Very chill if you don't get frustrated easily
This place is truly great. Everyone is friendly, and the hookahs are spectacular. I would recommend the Jasmine flavor, but pick and choose as you like. The food isn't exactly my type, but my friends who do like mediterranean food say it's very good. A word of advice: don't complain about the minimum drink charge. Yes water is $5, but so is everything else, so you might as well get something exotic, like the mint lemonade which is a real treat. Set aside as much cash as you think you'll need for the bill, then add $20 more, it's always more than I expect, but definitely worth it.

Not the grestest service ever
we were there on saturday night. nice atmosphere. hookah is smoking nice. until the waiter comes and tells us we need to leave because our table is reserved for someone else. never mind that they just served us fresh drinks & hookahs.

more pros then cons most def
Theres alot of pros but most def some cons. i go about every week with my friends. we love the place...its great for hookah and to just relax. the bill is a killer every week.. it just creeps up out of no where..The service is great. The only thing i have a problem with is the bill. they always put somw weird charges that one feels as though they have to pay because there judgment is clouded due to all the liquor they have drank and hookah they have smoked...

Great place
Yes it is a bit expensive however you are in the city... you are not very city knowledgable if you think it's going to be cheap. The food is great middle eastern food, if you don't understand it you're going to think it's bad. They have a huge choice of hookah flavers and the service is always beyond friendly. The atmosphere alone is worth going for. Oh and if you don't like bugs, dont go to a place you would eat outside.

Not for the food
Don't go here for the food. That makes your visit rather pointless. Example: i had tabbouleh salad there and it was literally a plate of parsley. Not good. BUT if you want a nice place to chill out and smoke a hookah with some friends, i definitley recommend it. it gets a bit pricey, but i like it. very relaxing.

Not recommended
I liked the atmosphere and how you smoke in a little courtyard, but honestly why can't you smoke cigarettes or cloves? You're outside in the open air! The hookahs were barely pulling, and the minute they gave us our check they took both hookahs away...we never said we were done! And bottles of water are 5 dollars each, and theres a 1 drink per person minimum, so beware. 20% gratuity included, which is annoying, since we definitely would not give that service a 20% tip. Overall not only would I never go back, but I would advise everyone considering this place to stop considering it.

Pros & Cons
The food was great. The service was VERY friendly. The atmosphere, was nice and it felt like you weren't in New York, but there were flys buzzing around, and we ended up paying ten bucks for just WATER! We planned for it to cost us about 10 bucks. Instead the bill was 23.00. Beware what you order. Because the bill can come with suprises.
