    The restaurant had a warm, cozy ambiance with dimmed lighting, making it a perfect spot for hookah enthusiasts. The food and drinks offered were excellent, adding to the overall enjoyment of the experience.

  • Review 2 (2024-05-27 - Rating: 5)

    We came back twice in one night because it was THAT accommodating. Our servers name was Kimberly (Kim) she was attentive and thoughtful. She continuously checked on us the entire night and made sure we felt seen! The food was a 9/10. I’m not big on hookah but it’s there if you want it too. You will need a reservation because this place gets packed. Great atmosphere, even better customer service.

  • Review 3 (2024-08-23 - Rating: 4)

    Food was all good, though not sure to the extent that it merits a 5. It’s a decent place for a good time but not one I necessarily go around recommending.

  • Review 4 (2023-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    This place is one of a kind in Manhattan. I’m from out of state and I was super impressed. The food was spectacular. The mushroom truffle pizza is to die for. The lamb cops and chicken was fresh and cooked excellent. Clean and cozy atmosphere. High class spot with awesome hookahs. Pretty pricey but your posting got the quality and service. Very nice staff the girls did a a great job.

    This hookah lounge/ restaurant offers a great vibe with well-prepared food and drinks, perfect for a laid-back night out. The decor is modern and stylish, complementing the overall atmosphere. The hookah experience is enjoyable with a variety of flavors, but the prices can be a bit on the higher side compared to other spots. Despite the cost, the service is attentive, and the ambiance makes it worth the visit for those seeking a relaxed evening with friends. A solid spot for hookah lovers!

    I’ve been to NYC a few times, but it was my first time here and everything was amazing. Ida was the perfect server! She answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations. The food was amazing (I had the red chili hummus and Lobster pasta but the lamb sliders were my FAVORITE) and the hookah was spectacular! Will definitely recommend and I’ll be back.

  • Review 7 (2024-10-29 - Rating: 4)

    Came here for a night cap after some wine. Very cool decor on the inside with like a sexy jungle vibe. We got a hookah and some cocktails. Our bartender was able to make us some off menu drinks like an X-Pat and he was very creative. As the night got later, it turned into more of a club vibe and had good music. I do think we got over charged for a couple things but we didn’t wanna make a big deal out of it. All in all it was a good time in NY with my girls.

  • Review 8 (2024-12-22 - Rating: 5)

    The food, service, and music were spectacular. After my sisters wedding, we celebrated there. The event logistics were impeccable. Pergola is a MUST if you are in NYC

  • Review 9 (2022-05-19 - Rating: 5)

    Vibe : My favorite hookah and happy hour place in the city. It’s always so much fun when we go here! Music is always on beat and the people are friendly. I always make new friends when I go here.Food : Get the lamb burger and thank me later. This is literally the best burger I have ever had (and I’ve had a lot). Is so juicy and packed with flavor. We also enjoyed the hummus with meat and pita. Again, packed with flavor. Get those two dishes.

  • Review 10 (2019-02-09 - Rating: 4)

    Very rustic place. Also a hookah lounge. Interesting menu. Good appetizers, try meatballs and hummus. Good avocado toast. Greek salad was chopped in really large pieces, like half of tomato large. Good ingredients just wrong cooking, I also added chicken for $8 and it was completely dry. Good service and friendly staff. Hookah looked good, but we didnt try it.

  • Review 11 (2024-09-10 - Rating: 5)

    Pergola is a sultry spot for a great time. The staff are dressed beautifully in black and the music is usually great. Come here for amazing hookah, cocktails and food. We ordered the Love 66 hookah, I got the Short Rib (has a sweet potato puree) and lychee martinis. The short rib is so tender and delicious, I get it for every dinner

  • Review 12 (2022-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    What can i say, a gem of a place in new york, from service to food, to ambiance to music and hookah (or sheesha as we say in Middle East) We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner with hookah. The place is hip. Highly recommended. Read some negative reviews on management but didn’t faced any. Would i come again, yes

  • Review 13 (2023-12-27 - Rating: 5)

    This place is AMAZING…!!! I went there for my birthday 12/26 and I enjoyed it. From the service to the food. Best experience ever. Only thing I regret was leaving. I should have stayed. I left to go to A Pink Wonderland Pop-up Bar got there at the time I was supposed to and was denied entry due to the individuals who scan tickets left early. Nevertheless, I should have stayed at pergola and gave them my money. Definitely going back and staying for a bit longer then my first time there.

