First time coming to Bottles & Chimney on a Friday night. At the door, there was a $20 cover for men while women got in free. When you walk in, there’s a patio area first, then the main indoor space. The decor was really nice and gave a good first impression. However, we weren’t greeted right away and had to figure things out ourselves at first. While looking for a table, a waitress came over and explained that booths had a $500 minimum and the middle tables were $200–$250 minimum. Since it was just the two of us, that didn’t make sense. She mentioned we could sit on the patio with no minimum, but the issue was everything (DJ, bar, atmosphere) was inside, and the patio was completely empty. The only other option was standing at the bar, which isn’t ideal if you’re planning to order food. We ended up sitting on the patio, and it was literally just us out there. We ordered hookah, lamb chops, chicken kabob, two bottled waters, and two lychee mocktails. The total came out to about $176. Unfortunately, the food was under-seasoned and the portions were small for the price. The hookah was okay, but I’ve definitely had better. The music inside was catered mainly to a Latin crowd, and no other type of music was really played, which may or may not be your vibe depending on what you’re looking for. Overall, the place looks nice, but the setup and pricing don’t really cater well to smaller groups, and the experience didn’t quite match what we paid.

The bartender Azia she was beautiful, knowledgeable, friendly and patient. This was my hubby and I first time as we were celebrating my bday🎉 The food was great, drinks were great, hookah was good until I got sick 🤢. I think the hookah didn’t sit right with me and the drinks. I started to feel nauseous, we left and 2 mins into the drive had to pull over to vomit. We got the lamb and salmon. I think we will be back but I will not get the hookah😅
Came to try the food. It was ok. Everyone was nice. I didn't know it was a hookah bar...lol. It was definitely a new experience.
Was looking for a quick stop to eat a meal other than fast food. The name was curious and Mediterranean (sure, why not I need healthy) From the moment you walk in you fall in love with the ambiance and the decor. They have a variety of special drinks, I went with a dirty Martini- nothing fancy. Then, the apps, we had the dolmas and the baba ganoush were delicious and then the main course… lamb chops with saffron rice 🤯 the spices were on point and the lamb cooked to perfection. Definitely a repeat visit is in order next time I’m in the area. Delicious 😋
Pros - great service, food was amazing, the shrimp kebab was so well flavored and so were the fries. The one drink I had (a lemon drop) was strong. Cons - OUTRAGEOUS prices. 6 shrimp and a pile of fries were $30, which is steep enough, and then they charged an automatic 20% gratuity. Felt like the gratuity was our punishment for choosing a spot that had only like 5 other patrons at midnight on a Saturday. Also the DJ/music was awful - just random, different songs until he left at 1 AM. If not for the prices, I would be back to try the salmon which was $32 but after the gratuity would be nearly a $40 plate!
