Starbuzz Hookah Lounge

I was expecting a lot more from a hookah lounge that carries the name of the major company, Starbuzz, unfortunately I was a bit disappointed.

To start off, as soon as we walked in there was nobody at the counter for a good 5 minutes or so, and you have to wait to be seated. As soon as we were greeted we were 'assigned' a spot to sit down at. There were many empty areas, but apparently the owner doesn't allow customers to sit at "his couch" and the rest were reserved. I find that a bit lame that the owner would rather have his own couch than cater to his customers. I've never been to a hookah bar where my seat was assigned.

The girl who helped us was a bit slow and didn't really know too much about the product. She tried her best to be helpful and friendly. A little awkward, but not bad.

I read in many reviews that coal service was quick and pretty steady, however, it seemed a bit slow for my liking. I'm used to my coal boy coming every 5 minutes or so to check on everything. They normally continue to make rounds around the hookah bar to make sure everything is okay.

I've been to some really great hookah bars in the area. This one is one of my least favorites.
I may have expected too much with the name, or maybe they are slacking a bit.

One thing I really liked was the metal/rock music they play, without blasting your eardrums out while you try and socialize with your friends. Most hookah bars play rap or techno.

Other reviewers are right about the high school crowd, very young crowd, so no drinking at this hookah bar. However, Killarney's Irish Bar & Grill is in the same plaza :) Check that out.

This place is pretty fun. Just came here for a birthday last week, it was a little hard to find...coming from San Diego and rarely ever making it down to Temecula, I was a little bit put-off because Starbuzz had literally no lights on that you could see from the outside.

Once we got in, the environment was pretty cool. My group of friends and I were being looked at like everyone knew we weren't regulars though which was a little awkward.  

The girl who seated us was so so so nice! I asked her name at the end but I totally forgot was it was, but she was so nice and clear when she spoke.
There were 8 of us and all the little cozy couches were taken so we all had to sit on one long couch located towards the back of the building, it was super weird seating because we were lined up and not facing each other.

The menu for all the different types of flavors was extensive so it was fun to choose from!
The group of us weren't planning on ordering more than 2 hookah's, but the girl told us that they give out 1 hookah per 2 people, which worked out I guess with the 8 of us being there.

That night, the hookah's were on special for only $9.99 (we came on a Wednesday)! Usually they are $15.99 I think is what we were told. For each refill, it is $5.99. My hookah got a free refill because I told them that it was my birthday so that was super cool that they did that.

As soon as the hookah's became harsh, we let another guy know and he fixed them right away, this same guy also made us a "special blend" for our free refill, and gave 2 of my girlfriends a free refill..he must have liked them.

Overall, the experience was a good one and my boyfriend only paid $12.99 for one hookah and 2 refills!
Will come back if I'm ever in the area again.

This is a great place to just unwind and hangout with your buddies. The employees are easy to work with and the prices are the best I've seen. Tons of flavors and even more if you want to get adventurous and mix them. Really the best place to hangout if your under 21 haha. Defiantly I would say check out this place, you won't be disappointed.
