I visited Myste for a private event, and while the space itself is very aesthetically pleasing, the…read moreoverall experience was disappointing, mainly due to the food and service. The lounge is on the smaller side, which actually worked well for the event and gave it an intimate vibe. The owner was also very nice and welcoming, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, that's where the positives ended. The menu is extremely limited, and you pretty much have to piece together a meal from a few items. I ordered the jollof rice and six-piece chicken wings. The wings were overpriced, overcooked, and had no flavor at all. The only options were sauces on the side (honey, ranch, or blue cheese), and when I specifically asked for honey drizzled on top with blue cheese on the side, that request wasn't followed. Even more frustrating, our server never came back to check on us or make sure everything was okay. The jollof rice was honestly the worst part. Instead of that rich, smoky flavor you'd expect, it tasted burnt with a harsh charcoal aftertaste. I've had jollof rice many times before, and this was nowhere close. I ended up sending it back. Because I was hungry, I forced myself to eat the wings, even though they were dry and lacked flavor. Overall, Myste Lounge has a nice look and potential, but the food and service really need improvement. A revamped menu and better attention to guests would make a huge difference.

Went to Myste Lounge with my boo thang on a Thursday night, and Thursdays are R&B night so it was…read moredimly lit, the playlist was smooth, and the vibes were definitely vibey . Service was great considering the place is small, it's hard to miss customers. It's a small hookah lounge in downtown Laurel, so don't expect a ton of space, but it's still a nice little spot to unwind after a long day or make a chill after-dinner stop. Hookah was smooth and the atmosphere was laid back. They do sell food, but we didn't try it this time. My only downside is the drink menu, it's mostly wine and champagne but overall it's a place I could see myself frequenting.

I went Sunday night to spend some time with friends who were in town for an event. I was certain that it was going to be packed in there, but it wasn't! I was able to grab a drink and get something that my nearby friend always takes pics of and makes me jealous: the fried wings... AKA the crack wings. They are still delicious! And they came out quickly. It doesn't look like they do karaoke anymore, but I'm glad to see they still do free pool on Wednesdays. I have heard from others how packed and slow it can get at peak times, but I am happy this wasn't that occasion. Hope they continue to do well. Also, I remember the building being white outside. It's blue now!

I stopped here on a Saturday night for the first time and the place was overcrowded and extremely…read morehot. The smell of old chicken grease filled the entire parking lot. This place had to be over the capacity as there was no moving space inside. The door was being held wide opened by a rock, I guess it was to give ventilation, which didn't help much at all. The bartenders are very very rude here (one in particular)they ignored customers, even refused to look up when a customer tries to get their attention. I've never seen bartenders be so rude. Also, there were only 2 bartenders working and AT LEAST 100 people present. The music was super loud and the sour smell at the bar was unbearable!!! I could not stay here long due to the heat and smell. This place has no security whatsoever, which seems a bit strange for the amount of people that were present. This spot is out of control.I seen people walking out of the door with drinks, even saw someone hit a car in the parking lot and pull off, this was my first and last visit.

I was told it would take 45 minutes to prepare the salmon, so I waited. After 45 minutes, I asked for an update and was told it would be another 15 minutes. After waiting those additional 15 minutes, I checked again and was told another 10 minutes. When I asked once more after waiting the extra 10 minutes, I was told they were still waiting on the spinach. After waiting well over an hour with no food and no clear communication, I asked for my order to be canceled. This level of service is unacceptable, especially since this is the third time I've experienced this issue. I enjoy the atmosphere, but consistently leaving without my meal due to excessive delays is frustrating and disappointing. I hope management addresses these ongoing service problems so other customers don't have the same experience.

It's a Caribbean spot with a full brunch menu, so yes, the food takes a little time... but that's part of the experience, not a flaw. Given the size of our party, the service held its own. It was steady, attentive, and friendly without feeling rushed--which honestly matched the vibe perfectly. If you come in expecting lightning-fast turnaround, you're in the wrong mindset. Come to enjoy your time. Now let's talk food. I ordered the steak, and it did not disappoint--well-seasoned, flavorful, and cooked just right. But the real surprise? That biscuit and butter. Listen... I could've made a whole meal out of that alone. And the mimosas? Nice and light--exactly how our group likes them. I didn't get the oxtail and grits, but I didn't need to. One look across the table told me everything I needed to know--full-on bowl-to-the-chin action. If you know, you know. It wasn't overly crowded for a Sunday, but the weather had randomly dipped back into winter mode after teasing us with 80 degrees, so I'll give them that. Overall, great experience. Good food, solid service, and a vibe that encourages you to sit, sip, and stay awhile. Exactly what brunch should be.

Not strong but just what I needed to take that drive back home. We both ordered the Po boy shrimp sliders. It came with fries. Also ordered the shrimp egg rolls. I hear they have performers here at times. Also would love to check out the drag brunch. Happy hour menu is very reasonable. Would love to return for the entertainment. Just keep in mind the restaurant is small. I could see it getting really crowded on a busy day. I still would return though. I enjoyed my visit.

A TIME WAS HAD!…read more Love, love, LOVE Skyvibe. My girls and I wanted to check out a new happy hour spot, and we decided on Skyvibe. The first floor was a little small, but cute with a black interior, photo op area, clean bathrooms, and an upstairs we didn't get to check out. We mixed between the main menu and the $5 after 5 list and got the meat pie, chicken skewers, spring rolls, beef bites and yam with fish stew dip. Every single dish was fantastic either crispy or tender respectively, savory, and seasoned to perfection! Highly recommend the chicken skewers and carrot cake (carrot cake not pictured as it was devoured on the spot). The only con of the night was waiting a long time for our food, but the servers themselves were amazing (shoutout to KB, our awesome waiter and mixologist), the food was worth the wait, and they definitely kept us entertained in the interim with karaoke night on a Tuesday. Melissa and the Dj warmed up the crown with banger after banger, and before long everyone joined in. It was an absolute blast to be a part of and we will definitely return!

The ticket included bottomless lemon drops during the painting session, which made the experience even more fun and interactive. The atmosphere was upbeat, the music kept the energy going, and everyone was having a great time. Even though food is purchased separately, don't skip it because it was honestly one of the highlights of my visit. My favorites were the beef meat pies, salmon bites, lamb chops, and the fufu with egusi. Everything came out fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned. I also appreciated that SkyVibe offers more than just Sip & Paint. They have karaoke nights, happy hour specials, and other events throughout the week, making it a place you can come back to for different experiences. If you're looking for good food, great vibes, and something fun to do in the DMV, I'd definitely recommend giving SkyVibe a try. I'll definitely be back!
