The prices are fair, they have great music, and the staff is very friendly! They have a great selection of different flavors. Some of them, I can't find at any other hookah bars.The food is pretty good and they have a nice selection of drinks. I definitely recommend to try some of the teas they have.

I prefer this hookah joint over Fusion or Dream. It is relaxing, not too crowded, GOOD VENTILATION, and good ambiance. The Ice Hookah is great, very smooth. The service isn't so great. They definitely need more than 2 servers working a Saturday night. Still, I really like coming here.

Good place to go to, very chill, laid back, friendly service, and of course, a pretty decent selection of shisha.It's pretty ingenious to use a light in a dark cafe lit by televisions and pretty faces, to call service to your table, +2 stars ^.~b+1 star, they actually have some grub, i thought it was awesome to see some good stuff on the menu.  I tried the hommos, was 'ok' served with warm pita bread! they have movies to place and good music, would consider coming here again :)-2 Stars Other places have set the standard, this is few of the places that hookah comes to you unlit, then you must wait the round of coals like everyone else, so it takes a good [maybe?] 15-20mins to get your coal? on top of 5-10mins starting up for the good burn it gives! :)Aside from that it was a great experience! Would love to come here again!

I really like this place!Although, there is one thing I didn't like: the service! It is slow, but still the waiters are very nice.I have one recommendation: They should put more comfortable sofas then tables. I think it will make the place look more like each areas are personal. Meaning, the atmosphere will be more intimate for each groups of people.

There is a new Hidden Cafe location near La Palma/Imperial in Anaheim Hills.  The place is much nicer inside than the older location, although one drawback: You can smoke hookah inside, but not cigarettes anymore!  Bummer.  The prices are moderate, the coal service is fast but it takes a good 10 minutes before the hookah starts smoking marvelously as it should.  Drinks:  Vimto soda goes well with it.  It's an ultra sweet soda they have on the menu for $1.50.  The mint tea is excellent, strong as well.  Food: Cheap!  $3.99 you get a sandwich with meat or falafel in it, plus a side of fries.  Wow.  I had the hummus and it was not great though.

This place was an excellent experience. The staff was very friendly, if you have any questions you just hit a light on your table and they come straight to you. The variety of flavors were good, clean hookahs, great environment. This is a must I have taken many people here and each time  everyone has  a blast.

This is my go-to hookah bar. The atmosphere is relaxed and not too loud. The owners are the nicest guys you'll ever meet. The clientele are all really cool (you don't have to worry about dirtbags and morons showing up and ruining the fun). Coal service is pretty good relative to other places. They make sure it doesn't take long to get your fresh hookah lit up. The flavor selection is pretty broad and Tariq and Abood are happy to offer suggestions and special mixes that they make up themselves. There are quite a few hookah bars in SoCal but this one is my number one.

I think this is the best hookah place in the OC. Two great discoveries in two nights. This place really is somewhat hidden since we were looking around the plaza for it.I was looking at the website, and it's hilarious that they have an anti-asshole policy. +1 for that. When we got here, it was PACKED because of UFC 94. The guy helped us was super chill and got us our couches and tables after moving a few people. In fact, all the workers here are awesome. The cholo coal guy was hilarious and cracking jokes with us. It was also pretty funny that he lost 20 bucks since BJ Penn lost the fight.The place emptied out after the fights and our group of 6 were literally the only customers left. Didn't matter though since service was still excellent. We were there for 3 hours! We just chilled and listened to the Arabian trance music they had on. Super relaxing. New hang out spot since it's open til 4am on weekends.We had three hookahs, which were melon, strawberry and grape. All were fantastic and were never really harsh. It's great how the coals are constantly changed.Overall, this was a great experience here. Love the atmosphere and friendliness of the employees. Hookah was pretty cheap, even though we missed happy hour by 5 minutes. I'm sorry Alwaha, but I'm leaving you for Hidden Cafe.

