My sister-in-law and I discovered the Shisha Lounge by accident, my husband and brother-in-law were getting tattoos at Slaughter House (which is located in the same little plaza.) Anyways, the tattoos were taking forever and we were becoming very bored so we decided to walk down the strip and see if there was anywhere to get a pedicure. What we found, however was the Shisha Lounge.
The atmosphere inside is calm and cool. I like the music that they play, it's a wide variety of techno, rock, rap, everything. They usually only play music that is pretty calm. They have many different flavors to pick from and the mint is very good. It seems very clean, the bathroom is clean, and it is very laid back. The first time we went, my sister-in-law and I spent about 3 hours in there, laughing, smoking, talking, whatever. I am not a smoker, so for those of you who have never smoked hookah before, it is not like smoking a ciggarette. It is much more smooth and it doesn't make me feel like I am going to cough and choke and die. My sister-in-law and I enjoyed it so much the first time that we went back a few days later and smoked again with some friends and my husband.
They also have basic concessions (candy, chips, water, soda) and they have hot green tea. It is SO good! I would definately recommend getting it, it is very soothing when you are smoking. They do not have alcohol, but if they did that would make the experience even better. ;)
I would give the Shisha Lounge 5 stars but the reason I decided on four was simple- the guy who runs the place is RUDE. A friend of my sister-in-laws had recommended that we try "apple-mint" so the second time we went, that's what we wanted to try. When we went in, we asked the man at the front if we could get apple and mint and he rudely replied "Do you see apple anywhere on the list?" and snorted at us as if we were retarded. Anyways, we ended up settling for sour apple and mint, which wasn't a big deal, I just didn't appreciate his rude comment. We are CUSTOMERS, paying good money to come in and smoke. (It's not a very busy place either, so it seemed like he would be greatful for our business?) The other guy that works for him, he comes around and ashes the coals and stuff, he is very, very nice and polite. We were very impressed by him both times we went.
Anyways, Shisha Lounge is a cool place and I plan on making my third trip later this week! :)
So I discovered this place through yelp and I am so glad I did!
It's less than 5 mins. away from where I live which makes it convenient.
The atmosphere is great. I agree with the other review about the rap music. It kinda ruins your buzz. There is also a wide variety of flavors!!!!
You should definitely check this place out!
I love the Shisha Lounge! It is decorated nicely, and the staff is friendly. I certainly enjoy the product, although...due to popular demand...they tend to play loud rap music...all the time, except when they have belly dancers. Personally...I don't feel that rap music really goes with the flow of smoking shisha....but apparently the local population must think it does. I love the place, but won't go unless they have the dancers there. It's the only time they play music that meshes with the experience, and getting to watch the fantastic dancers, Kisaya and Sariah are the good ones...is such a bonus.
I wish they had the belly dancers in more often! I would totally be there more!!!
