"Decent hookah experience, but felt a bit pricy. The atmosphere was also overly crowded, making it hard to relax. If they could somehow work on the pricing and atmosphere, it'd be a more enjoyable experience."

"Great hookah and friendly staff. The patio seating is the best."

"Ayman's Shisha is insanely great. I smoked at many nearby places and paid a lot for a damn Shisha, but at this place, I found the cheapest and best Shisha. Must try. Ambience is great and server is amazing too!"

"Title: Disappointing Changes at Arabian Cafe Hookah quality • The hookah is always on point: smooth pulls, great flavor, and very consistent every time. • If this was just about smoke quality, this would easily be a go-to spot in the area. Temperature and comfort • It is freezing inside; you basically need a winter coat just to sit and enjoy a session, especially in the colder months. • It feels like sitting outside in the middle of winter because the heat is never turned up to a comfortable level. Ventilation and heating issues • The ventilation fights against what little heat there is, so the lounge never actually warms up and the air still doesn’t feel properly managed.[reddit] • Instead of balancing airflow and warmth, the setup makes it drafty and uncomfortable while you are trying to relax. Aesthetic updates vs priorities • The lounge recently updated the look with some really cool café-style wallpaper and a dope neon sign, and visually it works. • That money would have been better spent fixing the heating and ventilation problem, because no amount of décor makes up for freezing through an entire hookah session. Better alternative nearby • There is another lounge around the corner under new management that just renovated, and it shows in how they treat comfort. • They created an outdoor-style vibe with personal seating and heaters, plus a solid ventilation system, so you get that open-air feel while actually being warm and able to enjoy your hookah without shivering."

"Been going to Arabian Cafe for years for Hokkah. Hands down the best in Paterson. They got great Coffee as well. Highly recommended"
