    One of the young men tried to charge my bf $40 for hookah when their online menu clearly said $20. He was called out on it and gave my bf a sad story. They have watered down drinks. The black female bartender needs a customer service class. The white male bartender (with long hair) was high off something. The security guard thought he was a real police officer. The food was okay. To sum it all up, never again!!!

    Was there last Thursday for an album release live show that showcased Houston’s fab & famous singers and out of state recording artists. Although sound system was unreliable, show was amazingly curated by talented professionals & vibe was great inspite of the manager and servers bad mouthing the performers to patrons & refusing to fill food & drink orders from VIP tables. I paid for VIP experience & got rude, dismissive, profane accusations from manager & his workers who didn’t seem to know how or want to serve the all-seats filed 30+ crowd, instead beefing with the talent & ultimately turning off mics, lights & calling 911 to shut down the show at 9:55pm. Ladies restroom had no air and I never got my strawberry margarita or boudin balls even though I’d been there since 6:10pm & asked multiple times. The event admin said the manager refused to accept the business credit card, began insisting on 4k cash during the show, and threatened to get his gun! I’m a Houston native professional who attends many area events and have NEVER had this disturbing experience before & won’t go back there! Buyer Beware!!! Note: the Manager response is not true. This undocumented $3000 amount is fictional but the bad service, sketchy sound system, no restroom air and leathery lamb chops wasn’t. I actually heard the manager say they owed 4000 so which is it? If Manager cuts off sound & lights & threatens to shoot, it has everything to do with peaceful paying guests who were inside until police came. Again, manager refused to make multiple orders AND accept payment for CONFIRMED orders BEFORE show was over. Don’t go the Cali htx!!
