Amazing spot to hangout with your friend. Great food! Amazing decor and ambience!! Uber cool shishas!!
Visited the Smoqoholic restaurant and loved everything here. Its a very classy, chic and colourful restaurant with very modern interior design, must say quite impressive.
We started off with Rainbow Dynamite shrimps,the taste, the presentation, everything very impressive about it. Basil chilly chicken tikka, it was well prepared by the chef. It came in skewer, had delicious flavours and spice, well marinated and the portion was good. For main course we tried Egg fried rice and Stir fry Chicken Manchurian, a perfect comb. This is a must try for all the indo-chinese lovers. These manchurians were absolutely delectable.
Had a great experience in this place. The food was great. The shisha was very smooth. The staff were attentive.
Located in Karama, Smoqoholic Seafood Restaurant & Cafe specializes in seafood, food fusions and shisha. The restaurant is exceptional in their presentation of food. You can also compete with friends at board/card games, many tables contain a concealed compartment for games. While dining enjoy watching football matches, a few tables have individual screens.
The best sheesha in town, with a great ambience and delicious food
One must try this place for sheesha and food.. the aioli chicken and chicken biryani plus pasta and chat pizza is a favorite waiting for it to open soon
Delivery was on time
Packaging was in a polythene pack which can be changed. Individual items were in good plastic containers. Food arrived hot.
My orders were Peas pulao at 33 dhs, Salt and pepper mushroom fry at 31 dhs and Stirfried Shrimps dry fry at 39 dhs.
All the items were very very tasty and genuinely awesome gastronomically. Shrimps were large and plump and fresh. Mushroom chunks were delicious.
The peas pulao was made in ghee and while hot, was great. Large quantity.
At the great discount on offer now, the whole experience has become extremely value for money. I was even given a complimentary brownie.
Much recommended.
Staff here is very friendly.. shisha is great.. great place to go if your looking for good food and shisha at a reasonable price.. Especially staff Sajan makes the best shisha.... food is also really good.. must visit 👍🏻👍🏻
@smoqoholic Anyone for Pani Puri shots 🤪
You’d easily be forgiven for thinking Smoqoholic is only about shisha.
In fact there is a whole lot more!! Chicken panipuri is a must have, it sounds wierd but OMG the food is delicious 🤤 Crisp puris bursting with goodness of boneless Chicken & the tangy dips... Must try! 👌
SMOQOHOLIC is also a cool Sheesha Lounge with some great atmosphere vibes you would enjoy experiencing... Visually delightful lighting & atmosphere!!
Lovely place to spend some quality time with both friends and family. They are good for not just sheeshas as but also lovely atmosphere and food. I specially loved the appetizers the standout being mutton chilli and signature drinks. Definitely revisiting soon
Smoqoholic is an ultra chic place with the nicest of staff and ambiance! This sheesha cafe brags to have their own SPECIAL sheesha equipment and flavours beloved by one and all. But that’s not the only great thing about this place. They have a good array of dishes to choose from while you sit back and relax in the music and soulful lights. From amazing drinks to mouthwatering mai courses, I enjoyed my experience to the fullest.
I loved my kiwi-lime and mango berry drinks. Super rich and delicious.
Among starters my faves were dynamite shrimps and mutton chilli fry. They were easily one of the best I’ve had in Dubai! Super delicious and 100% recommended ⭐️
For mains we had bbq steak, which whilst bejng delicious had turned a bit overcooked. The oven baked chicken and rice is as wholesome as it can get. The RICE was specially SO GOOD. Something so simple but it tasted amazing.
The desserts were 50-50 for me unfortunately. The Brownie was a tad too hard and the icecream didn’t blend well with thr cake, but the Kulfi was absolutely delicious!
Definitely coming back to try the menu soon.
I had been to this cafe with a friend on a Saturday evening. The interiors are so gorgeous. It is an awesome place to sit back and chill and catchup with friends. The service was prompt, warm and welcoming. Thanks to Mr. Mari the restaurant manager, he took care of all the customers really well.
Drinks: We tried the Berrylicious and Orangaholic drinks. Berrylicious was an amazing mixture of berry and mango puree and Orangaholic had a mint orange mojito taste, both of them very very fresh.
Starters: Next, we tried Dynamite Shrimps, Chicken Panipuri, Olive Chicken Tikka and Peanut Curried Chicken Tikka. Dynamite Shrimps were yummy, crispy and had the perfect amount of dynamite sauce in it. Chicken Panipuri was nothing special, just normal panipuri with small achari tikka pieces to fill in and try it out with. Olive Chicken tikka should have had more olive-y taste. The best starter was undoubtedly the Peanut Curried Chicken Tikka which gave off the peanut taste much later after the chicken tikka was tasted. I strongly recommend this dish.
Main course: We tried the Chicken Sizzler along with Salmon Teriyaki. The Sizzler was chinese with basically chicken manchurian and fried rice, nothing great. Salmon was flawless, neither overcooked nor undercooked. It was decorated with microgreens and sauces and was just amazing!
