Best sheesha in town by far! Everything about my visit—from the food and drinks to the shisha and the service—was top-notch. The two guys there were super friendly and made the whole experience even better. To anyone reading this, I highly recommend their chai. It’s soooo good!

I’ve been going here since it opened way back. Great service, and atmosphere to hang with friends, and also to get work done (probably bring headphones if you’re like me). Hookah is great, and the folks managing it has always been great too.
