Nile Cafe

Hookah is weak, service is horrible, food is bleh. It is cheap ($10 for hookah, $5 for falafel sandwiches) which is awesome but you're getting what you pay for. People came here, looked around, and just left. I think this place seems to attract a very specific audience and you have to come here with very low expectations.

It just is a very unprofessional establishment. I am absolutely shocked at the high ratings for this place. When I came last week I literally smoked in the parking lot. They had some buffet thing inside so everyone smoked outside. Which was very weird because it was 10:00pm so I don't see who would go to get a buffet at that hour. The staff will literally sit there and smoke next to you and kind of interact. I'm a very friendly person but this was straight up weird. The staff are too busy hanging and smoking that they don't even replace the coals often enough. And no matter what they did the hookah was very weak. Big waste of time and money. Won't be returning anytime soon.

If someone dare goes after reading my review (I warned you) be sure to bring cash. No credit cards are allowed.

I've been going to the Nile for a while now and their hookah has always been great but for the month I've been going the hookah has been pure crap, it all tastes the the same and very cheap now and sad to say I'm disappointed. My guess is the owner is cheaping out on Tobacco, and has lost me as and many of my friends as a customer. Maybe in a while I'll go back to see if anything has changed but for now we will not be going there anymore.

Cocktail shake (banana, Strawberry), hookah, hummus, pita bread and chicken kabob and the deserts  - everything deserves 5 stars. I was on a visit to LA and long beach when I came here. San Jose area doesn't have same quality of hookah and everything else under one roof. Lastly, Robert, the owner - Aamir are very cool and friendly.