  • Review 14 (2024-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    I had a great time with my family, the event planner was extraordinary, amazing recommendations and helpful. I will definitely go back again.

  • Review 15 (2024-07-10 - Rating: 4)

    100% Halal, however they do serve alcohol on the premises. We also ordered Hookah, and surprisingly long lasting and packed really well. The best item was the pergola sliders. We ordered the mixed grill for one, pergola wings, branzino fish & on the side was the crispy pita. The pita was delicious. The food was a bit dry for me but overall still good. The service was great and the bathroom was clean. Def recommend a visit!

  • Review 16 (2024-07-30 - Rating: 5)

    I have been to Pergola many times and all I can say is I always have the BEST time! I went this past weekend for my birthday and big thanks to the manager for taking care of us. The table, waitress, DJ, hookah and food were amazing! I was so relieved when I pulled up and they offered valet parking! I couldn’t thank everyone more for such a great night! Thank you!!!!P.S. Thank you for taking good care of my Range Rover Sport! Haha

  • Review 17 (2021-09-15 - Rating: 4)

    My fav hookah place in New York City. I have been here zillion times. It’s always easy to get a spot if you book in advance. They have good food, good drinks and great music and vibe. Definitely recommend this place for a romantic date, Group or any event.

  • Review 18 (2024-02-16 - Rating: 5)

    Atmosphere is very cozy. Good music. Food was amazing. Loved the octopus and roasted lemon chicken. Quality foot, great ingredients. Watermelon hukah was superb. Great spot!

  • Review 19 (2024-09-07 - Rating: 5)

    The restaurant is very nice but a little warm in my opinion but we were sitting by the door so it made sense why it was warm. The waitresses were very nice and attentive. We got our food right away which was surprisingly because of how busy it was inside. I got the moroccan lemonade and the grilled shrimp. I personally love shrimp and this was very good with avocado!! I wanted to order the margarita pizza but it was not available but next time ill come back just to order it. The inside is dim since it was still bright outside it was fine. 10/10 experience.

  • Review 20 (2023-02-19 - Rating: 5)

    Loved the Tzatziki and the Hummus with Meat. Overall had a great dinner. Friendly servers

  • Review 21 (2024-05-31 - Rating: 5)

    Visiting from another state, I was thoroughly impressed. This place is a true gem in Manhattan. The food was extraordinary. The mushroom truffle pizza is simply irresistible. Both the lamb and chicken were fresh and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere is immaculate and welcoming. Its a high-end spot with excellent hookahs. Although its somewhat pricey, the superb quality and service make it worthwhile. The staff is exceptionally friendly, and the women provided outstanding service.

  • Review 22 (2024-09-27 - Rating: 5)

    I went here at 1am on a Wednesday morning after a work gig.The vibe in this place is superb. The lighting, atmosphere, and decor are spot-on. The DJ is phenomenal. He has exquisite taste and spins quite nicely. Honestly, this place is a hidden 💎 . I still cant feel my feet, and its three days gone. Ill be back.

  • Review 23 (2024-08-18 - Rating: 5)

    Kind staff. Authentic food. The hookah lasts hours & the hookah staff are readily available to change coals.

  • Review 24 (2024-11-30 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing food, great drinks, strict staff, great music, good hookah, ill definetly go back again.

  • Review 25 (2022-11-06 - Rating: 4)

    Super cute restaurant with a full bar and serves hookah! And they have happy hour. Food was ok, I’d return for the vibe!

  • Review 26 (2023-10-17 - Rating: 5)

    Great service, music, ambiance and place to hang with friends. Drinks were good. Saw lots of couples here as well & would suggest it as a good spot for a date. Looking forward to coming back to try their food items.

  • Review 27 (2023-05-26 - Rating: 5)

    Good food, great ambience! Our waitress was Chelsea super sweetheart! Enjoyed my night here! Hookah was very good!

  • Review 28 (2024-08-04 - Rating: 5)

    Reservations are preferred depending on how busy is the night they will let you in or not. This is a busy place with high profile guests. I had the meatballs, couldve been better. Fries are to die for. We mostly went for the hookah and my husband loved it (Pergola Dragon was his choice) Mocktails are very good especially the Moroccan lemonade, must try. We went every night during our stay and the vibe was great, music on point and the staff is on top of everything. The hosts are amazing. Doorman was not very nice but you will avoid inconveniences by making a reservation. They also have Halal options.

