Nebu Hookah Lounge

Not bad cute spot small and intimate....2floors downstairs was way to hot ...young crowd 21-30. (I felt kinda old lol)  Hookah was decent (had better though) good for a night out on a date or for a girls night out.  Music was good-a little too much rap for me though. I would go back just because I can easily walk there from my home!!!!
1 recommendation though: please get real couches!!!! It is a lounge right??!!?!?

I've come here twice so far, and both the hookah and the staff are truly excellent.  Nothing but great things to say about either of those- they have some really interesting hookah blends, and the staff is really friendly and on top of things.

The first floor lounge is pretty standard for a hookah bar- comfortable and unpretentious.  Downstairs, same deal but with one major caveat- it's about the size of a large broom closet, and on weekend nights, there's a DJ with full-size speakers exploding your eardrums.  I understand the party vibe they want to create, but it's just totally not the space for that volume level.  Unfortunately, because there was a private party in progress, we weren't able to move to a table upstairs at first, and had to deal with the inappropriately deafening DJ until one of the staff members (very proactively, mercifully) helped us move upstairs.

The other thing that's a negative is the price of bottles.  I know the alcohol is where the margin is, but I have a rule: if bottles cost me more than they do at an amazing lounge like Flute, I'm paying too much.  It was something like $140 for a bottle of Moet, which seems to be above Manhattan prices (clubs and their predatory gouging excluded).  They wanted $500 for a bottle of Dom, which is laughable- I can think of many very nice lounges in Manhattan that sell it for $300-350, and even a few that have it for under $300.

I'll be back for the hookah and the really accomodating and chill staff, but will be a little hesitant to splurge on champagne again, and will do my best to avoid being seated downstairs.

Hookah was great! Staff was attentive...not fan of location though.
