Review Summary

Arabesque is described as a lively, stylish spot with a warm, friendly atmosphere that makes it easy to relax with friends, enjoy good music, and linger over the shisha and food. Guests frequently compliment the shisha for rich flavors and smooth draws, and the menu is noted for tasty items such as lamb and fresh salads, with the overall food quality earning steady praise. The service is often highlighted as a strength, with staff who are patient, professional, and attentive, contributing to a welcoming vibe and quick, courteous interactions. The ambiance and decor are described as modern and appealing, creating a comfortable setting for a night out or a casual gathering. While most experiences are positive, some reviewers report less favorable moments such as being asked to leave to free up tables, questions about tipping, and occasional variability in shisha performance or wait times; after midnight table access may require bottle service. Overall, the place is seen as a standout for shisha in Montreal, a place that many visitors return to for its consistent energy, good music, and friendly service.

This is one of the more upscale hookah lounges we've been to .. tables with the holes to hold the hookah are lovely! Good atmosphere, decent hookah, good drinks, good service, little pricey but no big complaints here

I had a disappointing experience at this establishment. Upon arriving in sandals, the security staff refused me entry, & I was forced to buy sneakers to get in. However, I noticed that many people inside were wearing sandals. Once inside, we ordered normally. However, around 11 PM, the same security guard came to force us to buy bottles of alcohol, threatening to kick us out, even though we had just ordered sangria. I wonder now if sangria is no longer considered an alcoholic drink here. The lack of respect & poor communication from the staff really ruined our evening.They do not respect their customers; I am referring to both the security staff & the management. If you have the patience to tolerate all of this & more, this is the place to go.
