    Nice atmosphere for a hookah lounge. The only disappointment is that they do not serve alcohol or food.

    The smoke is great but the seating needs to be upgraded. Definitely the best quality hookah I've had in Cincy.

    Sahara Hookah Lounge - This is a black light basement shot. The main floor has a more middle eastern vibe.

    Looking for vegan options, entertainment and a place to chill. This place has a very relaxing…read moreatmosphere that is fun and alive at the same time. Great music and belly dancing on Friday. The Mediterranean food menu had vegan options. Service was slow but ok. Food had a great taste and the belly dancing was fantastic.

    The hookah and the food is fine. No issues there…read more My main issues is the atmosphere, service and pricing. I'll start with the atmosphere. Most nights it feels like it's trying to be a nightclub with its insanely loud music and lighting. Others are that special room at restaurants for people's birthdays. To me it's insane that regular customers or just people coming in for the first time are met with someone at the door requiring they pay an entrance fee. There's a bar next door for that kinda thing. The service here is very hit and miss. Whether it's the fact that you see online it opens at 4pm but you get there at 5 and you can't enter because that's when they choose to mop the floors... or you get there around 11 at night and no one waits on you until you go and get them and even then they take their time to get you a hookah or coals or whatever. Finally the pricing is maddening. I'll attach a picture for the pricing which is also just in the pictures for this place but anyways. My first time going here was on a Sunday night. I got a regular bowl(nothing fancy) and then I got a refill of the same thing. Total was around 30. Pretty standard for most places. The next night I went was on a Wednesday night. I was made to pay 10 at the door for someone's bday party and I had to Venmo them instead of the normal way you pay at the end of the night(super sketch). At the end of that night I only had 1 bowl(nothing fancy again) and the price was 37 making that a total of 47.... The third night I went was a Sunday night. Like my first time going I was assuming that maybe it was a fluke for that Wednesday and maybe Sundays were better??? Anyways I only got one bowl again(same) and I had a cover at the door also of 15 for whatever reason... my bill for that 1 hookah on that night was 48 dollars... so a total of 63 dollars for one hookah. Not to mention they look at you and expect tip. Which is insane to me. The reasons I wrote what I wrote are to warn any newcomers. It's definitely a turn off to get taken advantage of at a place you want to come and either relax or enjoy yourself. You should have specific things you do as an establishment and not veer from it. Pricing should stay what it says in the menu and there definitely shouldn't be some stranger at the door getting grinded on asking you to pay a fee just for wanting to sit down. I will be posting this on google also because my experiences have been insane here. All three of my visits happened within two weeks. So anyone saying that prices change over time. Sorry but that's a bust. The main reason I still put two stars was because the food, drinks and hookah are great. Just everything else is wrong.

    I recently came for brunch and let me say this was the most flavorful brunch I've encountered since…read moremoving to Cincinnati. I mean I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. When we first arrived we were greeted our front with samplers of the breakfast sandwich. So yummy. We were then seated at a large table, where we had made reservations in advance! The mimosas are only $3 during brunch! So I lost count as to how many the table enjoyed! And you can also do other flavors besides orange juice. And of course other alcohol is always an option. Everyone at the table ordered different things. All were great. However the portion sizes aren't huge. Which I liked because I hate the feeling of being stuffed, but others wanted more. I personally had the red velvet chicken and waffles. The chicken was SO GOOD. Whatever you decide to order go ahead and get a side of wings. as far as the waffle it was good but the strawberries made it a little soggy so next time I'll get that on the side. I also heard others mention the catfish and the shrimp and grits were tasty. Also shoutout to our server for taking such great care of us! For a group of 14 that slowly trickled in over the course of an hour she handled all of our orders like a pro! After the meal we went outside and enjoyed the swings and some more drinks on the patio. It was comfortable and fun!

    I was excited to see this venue change ownership because it's a great location but had become…read moresomewhat stale. The new owners have really livened up the place and changed the vibe. The outdoor patio is well decorated and offers a beach bar type of vibe with swings and a sandpit. Inside there are 2 bars, making service pretty fast, but there were a couple of small glitches, like my tab not transferring from one bar to the next and the frozen drinks not being ready. There's also a pool table and ample dance floor. Lots of tv's inside and out would make this a great place to take in the latest sporting event. The food menu is pretty comprehensive and my food was really good, salmon croquette sliders and loaded waffle fries. The service was EXCELLENT! Bartending staff was wonderful as was the food staff. I could definitely see making this place a regular hang out and its proximity to the Levee makes it a nice place to close the night.
