I don't give out 5 starts for no reason btw. But this place definitely deserves it. The ambience was amazing really lively and colorful. Came on a Tuesday durning happy hour so the place wasn't packed. We was greeted by a nice young gentleman who wanted us to sit at the table, but we wanted to sit at the bar. I'm happy we sat at the bar for the simple fact we got to meet Chopper. No not from One Piece lol ( anime joke ) But Chopper was our bartender. She is a delightful and lovely person. we had a great conversation with her on top of that the drinks that she made was superb. The espresso martini with cognac was amazing. I really appreciate it that they use real espresso. It was happy hour and the hookah was $20 !! Yes it was busting so you can't beat $20 Hookah Happy hour drinks were eight dollars and there were amazing drinks. She makes them to perfection. They did not taste like happy hour drinks and trust me I got lit. The place itself is really cute for a group of people or for a solo date. Definitely will come back to try out the food. I wasn't hungry but got the french fries and the french fries were mad Good, it wasn't soggy was well seasoned. You didn't even need ketchup lol read more

Oh how I wish this would have been a 5 start experience for me. Even with good customer service and a nice decor this spot just did not do it for me. I went on a Saturday evening . Went in for drinks, hookah, and appetizers. The drinks ranged from mid to simply not good. The hookah was good but burned super quickly. Now the calamari appetizer was some of the best I have ever had, very fresh. It's a very mixed crowd and so is the music. But it is worth mentioning one more time customer service was very good. read more

The decor of this lounge is fire!! I love how they set up this entire lounge and the vibe when you walk in. Staff was very professional and attentive. I had order a mini hookah and 2 tequila sunrise drinks which was great. I didn't order no food because I had already ate. And just came to vibe out read more

I had a wonderful time visiting this restaurant/lounge. As soon as you enter the big red doors you are greeted with such a positive relaxing aroma. The dark and light soft pink throughout the entire restaurant is chilli. The ceiling look like clouds are above you. Different and unique. Th mojito was delicious and my Buffalo wings with ranch was so good. I had a wonderful time. The scenery was worth the experience. I had a time read more

I went alone on a solo date. The nachos were good and the portion was big, it doesn't come with queso just melted cheese as the cheese option. The ambiance was gorgeous, plenty of room. I came for the happy hour and enjoyed some wine and hookah as well. I went at opening so the service was immaculate and fast. The staff was kind and speedy. read more

Came here for the second time on a Friday and sat the bar. The decor is nice and the place is big with VIP sections and a dance floor. It's good for eating or having a drink or dancing. The bartender, whose name I forgot, was very attentive and polite. The Dj was good as well and played a mix of everything. Towards the end of the night, i ordered some food, which included the steak bites, truffel fries, and calamari. The steak bites were really good, the fries were good as well, and the calamari with the sweet and spicy sauce was really good. For drinks, I had the east 8 and the Cave lemonade; I really like the Cave lemonade. My babes and I had a good time drinking and dancing. I would recommend that sauce be added to the menu for the wings it was sooo good. I would def return sgian to try other food on the menu. read more

They had games and happy hour specials for HUGEEEE drinks for $7 til 9pm. The service was amazing the bartender was so kind. I def enjoyed myself. read more

We came here after dinner one night and the waiter was very nice, he didn't pressure us to order anything as we just ate and we just ordered some drinks and an app Since they gave us a nice table by the dance floor . It's a really pretty place with great music, the bouncers were very nice but should have assisted me when a car that was double parked blocking my car, I had to go ask the dj to make an announcement luckily the guy came out to move his car but I think the bouncers should be more aware of the parking situation. Other than that I would go back for sure . read more

It's a good vibe depending on what you're looking for. I'm always seated quickly - no wait. The food isn't bad it isn't the best but the drinks make up for it . The atmosphere is lively the crowd is young so be aware. To be specific if you're in your thirties you will be around people in their 20's. read more

Our waitress/ host "JO" AMAZING!!!! We got greeted at the door with such warmth!!! So kind and attentive!!!

But the best experience was honestly our waitress JO, when I asked for the check, she gave my wife a complimentary cheese cake and sing her happy birthday that was so nice I will love to come on a weekend to see the vibes Next time read more

After work, my coworkers and I decided to unwind at Cave. I arrived a bit earlier and thought I'd grab a bite before indulging in some drinks. I ordered the ribeye steak, which I requested medium-rare but got medium instead. Surprisingly, it was still juicy and delicious--no complaints there! I also had the calamari, which was very crispy and paired perfectly with the sauces. The servers were definitely attentive throughout the night, making sure we were well taken care of. As for the drinks, they weren't the strongest, but they still had a nice kick. The hookah here is also top-notch, definitely high quality. Overall, it was a great spot to relax after a long day, though a slightly better-cooked steak would have made it a five-star experience. read more

Was supposed to celebrate my birthday didn't get to. I called multiple times the number of DP kept changing. They never said anything about 21+ (I found them on Google doesn't say). We call to give them a DP (they charged the credit card) they called back 2 days later saying they can't take DP with credit cards they did refund us but then said it had to be cash or Zelle. We Zelle it but they were high risk so it never went through to them but we didn't know. We get there they turned us around because my brother was 20 and also didn't have a DP then when I asked for a manager the host lied and said he was a manager. 0/10 I would never try to go back. Very unprofessional and they don't know their own rules. read more

$20 hookah, $6 beers & wines, and $8 well dEveryday happy hour why not!!!! Have been wanting to go here for a while now. Glad I finally made it. Ambiance did not disappoint beautiful lounge.

