After searching for good hookah in New York, this seemed like a good bet. My friends and I weren't disappointed! The tobacco was top-notch, and the two appetizers we ordered (stuffed grape leaves and cheese turnovers) were devoured in minutes. I loved the atmosphere and the music. The one thing that all of us noticed was somewhat poor service. Perhaps we just caught the waitress on an off-night, but once we had our hookah, no one came by to check on us for about an hour and we had to flag someone down to ask for a change of coals. Once we asked, it took another 10 minutes for someone to come do it! My friend and I ordered our appetizers at the same time and her stuffed grape leaves were brought and eaten... while I had to sit and wait an ADDITIONAL 20 minutes after they were gone before my turnovers arrived. We had to again flag someone down to bring our check. The wait-staff was pleasant, just not very attentive. Otherwise and very fun and relaxing evening.
Pros: Very reasonable hookah price, great ambience
Cons: Far from subway, wait-staff not very attentive
