Mina Lounge

It was fine I guess. Though if you want Well drinks make sure you say it over and over again or you'll get upcharged. Nearly $300 for two people is insane. I'm visiting from NYC and have never paid that much for 6 drinks and 2 hookahs in my life. The atmosphere was fine but not worth that much.

As a hookah enthusiast, I would give this place a full 5 star review. The vibes are amazing, the prices are very reasonable, the have a great atmosphere and a full bar. They actually go down to the actual hookah smoking experience by providing essentials like ice in the base, fruit top bowls, and even milk in the base! You could also ask for liquor or wine in the base which definitely elevates your hookah experience. Everytime I’m in SD, this is the spot!

This is the worst place I have ever been to. Last night after standing in the line in the rain, when I got to the front of the line, I tried to wave one the workers who could have been the owner (he was wearing a lounge shirt) or just a snobby staff to ask what's the cover but instead of helping their patron, he looked at me and just ignored me cause he was too busy talking to who looked like his buddy. Not only that when he saw me, instead of being courteous, he instead just waved his hand to go away. How rude as a worker. I don't know how people run their businesses in San Diego but that is a horrible attitude. And I just wanted to ask him a quick question since I saw him go back and forth talking to the bouncers and saw him free for a moment and it was raining. Otherwise I would have never even asked. It's not like I was asking him for a favor. FYI, I just ended up leaving right after that. I don't appreciate spending my money at a place where they don't treat all their patrons equally. Stay away from this place.

After few months my wife convinced me to come back here. I already don't trust their shady billing practice ($2.00 charge for a "neat" drink), especially mostly a young crowd in here and too intoxicated and not paying attention to their over charged bills. Me and the wife ordered 3 drinks total, just straight up whiskey and our bill came to a total of $107 with a 14% gratuity added which is insane for drinks. Was told its explained on their website that any bill over $75 the gratuity is added but no one looking at a website when walking up in there. Folks..steer clear of this place if you don't want to be ripped off.

Kind staff, well prepared drinks, and elegant interior. Mina Lounge offers a wide variety of drinks and signature cocktails/mocktails. The food menu is quite small as they focus more on drinks and hookah. Also, by far the fastest served and most flavorful hookah I've enjoyed in San Diego! The lounge has plenty of flavors to choose from along with multiple fruit combinations. Highly recommended for large or small groups, business professionals, and hookah loving patrons alike. ✨👍🏾
