The interior is nice, finding the place was a bit rough. The staff was generally polite if a bit slow but that's okay, it's not really an atmosphere that puts you in a hurry. The food was very good and the tea was nice as well.
My only complaints about the hookah bar are hookah and shisha related. At first I didn't notice it but I've went there multiple times over the last few years and it just kept coming back. My complaints are the prices are expensive. There is no reason a standard bowl of shisha should run you $15 when you can often times get 250 grams (around 30 bowls) for that same $15 if you were smoking at home. Their selection of shisha is largely starbuzz, social smoke and Al fakher. Not the greatest quality selection by any means, but their audience is generally college students and people who only smoke on occasion that don't know any better. Which leads into my next complaint. The upkeep of the hookahs themselves. It's like they don't ever thoroughly clean them causing what's known as ghosting. Where flavors from the pervious use are left behind in the stem and hose and after the first ten minutes the flavor your ordered starts to get muddy by all those remnants and you're left smoking an old woman's perfume rather then what you ordered. But my main problem are the coals. They use quick lights which are prone to inducing headaches because of the lighter fluid in them and more carbon monoxide production then a natural coal would. I've asked them on multiple occasions if they could use natural coals because quick lights give me headaches and their response has been, "we sell them in our shop but don't use them for the store."
It's a fun place with a nice atmosphere, good for meeting a friend from out of town that doesn't smoke. But if you know what you're doing, this place won't appeal to you for very long.

I've come here since I was 19. My favorite place to just unwind and enjoy girl time with my friends. The staff is always friendly and super helpful when trying to decide what new flavors to try.

One of the best Hookah place in town. I also like their desserts, it is authentic. Also they serve a really good falafel. I would suggest a better ventilation but this is a side note.

Such a fun place to play games and hang out with friends! It can be pretty loud at times, but the experience is a good one. My only hesitation is that their hoses were pretty clogged!

Amazing place if you are looking to relax and chill with friends or on your own. Well kept and maintained. The service is amazing. Very reasonable price. Must try Chai.

First off they don't offer any type of alcoholic drinks or even let you bring your owns into the hookah bar. The staff was just plain rude. If you're in the area I would recommend going to Cafe Shesha instead. We went to google places while at Aladins, found Cafe Shesha, and the staff seemed friendly. At that point we just left.
Note to Store Owners: When your staff is rude to the point of scaring off customers, your business won't do very well. Just a tip...

Went here on Sept. 10, 2016 with my friends. A African-American male came out and checked our IDs . When my friend didn't have her ID but had documents with her name on it we were taken through the third-degree . I don't know if we pissed the Idian man of by trying to get in but the black guy that was there told us to wait a few minutes to check but the Idian guy started snapping saying on " The black guy doesn't work here were just helping him out " 🤔🤔. Overall the service we received was fairly rude & if you aren't employed at a facility you shouldn't be checking IDs. Seems like a nice place to hang out if we could've got in .

Great atmosphere to chill, eat food and have some tea. I frequented this establishment for years and pop in occasionally now. Much more authentic than any other Sheesha bar in town.

Best sheesha/hookah cafe in Tallahassee. They have 120 different shisha flavors. The falafel here is amazing. Aladdin also has middle Eastern desserts such as knafe, ma'amool, baklava. They serve different kinds of drinks: Arabic, Turkish and American coffee, frappé, 35 different tea flavors, bubble tea, italian soda, and smoothies. The prices are the cheapest in town. Only here you can find traditional middle Eastern shisha flavors. You can buy your own hookah and its accessories.
The customer service is the best. The owner, Maher, is a very nice guy and he is very friendly. He always greets customers and sometimes he provides complimentary drinks or food.
