    Chicken wings with fries
    India F.

    This place was a hit! All the bartenders were so nice and friendly. Most staff wore a mask. The inside was spacious and wasn't too crowded on NYE but has a nice size crowd. DJ was lit & the MC made me feel special for celebrating my birthday! They brought out a cake for me which made my night! Now the wings...the food was literally amazing!! I didn't expect too much but it was bomb! If you're looking for a spot that has good music, hookah, food and space this is it. I wish our bartender was a lil more heavy handed lol the drinks deff could've been better

    This is by far the best (chill) hookah lounge I've been to in Houston thus far. It's in a perfect location (Washington) and right by a lot of bars and restaurants. The interior was really cute and I loved the layout! You can tell they actually put in effort to decorate and they stuck to the same theme throughout the lounge. This would be a great place to take your date and great place to chill w/ friends. I absolutely LOVED the music! They played hip-hop/rap and their speaker system wasn't too loud so you can still hear the ppl around you. I ordered the fries which was only $2! They were SO good!.. probably the best fries I've EVER eaten... and they were a good portion. I also ordered a hookah which starts off at $15. The hookah had a good flavor and lasted long. The service was the best I've had at any hookah lounge. It was nice that I didn't have to chase a server down to get my coals changed. This place is BYOB and it costs $5. My only issue is that they didn't have any toilet paper in the women's restroom and the toilets were a bit clogged because ppl were using paper towel instead of toilet tissue.

    This is by far the nicest hookah spot I've been to in Houston. Great bar selection, and the staff is extremely friendly, and gorgeous. The General Manager Ray even came by, introduced himself, and was extremely pleasant. I would come back mainly because his customer service was superb and most managers won't even speak to the patrons in an establishment unless there's an issue. We had NO issues at all. Thanks again for making sure we were comfortable and having a good time Ray. This a must come to spot in Houston!

    Me and my bestfriend drove in from Grand Prairie for her birthday and were desperate to find a cool hookah spot to chill at. Azuza did not disappoint. The music was bomb and they DO serve alcohol here. Drinks were about $9. The hookah was a bit heavy on the smoky side ( not in a good way) but after a while it smoothed out. Hookah was about $30 for the two of us. There is onsite parking for $10 and overall we just had an amazing time. Will definitely come back next time we are in Houston.

    Hookah...standard and fruit head

    So....Azuza hands down is thee best hookah spot is town and I have probably been to them all. The hookah is very flavorful, smooth and reasonably priced. $14.99 for a standard one and $24.99 for a fruit head. GREAT service! ***Kali, Kelsey, Angel, and Jordan*** are some of the nicest servers ever. Came here to watch the Rockets lose (whomp whomp) with some friends. Sat down and immediately was serviced. I will ALWAYS patronize places that appreciate their customers. Eric, the manager, came over to check on us. He is super cool! The vibe here is nice, good music, good food, good music. To say I'm impressed is an understatement. Keep up the GREAT job! I will be back!!!!

    Best service EVER!!! The ENTIRE staff is awesome. It took less than 5 mins to get a refill and we didn't have to run down someone to get coals. And that means a lot to someone like me who waits upwards of 35 mins just for a refill at other places. The smiling faces, the service and the prices will bring me back time and time again. I highly recommend this spot for everyone!

If you're an old head, then the DJ music may not be your speed, but the live music was good. there was a young lady singing with a guitar accompanying her. i'ma pretty hard grader but I would go back.. the wings were $12 for the special six wings and fries . it was pretty reasonably priced in my opinion.

Decent pricing for drinks and Decent hookah for the city at $25. If I come back I'll be sure to use the bathroom ahead of time to avoid the line and obnoxious knocks on the door and arrive early to avoid being seated in the walkway.

I had never even heard of a Martinez but I was open to trying it. He made it, looked at it, and said it didn't come out right. He asked if it would be okay for him to redo it which I of course obliged. I appreciated the fact that he didn't serve me a drink that wasn't properly made. The wait was worth it. The Martinez tasted like a sweeter Negroni and I really enjoyed it! I'm glad I was able to visit one of the oldest bars in Houston. It was super low key and chill which was a perfect way to end our evening.

