Crema's Take

This Glendale hookah lounge masterfully balances premium hookah with a thoughtful food program, earning consistent praise for both their carefully crafted flavors and attentive service that makes the space feel unhurried and conversation-friendly. Whether you're dropping in for happy hour appetizers like teriyaki shrimp or settling in for a full meal, the kitchen delivers with surprising consistency—reviewers have genuinely struggled to find a weak point on the menu. It's become the kind of neighborhood spot where the hookah is excellent, the staff remembers you, and the crowd stays just right for actually enjoying time with friends.

It’s hard to find a place that offers good hookah AND good food - Cafe Rich succeeds at both. Whether you’re snacking or having a full meal, I have yet to identify an item on the menu that isn’t good. The drinks are creative and tasty, and the entire place is laid back. It gets pretty busy at night so I tend to go before 8:30pm.

Respectable and Trendy Hookah Lounge. Moderately priced and really good for Happy Hour which is earlier on in the nights. Appetizers were pretty good, ordered the Teriyaki Shrimp, Cappuccino, Tea, and Mango Lemonade. Hookah was the standout, they make a really good house blend, ended up doing two different flavor packs throughout the night and both were high quality and smooth. Would definitely recommend.

This hookah lounge has become a favorite of ours so quickly. The hookah is really good, so is the food, the wait staff is attentive and courteous and it does not get too crowded, it’s great. There is indoor and outdoor seating and the chairs are very comfortable which is not what you normally get at a hookah lounge. We’ve tried a variety of the food available and they are all so good, specially for a hookah lounge, it will be tough to beat the food at this spot. They recently started having a DJ come in during the weekends so it has some sort of a loungey feel to it, it’s great if you are more interested in that sort of thing. Otherwise the ambiance is more on the quiet side. The service is so good, the ladies that work here are very attentive and mild mannered, they don’t push you to order more or anything, they’re very cool and pleasant to be around. Overall this place is great, we have been coming here for a while now and plan to keep coming here in the future.