Sheesha: We tried the special Fruity Paan Sheesha. The presentation was great witch lights and cut watermelon pieces for decoration.
Desserts: For desserts we had the Hot Chocolate Flan Brownie which had a layer of cheese in between the cake and a scoop of vanilla icecream and drizzled hot chocolate on top. Vanilla ice cream with Gulab Jamun was also really good.
Overall an awesome experience. Kudos to the team! Will surely visit again next time!!!
After coming into blogging I realized how many hidden gems there are. Everyone has their set restaurants for shisha and for food and we hardly want to experiment. I tried @smoqoholic for the first time and there is nothing in this restaurant I could rate even 9/10 everything was 10/10. The had a vast digital menu (plus point) every dish has a picture with it, to exactly see what you will be having. All the dishes are made the same way as shown in the picture. They have a vast variety of starters main courses and drinks. Every single dish is with a twist. We tried momos in green and black color they looked super cool and were full of flavours. Their dum biryani also came in a clay pot with roti covered on top cooked to perfection. Fish was super yummy and delicious. We ordered three different drinks and each one of them had a unique touch to it. Their special shisha was huge and it was made with fruits. It’s a must visit place ! Good food good ambiance and good shisha. #
Loved everything about this place. Ambience, the food is awesome. Great value combos. The shisha is even better. Might just become a regular here!
Smoqoholic restaurant is nice upscale restaurant with an extremely pleasant ambiance serving seafood and unique shisha . The rustic interiors provide a carefree, relaxed ambiance. This restaurant in Karama is a perfect choice to have your favourite drinks with appetizing snacks. The food is packed with flavours and aromas. With a very extensive list of dishes mostly from the Indian kitchen, the restaurant offers great value for its money to the visitors.
best ! dont let ur quality down! well done!
Follow me on Instagram @whattoeatmaria
New discovery! This is a must visit place to chill and have sheesha. As per my friend and me, one of the best sheesha place in town in affordable price. The food is great too, enticing and served in a good plating. All in all my experience was awesome!
Amazing shisha quality and service. I was in Dubai with my husband for a short visit to try various cafes however we ended up coming here most nights as the shisha is very unique and flavours are unbelievable. The pipe itself is extremely unique and the smoke is probably the best we ever had. Have some great combo deals where shisha and food and drinks are included in only around 130 AED. Shisha alone is almost a third of the price in Dubai. Definitely recommend the food and shisha. Excellent service and customer care by the shisha expert Shajan
Firstly they have an amazing ambiance. They are well known for their seafood options. People who enjoy shisha will love this place. They have a separate area for those who are visiting for their seafood and don't enjoy the shisha. It is a lively place with good music a good location to hang out with your friends. Our server for the night was Mr. Mari he was friendly informative and made sure we had a lovely evening. They also have many offers. They recently launched a new menu and the presentation and concept of the food was out of the world. I have to say that the new menu is better than the old menu. The design of their shisha is unique to them.
Food that we had ordered
1)Achari Chicken tikka - It had a perfect blend of favors. The presentation was really good and the tikka was very juicy and not so spicy. The taste went well with the mint chutney.
2)Dragon Lollipop - It was not very spicy and had a nice blend of flavors to it. Its a must try started
3)Rainbow Chicken Momos - it had a very nice presentation to it. The momos looked amazing and tasted amazing as well. It had a very nice filling of chicken inside it. It can have a mix of Beef/Chicken/Vegetarian mix in it.
4)Singaporean Lobster - Again the presentation was on point. The meat didn't have a very taste of lobster in it which was amazing. its served with fried rice to eat with eat. I have to say presentation wise and taste wise one of the best lobsters I have ever had
5)Thai Fried Chilli Fish - It looked like a steak but instead of meat, it was fish. It was amazing and I absolutely loved this dish I usually don't enjoy fish but this is a must-try.
Drinks ordered
For our drinks, we had ordered a watermelon juice and a berry- mango based drink The watermelon juice was fresh and had a nice presentation to it.
The berry mango based drink was served in a skull-shaped glass and the fruits were squeezed fresh.
overall I had an amazing time at this location and since they launched their new menu its a must-visit place. The presentation of every food item was amazing and the staff is quick and friendly
Nice shisha place and nice presentation of food as well.They too have live singing and there shisha's are different from any other shisha place.Make sure to reserve a table if you are going on a weekend as this place remains quiet crowded.And they are not very good at handling crowds.So to have a wonderful experience visit them on a weekday.
Our go to place for some good sheesha, yummy affordable food and a chilled out environment. If your looking for something similar this place is a must try!