  • Review 29 (2023-01-12 - Rating: 4)

    Romantic, intimate vibe perfect for date night in NYC. Lamb chops, sweet potato mash and grilled shrimp were top tier. Service is mediocre. Don’t expect phenomenal service. Hookah was smooth and great. Music 10/10. Highly recommend Pergola. It’s really dark so you need your phone light to see/eat your food which was the only down side.

  • Review 30 (2019-09-04 - Rating: 5)

    This is very very busy spot! And there is a reason why - good food, drinks, hookah and dj make this place booming practically every night. Reservation strongly suggested, also keep in mind that this place works only till 2 AM

  • Review 31 (2020-01-22 - Rating: 5)

    Been there twice, once for lunch, they have really fresh options. As a vegetarian, this was a pleasant surprise. Ill be going regularly.Weekends they have the best parties. The music was on point. Amazing crowd and great time.

  • Review 32 (2021-06-06 - Rating: 5)

    Pergola is a nice gem. The service is great, the food is very good and the ambiance is nice. Young crowd with good vibes and music. Cocktails also on point, definitely recommend for an after-work dinner or dinner with good/party vibes.

  • Review 33 (2024-04-16 - Rating: 5)

    This place is a go to for me anytime I’m in the city. The food is amazing and they have really good hookah. The service is fantastic, the drinks are strong and the atmosphere is gorgeous. What more can you ask for?

    Hookah bar with Lebanese cuisine.Food was absolutely delicious, and hookah was very smooth. They have late night snack menu after 11pm. My friend and I loved this place so much that we visited 3 nights in a row.P.S. Wednesday night DJ slayed!

    Love the vibe and ambiance.The food is soo delicious!! Wow!!

  • Review 39 (2019-03-10 - Rating: 5)

    The hummus was fantastic. Its a must have if you like hummus. I got the shwarma, had good quality meat, very filling, with a lot of veggies. The tahini sauce was delicious but you should eat it fast. If youre taking your time, the wrap will get soggy. Overall it was great, very chill atmosphere.

  • Review 40 (2024-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend Pergola! The lamb chops and crab cakes were amazing, and our event coordinator provided fantastic service for our large party. Great dining experience!

  • Review 41 (2019-08-03 - Rating: 4)

    A great hooka bar with lots of fancy cocktails and decent snacks. It gets crowded in there so get there early or reserve a table. The food is fine, the main draw here is the cocktails and hooka. Fun for a group of friends possibly a date.

  • Review 42 (2018-11-13 - Rating: 4)

    Absolutely one of the best hookah bars with amazing food. Book yourself a table before heading there.

  • Review 43 (2021-08-22 - Rating: 5)

    Trendy and busy place m, great for a night out. If you’re into hookah, you can find it there. We didn’t have food but drinks were good. I like the vibe, I liked the music.

  • Review 44 (2021-07-23 - Rating: 5)

    What a nice spot and great decor. Sit back and enjoy so many different unique drinks while smoking on a hookah.

  • Review 46 (2023-12-23 - Rating: 5)

    My friends and I had a great experience at Pergola last night. Even before walking in, the gentlemen at the door were very respectful, our waitress Veronica did an excellent job so did Miguel. I was here a few nights back and met a few more of the staff: Lalo, Alex and few others…. Absolutely incredible venue. It’s definitely a place where you can celebrate your birthdays, go on a date and impress your lady with a remarkable experience as well as ball out with your boys and create amazing memories.I’ll definitely be coming back very soon. Thank you Pergola.

  • Review 47 (2019-11-19 - Rating: 4)

    Always a good time at pergola. Crafty drinks, premium hookah. Honestly the best hookah Ive ever had. All of them use pineapple bowls. The food is pretty good too. It gets packed pretty quickly so if you want to secure a seat, be sure to get there at the beginning of happy hour!

  • Review 48 (2024-07-27 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 55 (2023-04-08 - Rating: 5)

    Not sure why the ratings on this place are relatively mediocre. I’m a hookah fan, and this place might be the best lounge I’ve been to. They have large hookahs, which I think is key. None of the hot, throat burning smoke you get with these cheap little hookahs elsewhere. They pack a massive hookah and are attentive and generous in replacing the coals. We legitimately smoked our hookah for 2 hours without noticing any drop in quality. It is definitely a “club” type vibe late at night, but it still managed to be a chill environment where we were seated (upstairs). Great experience, and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a hookah lounge in Manhattan.

