Oasis Cafe and Hookah Lounge

Reviews & Tips

  If you're looking for a decent hookah bar to sit back and relax with some friends, avoid this place. Please. I'll start by saying the music is extremely loud and of the hip hop variety (the awful mainstream kind that plagues the radio waves), so don't even think of talking to your buddies. And good luck with getting the attention of any of the less than witty employees here. I swear, every time I've been here, we order and it takes them a good 20-30 minutes to get our hookahs out. One time, they even sent our hookahs to another table. SERIOUSLY? WHAT. And be aware that you cannot split checks in that you must buy a hookah for yourself. It's cheap, but still. Disclaimer me. Just avoid this place and go to nearby Cafe Istanbul for a more genuine, fun experience smoking hookah.

  I went here on a whim because I was craving Hookah and this place was close by and had a deal. Before this, I had never been to a Hookah bar, and only experienced it at friends' houses, so I didn't quite know what to expect. Well, my friend and I walked in and was told to sit down anywhere. There were seating with cushions but they weren't the most comfortable things in the world. It felt like they threw a huge cushion over a wooden crate and called it a lounger. Ha. After, we picked the flavor and waited while it was prepared. The guy brought out the hookah but had difficulty pushing the top all the way into the base and it still didn't end up being secure. I picked watermelon but I wasn't able to taste much of anything so I was disappointed. I probably won't be back, even with the discount, and especially because my friend told me about another place that he liked better.
  
  PS - it looked like almost all the guys who worked there were high.. *ahem*

  My friends and I came here on a Tuesday night and we were the only ones there for awhile. They might want to think about investing in some more lighting. It's kinda scary walking in someplace where you can't really see where you're going. It makes me think they've got something to hide. The two stars fits good because i've definetley had a better hookah experience. I was pretty open-minded and gave it a shot, but unfortunately I wasn't too impressed.
  
  The girl that waited on us built up this mango flavor that turned out to be pretty average. She was always outside busy flirting and putting on a show for the owners/coworkers. We had to shoot a flare gun to get her to change our coal after it needed replacing. Idk. Maybe she was just having an off night but it really didnt seem like she was too concerned about our business.
  
  I might have given it a better rating if maybe she come to check on us at least? The whole time we were there, only one other small party of 3 or 4 came in. Like I said the flavor she said she LOOOVED wasn't that great and we would've told her that if she paid the slightest attention to us.
  
  All in all, this place is worth the 2 out of 5 stars, only cuz I didn't wanna be extremely rude. i think they get away with shabby service cuz they WERE the only hookah bar close to my wade green residence. But righht down the street CAFE ISTANBUL just opened next to the LA Fitness. Oasis needs to step their game up and replace the shabby waitresses if they don't want everybody to follow me and my friends to the brighter and more spacious Cafe.
