Ali Mama Cafe

One of my favorite spots to chill in the Silverlake neighborhood. The roots run generations deep here and the hospitality is amazing. They’ve redone the back to have a multi tier view of Sunset Blvd with comfy couches, chairs and pillows throughout. They’re constantly improving and always have a smile to greet you. Come hookah & love this place as much as I do.

Hoookaahhh. No but seriously. This place is awesome.

Not great unfortunately. The best part was just the two resident cats. They were cute and friendly.

I love this place but admittedly it’s not for everyone. They serve mainly two items: Hookahs and tea (plus some soft drinks). The atmosphere is super cool but very particular to more Arabic tastes (I’m not Arab but still love it). There’s backgammons and other board games to play, you can connect to their speaker and play your own music and you can also bring your own food. The guy who runs the place is very friendly and nice and super accommodating. I’m there at least weekly.

My go to whenever I'm in LA! Great hookah and great atmosphere