  • Review 56 (2024-02-05 - Rating: 5)

    The ambiance was super classy and the service was great. I couldnt decide what I wanted & our waitress was really helpful. Food and drinks were amazing!

  • Review 57 (2024-10-17 - Rating: 5)

    Here’s a revised version:---⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I had a fantastic time at Pergola! The atmosphere was vibrant, and the music was so good that I found myself wanting to dance. The food was delicious, so was the Sheesha. While the overall service could use a bit of improvement, it didn’t detract from the great experience. I’ll definitely be returning!

  • Review 63 (2022-12-07 - Rating: 4)

    Cool little hookah spot with good energy. Food and service are just okay. Hookahs have decent flavor options. Highly recommend getting a reservation since this place tends to get crowded. We even had to wait 30 minutes past our reserved time for av table once.

    Its a lovely place to hang out. You must make a reservation before you plan to visit. Despite an enjoyable atmosphere, it was too crowded to enjoy the occasion. Its a little small to handle that much traffic. Even so, youll have a good time.

  • Review 66 (2021-11-22 - Rating: 4)

    Delicious salmon and lamb chops.. the cheesecake was a bit hard to eat (crust was extra thick/hard)

  • Review 67 (2021-10-14 - Rating: 5)

    I have an absolutely excellent time every time I go! Doesn’t matter if it’s the bar, or for dinner it’s great! Ask for Laura as a server, she makes sure you’re feeling amazing AND she’s the absolute sweetest, most attentive, and thorough waitress. Had my birthday here, and she’s absolutely made my night!

    I hadn’t been here in years! The atmosphere was still great. I had a good time.

  • Review 70 (2022-04-22 - Rating: 5)

    Pergola is probably my favorite hookah spot in the city. I enjoyed the ambiance and the setting. The music was also good. The hookah and the food were also really good. Our hookah was constantly refilled and we only needed one throughout. The grilled lamb chops and the grilled salmon were my favorites on their menu. The service was good, but a little slow. Only thing to keep in mind is that it can get really busy. If you prefer quiet, then upstairs is probably best, but if you like a good vibe and maybe dancing, ask for a table downstairs. I definitely recommend this place.

  • Review 71 (2023-06-09 - Rating: 5)

    Best shisha bar in NYC by far! 💯

  • Review 72 (2023-02-24 - Rating: 5)

    For starters, I’ve been to Pergola on numerous occasions, for dates, for dinner, for birthdays. It’s a great time, every single time. Great vibe. Awesome service. Good food.However, I’m leaving this review for Jaylynn specifically. She was a gem helping me with my upcoming birthday reservation. She was thorough, honest, and super helpful… like above and beyond.Thanks for your awesome service!

  • Review 73 (2024-01-23 - Rating: 5)

    Loved it here. Me and four of my girlfriends came here last night and the experience was good, I can’t wait to come back. One from our group arrived late and they kindly accommodated us at a bigger table. I had the salmon and rice for dinner and I was happy. I would definitely Come back. Keep in mind that they’re at about a 2 hour limit at the dinner tables, which we’re aware of and completely fine with.

  • Review 74 (2018-07-12 - Rating: 5)

    Best hookah lounge in the city. Best hookah lounge I have ever been to. There is a club/lounge feel on the weekend nights. People are not afraid to get up and dance. I have been a few times and was beyond happy with each visit.Not a spot for the best food.Hookah is great .I have not had one issue with the service there. With or without a reservation they try their hardest to seat you no matter how slammed they are. Mona is an excellent human being, hope to be graced by her presence when you choose to go here.Bottom line, if you can reserve and get in, its hands down the spot to be to smoke some hookah!

  • Review 75 (2024-06-06 - Rating: 5)

  • Review 76 (2021-07-16 - Rating: 5)

    Great spot to have fun. They have strong drinks with real juices. Costs a lot but makes sense for the location. Their hookah is one of the best in the city. The music could be better but also I was there in a Wednesday night last time so they probably didnt want ppl going crazy.

    Wow what an experience. This is a very busy and crowded venue and I can see why. The hookah was amazing, they were constantly changing the coals and the wait staff was very attentive even though we had s party of 30. The food was surprising amazing. The wings were delicious and the platter for two was delicious.

    Cute spot. I love the mezze options. Pergola is a mediterranean food restaurant that offers hookah as well. 2 floors, cozy and it can be intimate as well.