Atmosphere is casual, service…read moreis friendly, the vibe is definitely Viking (and from what I have heard, it's really popping during brunch!). We came on. Friday after work during happy hour and the prices could not be beat, especially with their lobster bites (was sitting at about $30, and we got them half off!) Drinks were fantastic! I selected the "Golden Cadillac" that comes with a miniature bottle of Grand Marnier inside of it. Very good. My company decided on an array of appetizers for his "main course", while I went with their Fried Salmon (served with Mac and cheese, and collard greens). Omg! So tasty! The pepper was prevalent throughout, but it did not over power the flavor! I make collard greens at home (and learned from one of the best), and even I found theirs to be pretty good! My company selected fried ribs, along with the lobster bites, and crawfish queso dip, and their wings! I tasted what he got, and we both agreed that the wings were "off the chart" delicious with a beautiful straight off the grill smoky flavor! So good that he got another order to go! Lol. What made our experience there amazing was our server Ray (Rajean = think "the 90's TV Show "Living Single"..."smooches"!)...she was the best!! From her hello, to walking us through the menu (as first-timers), her recommendations, her energy, her smile, and her being very relatable. Loved her! My only gripe was the bathrooms, the ladies room needed attention (and could use a spruce all around). It doesn't help that it is a bit small, but yeah, they need to focus some efforts on ensuring it's upkeep. As for seating and parking, there is a bar area and limited seating toward the front of the restaurant, but it does extend to back of the house with additional seating. There is also patio seating as well. Because this place seems popular, it is best to reserve ahead to ensure your seating. Parking is very limited! They do however, offer valet (but at $20+). There is off-street parking, but be careful since this is a residential area and nothing is secure. All in all, I really had a great time and left with my belly full! Definitely worth checking out! What was lost is now found! Enjoy!

    Pros Ambience Hookah…read moreVariety Music Selection Cons Asthma Risk Patron Mixture Risk The Hookah lounge was comfortable however I'm not a big hookah smoker because it makes me dizzy after a while. This night I went with one of my close sorority sisters and ended up smoking hookah with her. This location was dark and very easy on the eyes. It showcased a heavy middle eastern influence since hookah is heavy there. The variety of options are given in a menu style and allow you to pick whatever fits your needs at the time. You are also able to freely smoke as long as you would like with the occasional waiter coming to replace the coals on your hookah. They also hire their DJs every night, so the music can change and control the mood depending on what is played. The do played a variety of music from hip hop to r&b and pop, there was no shortage on the tunes just know that they will change. The downside of this place is the smoke, if you're asthmatic or have trouble seeing this place might pose a couple of risk to you. You might have trouble breathing or being able to see the ground as you walk into the puff clouds of other patrons. There is also a mixture of patrons, some there to enjoy themselves and others to have parties and fun, if you're set on a flat consistent vibe then this may not be a place, there was someone on a couch enjoying their entire life while we were there, luckily we didn't care how they did anything it didn't interfere with us. Risk was also a major thing to be mindful of, the coals can be extremely hot and give damaging burns, people can also get sick from the hookah so be careful of the health risk and also use caution around the hookah to avoid coals! Overall a good place, if you're in Houston definitely stop by and have a good time.

I'm just not ok with a dj who is being paid by the owner, telling folks or allowing the MC to tell folks in order to request a song, you gotta pay. If I chose to tip him, so be it, but being forced ain't cool. My biggest complaint was the price of everything. Now I'm a country chick and realize that prices are more expensive in the city. I was approached by the manager and I told her I needed a set up. She asked me what chasers I wanted and I said water and coke. I was charged separately for the water and coke that was supposed to be included in my set up.... so all together for a set up and a hookah, I paid over $60. I've never paid, IN HOUSTON, more than $10 for a set up and $35 for a hookah. Then they have small 4 oz paper cups to get the ice out with. After all this she attempted to charge me a bottle fee for each bottle I brought in. I sincerely think the young lady wasn't sure about what she was doing. Again she maintained her professionalism but she looked overwhelmed. Let's move on to those hookahs, the flavor lasted maybe 10-15 minutes and then the other lady who was helping refresh the coals was firmly pressing them down on the foil. I called her to the side and advised her that she was going to burn the shisha like that and sure enough my next puff was nothing but burnt shisha. They did replace it for free so I can't say much about that but overall....... The employees need training, I think they were overwhelmed and I think y'all were understaffed to serve the amount of people that accompanied this party...
