Kush is certainly the most Americanized hookah-centered bar I've seen. It's fairly bright, has modern/minimalist furniture, and two plasma TVs run sports all the time. The hookahs are good and they bring coals regularly all night. I was surprised to see American food on the menu, like burgers and fries. The chicken curry is great. The majority of the customers seem to be between 25 and 35.
Relative to hookah bars elsewhere, I'd have given this a 3. Seems to kind of have an identity crisis. However, it's the best hookah place I've found in OKC and I'm sure I'll be frequenting it for as long as I'm around, so I'm giving it a 4.
I absolutely love Kush!
First, the food's amazing. It's not to spicy (unless you ask for it that way), nor is it bland by any means. Super flavorful, and the meat is always cooked perfectly. I've had most items on the menu and if you get a chance to stop by, you absolutely must have the hummus!
Then, of course, is the hookah. It is the BEST. I'm not a big fan of using all-caps, but it's definitely necessary here. I've had several mixes, suggested by the owner. Grape-lemon is another must-try. Also, their house special, the "Kush Mix" is fantastic. It is a bit more than the other flavors, but worth it every time. It's always the first flavor my friends and I get, and then try other ones on our next bowl.
Overall, the staff is great and very knowledgeable about hookah and drinks - their alcohol selection isn't bad at all either. I don't drink, but my friends are always satisfied with their choices. The scene is extremely chill. Nice enough to take someone on a date, but chill enough to go with friends. On Thursday and Friday nights they have a live DJ, who's always great. I'm not sure how it is on Saturdays (haven't had a chance to try it on Saturday night yet), but I'm sure it won't disappoint.
One more thing. Not to knock on the other hookah places in Oklahoma, but Kush is by far my favorite!