  • Review 81 (2019-06-01 - Rating: 5)

    Definitely a go to spot. A little on the pricey side, but I’m from Houston, Texas so a good hookah is like $13-$17. The food is amazingly delicious well worth it. Hookah’s are great and all come with fruit heads. The bar is great. A lot of options and the atmosphere and vibe is great!

  • Review 82 (2022-11-01 - Rating: 4)

    Sheesha bar in a really nice location and great decor and vibes. Aesthetic is very beautiful.The milk base Sheesha was horrendous and made me feel sick (I believe the flavour was Pergola Nights). Got it replaced with the double Apple mint that was one of the better double Apple mint’s I’ve ever tried.Tried the espresso chai-tini which was a 7/10.Will be back to try the lamb burger that looked fantastic!

  • Review 88 (2018-12-18 - Rating: 5)

    They hookah was amazing. Their hookah never disappoints me. Had few drinks very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff, especially the bar tenders. This place gets very crowded after 8pm. If you are into that kind of scene, make sure you make reservations. If you want to smoke with relaxed environment, then any time from 1pm to 7pm is good time. Another plus point is that this is one of the few places in city that offers hookah before 4pm.

  • Review 89 (2023-04-01 - Rating: 4)

    The food here is so good! I got the hummus with pita bread, regular/fried & for my main dish Lamp Chops with mini potatoes and sautéed spinach.Me and my friends loved the food but the music was not for us lol which is why I gave 4 starts, if they played better music this place would be a totally different vibe. They also have hookah which was nice and they always came around to change the charcoal. You’ll spend about $100 per person but it’s worth it for the quality of food. My friends loved the pizza they served and Lobster pasta/crab cakes.

    Pergola is a classic spot to get great Mediterranean food, hookah and catch a vibe!

  • Review 92 (2019-04-29 - Rating: 5)

    Staff is very professional and polite. Mixed grill is a must the hookah is normal nothing special and very expensive but your in the city so your paying city price so it doesn’t hurt this review. Atmosphere is nice and elegant does get loud at times.

    Such a great spot to hang out! Equally a great date spot as well as a group dinner spot. The wait staff is very attentive on the 1st floor, not too much on the 2nd. Definitely a vibe here. Definitely recommend the fries especially during happy hour - to die for! The truffle mushroom pizza is also really really good. Never have anything bad to say about the lobster pasta either. The wings are only ok - not worth. Definitely recommend.

    Hard to get a table.... but the atmosphere was dope. The Buffalo chicken pizza is FIRE!! ALSO, The bathroom situation sucks for women.

    We go here mostly for hookahs even though I don’t smoke, I give company. The drinks are pretty ok and food as well.

    Super chic place for hookah, very nice vibe and food was good to. Best service, walked in without a reservation and they were very accommodating and prompt in service throughout.Must try - red chili hummusMay be try - Lemon Garlic friesMain topic - Hookah - we tried pina colada - felt like smoking the drink exactly. TBH, don’t bother paying for the premium one, it’s nice but not worth extra 10 bucks. Regular hookah will hit as well. Hookah was well made, lasted 1.25 hours after being smoked constantly by two. They charge 5 bucks extra for the plastic hose, it’s compulsory so that will add to hookah cost.Fun discovery - they only have “bottled water” so be ready to see that charge tooThe music and noise is quite loud in thick of the evenings. But before the rush hour it was pleasant in vibe to enjoy music. Heels or fancy footwear are mandatory after 9 pm for women.Also paired a glass of wine with it, Apps and Hookah.Might go back again! To try other hookah flavors, but with my own ‘water bottle’ though this time. Haha!

    Really great place. Very delicious food and amazing hookah. Drinks are on point. Our waiter Mona was beyond great, checked up on us every few minutes despite the fact that the place was very busy. My new go-to place in the city. Highly recommend this place.

    Food, drinks, and hookah were AMAZING! Ms. Moe Money & I had the privilege of sitting at Greg Scott’s table and it made our night! The lamb sliders were “melt in your mouth”. I will be here often!

    Went there for the first time last night. Super cool bar with a great selection of drinks and hookah flavors (if youre into that).Music was cool, but maybe a tiny bit too loud.Definitely worth a second visit!

    A really hip place to have a cocktail and enjoy appetizers.

  • Review 101 (2018-02-15 - Rating: 4)

    Im not a big hookah guy but this bar is fun. The drinks are good and its a great atmosphere. It gets very crowded so get there early if you want a table. Be ready to spend some money because this isnt an inexpensive place. But youll have a great time and enjoy your night out at Pergola.

