On a random Tuesday me and a couple of ppl stop by here. Well it wasn't that random…read moreIt was my friends birthday. We heard that the hookah and drinks were pretty good, so we decided to cross that bridge and see what's up. ( staten islanders always have to cross a bridge lol) When we got there the host was very welcoming ... like he actually likes his job. The atmosphere gave a very chill elegant but lay back vibe. We order an espresso martini with cognac ( that's my go to ) it was a 7.5 We got the love 66 with a splash of mint and the hookah was busting I give it a 8.5. But all in all it was a good time but also a little price. But they'd did give us conplementary shot for being the only ppl there on a Tuesday I guess lol

The staff was very attentive, and on top of everything. Was here for a girls night out, and…read moreeveryone got a different drink. All the drinks tasted great, so everyone got round two of the same drinks. I had the Lychee martini and it was really good. Cocktails here are well made. Definitely a great spot for a girls night out.

So the upgrade from what this place looked like before was huge. It had dirty seats and pillow…read moretables vobbled. Now the seats are nice , clean the place doesn't look as tacky . And then the waitress comes I asked for cranberry juice and quickly changed it to pineapple juice . She came back with cranberry , we asked for water she brought o e not two for the both of us , we asked for small plates for our food which just came and she brought to go containers instead . When we started ordering the food they didn't have fish for tacos they didn't have steak for tacos and no pork I believe as well . She said the mozzarella sticks were really good . Then they come a they are just plain simple out the bag ones with sprinkled dry parley on top. We asked for sprite they were out of sprite as well and this place got the damage audacity to apply an automatic 18 percent gratuity when she would have been lucky to get 5 bucks that service and lack of viability on a menu that had like 8 items on it as is !!' And the tacos as you can see in the picture the zero effort of pre shredded cheese , and smallest tacos shells ever 3 for 18$ not worth at all Won't come back for sure .

Service here is friendly and welcoming. The ambiance and very modern and chic. The drinks are bomb and the food was fresh and seasoned well. The plain fried wings were nice and crispy and I got my sauces on the side for alil kick. The hookah was also good... blueberry mint is my go to flavor. The dj was definitely spinning some tunes. Very clean restroom, nice decor. Great for after work, groups, date night, or even a girls night. Great happy hour pricing guaranteed to get you lit. I highly recommend.

5-Stars! Came here…read morefor Easter Sunday. This was my second visit this year and they are always so gracious, and welcoming, Sal who is one of the owner always greets us and remembers our visits and special requests. The restaurant is beautiful, looks as new as the day it opened. All of the staff are well trained and you feel like you are being taken care of like a Michelin Star restaurant. Our waiter Artale was very nice, patient and did not rush us. We had as appetizers the Green Apple Fennel Salad, corn scallops and the King Prawns. All were excellent and colorful. For entrees we had the Deconstructed Beef Wellington, Miso Glazed and sesame crusted Halibut, with a side of Truffle Cauliflower Mash Potatoes. For desert we had the Peanut Butter Cup and the Apple Cider Zeppoli. Everything was presented well, tasted great and had the perfect temperature. I would highly recommend Terina for a great experience. I will be back again.

Upon entering, you walk through the bar to the dining area in the back. The place was flooded with…read moreBay Ridge locals, you can tell right away this is a real neighborhood spot. The decor is over the top in the best way. Trains running around the ceiling, lights, signs, decorations hanging everywhere. Classic old school tavern feels all the way. The menu is full of classic bar food with great prices. They do use English muffin buns for the burgers which actually works, easy to get to the beef patty. I liked the char on the burger, gave it that smoky grilled bite that hits, but I asked for medium rare and got medium well, so the temperature was overdone, made it a bit dry and less flavorful than I wanted. The cheese slice was thin too, could've used more punch, but flavors still hit. Service was nice and attentive, but kitchen can be slow, so don't come in waiting super hangry.

I've been to this restaurant multiple times, but unfortunately my most recent visit was enough to…read moremake me reconsider coming back. The service has declined significantly. It took about 30 minutes just to receive our hookah, and nearly 20 minutes before anyone even came over to ask for our food order. We spent far too much time waiting with very little communication from the staff. I also noticed that an 18% gratuity is now automatically added to the bill. Once I realized that, I stopped leaving an additional tip like I had in the past. Since then, the level of service I've received seems to have changed noticeably, which is disappointing because gratuity should never affect how customers are treated. To make matters worse, the atmosphere no longer feels welcoming. The owner appeared visibly unhappy and unappreciative of customers, and several employees were talking about people as they walked by, which created an uncomfortable environment. I used to enjoy coming here, but between the slow service, the change in attitude, and the overall lack of professionalism, I can't recommend this place based on my recent experience. I hope they take customer feedback seriously and make improvements.

Everything was excellent, but the paella was the star of the meal my wife couldn't put her fork down. The drinks were cold, refreshing, and paired perfectly with the food. The only downside was the service at the front. The host seemed a little unfriendly, which wasn't the best first impression. Thankfully, the manager stepped in, was very welcoming, and seated us in the back, which ended up being the perfect spot for a quick bite and a couple of drinks. Overall, the food and drinks definitely outweigh the small hiccup at the beginning. We'll definitely be back for happy hour again.

Maybe I should blame my friend for giving this place such high praise. I ordered their chaulafan…read morerice which was actually really good and so were their chicken wings very flavorful. My friend ordered the steak and shrimp skewers when they received the food the shrimp was raw was not cooked at all and they weren't gonna say anything so I had to step in and tell the server that the shrimp was raw which they recognized and they ended up bringing out cooked shrimp. Very weird. Doesn't seem like the healthiest thing to do for that. The fact that they didn't discount anything for that experience was wild too and it was hot as hell inside, I know it's summer but let's get a fan or something in to rotation. With that said our server was great and understanding. Will I come here again, maybe not top on my list but maybe sometime in the future. 3stars l

My friend and I stepped outside of our normal hookah lounge that we usually go to in bay ridge and…read moredecided to come to Bay Ridge Cafe. There hookah is on point. Strong, so many flavors, and you can smoke for hours and the flavor is still there. Not only is the hookah amazing but the service is outstanding. The owner is a sweetheart and makes sure the customer is 100% satisfied not only with the hookah but the environment. He gives his general opinion and doesn't want to take advantage of people. He literally told us not to waste money and to get the ice hose because the regular hose has ice in it. The people that smoke there are so sweet and yes, you will get carded so have a form of ID with your date of birth. The Moroccan tea is very good, and to smoke pomegranate mixed with anything is not going to disappoint. If you don't want to spend the five dollars on the ice hose there regular hookahs have a little ice cooler inside that makes the smoke come out cold. If you want it cold the whole time your there get the large ice and pay the five dollars. The guys are always coming around changing the coal. You can stay there as long as you want and you are not feeling rushed to leave. I always get hookah special on the fruit but this time I got regular and I LOVED it! This place is a must come to smoke hookah. The owner is an amazing cook too, cant wait to come back and try his Yemen style food! Highly recommend coming here. We ordered to regular hookahs, 1 Morocco tea, two waters, and a gingerale. It came out to 31 dollars. So with tip $40 well spent.

Amazing vibes and music with great shisha and tea. Lovely owner and service!!!! highly recommendread more
