    Went there my first time to Chicago on a summer Friday night and the place was very busy! About 30 people seated during my time there and a diverse crowd of colors and races. Very nice vibe, good furniture with a variety of chairs, tables and couches, and all the customers seemed happy. They had several staff who were friendly and also very attentive to the customers. Hookah was very good and the price was also just right, not too expensive. Very good hookah pace and highly recommended!

    Red gummy flavored hookah. Great and strong

    Great and long lasting hookah, came in early afternoon and it BYOB. They changed our coals one time and it last lasted for a good hour or more. Would come here again very chill, clean and lux looking as the furniture is nice and comfortable. Not many food options so eat before you come!

    Came week prior to and the experience was nice had a party of 5 came back this week. And the staff just was blatantly disrespectful. When asked for accommodations for 3 they gave us extremely small seating but groups of 2 or the same size they provided them with better seating as we sat and requested for a change of seating due to my lower back. Staff ignored us and kept on with there business. My party and I felt discrimination played a part in the service we received.

    It's hard to find a good hookah spot and this one turned out to be great. make sure to ask for the price of the hookahs on the black menu.

    interesting place to feast your eyes. My suggestion, request…read morea cocktail menu before ordering. I'm not adverse to paying a premium for a cocktail, however, I feel $50 is excessive for two"old-fashioneds.

    Latest visit (4/24/2026) was good food and entertainment. However... got a text the next day…read moreaccusing me and my boyfriend of not settling the bill. This was untrue and we had the receipt and his account shows the money was withdrawn. The text from "Dr Jaaf Aksikas" threatened the police would be called for theft of services. I told him my boyfriend paid and would be calling him to speak with him. He raised his voice with my boyfriend and then wanted to go over the receipt line by line, asking if we ate this or that. He accused us of getting wine, but neither of us drink alcohol and only had lemonade and Pepsi. My boyfriend has eaten there many times over the last 16-17 years without incident. I responded to the text that we would never leave without paying because that is crass. This is the same guy who, while we were at dinner, walked around the restaurant with his nose in his phone all evening and did not acknowledge a single person. When my boyfriend and I left the restaurant, this man had gone out before us and let the door close on us. I am truly disappointed because I genuinely enjoyed eating there. If this is how business is conducted, I want no part of it. ​
