Dan GrayMarch 27, 2010Hang out at the Casbah for a few hours while you toke on an apple-plum-rose hookah. Grape leaves are a must with an Almaza to wash them down.UpvoteDownvote- Ask for Heather as your server. Has a very genuine, caring personality.Upvote2Downvote
The fries are like crack...one basket sometimes isn't enough! Also there is a drink or food requirement to get a hookah.UpvoteDownvote
Ask for new coals nicely because it will totally take less time.Upvote1Downvote
René LePaulOctober 19, 2015Very poor service. Took almost an hour for appetizers to come up. It's a shame a nice hookah spot with good location has such lousy staff.UpvoteDownvote
Apparently call ahead seating means nothing.... Even with a party of 10... So be prepared to wait. :)Upvote1Downvote
