WORST HOOKAH PLACE EVER

by GGG78 at Citysearch

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!! HOOKAS ALSO DON'T WORK WELL. WITH RESERVATIONS WE STILL GOT THE WORST SEAT, AND ACTUALLY HAD TO ASK FOR SOME CHAIRS TO SIT ON BECAUSE THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH PILLOWS. THE GUY JUST SAID ONE SEC. AND LEFT AND DID NOT PAY ANY ATTENTION TO GET THE CHAIRS. OVER PRICED! MINIMUM 15 USD PER PERSON! WE BROUGHT A BOTTLE OR SWEET WINE, AND SHE TOOK THE BOTTLE AND POURED US 4 GLASSES....AND CAME BACK AND SAID THERE IS STILL A LITTLE BIT IN THE BOTTLE.....AFTER COUPLE HOURS, WE ARE STILL SIPPING ON THE GLASSES BECAUSE THEY FILLED THEM TO THE TOP. WE DID NOT GET ANY REFILLS FROM OUR BOTTLE YET, WHEN SHE CAME BACK AND SAID BY THE WAY THERE IS NO MORE PORTIN THE BOTTLE!!! WHAT??? WE DID NOT EVEN REFILL!!! NEXT THING WE ARE WAITING FOR THE BELLY DANCER WHICH SHOULD START AT 11 PM, AND DID NOT GET TO DANCE UNTIL 11:30 WITH THE WORST MOVES EVER! WORST MUSIC AND BARELY HEARD...I HAVE SEEN SO MANY BELLY DANCERS AND KNOW WHAT GOOD DANCING IS. SHE WAS WORST AND NOT EVEN QUALIFIED, WITH NO SKILLS...SHE ALSO DID NOT DANCE AT ALL YET THE GUY THAT WORKS THERE HAD THE NERVE TO COME AND TAKE TIPS FOR HER DANCING, AND OF COURSE ALL SAID SHE DID NOT EVEN DANCE...

I WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN, AND WILL NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!!!!

• Pros: NOTHING
• Cons: EVERYTHING

Terrible, dishonest service

by thechitowngirl at Citysearch

Some friends and I were there last night and had a great time. Untill we were getting reading to leave, and checked our bill, there were all these add-ons that we were not aware of. They charged us 18.95 just because we didn't spend the minimum rather than telling us that we were short 18 dollars. We would have been happy to buy more hookah or tea or something. They also charge a ridiculus fee for you bringing your own drink and the fee isn't noted anywhere, it's up to them. They charged us 20 dollars because they said we "had a big bottle of liquor". I would not recommend this place because they have too many rules. also, we werent allowed to charge the bill on different cards. I would recommend House of Hookah to folks, which is a BOYB with no stupid rules and add=ons on your bill. If we hadn't checked the bill and argued with the wait person, we would've ended up paying 50 dollars more for nothing.

Great spot for a chilled relaxed group gathering

i have nothing but good things to say about Sigara. i had just recently thrown my girlfriend a birthday party at Sigara. We had 30+ people come, the host was extremely helpful through every step of the process, more then helpful with any questions and everything else. We searched a few other places but this was by far the best deal anywhere we got the $25 unlimited house well drinks and unlimited hookah all night. all the guests loved the place and are even planning to throw their upcoming parties at Sigara. I read the reviews and was skeptical but my friends told me otherwise and my girlfriend and I are so thankful they hinted this place to us. Also through out the many hookah lounges I've been to I've no come across such interesting flavors and water mixes yet, in one of our hookahs we had a red wine mixed into the water and a special tobacco mix that created such a unique (in a good way) taste that is truly something else. on top of great service, hookah, and atmosphere, you can order food. our party was crazy for the humus, and Sigara has a great open bar and coffee. again i have only the best things to say about Sigara and highly recommend it to anyone, especially big groups. the only down side is parking but you can find some just two blocks down either direction, but it is tough :( but despite that,they will most definitely see us and our friends in the future!!

• Pros: Hookah, atmosphere, great for big groups, great package deals, service!
• Cons: parking
