Blu Hookah Lounge

The place is in a small strip mall in a mainly residential area which was strange but it really stands out - all blue just like the name.  Blue lights on the top, blue "flames" on the side.  

My friend and I got there just after 8 and the place was pretty filled.  Mostly people here come in groups and just sit there because they do not charge by the coals or by the number of people.  You could get one hookah for your group and you only pay for one.

There are TVs everywhere, free wi-fi, some PS3s on some of the side set ups.  There are huge leather couches, mid-size leather couches, and small chairs for smaller groups.  

Because of the nature of hookah, people tend to sit and smoke.. and smoke, which means that place doesn't really open up. We were lucky to get a spot at around 8:30 and ended up taking up one of the larger couches because we couldn't find any place else.  

Coals were replaced very diligently which was very nice because in some places you have to hunt down people to help you out.  Lots of options on the type of tobacco and on the hookah you want (hose, base).

All in all a great place to just chill, relax, you can bring food (or buy food from the place next door), and in the music isn't blaring loud that you can't have great conversation with the people next to you.

Went there for my first time, was an awesome experience. They were packed (which is a great thing for a new business). It took about 5 min to get us a seat, they  had great tobacco flavors to choose from, several different Hookah options, different head options and different hose options. We opted to go for the fumo hookah, which gives a smoother hit, the ice hose, which was awesome, the grapefruit head, and the mango and mint tobacco.  Service was outstanding, the atmosphere was wonderful. Would definitely recommend to people!

Awesome happy hour prices and options (cooled hose, grapefruit head, different bases), great selection of flavors, cool atmosphere, and great service. We ordered mint/melon combo (if you're new to hookah, highly recommend mixing in mint with another flavor since it leads to a nice cool kick) with a grapefruit head had our coals replaced nearly every 15 minutes, smoked for an hour, and the tobacco wasn't even nearly done. We could probably have gone on another hour.

Didn't order the food so can't comment on that, but as far as good places to catch up with friends and smoke hookah for a reasonable price, you can't really ask for much more.

Only suggestion: the bathroom's a really weird layout. It's like 900 sq feet, and is for some reason only made for one person at a time. Maybe they hold business conventions in there on the side? That space could probably be used better, especially if the place gets crowded.