I've never been to a hookah bar before this and I'm no expert on the like, but it's definitely an experience to try if you're willing. It's SO funny because I'm uncomfortable reviewing this place right now because I don't know the lingo.  LOL. Here goes....We had the cosmo flavor and chocolate-y flavor hookah. Each person in the party gets their own mouthpiece so as not share saliva. Whatta lightbulb moment for me!!  I almost thought part of the experience WAS to swap spit! I'm half-kidding. And the servers (?) were pretty quick to replace/fire up the coal when it was dimming out. It's actually pretty cool to watch.Electro music was playing and vids projected on the walls. At one point though I saw the "Lil Mama Lip Gloss Video. Random. Going in I thought this place was going to be creepy. But turned out to be fun times. I'd totally go back.

My hookah cherry has been popped!  It was a great experience and the staff were friendly, patient and welcoming.  It was dark, inside but the flat screens showing music videos was illumination enough.  It was also really well ventilated...I couldn't smell anything from the table next to us that had 3 hookahs going at once.  I really liked the fact that they put the little light on the table for service, that way you are only bothered when you actually want/need something.  All in all, I would definitely go again if I were to ever find myself in Disney-hell and needed a chill-out spot to get away from all the commercialism.

The Good: It's a chill and relaxed environment to smoke hookah.  It's not as crowded as the one in Anaheim Hills, and usually they play a fun movies during the week.The Bad: They always check I.D.!  I've been there many times and I still do not recognize my face!  Also, the employees do not refill your coals as often as they do at Anaheim Hills.  In addition, I do not enjoy the music they play.Try: the Anaheim Hills Location.  Go read my review of that place.Don't Try: Coming here without an I.D.  They won't let you, unless you're a freaking gorgeous girl.  Then, you got no problems whatsoever.  In life.  :)

Being a veteran Hookah-er, there is nothing I enjoy more than a good evening full of cloudy smoke and intense conversation over a bowl of hot coals and flavored tobacco. My friends and I spent most of our summer doing this and as a result, we spent a lot of money on hookah supplies and also depleted our lung capacity by 10%. Well one day we just got sick of having to prepare our own bowl and clean our own hookah so we decided to try Hidden Cafe, a well known hookah bar. My first thoughts on Hidden when we arrived were that this looked like a perfect place for smoking hookah; it was dark, the place was full of comfy cushions, there was music playing AND there were TVs! I was so excited. After the guy at the door checked our IDs (kind of embarrassing because we're all 21+), we got seated immediately and started looking over the list of hookah flavors. For those of you who are not aware, at Hidden it is required for every 2 people in your group to have a hookah each, so if you've got 4 people you've got to get 2 hookahs. This wasn't that bad since we all hated waiting for each person to take their hits and pass it on, so we settled on a Blue Mist Tangerine (a mix) and a Gummy Bear. The hookah arrived right away and we immediately started smoking. The Blue Mist/tangerine was disappointing, especially because it sounded so delicious. The Gummy Bear was alright, but honestly I've smoked better tasting hookah in my friends garage (right now we have Tequila Sunrise, so delicious!) Anyways, despite the weird taste of the hookahs, we enjoyed our time anyways, until the hookahs started to get really harsh. They load the bowl with coals so it burns a lot faster and stronger so after about 15 minutes I couldn't even take it anymore. My throat was burning, plus the place was smokey all around so I started getting light headed. My friend and I actually had to step outside for awhile because our heads were spinning from the lack of ventilation in the cafe. Overall, the price of the hookahs came out to about $10-$12 each, which isn't too bad but I'd much rather hookah with my friend's pipe because it doesn't make me want to cough out my lungs. The service was great though, so I've got to give Hidden a little credit; it's just not my taste. 2 stars.

This place is great if you want the real Hookah Experience.  The Dim lights make it a cool "Chill out" place.  They have a lot of flavors to choose from and they even work on developing new flavors.  Next time you go, ask for the flavors that are OFF the menu.Get some tea while you puff on the shisha...its very relaxing.
