Limited flavor list that was verbally mentioned. Pending the bartendar, 1 friend got a drink ($15) in a nice glass, the other got a drink same price in a flimsy plastic cup. The service was pretty slow also Friend also noticed, many of the bottles behind the bar were empty and just on display (like college kids using empty bottles for decoration) Maybe by 945 we were told a private party was being held there and we would need to leave. Would have been nice to tell us that when we got there. A friend had just ordered Hookah maybe 25 mins before 10. Not sure if they had food. The hookah pull was very strong and not one I would like to return to. Street parking

They've got all the neon signs and photo lighting you could imagine and most nights there's a DJ spinning mostly early 2000's and current hip-hop and r&b music with some afrobeats mixed in. In most of my experiences they are generally well staffed to handle the larger weekend crowds and from management to the servers the staff is typically very pleasant and timely in regard to service. This is probably one of the few spots that opens until 3-4am, if you're looking for something on a late night. They also host a variety of discounted events on a given day whether it be extended happy hours from 4-10pm, free hookah Monday's, or various specials for football game nights. I definitely recommend giving them a try if you're looking for something in-between lounge and club vibes with good hookah and high energy.

Nomad offers no food just liquor and hookah. They also have cigars for sale but you're allowed to bring your own cigars. I had a Mango mint hookah which was considered to be one of their regular flavor options. The hookah was very flavorful and after about an hour - they changed the coals. The menu says that there's a 2 hour limit on the hookah. However my friend kept ordering drinks and therefore they didn't enforce that rule. You are allowed to bring food in and eat it as long as you're drinking. There are TVs inside and outside and there's music playing as well. The servers are attentive and friendly and I would come back.

They offer a nicely priced happy hour, if I remember correctly. They don't serve food. The drinks are pretty standard. I've never been wowed with my service here, but I've never been disappointed either. Nomad is pretty much a local neighborhood hookah spot that is just good enough. Would I go back? Sure I've been plenty of times! But don't expect fancy or glamour.

I ordered the steak & cheese egg rolls and they were very good! NOW- you might ask .. so why is your rating a 2? I was lowkey always a bit paranoid being at Allure because it's so dark & small little holes in the floor/seating ends. A big a* roach ran by my foot from the couches & it was as big as a water bug but it didn't fly. Then !!!!! My sister and friends went like two weeks after. They was the first ones there for HH guess what ran out? A RAT - a big a* one too. They also said the vibe was a bit different. Too much smoke (cigarettes, weed, hookah) all in one. I really hate that a rat ran by them inside because I would've went back. Now I just can't. To know that I had some of the food there makes me nauseous. If you are not scared of them, go for the drinks. That's all.

I will say though that the service was good. They don't serve food but you can bring it in and there's plenty along the street. After about 10 pm on a Saturday night they play the music LOUD and it's a lot of the trap/thotcore stuff i.e. Megan thee Stallion, Cardi B, Nikki Minaj, City Girls, Drake, DaBaby, that kinda stuff.

I am writing to formally report an incident that occurred at Rose Bar on Saturday, November 1st,…read morearound 11:48 PM on the second-floor bar (where DJ Ratchet was performing). There were two bartenders working at that time. The bartender in question was not the Asian woman, but rather a woman who appeared to be mixed with Black and White. Her behavior toward me and my husband was extremely unprofessional, inappropriate, and disrespectful. From the moment I approached the bar, she was unfriendly, dismissive, and gave me dirty looks. She then made a highly inappropriate comment toward my husband, stating that she was "out of strawberry Hennessy but sweet enough for him," and later propositioned him for sex in exchange for money. I ordered two drinks -- a Jolly Rancher and a Long Island. My drink had no alcohol in it, despite costing nearly $50 for both drinks. When my husband returned the drink to the bar and mentioned that it lacked alcohol, the bartender laughed and called me a "bitch." This experience left me deeply uncomfortable and disrespected, especially as a married woman. It is unacceptable for staff to engage in such inappropriate and sexually suggestive behavior toward customers. The bartender's actions made me feel unsafe and completely unwelcome, and I will not return to Rose Bar as a result. I am requesting that this matter be investigated immediately and that appropriate action be taken against the bartender involved. I also recommend that management review its employee conduct policies and sexual harassment training to ensure all patrons are treated with dignity and respect. Thank you for your attention to this serious matter. I am available to provide additional details if needed. Date of Incident: Saturday, November 1st Time: Approximately 11:48 PM Location: Second-Floor Bar (where DJ Ratchet was performing)

The drinks took about 25 minutes to arrive. We were not checked on for another 40 minutes and had to wave down the waitress who was sitting with her back to us while charging/playing on her cell phone. She seemed amused when we complained about the wait. The food had not yet come out and it had been over an hour since we ordered. We were the first people there (about 30 minutes after they opened) so it was empty; therefore no reason for the spotty service. They finally brought out our food 10 minutes after we asked for our checks to leave (the third time we had to flag her down). Pros: drinks, hookah Cons: service time, parking, the smell of vomit on the floors, wait staff I'd come solely for hookah in the future. Do better, please!
