Lately, Iâve been coming here every weekend. The service, the food, and the hookah are all excellent. Erin, who stands at the door, always tries to accommodate my special requests and does her best to make sure Iâm comfortable with the seating. Sheâs genuinely very friendly, and being welcomed by her cheerful attitude really improves my whole experience. I highly recommend the place for a fun night out and cozy welcoming environment.

Amazing new Oasis tucked away in Little Italy!
Incredible authentic and homemade Mediterranean / Turkish delicacies that will remind you of Home âš incredibly well-done smooth Hookahs with extensive flavor collections, and an incredibly attentive and knowledgeable staff including the wonderful Ahmet that helped us select all the flavors and new treats we got to try!
Definitely stopping back for Happy Hour and Dinner with more friends to enjoy! đ”đ°
After reading several negative reviews, we were already hesitant, but decided to give this place a chance anyway. Unfortunately, our experience was absolutely terrible. The service deserves a 0/5. We waited over an hour for the starters, and then another full hour for the main dishes. The waitress showed zero concernâshe briefly mentioned that âsomething is wrong with the kitchenâ and then simply disappeared, never checking back or updating us. Even getting basic things was a struggle. We waited around 20 minutes just for a glass of water. The overall feeling was that we were a burden just for being there. As for the food: completely average and not worth the price or the wait. Nothing about the experience justified spending that much time or money. This place lives up to its bad reviews. Definitely wonât be coming back.

Great for a breakfast for two or for a group. Unique food, amazing presentation, and terrific service. Our server, Gamze, was attentive without being invasive, and helpful. The Pistacchio Nero espresso drink is a must.
Every aspect of the dining experience was thoughtfully executed. The food was excellent across the board: our main courses were flavorful and wellâprepared, the appetizers offered a great introduction to the menu, and the dessert options provided a sweet finish without being overwhelming. The drinks were wellâcrafted and complemented the meal perfectly.
What really set Tabac Plus apart, however, was the hookah. The hookah experience here is premium smooth, highâquality smoke with a variety of wellâcurated flavors. Itâs clear they take pride in this offering, and it enhances the overall experience without overpowering it.
Overall, Tabac Plus delivered on all fronts: friendly service, great food, topânotch hookah, and a comfortable yet stylish atmosphere. Itâs a place Iâd gladly return to and highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable night out.

Tabac is such a vibe, and that menu reads like a greatest-hits tour of Turkish comfort food. Dolma + börek on feta is already a win, but adding çiÄ köfte rolls and sucuk pinsa? Thatâs main-character behavior. The roasted almond chicken and truffle chicken really said âstay awhile.â
And letâs be honest⊠an attentive and attractive server named Ahmat? That elevates the whole dining experience by at least 30%. Service like that makes everything taste better đ

On a recent multiple visits to Tabac Plus in San Diego, I was impressed from the moment I walked in. The staff was warm and welcoming, immediately setting a relaxed and hospitable tone. The attention to detail in the atmosphere from the lighting to the décor created an inviting space that felt both upscale and comfortable.
