cigar bar could offer food. We did not eat there, but several people did around us, so it is a popular weekly offer (I think they might offer it every Wednesday, but you might want to confirm). They also have a full liquor bar. All in all, a positive experience and a nice smoke.

    The atmosphere here is great. Nothing but positive vibes. Great ventilation, so it is not Smokey at all. Staff here are super helpful, and friendly. Great music. Full bar with great mixed drinks.

    We stopped here prior to dinner. My husband got a cigar and we each got a drink. The bill was $41. It was a little pricey for us. We enjoyed sitting and talking, but couldn't afford to make it a regular event. The staff was very friendly

    Take out steak dinner
    Tyrica Y.

    I was pleasantly surprised with the take out steak dinner. My husband frequent Aromas for the cigars and drinks and always bragged about the steak dinner. I was a little skeptical because Aroma is a cigar bar. But babbbby, the steak was so delicious. It was seasoned to perfection and cooked on point (requested medium). The portion size is gigantic and can feed 2 people comfortably. The sides (red mashed potatoes and string beans) were fresh and also delicious. Please note the steak dinners are only available on Wednesdays, so mark your calendar. Highly recommend the steak dinner and although it was take out it was still great!

Ambiance, food, drinks, service, the vibes, and immaculate service. Whether you're with a massive group or in an intimate setting, this place has the proper seating for your party or date. As a first timer, I was impressed with the space. Nightlife can be tricky and some spaces just don't have the proper size for your desired night out. There's a bar for mingling but if you're there for dinner , there's that too. If you want more room and tend to have more volume in the conversations you carry, the outdoor space is ideal (especially since my friends and I like to laugh and goof off). That being said , we found ourselves seated in the patio and we loved it. Very comfortable, especially as the weather was cool that evening. Food was surprisingly delicious. Knowing that the restaurant appeal was competing with the nightlife vibe I was getting, I didn't expect there to be quality Mediterranean food. However, I was pleased with the calamari, salmon bites, hummus and brussel sprouts. My friend got steak and enjoyed his food as well. Drinks were great! One stood out the most which was the Smoke Show. Absolute perfection. Kinda snuck up on me though so be careful! Dress code. For men. Don't bring a hat. Don't even hold it in your hand. They're pretty strict about it. No flip flops. Put the Crocs away. No jerseys. My husband had jeans and Tshirt on but I saw others a bit more dressy casual. For the ladies. I felt like I all the females dressed to impress. From dressy casual to club attire , loose and flowy dresses, cute top and jeans with heels, cute romper, etc. I loved the diversity here. Will definitely be back! This seems like a great place to be for a fun night out. Make a reservation as I heard they get pretty busy!

If…read moreservice on drinks and food and been faster I'd have given two more stars, but the place was very calm and we still waited a while to drink and eat. Had to assume there was a private party secluded somewhere eating up literally everyone's time. Drinks average $15 each, very short menu of food, appetizers, and desserts, but what they cook, they cook Well! Delicious! However, we arrived around 6pm without reservations on a night when literally every table had a Reserved sign on it, and 90% of the tables were empty and remained so while we were there for an hour. 1-2 bartenders, and a virtually empty main restaurant, and our first drinks after being seated took over 10 minutes. Shocking and disappointing. The food took about 20 minutes to come out but was worth the wait, very good food. They offer hookahs also but at a premium price, much more than Casbah and other competitors. They have private dining and private rooms with chandeliers and I saw one with a billiard table. Catering to elitist clientele with money to spend and all the time in the world, I guess. I would have loved to enjoy a no rush hookah on their very loved outdoor patio, but I also hate waiting for drinks outside when they're already high priced. If you do come for a drink, I highly recommend the Love Potion! Our server was polite and professional, she promptly greeted us and checked on us occasionally.

We were immediately impressed when we went in; lots of dark wood and a long bar with shelves and shelves of spirits. There were mostly bourbons and whiskeys. They even had a rolling ladder so bartenders could reach top-shelf bottles. We had about a 10 minute wait for a table on a Saturday for lunch. The time went by quickly and we were seated at a small wooden table. Our server, Erin, approached us quickly and took our drink orders. I ordered a Blue Moon and my husband had the WC Old-Fashioned. It was made with Evan Williams 1783 Bourbon and he said it was quite good. ($13). For food; I had the Rooster Royale which was a fried chicken sandwich with pickles and hot honey BBQ sauce. It was $16.50, and one of the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had! Even the bun was delicious! I'd planned on only eating half; but I ended up eating it all because it was so good. I also had the homemade chips which were yummy too. My husband had the Reuben which was $19. He said it was really tasty and full of meat. He commented that it didn't get "mushy" or fall apart. He had the crispy potatoes as his side and he raved about those too. We really enjoyed our meal at Whiskey Cake and would definitely return.

The menu, though short with options did have a creative variety. We all tried the cinnamon roll, which I have to say was beyond, and I do mean beyond outstanding. In fact, it was the best cinnamon roll I have ever had with the toasted pecans and the sauce. WOW!! I ended up with the pancakes and eggs, and the eggs were cooked perfectly! The pancakes were were thick and had good flavor. It was a little overcooked for what I prefer, but overall, it was very good. Looking at the other options of what friends were having the food looked amazing. I am not a bacon eater, but one of our table mates had a bacon dish that she said was phenomenal.

But if a good night's rest is your priority, you may want to look elsewhere. The AC unit is loud and occasionally puts out an unpleasant smell, which was a nuisance throughout the stay. The walls are paper thin. Conversations from neighboring rooms came through clearly, and the hallway doors slam constantly with no relief. We managed to doze off between 11:30pm and 4am before being jolted awake by slamming doors and a neighboring couple having a full-blown argument in the hallway. Not exactly the relaxing night we had in mind. A few other small gripes: no blackout curtains, though the shades do a reasonable job, light creeps in from the sides. There is also no ice machine on the floors, though they do provide pre-bagged ice at the front desk downstairs. On the brighter side, breakfast was a nice touch if it is included in your rate. It is not a buffet but a made-to-order setup with a choice of omelet, burrito, or sandwich. We went with a fully loaded veggie option and it came generously stuffed. Nothing extraordinary taste-wise, but a solid and filling start to the day. The gym was a good size, though the free weight selection skews heavy, so if you prefer lighter weights you may find yourself out of luck. Clean, functional, and fairly priced for what it is, but bring earplugs.
