Sultana Cafe

Both locations are horrible

Terrible place, it is not fun, the hookah tastes nasty and they're way over priced. Don't go!

THE WORST HOOKAH PLACE EVER!!

Upon arrival we got this rude waitress with big boobage and dark hair.
we were all trying to decided what to order since it was a group of 5.
She was so impatient even though the place was dead only another table next to ours.

After ordering we waited for a long while to get out hookahs. Let me remind you the place was not even busy!

After a while of being there two of my friends and I decided to use the bathroom and we went in together like other girls do.
The bathroom was small and it had a broken glass with the pieces of glass sticking out. literally any one could have gotten hurt.
The bathroom was dirty and it did not look like no one had cleaned it. So since the bathroom was so small and it was 3 of us we had to juggle to use it. All of the sudden some one started banging really loud on the door. we had told them to wait a couple of mins because we were trying to do our lady business in there. after more banging and yelling for us to get out THEY UNLOCKED THE DOOR AND OPENED THE DOOR WIDE OPEN. ONE OF MY FRIENDS WAS USING THE BATHROOM AND GOT EXPOSED!! ( this was all done by the disrespectful waitress or manager). My friend was in such a shock that she dropped her bag causing her phone to fall out and end up with a broken screen.
At the end of the night after being treaded with absolute disrespect and rudeness we decided to leave. Not once did she apologized. when we got the receipt we noticed that we were being OVERCHARGED for two hookahs and redbull..
overall this has been the worst experience I've had! They were beyond rude and DO NOT care about the customers at all!! there are many decent places in Astoria but this one is even below standards.
I also forgot to mention that she threatened to call the cops when we were trying to explain she had over charged us. She didn't even bother explaining saying "she had a lot of work to do" and just left us with the security guard to handle it. I wish I can give no stars for this SHITTY place because a business is about having happy customers so they can make the business successful but obviously these people can care less. SO WARNING: DO NOT STEP IN THAT GARBAGE HOLE!!

I remember the first time i met the monkey owner of this place on 420 when I was high, he was sitting outside. We stared at eachother with hostility. I ended up chilling here for an hour or 2. Time was going slow because I Was high. My friend and I had some cake that costed 5 dollars each.. I say costed because they no longer offer cake.

Not too long after, the owner would get angry due to the fact that my friends and I would go to another hooka bar with some of the people we met from his cafe. He would pretty much spy on us and then throw it in our face as if we hurt his feelings... What a childish monkey.

While I was there, the owner framed his bouncer employee by putting marijuana in his jacket and calling the police. The owner did this to his own employee like Denzel Washington in training day. The owner was never ever rude to me, but I saw him do madddddddddddddd disrespectful things. One time he reserved half a used strawberry banana shake. Another time, he attempted to have sex with some guys girlfriend while her boyfriend went to the bathroom. He also tried to drive some drunk guys car, this isnt illegal but the fact that he did it specifically when the dude was drunk is just sleezy. It would have been fine if he didnt get caught doing this. But he did.

So aside from spying on you, disrespecting you, praying on you, and stereotyping the crowd, this is a terrible hookah bar.

As a terrible hookah bar, the hooka isnt very good. But it sure as hell used to be. That part is true. The hookah used to be amazing. At some point, the hookah started to suck. Currently, it still does.

Also the crowd here has died out for the most part. In 2008-2009 this hookah bar had a very preppy and sexy crowd, and that has died out as well.

Other people attest to the many cons of this hookah bar, I have the ability to say that their testimonies are true. Do not come to this hookah bar unless you secretly have 5 jacked up security guards ready to beat the monkey owner up. And that is that, obviously do not come here for good atmosphere.

Rude and very disrespectful staff. I will not go there again. I would not recommend it to any one. I would defiantly fire the waitress and the guy at the door
