A for ambiance. The stairs need help. More railings. But overall it was a nice place to smoke hookah. It's 35.99. Drinks are 4 dollars like kerns and soda. The service was great. He kept the coals hot. The grape mint flavor hookah was nice. We had a good time there. Will go back.

Hands down has to be one of my FAVORITE hookah spots in SoCal. The service was amazing and attentive to us. The hookah was FANTASTIC! The tea was also great. The cats that roam around were adorable. The outside sitting area was so cute and can def fit a larger group! The music was 10/10, all of the old Arabic classics. This place is authentic and I LOVED it. I would highly highly recommend and I will be coming again soon :)

My friends are regulars and I come here often to hang out. Every time I come I have the best experience. They have the best coffees, really good quality hookah, and always a good vibe. The service is always top notch and everyone is so kind. Definitely a great spot and hidden gem in the city.

My wife and I stumbled upon Ali Mama Cafe after having dinner across the street and it quickly became one of our favorite spots in the area. When walking in we took the stairs all the way to the top outdoor area and we were greeted by the cutest and friendliest cat Primo. He spent some time with us and we couldn't have been happier. The owner (I believe) was very very very friendly and accommodating. He turned on the heaters for my wife, let us play music on their Bluetooth speaker, and even offered to let me charge my phone. It felt like I was visiting a family members home. With the outdoor lights, comfortable seating, and Sunset Blvd view the ambiance was perfect. The watermelon peach hookah was good and never got harsh or died out even after a couple hours. The African tea and tea latte were also very good and you can tell they were homemade. Overall we love this spot and you will too if you appreciate friendly service, good ambiance and hookah. We're definitely looking forward to coming back here and bringing some friends!
