The ambience is casual and intimate seating. They offer hookah and good music. They offer a variety of food from Persia on the menu. Drinks are good and variety to choose from. Lighting is cozy. There is a girl who belly dances. Very cool atmosphere. Pricing is moderate. Will go back again.

I love this spot! This was my second time going with the girls and this place never disappoints! Service is great, beautiful decor and ambiance, comfy and cozy and beautiful seating, perfect to take pictures with your friends, great lighting, great music, warm and cozy outdoor seating and that's just the beginning. Hookah is reasonably priced and presentation is 10/10 I tried a mocktail and it was wonderful I will always recommend this place and will always stop by if I'm in the neighborhood be prepared to spend at least $150 if you're spending a few hours there (food/drinks/hookah) but in my opinion it's completely worth it - quality of service and what they offer is priceless 10/10 highly recommend

Sands of Persia has quickly become my favorite go to spot on Steinway street. Right on the corner of a long row of many hookah lounges Sands of Persia really sets itself apart in it's classy decor and beautiful ambiance. This is an amazing place to come with friends or family, or on a special date. Service is always top-notch here I have never been recommended anything bad. The hookah is the star of the show, it is so smooth and well-made, it makes me wanna cry. This is the only place where I will ever order double Apple, because it is so smooth and silky. The food items have always been spectacular. I've had mocktails here as well as their desserts, and they have always been on point and delicious. If you are in Queens, and looking for a classy hookah lounge with immaculate vibes, amazing desserts, mocktails and ambience, as well as courteous service. Please don't look further!!

Absolutely Wonderful..! We were not even planning to go here, but on our way to one of the Hookah Lounges decided to go here instead simply because it looked so Beautiful from the outside, and good thing we did since it was easily one of the best Hookah Lounges I have been to. Ambience was awesome and the whole setup was very welcoming, and the Patio seating was so plush. Hostess and the Serving Staff were all super friendly, helpful, attentive, and quick to respond. Hookah was pretty good (they had Ice Hose too), and the Food was delicious. Drinks are non-alcoholic, so be prepared. We also got to Belly Dancing as a Bonus..!! It was Friday Night, so not sure what is the deal on other days.

Wow what a fun spot, if you like good vibes & great hookah this is the place! We ordered the Diamond hookah and the recommended shisha, it was very strong and flavorful, and the hookah guy came around with fresh coal periodically, very cool. We ordered the butterfly lemonade, gorgeous presentation! But this place has no alcohol so be prepared lol. We also ordered the truffle fries and the Buffalo wings. Wow, the fries were so cheesy and so much truffle oil! Yum. If you want a dope time with great photo opps in queens stop by !!
