We came in here pre-pandemic, back in February. We arrived on a Friday afternoon after an early…read moredinner. My husband had never tried the hookah before, but I had in Istanbul, so I thought it might be something unique to do. We were greeted by a friendly lady, typical warm Turkish hospitality. Neither of us knew what to try, as we aren't smokers, but the owner helped us pick out something light and fun. There is a plethora of flavors! We went with apple, which was quite good. I like that this spot also offers some yummy Turkish beers, we each enjoyed an Efes. It was pretty quiet when we visited, only a few other people. The vibe is dark and chill, very cozy and comfortable. We had a nice visit here and glad we tried something different.

They have different kinds of music all during week and weekend but we went on Wednesday and it was a Gypsies, belly dancing type music.. I really enjoyed it. The band was very nice and stopped to chat with us. Not a lot of people were there at time but got busier as night rolled on. We grabbed our beverages and sat out back and the staff brought the tacos to us. Not your normal run of mill tacos! They had meat and rice and nice semi spicy sauce and lettuce. Each taco was 3.50 which isn't bad at all. They have great selection of beers as well as ciders in cooler and few on tap.. cool place to hang out for bit..

I probably shouldn't have wondered into a place called Puff Puff Palace in the first place, but I…read moredid because I saw a blinky sign out of the corner of my eye that said "HOOKAH!" and here's what I thought. First, you go up about 6 flights of evil stairs of death. I mean, one wrong move and you're losing your ankle and going to probably roll to your death. They are old, uneven and narrow. Once you are out of breath and have successfully reached the top, you enter a, what's supposed to be, a hookah lounge/bar. Mind you, this was NOT my first trip into a hookah bar, I've been to plenty in my time, yet this was by far the worst attempt at a hookah anything. But yes, they do have hookahs.... The decor is strobe lights, black lights and disco balls. The black lights are great for illuminating the questionable stains on the many shitty couches that are haphazardly placed around. The music isn't Turkish, Egyptian, or anything else that you would think should be playing in a hookah bar. What we heard was shitty top 40 R&B singles that was turned up WAY too loud. Since we had survived the Death Stairs, and we were already inside and it wasn't crowded (yet) we ordered a hookah. The girl recommended a specialty flavor called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle. Um, WTF? Do I look like that's what I want to smoke? A Teenage Ninja Turtle? Alright, eff it, I'll try it. It was a mix of Grape and Mint flavors. :/ About 15 min into puff puffing on this TMNT hookah groups of people started coming in. These people looked about 12, to me, but hell I might be so old now I can no longer tell how old people actually are. I'm going to guess they were at least 18. Everyone also started smoking cigarettes. GROSS. Many years ago I was a smoker, so I get it, but since I haven't touched a cigarette in about 2 years, I defiantly don't want to go home reaking of ashtray. So, my friend and I left...and as soon as we got up to pay for our TMNT hookah experience and brave the walk down the 6 flights of Evilness, some thug looking tween took our hookah. Whatever... My take on this place is shady ass teeny bopper hang out where they illegally smoke Newports. No thanks.

Being that my husband is a hookah addict, it is hard for him to find a place that satisfies his high standards, and Arabian Nights definitely does. The price of the hookah depends upon the number within your party, and they do provide a 10% student discount M-Th, which is pretty cool considering most of their customers are students. Their shisha selection isn't very large, but they are quite delicious, and do serve tea, coffee, juices, and so forth, along with dessert. I don't know if they are still doing the dessert, but the baklava was yummy. On certain nights there is cover to enter to listen to the live music and/or to the see the belly dancer that they have come in during the weekends for entertainment. The decor of the cafe will transport you to the middle east. Its absolutely romantic, thus I would recommend it for an after dinner activity that would surely wow your date.

I am a big fan of hookah and I have been to hookah bars in a lot of cities. This, by far is the…read moreworst I have been to. The place is ridiculously overpriced, from charging $7/person for cover to $3 just to to get ice in your sheeshah. They even charge you to get soap water to blow your bubbles. You bear all of these expenses to experience sub standard quality of the hookah. The atmosphere was meh, the dj was average and the staff seemed like they didn't really know what they were doing. Just when we decided to ignore all the negatives and focus on having a good time and were about to get comfortable, we were asked if we would consider moving to another location to accommodate a bigger party of people. That was the proverbial last straw that completely ruined the experience for us. I would not recommend this lounge to anybody looking to get a decent hookah in Wilmington, Instead I would suggest that one go to Juggling Gypsy, that's located less than two miles away from this one for a much better experience.

We walked in at like 10 on a Friday and it was completely empty. It just felt creepy. We were told by the waitress they did not have liquor only wine and beer, then out of no where a guy came to say he could make a martini. We ordered two martinis and it felt as if they were going to drug us. The atmosphere is not Plesant. Hookah is over priced and the tips they have do not fit the hoses. The waitress couldn't help us get the tip on so she bit the tip to rig it. She was putting the hose all the way in her mouth, gross. Save your trip and visit another bar