We sat at the bar had a few appetizers , drinks, everything was good and yess they have hookah . Give them a try thank me later. Ps did not get a pic of the truffle fries or hot wings but they are good too. read more

Not a fan of Cave I was profiled and asked for my Id and Credit card to hold. When I asked why waitress had a lame excuse her coworker was looking at the wall..... She said we ask selectively so I ask what made you ask me? I am a Beautiful well dressed Black Woman!! Mother and all around humble person that had no problem paying my bill. Shame on Cave for this I would never ever return. The drinks are garbage and watered down might as well ask for water!!! I don't recommend this place. Well not if you're Black!! read more

Came here on Sunday to celebrate my friends birthday and experience was ok. Only reason why I'm giving 3 stars and not lower is because the food was pretty decent. Service though was pretty bad even when there was just 4 tables occupied including us. The staff was not very attentive and even when I called one of the waiters he just looked at me and walked away. Very bad manners I would say. I even asked for water and he automatically gave me a bottle of water that was $5. Then another waiter said I should specify how I want my water when in most places restaurants give tap water in a cup. Luckily I removed the water charge cause I decided to talk back to them. If I didn't they would have just kept that charge. Ambiance was empty as expected on a Sunday night , decor was nice too but honestly would not come back here again due to staff. read more

Cave Restaurant - Skirt Steak with roasted potatoes - Lounges Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Cave Lounge was a VIBE!!! If you didn't know.... Now you do! I love a restaurant with a good theme and Cave Lounge DID NOT MISS!! You literally feel like you're dining in a cave with the low lights and cave formations. The music was absolutely my vibe playing Hip Hop, Dancehall and Afrobeats and a live DJ came in later in the evening for their night set. The place is super roomy with plenty of space for the dance floor and sections, making it the perfect lounge to celebrate a birthday or special occasion. They also had a ton of TVs throughout, including a huge screen so that you don't miss any of your favorite sporting events Don't get it twisted, just because it's a bar/lounge does NOT mean they did not do their thing with the food. Literally EVERYTHING I tried was delicious. Super well seasoned and flavorful and everything was fresh I pretty much tasted a bit of everything but the Salmon... I had to eat the whole thing there, it was too good to take home lol Oh... and yes.. the hookah was bussin, you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much @cavelounge for having me. Everyone took great care of me and made me feel super special during my visit.

Cave is known for their everyday happy hour specials and great pricing . I went on a Tuesday for happy hour not realizing it was Valentine's Day. They continuously post about the everyday happy hour and never post that it excludes holidays, so i made reservations and everything was full price . I still end up staying , they gave my friend and I roses and complimentary champagne . The hookah was good , the music was good , the food was good and I couldn't wait to return for actual happy hour . A couple weeks later I returned and had a horrible experience . The music was horrible , the service was horrible . I had a reservation but the table wasn't ready so we were sat by the bar at around 8:45 . They moved us from the bar in 10 minutes and immediately took our orders . We smoked the entire hookah and had about 3 drinks each and our food still didn't come out . People who came after us had eaten and left and we were still there. After 2 hours of constantly bugging the waitresses for our food and them constantly saying it was on the way someone came and asked " what did we want to order again " at that point after 11pm we told the servers never mind we are going to leave . No one offered any apologies and we left hungry . Beware if going here because sometimes you'll get amazing service and sometimes the service will be horrible read more

I checked this place out this passed weekend with a client of mine. Lovely music upon entry. We ordered our food peacefully and shortly after a photographer approached to ask us for a photo. She was nice up until she decided to approach us while we were eating. The food was ok. Disrupting a customer's meal at your own discretion is rude. The photographer came to our table while eating to shove our framed pictures in our faces. She is talented but it definitely made me not want to revisit nor spread the word. read more

We were looking for a late night spot on a Monday with Hookah and this popped up on IG. We had fun. The hookah was great and so was the price. The tacos were flavorful and good portion. And the margaritas not so great. The vibes were chill and good music. The staff were very attentive and friendly. read more

