I’ve worked as a hookah server in NYC for 3 years and smoke hookah every day.From the service to the hookah flavor this cafe definitely sets the bar high.I drive from Queens New York to Cafe Ra three times a month to enjoy the hookah and vibe
We had their house special Hookah and it was really good. We asked pineapple head but she suggested it will be sweet if we combine both. That was a good suggestion and that was the staff are knowledgeable. We asked for a frozen pipe, as they didn’t have it she helped having ice at the base and that gave smoothness.They changed the coal and cleaned the head when required and hence I say their service is good as well.The rates are not expensive but they add 18% gratuity by default. Their Turkish coffee was good as well. They serving area is both inside and outside and we sat outside as it was full inside.Yes if you are hookah lover and in this area, I suggest trying their hookah.
Great local spot to smoke hooka and hang out with some friends. Outdoor seating in the spring summer and great service.
This is a very laid back relaxed environment to enjoy a nice hookah and a drink. They have TVs all around so you can watch sports. They also have outdoor seating which is nice because hookah lounges can get really hot and smoke filled. Very reasonably priced, hookahs are about $12-$18 depending on the type of flavor and hookah head you get.
Good service. So unusual for a hookah spot! Lol very chill vibe
Best hookah spot around. Hands-on ownership. Good times always!
Terrible management, never coming back
The server was really nice and the hookah was amazing. Nice little chill spot to unwind after work or to just hang out at. Definitely will be going back soon now that I know about it.
A vry comfortable place to unwind
Very relaxed place with great Turkish coffee and hot chocolate. Very large selection of hookah flavors and easy to understand if its your first time going. Staff is always nice and helpful. It is cash only but they have an ATM inside.
Awesome little place to chill out & smoke your worries away.Nice clean, well maintained spot. Plenty of parking & good service.
I love the staff, the service and this clubs atmosphere. Its easy to spend hours here smoking, playing chess and chilling
Food is good but ambience is 👎
If anyone living in Old Bridge and East Burnswick, highly recommend this hookah lounge as they serve both hookah and beverages.Their hookah was smooth and love their in house beverages like lattes, juice,tea, etc.Just for FYI, they only accept cash only as personally they should accept credit cards as well.
Nice and cozy place. Staff is friendly. But they open too late [7pm] and close too early [12am] on the weekdays and till 2pm on the weekends.
The best hookah experience you will have ever.
Chill spot for some good teas and coffee, as well as hookah. Will be back sometime
I had a great time checking this place out. The hookah here was the best Ive had and you can tell they clean their hookahs often as it never burned the entire time I was there. I would highly recommend this place to my friends. The server was very nice too.
I am a regular and its perfect facility. very casual and relaxed outing. exactly what I need a place I can chill any day of the week. weekends are busy but they make it work. maybe pricier a little bit but worth it
Best hookahs around. The hookahs in a fruit head are delicious and last a while. The coffee selection. Is vast and compares to any other coffee location. The only downside is cash only. So be prepared!
Very weak tasting Hookah and not so friendly staff. Not saying theyre unfriendly. The owner is usually there and only stays in a corner with people he knows and kept gazing our way. Either come by and say hello or stop staring. Its extremely creepy. As for my comment of the staff being not so friendly at least most places say hi and check on you at least once. Not a single welcome or checkup. And it was fairly dead... so its not like she was busy. Didnt order any food so cant comment but the drinks (juices and smoothies) we received ranged from cool (not cold) to room temperature. The price was about average for this area.
Very friendly and warm place too chill after a long hectic day at work. Very friendly and nice staff. Hookah was way better then other places I have been too.
My favorite place over the past 5 years, way back when it was called isis. Hookah is usually good and the place is chill. Prices are good too. I like the arabic music as well.
Hole in the wall sheesha place perfect for catching up with friends
Good place to hang out. Great tasting hookah. downside is theres no food served here.
Hookah is good. They are not cheap when it Comes to packing the hookah up. Drinks are wide selection
Amazing experience everytime, great staff and overall the best hookah quality
Love this place. Excellent hookah and reasonable priced. Unfortunately cash only and no food.
Love this place the hookah is the best in terms of session quality and price. The atmosphere is amazing its a great place to go hang out for a couple hours and talk with friends
Casual and quite place. You will find many regulars coming here.
Great music, cozy place to chill and relax after a long day or to catch up with friends
Not a good place to go with family. Hooka is really good tho
Love this place so much I dont want to leave them a review. Wait staff is excellent. Sheesha is priced right. Ambiance is stellar. Music is perfect volume. TVs are clear and in HD. **THEY ARE CASH ONLY !!** Call ahead to reserve a booth. Love this spot. Shhhhhhh., dont tell the millenials.
Good place to relax with friends. Good Hookah, friendly staff, good service.
Been going here for years, good hookah selection for reasonable prices. Good environment too.
Not a bad place.. Rather nice atmosphere, music is a little loud and the hookah isnt the strongest tasting stuff. Oh and theyre are alot of rules (cant move the coal yourself, cant sit on the couch unless your a group of 5, only cash ect.) I didnt enjoy their teas though. Not the best place, but I can definitely see myself going again.
Used to be a great hangout. recently went back for the first time in a couple years. Was treated poorly the first time, but cause of my history there decided to give it another try. Second time was even worse. As a group of 3 we got there 7pm on a Saturday there were exactly two customers there so we asked to sit on the couches and were told they were only for groups of five or larger. Being that the place was empty we asked to sit there acknowledging that if a group or 5 or more came in we wouldnt hesitate to move.Another group of 3 comes in and now we were asked to move for them!! All while there was an empty couch sitting next to us .Which we were informed was reserved for the owner. When asked to speak to the owner he wasnt even there. We were there about an hour and no one came around to blow out or replace our coals once. Now after being harassed about the seating in a still half empty café, we asked for the check, which conveniently has gratuity included on it. Being that we were treated so poorly we disagreed with the 21% tip that had been added and spoke with the tardy, ego-maniac owner who didnt flinch at his bogus policy. WILL NOT BE BACK HERE EVER AGAIN and would never recommend it to anyone from now on!!! Save your money! there are much better places in the area.
Worst hookah! Liquid kept coming into my mouth, I had to return it 3 times! The 4th time it still kept doing it but I was too fed up to return it again. Service was super slow despite the fact that the place was empty, still ridiculous gratuity was added to our bill even though we had to get up every time we needed the hostess. Needless to say, never going back!
Good hookah good environment!
Extremely over priced, hookah and 2 drinks $60-80 bucks!?!?!? - theyre also cash ONLY and it doesnt clearly say this anywhere. its located in the middle of East bumblefukk nowhere, so youre forced to use this shady ATM machine inside after youre ambushed last minute when you get the check with Sorry we only accept cash, overall it sucked....
Services good, hookah was right on the money.... Just dont order the lattes
Best Hookah lounge in NJFriendly and quick serve .
Nice and friendly place.
Out of all the hookah places around East Brunswick, this place is probably best? IDK, its complicated in NJ. They have tea and hookah :)
Hookah is alright, prices are high. Every time I come, the mandatory gratuity amount seems to fluctuate, goes as high as 23%!!! Only reason I am giving it a 2/5 is cuz I lost my viginity here.
Had a great time good tasting hookah
Hookah wasnt packed right, No food & wasnt able to bring any in, on top of over priced tea & coffee.
Reading the menu, way to many rules, not to do this, not to do that, not very nice...A BIG TURN OFF...
What a great experience!
Best place in the area
Not so good shisha
Nice ambience.
Best Hookah in NJ!
Nice place
Too smokey
Amazing ambience and friendly peot!
