Came here one night with my brother and the lounge definitely felt like home!…read more This lounge is an arab owned/managed location - it is jointed with another restaurant that also seemed to be owned by them, so you could order food/drinks in this area. It took about 5 minutes to get seated but as soon as we sat someone quickly came to our table and took care of us. We ordered a standard double Apple hookah and tea - it came out within 5 minutes so that was great. Hookah was strong and quite good! For a Wednesday night they were quite busy, the spot provides free cards to play with and they play music (that's not too loud). Mostly you will hear the conversations everyone is having. Decor was very nice and it was comfortable. Workers don't wear any work outfits/attire so you will need to keep an eye out who looks like he works there! Would definitely come back here, loved the arab vibe and comfort there.

Literally the worst hookah I have ever tried in my life - that is not an exaggeration. Unbelievable…read morethat they still have to ask if you want quick light or coco nara. Who still uses quick light charcoals in this day and age!?!? Hookah they brought out was a mini starbuzz hookah that was the cheapest POS I have seem a lounge serve. If you enjoy a nice quality smooth hookah experience, this is definitely NOT the place. Atmosphere is mostly regulars and friends of owners. Seems more like a private social club. The lounge was 100% older male patrons. I requested (specifically fumari brand) lemon mint and what they brought me was definitely another cheap brand that I wouldn't even serve my worst enemy. We stayed 5 min and left and would recommend nobody come here for hookah. Trust me when I tell you all these 5 star reviews are fake and must be friends of owners. Just my 2 cents.

Great flavor options and service. AJ is knowledgeable and ensures you have a great experience…read more Definitely recommend going to this place.

Apparently this is the closest hookah lounge to downtown Oceanside, but I'm not complaining. Hidden…read moreaway in a non-descript strip mall, there's plenty of parking since all the other stores are closed by the time you (I) start feigning for some chill vibes and nicotine. Nara lounge itself is chill, with good music and low lighting. Service is great and patient while we asked about their shisha menu. But no matter what I ask about, I always end up going with the classic W.G.B & mint combo. White gummy bear and mint is always a hit. The staff was attentive and replaced coals regularly. The pack itself was decent, as evidenced by just an average amount of smoke we were able to get with each puff. It wasn't a shitty smoking experience for sure. Yelp Adventures 2025 - 13 of ??

I'm a little delayed on my review of this but I was craving a hookah lounge visit this weekend and…read moreinstantly remembered the reason for the craving was because of my awesome experience over at Myst recently. My wife and some friends hit Gaslamp to celebrate my birthday a few weeks back. We were having a great time so far in the night barhopping and what not and we made our last stop over at myst. They were closing soon but we had just enough time to grab 1 more drink and a hookah. Forgive me if I'm wrong but I think the guy that helped us out was named J.t. And he just took amazing care of us for the rest of the night with the awesome drinks, hookah and dope music. My group really enjoyed ourselves that night and a lot of that experience was because of our visit to myst. Thank you guys well definitely be back soon!

If you want a chill spot downtown with hip hop music/vibe, this is one of the spots to go to. Be…read moremindful because it can be ghetto so if you are looking for something bougie, this is not the place. There's often fights inside or near Myst. Giving it 3 stars because the bathrooms are DISGUSTING. There's only 2 unisex bathrooms and they are often clogged up. If it isn't clogged up, there's no toilet paper or it's just trashed. Sometimes the door lock is broken too and won't lock properly. They have been doing some renovations to their furniture but not the bathroom. It's so gross. The specialty drinks are really good. Especially when the bartender Chase is there. My favorite is the Pink Lagoon. It'll sneak up on you because it is made with tequila. It's like an alcoholic pink drink with the coconut cream, guava and pineapple. Pricy with drinks averaging $15-20 and they have an automatic 18% surcharge on weekends (that is not tip). Food is great. Some of the best wings downtown. The lamb chops are really good too. I wouldn't get the wagyu sliders. It wasn't good. It tasted like an average slider advertised to be fancier since it's "Wagyu". I've had better sliders elsewhere for much cheaper. Save your $30. Parking here is horrible because it's in the heart of gaslamp. Horton plaza parking is probably your best bet if you can't find street parking.

-- 10 STARS. PERIOD…read more Just pulled up to Pushkin Bar & Hookah Lounge in Gaslamp Downtown San Diego... and let me tell you -- this place hit me straight in the nostalgia and the luxury receptors at the same time. I first visited this spot 12+ years ago when I was living in the San Diego area. Back then it was basically the holy temple of traditional Russian & Ukrainian cuisine -- the one and only in downtown SD. Very authentic, very -approved. That cute fancy borsch was literally to die for. And yes... you happily paid big $$$ because authentic Russian grandma cuisine is not supposed to be cheap -- it's a cultural investment Fast forward to today -- I walk in and BOOM They transformed the whole concept into a super chill house hookah lounge + fancy executive bar vibe... yet somehow still managed to keep those legendary Russian gem dishes on the menu. That's what I call strategic evolution. And wait -- plot twist -- they added a full-scale sushi menu. From pelmeni to premium rolls... this place is now basically a geopolitical peace treaty on a plate. If you're Russian from the hood -- you simply MUST pull up. Order the $30 pelmeni dumplings (mandatory ritual). Top them with black caviar if you're feeling oligarch-level fancy -- I mean why not, live once What they've done here is honestly genius: They took old-school grandma recipes... put them in a luxury outfit... added hookah lounge energy... sprinkled executive bar aesthetics... and created a serious relaxation & dining destination. Perfect spot to unwind, talk business, vibe out, or just pretend you're important -- works every time. Huge respect and special thanks to Julia -- the host & bar boss. Top-tier service, warm energy, yet still operating in full professional boss mode. Love to see it. Also respect to the main boss himself -- and yes, go check his stand-up comedy next door. Let's be honest... he might actually be the only funny performer in the whole joint But hey -- quality over quantity. If you've never been -- you absolutely must go. Authenticity + reinvention + vibes = rare combo Amen
