4 years agoThe food was amazing! And their house special lemonade was fantastic!!! It's a must try. A decent eating option for non-smokers, but you just have to request for a non smoking place. Their falafel was the best I've ever had and hummus was good as well. Would definitely go back again!

in the last weekI own a hookah lounge in Saint Louis (Exotic shisha lounge) that being said I smoke everyday and this place is by far my fav in Chicago, the food is fresh and tasty the hookah was good but most of all the hospitality from the owner was outstanding. Will deff be back!

a month agoI had some onion rings here and they were soggy with oil, and came 20 minutes after I ordered them. The server was really kind, but I felt like mid-service he got distracted chatting with other customers and forgot to check in on my hookah. I had to really try to get his attention. The hookah started off really strong, but tasted burnt and harsh shortly- I stopped smoking it 15 minutes later

7 months agoI ordered a caesar salad “to-go” she swore me up and down this is a caesar salad. With italian dressing on it. This looks like the rest of someone else’s food. It was the end of the night so im sure it was. Also the menu said 17.99 the receipt she charged 23.99.

6 months agoReally enjoyed the atmosphere here. It's been awhile since coming back to this location but it was a lot more fun this time around with good company. It is a byob, the food is authentic and the service is great. Overall my husband and our friends had a memorable time.
