Legacy Hookah Lounge & Bistro has such a vibrant atmosphere—perfect for hanging out with friends. Great hookah, amazing finger food, and a really fun vibe. Shoutout to Jaseem for the excellent customer service! I 150% recommend it.

It’s been a while since I been to a hookah lounge, and even longer since I been to a good one. I definitely found my go to spot here with Legacy. The service was top notch and everyone was attentive. The hookah was perfect, it never got harsh, and was pulling smooth for hours. The icing on the cake is that they don’t price gauge. Super great prices, attentive service, and awesome hookah. 10/10 will be back.

Here’s a shorter version: --- **⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Hookah Lounge!** Loved this place! It’s my favorite hookah spot in NYC!!! The hookah is smooth & so many great flavor options, and the food was delicious. The atmosphere is relaxed, and everyone—staff is super friendly. Perfect spot to unwind and enjoy good vibes.

This has to be one of the most chill spots in NYC, board games with hookah with the best apps hands down. The mozzarella sticks are the best (don’t believe me try the cheese pull and taste test on it). It’s owner run business and Salman def treats every customer like family.

I will never go to another lounge after visiting the Legacy Hookah! What an amazing atmosphere paired with great hookah and top notch food. Had the pleasure of meeting the owner Salman who honestly takes the lounge experience to another level. Such great energy and vibes all around. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!

Legacy is my to-go spot for shisha, it always comes out so smooth and flavorful. My favorite is mango paan with doomsday and white chai with white paan. The staff are amazing, hardworking, attentive people who will welcome you and help you choose a flavor based on what you enjoy smoking. They’ll always give you recommendations and different flavor combinations that will accommodate to your taste. Their drinks are as great as their shisha! My moroccan tea and masala chai, very enjoyable drinks. The teas come with a cute homemade bear shape honey which you stir in with your tea. Depending on the day, they will play certain spot games or movie on tv. The music is on point as well, they also have a DJ who will accommodate to the vibes of the crowd there. They also tried to decorate the lounge based on the holidays which is thoughtful and attention to detail. Such as this Halloween year, the walls and ceilings were decor with spiderwebs and skeletons hanging on the ceiling. Now to the nitty-gritty and unfortunate part of the lounge being that because it is spot on with their shisha, it brings the crowd together and there is always a wait time to get a table. Plus the location being in Steinway, you never find parking. Aside from that, this lounge will continue to have an everlasting legacy in the heart of Steinway.

I came here for the first time last weekend and it was an amazing vibe and even better hookah! The mix of rap, reggaeton, and Bollywood music was exactly what I needed. It was such a fun and unique atmosphere. The hookah was smooth and flavorful, and their bubble tea is honestly the best I’ve ever had. The staff is super friendly and attentive, and the whole place just has great energy. Definitely my new go-to spot!

Im a creature of habit and usually go to the same place on the strip, but my friend wanted to be somewhere that had more of a vibe than our usual spot. So we decided to give Legacy a try and it was an awesome experience. What stood out the most was how attentive the owner was. He was committed to making sure that we were okay and satisfied with the hookah flavor. They have a big menu that offers different flavored hookahs, food, mocktails, boba tea, and coffee. The decor was great, the playlist was hip and fun, and they offer a variety of board games as well. They have outlets all along the wall, so if you need to catch up on work while being in a vibey environment, then this is the place for you. Will definitely be coming back.

I have been to every single hookah lounge on the strip! And by far Legacy has THE BEST customer service. Everyone that’s works here is so nice, patient and attentive! Music is GREAT. My friend and had 2 hookahs and it was soo good- lasted 6 hours! We also got food, the fries & boneless honey garlic wings were freshly made. If you ever on the strip check out Legacy! Promise you’ll enjoy your experience here. Thank you Legacy team! Stay amazing, see yall soon!

Best hookah lounge I have ever been to. They are nice and friendly. They have good games. Vibe is great!!! Love their Moroccan mint tea and Tropical Blast hookah. Sometimes the wait is long but it’s worth the wait.

Legacy is hands down the BEST hookah spot on Steinway! 🥇 The service is unmatched—Salman, Ibrahim, and the whole team always go above and beyond to make sure every customer feels taken care of. One thing people really sleep on is the FOOD here… it’s SOOO yummy, and their house-made hookah flavors are next level. Try lychee paan with lychee twist and thank me. They also have a great selection of games including LUDO! And their backyard is perfect for hosting a private event 🤩 make sure you call ahead and get your name on the list so you don’t have to wait for a table when you arrive. On weekends, the DJs keep the vibes perfect with fire music, making it the ultimate spot to chill with friends. I bring everyone I know here, Legacy never disappoints!!

I had an amazing experience at Legacy in Steinway! First things first, the music is always a vibe!! From the moment I walked in, the ambience was welcoming, with a warm and modern atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The interior is stylish yet cozy, with a nice balance of comfort and sophistication. The highlight of my meal was definitely the food. The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside, yet soft and fluffy on the inside—absolutely delicious! The burger was cooked to perfection, with juicy, tender meat and fresh toppings that really elevated the whole dish. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and it makes all the difference. As for the service, it was top-notch. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure I felt well taken care of throughout the entire meal. They were quick to answer questions and offer recommendations, adding a personal touch that made the experience even better. All in all, Legacy in Steinway exceeded my expectations. The combination of amazing food, excellent service, and a fantastic atmosphere makes it a must-visit. I’ll definitely be returning for another great meal! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great spot in the area!

Without a doubt the best hookah I've had on the entire East coast. Rasmalai flavor is so smooth. The service was phenomenal even during the busy time, great atmosphere as well. Extra plus, the food was zabihah halal. Ask for their bubble teas as well, wow 👌

Overall the hookah was good but did not like how the owner Sulman came off. He was being very flirty and my friend and I can see how he was being with other girls as well. favoritism and definitely shows that he gives attention to girls that are attractive without giving his full attention to others. If you like feeling uncomfortable you can come here.

Real Reviewer

🤒I literally became Sick after smoking there. 😷 Because i’m tourist i didn’t able tou sue them. Now the harsh reality If you are Indian you will like it, If anyone like beetle leaf flavour you will like it & & & If anyone is #Stupid #Never_try_hookah_before You will like its. I much more & more & more then all those stupid worker there. *¥* They should use real Alfaker or Adalya brand flavour. *¥*they should keep separate Hookah Stand for “Separate Separate Flavour.” Should provide Disposable 1 time Use Pipe with every hookah. *¥* sitting place is very congested
