Fantastic ambiance, friendly servers, and love the secret bar behind the hookah lounge! The food at the bar is pretty good too! When you enter, you'll be asked if you were here for the bar or the lounge. The bar is the speakeasy hidden bar in the back that is behind a bookcase. The lounge is the hookah lounge that you see when you enter. The hookah lounge only serves nonalcoholic drinks. But with a great ambience, you can just hang and smoke and talk the night away while having sips of liquid refreshment. If you want an alcoholic drink or feel a little peckish, make your way back to the hidden bar where you can have some fantastic, cocktails, and delicious nibbles. Parking can be a little tough, but I found parking on the residential street around the corner. There is only one restroom: a unisex single room. So don't hold it for too long if it's busy... Luckily, I have yet to have to wait in line for the restroom for more than a minute. read more

Great flavored hookah along with good service. When we came, it was a bit on the quiet side in the hookah area so if you're looking for a place that's easy to chat with someone this might be just what you're looking for. read more

Overrated! $50-60 for a hookah is crazy!! Just because it's on Melrose they hookah should never be that much plus you can only eat in the speakeasy so that was a miss! I've had way better places for less money. It's a no for me read more

Hours are incorrect, phone system and online says 6pm open, got there and their sign says they open at 7. Left & got dessert came back at 7pm and they were still in the processes of opening. Came in and sat down and they said their hookah guy was running 1 to 2 hours late. So not only were hours incorrect, they weren't even ready for patrons at their correct time. Such a bummer for date night! read more

She is BAD wtf ? Howwwwwwwwwwww ? she complains about every single thing and we couldn't even get our regular table because she says we have to call and reserve it and it's empty! It's 5 of us we got food and drinks in the back and 2 hookahs in front read more

The place is nice, the ambience was good. The bathroom wasn't that clean how you would expect. It's a good place to smoke in, Haven't been back in a while, don't know how everything is now. read more

Smh this used to be a great space however now they are over charging like crazy $30 for 1 basic cocktail and the gratuity is not included in insane and a scam I've been to some incredibly nice spaces and have only paid $25 tops for a beautiful cocktail there not much variety or excitement incredibly unsatisfied. read more

Really great hookah spot on Melrose Ave. The hookah was super smooth and flavorful, and the vibe was chill with great music. Staff was friendly and made the experience even better. Definitely coming back! read more

This is a 2 in one gem and really caught me off guard with how the layout was. It has a super cute speak easy in the back with great food. I didn't leave one bite behind. I will definitely be back and recommend you give it a try. Walking in I would've never known they had a hidden restaurant and bar in the back. Good customer experience but the only con here is parking but that's most of LA read more

One word: TRASH. 25 minutes for a hookah? From a rude-ass dude with zero customer service? Then they sneak in an automatic 18% "hookah fee"? Nah. This place is a joke. Don't waste your time, your patience, or your money. read more

Great experience on a Monday but curious how they are on a weekend when it's busy. Excellent service for a Monday at 10p. The decor here is very cool, pretty standard hookah setup but they have some cool pieces. I like how their hookah's look, very different shapes and they pull well. Speakeasy located in the back, bartender was mad cool and cocktails were made well. Will definitely be back before heading back home. read more

Overall, I had a bad experience and just lousy service. I would not recommend this place to anyone in LA. 1) There was only one bartender, and it took too long to get a simple Red Bull. There were too many people wanting over 10 minutes just to buy a drink. 2) It took 45 minutes to get our hookah, which was not up to par, and 25 minutes to get the right equipment. 3) The Manager and the owner never even gave us a discount for our troubles--just a few apologies and the expectation of full payment. 4) Due to the lack of Leadership and direction, it took too long to address simple concerns. 5) Lastly the hookah wasn't even worth the 200 dollars, we paid to have fun. read more

The hookahs here are amazing! Saul is the best server here! It's a speakeasy, and a cute spot!

Nice host , chill spot and good vibes and music . First time there would come back. Also has a speakeasy in the back where you can grab some food as well read more

Good news: The hostess and my server were super cute and friendly.The place is well ventilated and decorated. I liked sitting in the throne lounge chair and smoking the Gwagon (lemon mint and white peach) that my server recommended. You can also peacefully watch a game here like you're the caterpillar from Alice and Wonderland! Bad news: The lowest cost for a hookah is 44.99 but with the service charge and tip it will actually come to around 70 which seems a tad extreme especially if you are flying solo. I would have liked for the full price to have been more transparent. I wasn't too crazy about the metal gates over the windows. read more

Love the hookah!!! Christina was so helpful and recommended a great flavor!! Great ambience as well!

