Habibi Cafe

by Mike P.

Alright I had to write another one since i came back here again for a friends bday. I begged him to go to a diff place since we hated this place. So I went with 5 friends and right when we walk in the lady comes up and says " I understand you guys are here for a party but Its gonna b a 5 dollar charge per person, you can't just sit around and hang out.'' Wow that's all I had to say, we just wanted to smoke hookah. One hookah is good for 5 people. How the hell u gonna charge us 5 per person. That's why u guys don't have any business what so ever. And while we were sitting looking at the menu and talking to friends the server kept eye balling us. So we all left to jasmines next door. This place is wack. i only went there because my friend use to work there even when we did go he…

I love this place. I come here at least one a week! They expanded a while ago, so now they have a sweet lounge! Its very roomy and they have a great music. If you get there when they start gettting busy, the owner DJs! They have a variety of hookah flavors. My favorite Double Banana Guava. My flavor of choice however is mint. I am a minty person. I have had the food there and it is amazingly yummy too. Hummus is a choice if you have never had food there. Chicken Tandori is so good that I find it hard to share! Yvonne makes the best lemon merainge pie, flan, and i could go on.....I have never had one single compliant to say about the service. Yvonne is very friendly and sweet. She is very attentive and helpful if its your first time there. It really picks up Fridays and Saturdays after 10 or so. Its a really great time so network there any time before that. I have met many an interesting people there. They do have belly dancers and she comes out when its packed. speaking of do not park at the big major company building ( i believe its a telephone service co) because they tow!They pool tables, Xbox, games, boxing, from what i remember off the top of my head. Oh its bring your own wine there. IHope I helped!

so i just read these reviews and called the cafe....touche about the woman being super rude...I asked her if we can bring out own wine (as mentioned above by another yelper) and she said yes and there is a charge for $10. Next I asked well do you guys sell bottles (why not maybe that will be a better deal) and she said RUDELY ofcourse NOT. Forgive me - i was just wondering cuz i have been to awesome brazilian restaurants in chicago and seattle where you can bring your wine and you can ALSO purchase from the menu. Anyway, I said not every one knows the fact that you dont have alcohol license - next she says "WELL YOU KNOW NOW! SO ! " hahaha are you kidding me!!! i am not sure if shes middle eastern, because i am - hell the the freaking NO i aint going there. Like let me just drive down to lame old richardson and deal with that crap! Anyway thanks for the heads up michael p.

It was the first time for me to go to an actual hookah lounge and I thought it was pretty neat. They've got tables and they have an area near the wall where there's cushions and lower tables so you can have a more authentic feel to it when you're smoking the hookah. They've got a nice selection of flavors for the hookah. We had the house blend and peach. The peach was a bit... bland, but the house blend was really fruity, flavorful, and had a tiny bit of a licorice aftertaste to it that wasn't too overpowering. Also they have a four persons per hookah rule.They do have a food menu, but all I tried was the hummus, which was   so tasty that you might need to order more bread to finish it off. Some people in our group got some salad that looked really fresh and healthy. Also some had the chicken tandori that looked really spicy but   it was really mild and kind of thick trying to cut into. Additionally all the drinks came in cans or bottles.Our server who you can tell looks kind of old, but still has game was really amiable and helpful with ordering things. Service was awesome. After talking to her a bit, I found out she went to the Miss Universe Contest in Korea in 1980!We got there around 730 ish and was kinda slow but by the time we left around 10 it was really picking up! I believe they're open until about 5am on weekdays and 6am on weekends. Here's another bit of info they also have belly dancers on Friday and Saturday nights starting around 12!
