The draw is tastier and a lot smoother. In case you're afraid of germs or are sick, they give you disposable mouth pieces for the hookah. The occasional person will be in there with a laptop and a hookah for one. Sometimes a group will be there with some drinks. It's a very casual, laid back vibe. The owner will play all sorts of tunes/ music videos on the flat screen tv up on the screen. It ranges from Bollywood type tunes, to 80s, to recent rock and top 40 pop charts. It's a bop. :) The place is mildly expensive. Around $20 for one round of hookah? There is also a fee of a few dollars if you bring your own beer/ alcohol.

The space itself is the only downside - it's small and the seating is not very comfortable or conducive to relaxation. The vibe inside is nice, however, and they were playing a combination of Middle Eastern and American pop music videos while we were there. The staff was very friendly and attentive- I didn't catch the girl's name but she was very knowledgeable about hookah and had some good tips for us. The flavor was great- we had to try the house-made "Pussy Juice" flavor, which was a combination of different fruits and had a really nice citrus-y bite. My boyfriend wanted to buy some to smoke in his hookah at home but they don't sell it except for on-site use.

However, there were tv's playing the Steelers game and we were served immediately. In addition to our Watermelon Mint hookah, we got vegetarian stuffed grape leaves, as well as falafel appetizer. Both foods tasted very fresh and flavorful! I loved the vibe here. It is more comfortable than other hookah bars in the city, we had excellent service, great prices, and delicious food! I definitely would choose this place over the ones in Southside if you're looking for a more comfortable, higher end experience. They also offer fruit hookah bowls which is a premium type of experience to typical hookah. I also could tell the flavors they carry are great quality because our hookah lasted sooo much longer and was so much more flavorful and smooth than in other places. I will be back again! Give this place a try!

This is a big place that can accommodate a crowd. There are 3 lounge rooms inside, a pool/game/ party room, and then also outdoor deck seating. Very nice art and decor and variety of styles.

Service was excellent and I would go again.

Just the kind of atmosphere I was looking for. The south-side is a really neat area of Pittsburgh to visit and this place just adds to its charm. Their hookah tasted authentic, and they kept the coals coming. You can also smoke cigars, vape, cigs, whatever you're into. It seems like people come mostly for the hookah, though. Great night!

Great setting, solid menu, staff are friendly and seem relatively knowledgeable. My only qualm is…read morethat I came to hopefully sample some flavors I've been looking at, but their flavors are somewhat limited. I say somewhat because they have an extensive range of Al Fakher, and a handful of Starbuzz and Adalya, so they're not exactly lacking in options, and the flavors they do have are widely held in high regard. That said, they only have blondes, so if you're looking for a deeper buzz, or to try something richer like Tangiers or Must Have, you'll have to look elsewhere. In summation, I'll keep looking at others, but this one's not bad, worth checking out if you're a beginner or just looking for a generally chill experience

We also got grape leaves and I was not sure if I should get meat or no meat so I let the person taking my order decide. They chose meat and I am SO glad they did. They were delicious and hot. My falafel had lebanese pickles adding a delicious crunch! My husband's gyro meat was sliced so thin it was almost shaved and the sandwich featured copious amounts of it! We ate at the counter which was not fancy but it sure for the job done. While waiting, we browsed the grocery section and got some pita to take home with us.
