It was a great vibe, I went on a Thursday so it wasn’t crowded but the atmosphere was great as we just wanted a romantic night out. The DJ was great and the food was well seasoned. Perfect night out 👌👌

Vango has a nice rooftop and there’s a dj there on Thursdays playing Afro-Caribbean music! We usually don’t get that on a Thursday night, so it’s nice to hear international music at a lounge! Food is great, and the hookah is 8/10 (highest rating I ever gave a lounge) it was free entry on a Thursday and the rooftop is amazing! Would recommend again
Parking: There are 2 parking garages down the street from each other, I use the closest one which is $23 starting 5pm - 5 or 6am

This place is very subpar and overpriced not worth the money. Also the hookah there hurts my throat and chest the first time I thought it was something else. But after going there a second time I realized it was the hookah they provided. Save your money and time.

There was a 10 dollar cover charge which I personally have never had a cover charge for a hookah lounge but whatever. They were dead at 9:30 on a friday and the waitress started seating
us at a nice booth before trying to move us to a dingy table "in case we get busy." The waitress was clearly annoyed we wanted mostly hookah and just one cocktail. When we went to pay, the waitress quite literally stood over our shoulder and watched us write a ten dollar tip (in addition to the included 18% gratuity) before insisting we scratch out the tip and pay her cash instead. We gave her 20 and expected her to return with the rest but just disappeared. Rude service and she basically stole from us. Do not go.

10 dollar cover charge per person and the place was dead. The bill was 68 dollars for a single drink and hookah. 18% gratuity is include but it isn’t explicitly said on the check. As I was signing the check the waitress watched over me as I was trying to figure out if the gratuity was already accounted for or not. Feeling pressured I decided to just tip 10 bucks (we had only been there for about 30 minutes). The waitress asked me to tip in cash instead of with card so I handed her 20 bucks. She took the 20 and didn’t give me back any change. Over $100 between the bill, cover charge, gratuity and the tip I didn’t get change on for a drink and hookah. Definitely go somewhere else.

When I first arrived I really enjoyed the ambience. Bar service was great, the two girls serving were amazing and made sure I was taken care of. Aside from that. I will NOT be returning to this establishment due to a man going up to the servers and began cursing and yelling at then for nonsense. I later learned that he was one of the owners speaking very harshly to the servers. Which he then turned and cursed at me for sticking up for them. I was willing to continue enjoying my night and buying drinks, but after that I will never give those owners a dime.
