Many flavors and add ons to choose from, like ice pipes and coconut charcoal. The beverages were just alcohol with the choice of juice, such as lemon, cranberry, pineapple, or orange. The drinks came out in red solo cups and it was oddly nostalgic. It felt like we were at a house party with good music and basic mixed drinks. They were a bit expensive for the quality and presentation. There was only one server, so at times it was difficult to flag him down, but he was very friendly.

Fred the owner is very personable and he loves his customers, community and most importantly his culture. With that said, if you want to eat some great tasting Haitian cuisine without spending hours in the kitchen (if you're Haitian) or driving too far then this place is where to go and the ambiance is amazing as well. The food is so delicious that I often stop by to check out their specials, and they've only been opened for a few weeks. Yes, it's that good!!! Pictures coming soon.. going to get some more food today and hopefully I don't eat it before snapping some pictures .

If it wasn't for the great-smelling food coming from the kitchen you might forget that you were ordering food and end up talking to the staff all day.

Couches are comfortable and the music was kept to a perfect level that allowed conversation, yet not too low too enjoy. They serve quality brands of tobacco and use the good Egyptian hookahs. The flavor lasted a couple rounds and the coal service was prompt. The owners and employees were all very friendly and helpful. Good place to take a date or a group of friends. Will definitely visit again when I'm in the area.

The chef is a soon to be CIA grad that is making the school proud. Chicken and waffles were done perfectly and the barbeque burger was seasoned in house. Would have preferred something besides celery with this, though, but the burger was really tasty. Definitely for the younger crowd, as is evident by their drink selection. But go for the food. And bring ear plugs.

Decided to check this place out for the first time last night. Walked in and in and first thoughts…read moreare "it's beautiful in here." There were people smoking hookah and just chillin. There are just a couple of things I would want the owner/management team to be mindful of. First, for a run and coke it's like $10.50 which price wise I think is a little high, but that's not what made me annoyed-the cup that my drink was handed to me in was the same cup I rinse my mouth out with at the dentists office. I've never seen such a small cup. Buffalo Wild Wings gives you a large glass for $8. So they definitely overcharge for the size of the drink. Second, I walked into the bathroom and there was a napkin floating in the toilet-ok, maybe someone dropped it accidentally. I sit down and all I smell is urine and come to find out, management must have decided that instead of going to the store quick and buying toilet paper, they'd put napkins in the women's bathroom and the women were using the napkins and throwing them in the garbage which was why the whole room smelled of urine. The toilet was clogged and almost overflowed. I told the guy who I assumed was the owner, and he said he knew and acted as if he didn't care. Probably because they were all high. Literally all they need to do is put a smaller trash can in that little bathroom, plunge the toilet so it works, ensure there's toilet paper and go to the dollar store to get some glassware for your bar. I get it's a new business, but spending $50 so you can have 50 glasses would create a better experience. If they can get it together, I'd consider going back.

My BF and I were looking for a local hookah spot to cap off our date night, and after some Googling…read morewe stumbled on Istanbul Cafe. All of the reviews were complimentary, and from them we already had a heads up that they did not sell alcohol. Let me just say, I am SO HAPPY that we found this place! Although it was FREEZING outside, and thus a bit drafty inside, the vibes were everything! Once we walked in we were immediately tended to (and carded for our ID and proof of vax) and seated. We ordered (Blue Mist + Mint with a Pineapple head) and it was HITTING. Nice and smooth! I got a ginger ale (bad idea bc again it was FREEZING lol) and my BF got a cappuccino which came in a clear glass and he enjoyed. The music was also great and the place was filled with a good mix of ppl including couples, girlfriends, and bigger groups. So it's clearly a bit of a neighborhood spot where everyone feels welcome and can just vibe and have a good time. I will definitely be returning soon! PS: Located upstairs on the second floor of a building and the stairs are a bit steep. Just an FYI!
