Awesome atmosphere and a great entertainment factor! Be prepared for slower service though. Hummus was great and so was the hookah . Main entrees are a little flavorless. Would recommend the gyro .
Lots of bad things I could say, but honestly the good food, great hookah , and awesome atmosphere outweigh all of the bad. The belly dancer is fun. And there are Beautiful ppl everywhere in there. Go!
The is a good hookah place in the outskirts of Atlanta. The service can be a bit slow, so be patient. The food is good.
Pretty busy on weekends, can get pricey with drinks. The appetizers were tasty, but there's other more quality hookah lounges in Atlanta. Good if you like to dance to music from the early 2000's.
Great place for getting a taste of different cultures. And if you like hookah , this if the perfect place
A hot spot in Decatur! Good food and music . Surprisingly good!
Great for a group of family or friends. You sit comfortably on the floor while eating yummy food and if you are lucky - spectate the belly dancer !
Nice ambience and of course the belly dancing . Make reservations and try the hummus , kebabs and green apple hookah .
Love the atmosphere. The cafe fire runner and hummus with extra spices are da bomb.
First time trying Mediterranean cuisine . Loved it! Best food! Great atmosphere. Great time!
Falafel isn't gluten free ; ask for veggies with hummus . Order a hookah and chai and enjoy belly dancing show .
There is no justifiable reason to play the music so loud when the belly dancer is out. We're already trying to be quiet and pay attention. Ouch!
If you go, you have to dance . It's the best Saturday night without a cover charge .
love the vibe. Good music , food and hookah
Plan to spend several hours here with hookah , live entertainment, and Turkish cuisine .
This is more of a hang-out place than a good dinner restaurant . Appetizers are good but the kebabs totally lack flavor. Just enjoy drinks and the belly dance show , don't count on the food, though..
Fun place. Lots of character. Take your time and spend a couple hours there.
I just wasted $20. I had Shish Kabob , it was okay. Edible. I had better back home (Philippines) from a corner food stall . I can cook better than this. What a shame. Bad service too. 👎
I LOVE this place!!! Jamey is the best bartender ever!! Tip him WELL or go to hell!!
Strawberry Hookahs are great! Chicken Leg Kabobs are delicious!
Great food, entertainment and a hookah !
Good music , food, drinks, hookah n belly dancers !! Nice place
Everything is good, but the Istanbul pizza is amazing!
All about the atmosphere. The food is good, but you're paying for the experience.
Great during the week. But avoid it on the weekends. $5 parking with no sign or warning. Sort of want Turkish food not an ultra lounge . Ew.
Apparently, licking the sweat of the bellydancer is frowned upon. WHO KNEW!?
Great food and great atmosphere, love this place!!!!!
Spicy Ezme & Shish kebobs are amazing!
their lamb pizza is amazing!
Want to dance and have smoke head here
Watermelon hookah an belly dancing on weekends
Try the Turkish Tea
Try the chicken kabob
The best gyros . Not on the menu but they will make them for you if you ask.
Dinner and Belly Dancers . Can't go wrong.
Kayak pizza is awesome!!
Good to chill and smoke hookah . Food was quite bland. Also valet was extremely musty and left the scent in my car.
Meze plate and hookah .
Maybe some of the worst service I've ever had at a restaurant . I had a Groupon and still feel like I overpaid. Don't know that I'll give them a second chance...
I did not like this location. The service was horrible & the food mediocre. The Kennesaw location is much better.
Too much fun!!!!!!!!
Still waiting 4 food.Interesting entertainment...
Is there a polite word for terrible?
That was the awful environment + shitty food. I HATE IT
Spicy Chicken Koobideh and Chicken Tikka are the best here! - Satyam Padmaja
The salmon was amazing!!! - K Nice
One of the best in the city. Top notch attention. Never wait in line because the managers actual ring groceries too. Super friendly and helpful. Variety is a plus and always well stocked. - Glenda Fields Burrus