Gimmicky at its finest. From the time I called to make a reservation, they kept buggin you that after 10 they only do bottle service. It was a large party of 8 so they shoving this down my throat on the phone. I was instantly turned off but decided to go around 7 knowing I am definitely not staying until 10 and be charged for bottle service. Upon first glance the decor is done well, but the food is bland and the service is poor. Alit of the waiter stand around chatting or smoking hookah. When they do get your order in the food takes forever to come out. There wasn't much tables full so I was left wondering what took so long. Our dinner service ended up being 2-3 hours long for just apps and drinks. There seemed to be more parties coming in closer to 10 pm, but for the service and bottle service prices, I will pass read more

Checked out cave on a busy Saturday night for drinks and a meal and I have very mixed feelings. The vibe 9/10 - great music and as close to a night out you can get while staying safe We ordered food but waited over an hour to get just the fries. At that point we were no longer hungry for the rest of the meal so we just canceled the orders. The staff seemed unorganized and overwhelmed and it was probably the busiest time of the week. They also automatically add a 20% tip to the bill when it was just the two of us at the table. I believe thats only allowed for large parties read more

Beautiful place. Staff is VERY RUDE. Went here for my cousins birthday and because we had such a large party they definitely took advantage and over charged us. Besi was literally the waiter/chef/ bartender and the hookah dude which prolonged our food that came out cold and bland. He kept bringing drinks over saying "on the house" but charged us. Got some of our orders wrong and said his favorite line "don't worry it's on the house". After confronting them the bill was incorrect they threatened us telling us we have camera footage and will get the police involved. Never again. We had a party of 11. read more

Came here for my sister's birthday. We were a party of six and I honestly didn't except to have such a wonderful experience. We were being taken care of by multiple people but Katie and Besi stood out the most. What wonderful service, so attentive and so patient. The food was even more incredible than the service. We got multiple appetizers for the table and each one was better than the next. We also ordered multiple entrees and I honeslty don't have a negative comment about any of it. We left full, and happy. Not only will I be returning especially when the restaurant is allowed to have indoor dining but I will recommend to everyone read more

OMG! This place is crazy dope & culturally educational. It is Albanian lounge & you will find garlic everywhere. I love it! The bartender, Yona is hospitable, nice, cute, cultured and just wonderful. I love it! The menu has a variety of great drinks. Inside we sat at the bar & trust there is more than enough plush seating for me, you & yours! Red & black seating in a semicircle with the bar on the left. Dopeness! The walls are adorned with paintings of the old civilization of sitting around fires & garbed in animal skins as well as textured to resemble a cave. Creative! Did I mention the hookah vibe?! Yurp. Hookah galore. We grabbed two. A mint & a strawberry. I'm a mint person & it was good. The tender kept the coals burning. Love it! We had steak tacos. Yum! Listen, I saw a lot couples up in there on hookah business. It's nice for a date or just friends spending time & hanging out. We drank, we ate we laughed & took shots. Opa! I am bringing my daughter next go round. She's gonna love it. Service, ambiance, food & drinks are on point! I will return! Nice!! You should go if you're ever in Gravesend. If you do not venture that way, you should! read more

I went here last week with a friend. I'm -1 star because they had a service fee which I didn't notice until later (only place I see them doing that is in Florida). Overall though I had a good time. The owner gave my friend and I drinks on the house and the bartender also gave us drinks on the house. I ordered steak nachos and the steak was really tender. It gets busier as it gets later. The inside is pretty cool it actually looks like a cave. Bartenders were all very nice. read more

Disgusting clientele! Had a patron hide my jacket that I left on my seat, at the bar. Because I wouldn't let him kiss me or touch me inappropriately after I asked hi.m several times to stop! Coincidentally it goes missing from the last place I saw him yet the bouncer wouldn't help me because I didn't SEE him take it even though this person assaulted me on their property so I had to wait till they could review the cameras and recover my property! This is absolutely disgusting! Never coming back again! read more

We came here one night because my friend who goes here regularly suggested we go for a girls night since she wanted to got dancing and smoke some hookah. We arrived around 10 pm which is early for a Saturday night dance scene. It was not crowded at this time, so we grabbed a few seats by the bar. We decided not to do a table since they usually charge by hour and you need to spend a minimum at the table. Since it was only three of us, it's not worth doing. We ordered some drinks and shared calamari since we were all not entirely hungry. The service varies depending which bartender you get. We felt the first one that served us was a little judgey, but the second girl was good. The calamari was pretty good. It was lightly battered and tasted fresh and was tender. We ordered hookah with a combination of flavors that had mint grape and melon. I did agree with my friend that the hookah did have a smoother finish than the one other time I had hookah. It was nice that we were all given separate plastic mouthpieces to use the hookah. When the coals got cold, they were nice enough to change them out when we asked. The music the weekend we went was pretty good. There was a mix of both old and new music. The interior does look like you are inside of a cave which is pretty cool. One downside is that a 20% gratuity is already added to the bill instead of the customer being able to tip what they want. I know most restaurants only do that depending on the size of your party, but I'm assuming they charge 20% for everyone. read more