As much as i think this place is cute and I love hookah i can't give a good review. It took about 40 mins to get our server to take our order and another 30 just to get the hookah. That's all we got, 1 hookah and water for a party of 4. I expressed how annoyed I was and the server apologized but i like to give the benefit of the doubt at least once. Once we got the bill the server said "I removed the water off the bill, that's all i could do" excuse me??? We have to pay just for water too?? They do bring the water in a Voss bottle but i can clearly see the server fill up that container with water from the sink from where I was sitting.... This place is just ridiculous. Who chargers for water?!? read more

Always a viiiiiibe. Love the ambiance . Still seems like a hidden treasure. The bar entrance and seating is great to relax and enjoy

My friend and I came here to celebrate our birthday, first off there was a language barrier with the guy that set up our hookahs, we tried to explain to him that one of the hookahs didn't work he kept telling us to pinch the hose .. why should we have to pinch the hose for the hookah to work properly? Next I ordered a tea from the waitress instead of her handing me my tea she sat it on the other side of the hookah which resulted in me getting brunt on my arm. There was one person taking orders, I guess they were short staffed. In all it was a waste of time coming here. read more

Came here the other day with my wife we've been smoking hookah for 15 - 16 years and we know our hookah. We came to this lounge since it was on the way back from our dinner. The place is nice with a cool laid back vibe. Hookah rating 2 or 3 out of 5. In the beginning the hookah was great but burnt out within 15 or 20 minutes. Service 3 out 5 there really isn't much attention being put to the customers. I would rate it as a 2 but I don't know if they are busy at the bar end of the place as well. read more

Great staff. However they need to work on their music, Seems like they have it on Spotify shuffle. Also, they were out of many juices/mixers so I couldn't order any of my favorite drinks. read more

The hookah was pretty strong. Overall a good experience and nice ambiance. It was hard to enjoy the hookah sometimes because it was harsh. read more

Great hookah and service! The hookah lasted a few hours and tasted amazing and fresh and clean. Beautiful aesthetic overall!

Been a here a few times and although expensive, I enjoyed the music and vibe. Fast forward to tonight and that all changed. This place usually plays hip hop / rap music which I love and that's always what they play. Tonight I walk in and they are blasting country music. I thought maybe it was just one song and they would go back to what they normally play. I was wrong. They played country music non stop and making it louder each song which was miserable for us. I asked the waitress nicely what was going on and she mentioned the owners were here and playing their own music. I get it, it's your place and you can do what you want but don't come in and go against what your business is known for and let down customers. After 10 more minutes I asked the waitress nicely will you please let the owners know we came here for what you normally play and she said she would not. She didn't even seem to care 1%. I immediately ask for the check. $60 with 18% service charge (which is not a tip). I was looking forward to coming here all night and was severely let down. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else read more

Great hookah place! Their hookahs are soooo smooth. Not harsh at all. They have a cute speakeasy too. Just ask them!

It was my first time coming here on Saturday night and I'm never coming back again horrible. As soon as I put my tip in the hose and started to inhale a bug came in my mouth and I spit that out right away. It was alive!! One of the workers had the nerves to say " You sure that came in your mouth?" Clearly it's on camera & I have a witness. How can you be rude to your customers & assume that quick. Clearly y'all didn't clean the hose correctly. He then apologized a couple mins later. Never in my life has that happened before. read more

I came here one night with friends who obviously wanted Hookah. We were visiting from NYC. We arrived around 8 PM & the place was not crowded. We saw a rope outside that was meant to maintain a line, but the host was not outside. Therefore, like any normal person we stepped inside & waited for someone to come seat us. The male host was unprofessional & made a snarky comment regarding the purpose of the rope outside was for people to wait there until an employee arrives -- mind you, due to the placement of the line and the door, you can't see from inside if anyone is waiting outside to be let in. If you are going to be host / hostess at least be welcoming as if you are inviting people into your home. The lack of professionalism was extremely evident. Our server was great - all of the ladies were very kind. However, you could definitely tell that the "head honcho" was not everyone's favorite. Per my friends -- the hookah was great though. I would just recommend a more welcoming atmosphere or just spend your Hookah coins where you feel welcomed! read more

Hookah was amaaaazzzziiinnnggg! Service is great! Come for a date night or a chill night with friends. Music is icing on the cake!

Max was great had a conversation with him, very down to earth! Food was amazing !!!!! Chicken sandwich was really good