  • Review 102 (2018-09-30 - Rating: 4)

    Whenever we hear about a bar with decent hookah, we have to try it! This is how we ended up going to Pergola as well.It has a really nice ambience. Like many other lounges, this Lounge is quiet and bland on weekdays but springs to life on weekends. It has two floors. The second floor is chill and has a good spacious seating area with low floor tables. The music is loud enough for you to stand and dance a bit and also is low enough for you to strike conversations with your buddies. When you are buzzed enough, you can head downstairs for an epic night of dancing. The music is thumping with the DJ dropping one bomb after the other.Drinks are decent but nothing extraordinary to write home about. Friends fries are good and Hummus-Pita are decent. Hookah is why we come here for. Though nothing can beat the hookah that we make at home, this comes second to it. Sparkling ice is my favorite. It has champagne base and ice filled hose. However, they have a tendency to mess it up sometimes (flavorless). Orange mint is really good as well.Why did I take away one star? I dont know. I feel that this Place has a lot more potential than it showcases. Put some friendly servers and add some more finger food and I might give you 5 stars!P.S.- Always make a reservation on the weekends.

    We were late for our reservation, but it was fine the waitress was able to accommodate us and told us we would have to finish eating within 1.5 hrs. However, they lose 1 star because we had to wait a very long time for anyone to take our order. They gave us a time limit to eat, but didnt send anyone over to us. We were concerned that our limit may be up before we even got our food. I ordered the vegetarian cauliflower dish & it was DELICIOUS. The pomegranate seeds and pine nuts really gave it a unique taste. Loud, party like scene. Hookahs available, but way too overpriced and not great quality.

    Great Place … Great Service !

    The place was nice. We entered without a reservation thanks to the nice lady at the door. Food was good!

  • Review 109 (2021-07-07 - Rating: 5)

    Good food and drinks.Worth noting that food and hookah are served in the same space, which surprisingly, was not a bad or overly smokey experience because hookah smoke is different than cigarette or cigar smoke. I dont like cigarette or cigar smoke when eating, but this was fine.

  • Review 110 (2018-06-25 - Rating: 4)

    Went here for a perfectly serviceable work lunch. Nice open ceiling for an airy feel. Its a little dark at midday however. Good selection of sandwiches and light Mediterranean fare. Salon was good but slightly oversalted

  • Review 111 (2022-12-04 - Rating: 5)

    Great hookah spot. Decent food and really great ambience and music. It is also not too loud to the point where you can’t hear the person next to you, so you can still have a conversation.

  • Review 112 (2023-01-31 - Rating: 5)

    Its a great place to go for music, good food and vibes. Most industry folks use it as the pregame spit, but its a great after work spot to grab drinks.

  • Review 113 (2018-12-27 - Rating: 4)

    Good food, nice place & atmosphere, its also well ventilated so nonsmokers wont have to suffer while others smoke hookah.The service was sub par, so you should be patient until your waitress remembers your existence.

  • Review 115 (2022-02-11 - Rating: 4)

    Here’s the review to pay attention to. It’s a nice place and dark enough to get weird. House music with a dj and strong drinks. Food is good enough and the ambience is nice. It would be a nice place to bring a date.

  • Review 116 (2018-08-18 - Rating: 5)

    Food was good as well as the atmosphere and aesthetics of the please. I wished the menus gave more detail as to what the dishes contained. I ordered something under the impression that it didn’t have any cheese and the platter was loaded with it.

  • Review 117 (2019-08-06 - Rating: 5)

    All you have to do when you get here is, get blind folded, touch anything on the menu, and Bang!!!! The magic happens. You literally start speaking in tongues. I promise you, everything cooked/prepared here tastes out of this world. Waitresses, amazing. And great ambience. Loved it. The food was so good,,didnt have time to take pics of my food.

  • Review 118 (2018-11-01 - Rating: 4)

    4 stars for great service. I only had fries and sheesha. It could be a bit disappointing if you are a hookah enthusiast. But for most people who dont smoke regularly should be ok. A bit expensive though. But given the location I kinda get that.

  • Review 119 (2023-03-16 - Rating: 5)

    Hookah lounge, Restaurant & Bar — Favorite lounge in Manhattan during lunch time. Less crowd, more quiet, and more importantly you can take time to enjoy yourself. Drinks were affordable, and hookah were approximately 50-55 USD.
