Visited this place when their ground floor was under renovation. But the sheesha area is cozy and is a really good place to spend time with your friends. Coming to the food, overpriced for sure, but the quality is good and i liked the baby corn dish.
The ground floor area was under renovation during my visit. The shisha spot on the 3rd floor looks more or less like a home theatre room converted into a cafe. Tried the Mix Shisha and it turned out be strictly okay (but cost a whopping 650/-). Half the items on their menu weren’t available. Ended up going for a plain lime juice and a supposedly spicy (not really!) chicken starter. The service is slower than expected. The tv is a good distraction but gets too loud at times. The sad part is, there aren’t any other shisha joints in Kochi, so till something better comes up, this is all we’re left with! instagram.com
Searching for hookah places in Kochi, we were disappointed to know there aren’t many. So we decided to give this one a try.Went there on a rainy evening. The place is HUGE, with a ground floor coffee shop, first floor restaurant, and second floor hookah area. Now here’s the catch. Despite being such a large place and so spacious, this place has absolutely no crowd. We’ve visited this place twice, and both times there were just about two- three other people besides us. The ambiance looks promising at first glance, but as you settle, you realise it’s kind of sad. Both times, we never saw anyone at the ground floor, so as you enter, you wonder of the place is open at all and if there’s anyone around. The first floor has a large room to one side, where the TV is constantly on, and maybe a couple of people will be there. The floor above it is the best area, with sectioned off seating, ideal for hookah. It also has a small pool with large colourful fish in it, bit that also looks sad. This area, however, opens only after 6pm – we didn’t understand why! They have recliners on the first floor, which, though extremely comfortably as such, being recliners, is a really bad choice of seating, specially to smoke sheesha, and to talk to people when you are with someone. One of the recliners was even broken.The service is unsatisfactory, as even the staff is hardly to be seen. You will have to wait really long to place an order, wait for it, and then for the bill. Food: The first time we went, we were told that nothing from the menu was available at that time. This was in the evening time. But they had something else they could give, which they promised would be really good. Left with no option, we went ahead and ordered a kebab platter and two shawarmas. And true to their words, they turned out to be really good! However, the second time that we went, we ordered shawarmas again, which turned out to be bad. I also ordered Dejaje Bil Moutard, which was a form of Arabic chicken kebabs, and they too were dry and flavourless. Coming to the sheeshas – they are certainly nothing compared to what you get in the Middle East, but the ones we had here were good enough, just that they don’t last long because of the inferior quality of coals you get here. Also, only the special sheeshas have unlimited refilling, while the single flavours are refilled only thrice.Overall, the place has a spooky, haunted kind of feel. Even the bathroom is not very well maintained. But despite its flaws, we go here for the sake of the sheesha. You can go here if you want to catch up with someone over long undisturbed hours.
Deserted place, poorly maintained, food is horrible and is way too overpriced!If you’re thinking for a hangout spot to kill time, definitely not the place!P.s don’t try apple flavoured sheesha.. not worth it.
The ambiance is really good and the people who serves the food is really nice. Please​ do visit the topper floor,it is an area u shouldn’t miss.But the cafe is expensive. And u get sheesha here.Overall a good experience.
The ambience needs to be a little bit more cozy and the shisha was mediocre as was the service. We had to keep calling the staff who was hidden behind his table the whole time to change the coal. Now here’s the problem with having inexperienced staff to handle shisha, it gives you a solid headache because that coal has to be changed without is having to beg for it! Horrible headache i had to deal with the whole of the next day. Never going back.
Sheesha & Arabian FoodDecent place tucked up in a a small road across bannerji roadHad rented the place along with my friends for new yearsThe manager then, Charlie was very helpful !
