Aladdin’s Hookah Lounge and Bar

My friends come to this place so much. This has got to be their go to spot after work.
I’m not a big fan of hookah but they do have a lot of flavor choices and very affordable. Whenever I come here, I do see some students studying as well so it’s really for everyone.
The ambiance is nice and dark and even though I always think they don’t have enough chairs, they somehow manage to fit all of us all the time. The servers are always nice and attentive. Their cocktails are just your regular mixed drinks. They’re strong! and cheap! Very cheap. So if you’re looking for a cheap place to drink and smoke, I recommend coming here.
Parking is a little bit hard to find around this area though. You would have to park on the street since they don’t have their own parking lot.

The best hookah bar in town! We come here at least twice a week. The staff is always very sweet and regularly check on us to see if we need anything. Our go to hookah is watermelon mint (the best!). They replace the coals often so it’s always burning nicely! And the food is amazing too! Seriously, anything you order will be delicious. (We usually get the Aladdin’s combo and the grilled chicken salad). This is our favorite place and we will always come back!

Nice atmosphere, only thing I’m disappointed with was the fact that this is a hookah lounge, and we didn’t get serviced through out the night after we got our hookah. I saw the coal guy only service the hookahs on the floor once and he wasn’t seen ever again. Didn’t bother getting anymore coals or a refill after that.

One of my favorite chill spots in Nashville. I’m at this place maybe twice a week. The staff is so friendly. They have good happy hour too! The wings and hookah is the best!

This place is one of my top 5 favorite places in Nashville. I enjoy smoking hookah, and this place is just as laid back as me. They have a super sweet happy hour. Also Angela makes a Tom Collins to die for.

Good drink specials (half off beer & wine) during Happy Hour (even on Saturday), and the Hookah was $ 10 during Happy Hour. The bartenders were very nice.

Unattentive staff and the selection at the bar is beyond terrible. The «full» service bar couldn’t even manufacture a blended scotch drink to save their lives!

Beer, a well-​packed hookah that burned for 3 hours and falafels for 20 bucks. A little run-​down inside but exactly what we wanted. It turned into a bit of a sports bar too, with the playoffs on, and a hookah. Great place.

My friend and I were traveling through Nashville on our way to PCB and decided to check this place out. We got there around 10:30 PM and the place was packed. We had to wait for an hour in the cramped entry way with no food or drinks.
We got sat at 11:40 PM and then waited another 15 minutes for someone to stop by our table. After we got drinks and hookah, we were happy. The place is very dive bar, however if your good with tight seating, then this is a great place. The place died down around 1:00 AM and people we being sat right away.
We got melon and mango sheesh with s ice hose. It was delicious and got great pulls off it.
Overall: Good one time stop, but won’t go again unless it’s after midnight or before 9PM.

First real lounge I’ve been to in Tennessee. Everything is wonderful with this place. Wish I could live closer

Went here because it was well reviewed, and it was the worst hookah experience we’ve ever had!
We all had one mediocre drink we didn’t even finish (since it’s a one-​drink minimum per person) and we weren’t even able to finish the house special hookah as two of us started to feel extremely sick. Ruined our nights…
It was not a great atmosphere– almost no space between tables, uncomfortable for any intimate conversation, strangers kept jumping into our conversation. But it might have been worth it for the affordable hookah had we not gotten sick.
First time in several years of going to hookah bars any of us has had a bad experience. Don’t know why this place is so well-​reviewed.

By far the best hookah lounge/​bar in Nashville if not Tennessee! Great atmosphere, AMAZING FOOD, the hookahs are absolutely phenomenal! Must Check them out! Tangerine Dream is my flavor!

I never would have thought that I would consider Aladdin’s my «Cheers» of Nashville. They have the nicest servers who all have somehow remembered my name and go to drink considering how many regulars they have.
The manager is even nicer and he is constantly making sure everyone is comfortable. Also, they have some of the best chicken wings (I know, very random) in Nashville. I highly recommend ordering Aladdin’s combo!

First time trying hookah, we went with our favorite couple one weekend. It’s very small and tight in here. We sat at the bar while waiting for our table which didn’t take very long. Food and drinks were decent. A belly dancer came around to perform. Several flavors of hookah to choose from. We opted for the ice tip (I think that’s the name). But I noticed that the coolness of the ice didn’t allow us to blow out huge puffs of smoke like others. A guy continuously came around to make sure our coals were fresh (sorry, I don’t know the appropriate lingo). All had a good time!

The only reason I’m giving a bad review is because we just had the worst experience with «the guy with a clip board»!! Rude very rude! He told us to stand outside in the rain and doesn’t offer us a seat in the waiting area! I love this hookah lounge! But this guy was very rude with us!!!

My favorite hookah bar in Nashville! Service is fantastic! They are very attentive and nice. Hookah smoked smooth and tasted amazing. We got flower power with mint! Also we got a fruit top/​bowl as well. I will definitely be back when I’m in town!
Edit: as of yesterday, I brought it down from 5 to 3 stars. I have always suggested this place to my friends, and I took my friends there yesterday for the first time, only to leave very disappointed by the rudeness of an employee at this hookah bar. Really sucks because I do like this place, but if you anger my friends, then who will I go with now to your establishment?

I came to Aladdin while visiting Nashville for the first time. My bf and I searched Unilocal for a good hookah spot and we saw that Aladdin had good reviews. One of the main draws is their happy hour where they have hookah for $ 8, as well as very inexpensive beer and wine specials.
Bf and I had the mango and mint hookah with an ice hose. It was great! The pull was clean and the flavor was good. I was also blown away that they offer hookah with fruit, since it can be difficult to find. Between the hookah and the IPA beers, we left Aladdin very happy. We were upset that we didn’t find it sooner during our trip.
I would be remiss if I didn’t also mention the diverse crowd at Aladdin. It was nice to see that. Whenever I go back to Nashville, I will def return.

Correction: Aimee, Rachael, and the lovely and the oh so shy Danielle are some awesome girls. I feel special every time I walk in there. Lmao.

Aladdin’s was my first hookah experience in a while and my first experience with hookah in Nashville. It’s a bit small but we got there right in time on a Saturday to have a short wait. But by 11 the line was getting a little crazy outside. Service was awesome and prices are very reasonable. The ladies kept checking in on us and coals were always readily available. Mixed drinks and hummus were excellent and affordable as well! I will definitely be visiting again!

It’s been 6 months since my last review and I’ve been here way too many times and I still love it. I’ve learned to avoid weekend nights if I just want to relax and have some hookah, so this place is great. That being said, over the past few months, some things have changed. More recently, they added ice hoses, which I’ve yet to try but seems like good for variety. They also changed the coals to coconut from regular coals, which I think is more expensive but I actually prefer the regular ones.
Now what’s the same is most of the staff her, which are nice and helpful and remember what I always get (ha). The tobacco used for the hookah also seems to have stayed the same, seeing as I always get the same flavor (Grape Mint) and it always tastes the same (aka amazing). Another thing to mention, and actually the reason I found this place, was that they have hookah for 8 bucks on happy hour (read: anytime before 8pm). During happy hour they also have house wine for $ 3 and all beers half off I think.
Overall, still a great place for hookah, that gets busy even on some weekdays and Sundays. Also pretty good happy hour deals. Oh, and a belly dancer comes on weekend nights as well.
