(Hookah lounges in Oakland did not look good online) They have easy parking in the back. We arrived, ordered at the counter. The vibe was great. Although it was full, music was at a good volume and I could still hear my fiend with no issues. We ordered a glass hookah. It was so smooth and the tobacco flavor was delicious. I highly recommend coming here.

But their recommendations and options have been more or less the same over the years. The location is well established and has always been a beautiful lounge for hanging out or using the computers. I believe it's a perfect spot for non coffee shop goers. But overall the reason I come back, is always due to the hookahs they provide being top notch. But I have always gotten a glass hookah. The last few times ive one they're either broken or got specs at the bottom of em. I still think i'll come back. But I'm definitely suspicious about my last 4 trips coming here. So this is what my review is going to be a placeholder for.

Haseen (the owner) greeted me right away, and let me tell you, he gives the best first‑time customer tours. He didn't just show me around he made me feel comfortable, explained everything clearly, and made sure I knew exactly what to expect. His energy is warm, friendly, and genuinely inviting. You can tell he cares about every guest who walks in. My hookah server, Ley was just as amazing. Her customer service was on point the entire night patient, kind, and super knowledgeable about flavors. She checked in often without being overbearing, and made sure my hookah was perfect from start to finish. The ambience is something special. It's relaxing, creative, and beautifully put together. The lighting, the décor, the music everything blends into a vibe that makes you want to stay for hours. What I loved most is how everyone treats each other like family. You don't feel like just another customer you feel like part of the lounge. It motivated me to want to be apart of the team! Yall hiring?

Rating: (4.5/5) Long…read moreoverdue review! We visited Falafel Etc. in Fremont mid-August on a Wednesday evening for a dine-in dinner. Since it was midweek, the place was quiet with mostly takeout orders coming through, so there were plenty of tables to choose from. Parking right in front was super easy. The Food: Falafel Sandwich: Truly impressive! Fresh, delicious, and very generous on portion size. Lamb Shawarma Wrap: The veggies and hummus inside were delicious, though the portion size was surprisingly smaller compared to the falafel sandwich. Side of Baba Ghanoush: Rich, filling, and paired perfectly with the warm pita bread. Service & Flow: Ordering is straightforward. You order and pay at the counter, and if you're dining in, they bring the food directly to your table. Overall, the food is great quality and well worth the price. I'll definitely be back, next time I want to try one of their plates, and I'm definitely getting the falafel again!

The last time she wasn't very nice, took our order as if she was forced to do it. Today was a whole other issue, she steps out to the lobby and takes her shoes off to do something with her feet. The other employee noticed this and even asked her what was wrong. I believe she added a band aid and proceeded to the kitchen without washing her hands. She immediately put gloves on and began preparing food. This is disgusting and we are upset someone would think this is acceptable. I don't think we'll be going here again especially if this person is still employed here. Not a good representation of the good food being made here.

Decided to come here because I've been wanting to come to a hookah bar for a while ever since I went to Miami!! My coworker said this was the place to go and man it was such a vibe walking in. My friends and I arrived a little before 9 and the bartender told us happy hour ends at 9 so what did we do? We ordered as many drinks as we could before it hit 9 o'clock lol. Also the hookah didn't start till 9 so we had time to kill lol. Then we found out there was food in the back to like can this place get any better?? I ordered myself fried chicken with fries while we waited for the hookah to be brought to us. It was $20 per plate which was not bad since they served a huge amount of food and it was cooked freshly. I love fresh cooked food that's the best! Outside in the back is where the food and where to pay for the hookah too, we decided to get watermelon flavor, great choice!! It only was $30 for the hookah which is not bad at all, good pricing if you ask me! The type of music they were playing was like 2000 music which I love, I grew up listening to that music it was such a vibe all night! It's took like 10-15 minutes to get our food and man that food was soooo good and fresh I loved it!! Right after we got our Hooka and it was soo flavorful but not too heavy so it was more like a light head rush. The man in charge of the Hookah would come around and make sure we had enough hookah and would switch out the old square cubes and replace them with new one for us! Overall I loved this place the bartender was great customer service, music was such a vibe, food was great, and to top it off the hookah was on point!!

Rating: (5/5) "Can't…read morego wrong with them" might sound like a bold statement, but Dish N Dash consistently delivers with fantastic food and refreshing drinks across multiple visits! First Visit Highlights: Falafel, Veggie & Baba Ghanoush Wrap: Great flavor and very satisfying. Chicken Salad (with Hummus & Fries): Delicious, huge portion, and the Za'atar chips added a wonderful crunch. Tabsi Kufta with Basmati Rice: Extremely rich and filling. Mint Lemonade: Super refreshing! We actually had to get to-go boxes for both the salad and the Tabsi because the portions were so generous. Second Visit Highlights: Mansaf: The lamb was slow-cooked to perfection in aged yogurt and so tender it fell apart. Absolutely incredible. Falafel Salad (with Tabbouleh & Hummus): Fresh and flavorful. The Za'atar chips were missing this time, but the salad was so good we didn't even mind. Cucumber Mint Lemonade: The ultimate drink for hot weather! Atmosphere, Service & Parking: The ambience is great with plenty of seating options, plus an impressive menu of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Ordering is smooth: grab a printed menu on your way in, order at the counter, and take a seat while they bring the food to you. You can also use the QR code at your table to order extra items from your phone. Parking is easy with plenty of spots. Just a heads up: the dumpster area further out in the parking lot has a strong odor, so try to park a bit further away from that section. Overall, fantastic food every time. Highly recommended!

In all honesty, I'm always worry about eating at new places because what food so much but sadly, I have food allergies and I'm allergic to pork and monosodium glutamate/MSG. When I asked the store about a couple of items, she had to go ask the Chef and then to our surprise the Owner came up to our table and said how she hated S.J. because it gave her headaches so when her husband opened this restaurant, they made sure that they had MSG in it!! I was so freaking thrilled!!! For our first round, I got a porn star martini, my sister got tequila on the rocks. I know she had a particular brand that was Organic, but I forget which one since she only drinks particular brands. Hee. Both drinks were to our liking and then I switched to white wine and loved the bottle of white that the owner suggested. That bottle (pictured below) was clean, crisp, refreshing and had a slight citrus after taste that paired perfectly with a warm summer evening and the lemon from the calamari. The calamari was delicious and crispy with tartar sauce, although I wish they also had a chipotle aioli sauce, but I know I'm just being picky. The wings were pretty spicy considering we got the less spicy version- at least to me, but I can do a Level 3 spice at SJ's Scratch Chicken- WITH a beer handy! Hee Overall I loved the environment and they had a number of tv's playing different sports channels and a separate room in the back. That room was rented out for a private party, but the fact they had the space was nice to know. I will definitely be back here again and I'm thrilled to know I can eat ANYTHING I want, since most places accidentally have MSG in their food, such as Ranch dip, breading on fired items and in certain sauces. Even soy sauce as MSG, unless they use Tamari..... ayyyy. But I loved it here and it was an amazing way to spend my birthday with my sister! Hee. Until next month! We're going back!!!!!!