We had ordered: bolognese, Red Chili Potato Finger & Peri Peri Beef Burger. All these were each appropriate and filling proportion for a single person. The food was amazing so was the ambience. #foodblogger
#smoqoholic
When we looked at the rating for this restaurant in zomato...it was pretty good and when asked people about their experience they just had one thing to say...amazing food but the way they display it is even better...and i must say....they serve food to please the eyes and they all are great in taste....on the whole a great visual treat.
they do serve sheesha and not just that you can spend hours there because they have all sorts of card games and board games to spend time with while you are enjoing your food.
We ordered a few starters and then one main and a lot of desserts as one can never get enough of Meetha after food

This place is famous for the shisha and seafood. We ordered Achari Prawns and Spaghetti Bolognese. The price was affordable. The shisha was really nice. Plus the Ambiance was a really cozy.
This is a late review but a much needed review.
This place was recommended so decided to visit it with my friends for my birthday dinner and we didn’t regret being their for dinner.
A thing to work on would be the sheeshas coz they don’t actually taste the way it looks.
Surely will visit them
I had heard quite a bit about Smoqoholic and decided to try the place out for its Shisha with a friend.
We ordered the Pan Fusion and Orange Fusion flavors. Hands down the shisha at this joint is its USP. It hit the sweet spot, not once did we have an issue with the flavor, even the coal was changed at regular intervals without asking for it.
The staff are extremely polite and courteous. And the cherry on top of the cake is the ambiance, which simply put - is very cool.
Will visit again and again for the Pan Fusion shisha. As for the food, I have not tried it yet, but I will change that during my next visit.
Great place to hang out... great shisha👍👍👍 great food 👍👍👍👍good music good place to see the match and great service 👏 Paka desi restaurant with fusion style food .... food is absolutely great taste wise and pocket wise 😁😋😋 go too place for desi food and shisha 👍👍👍🤩
A nice restaurant tucked in the Karama. We expected great food & this place met all expectations. Definitely we were not disappointed. The service is excellent and meets up all standards.
It’s perfect place to spend a quality evening - really great, good lighting, great decor. The sheeshas are great, the sheesha specials are really good and a must try. The food is brought with a twist, good to have a change at times. The crabcake was a delight , and chicken pani puri was good.
Sheesha -4/5
Food - 3.5/5
Price - 3.5/5
Ambience -4/5

Overall a 4.8*
The food revolution that evolved in Karama has seen many of Dubai’s best new restaurants popping up like mushrooms in an already Restaurant heavy culture; but for the sake of those of you on the lookout for an experience like no other, your destination has arrived. Head over to Smoqoholic; a Restaurant cum Sheesha Bar near Zabeel road; here there’s not Just Smoke; there is Fire too! ......I did...and I am “Head over Heels” now for this place!!
The sheesha is LIT, like literally. Food was decent can’t expect better from a sheesha place. Great service although food takes long time to come on the table.
The experience was good... unique sheesha made this place a must visit. Food presentation is good, however quantity could have been better. Mandarin drink and strawberry mojito are must to try. The place was quiet, may be because of Ramadan. So will surely like to visit again post Ramadan.
Superb customer service....i would love to go again and again to the place presentation was really good..shisha is always good that I found in smiqoholic...Mr.Prem & all the staff are very welcoming to all the clients even if the restaurant is busy they look after each and every client.I would recommend this place for a visit...
This place has one of the best vibe for sheesha and good food in Dubai. The staff are very friendly. We always prefer BK to serve us cuz he just the best. All in all must visit place. 5 stars✌🏾
Good service. The staff is polite. We ordered Lemon Mint Shisha and it was smooth. Good place for shisha. The ambience is cozy and the food was above average. Overall a good experience.
A very unique concept in terms of shisha and well worth the time and the wait. The food was also very different but we are not big seafood fans. We would go for shisha again and again.
Smoqoholic is me and my friends go to place. We love hanging out here and the food is good. I used my zomato gold here for the first time. The ambiance is very colorful and chill types and the service is great. We order the chicken lollipop, chicken pani puri and the brownie desert.
Superb Shisha n amazingly delicious food made by Chef 👨🏼🍳 served with presentation n a smile by exceptional staff 👸🏼
loved it a must visit ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A nice place with beautiful food presentation... we love the salt and pepper baby corn...also we ordered coconut chillers and mango milk shake... Coconut chillers is OK but they changed my drink cuz i dint like it (what else do u want as a customer if u r valued), also mango milk shake is very nice...
Berrylicious is one of the best drinks they hav...
We also took sweet corn dish which was wonderful...
If u love shisha they have super awesome shisha...
They also change ur shisha if u dont like and inform in 5 to 10 mins.. very nice staff...
All in all must visit place...
I had been here recently with my friends. We went there to try its fusion foods and drinks. We went there in afternoon time and the restaurant was totally empty. So the service we got was excellent.
To begin with the food, we ordered 4 of their most instagrammy drinks. It tasted amazing because these guys know how to add and mix two fruity flavours together. My favourite was berrilious.
Then comes the most promising dish the sea food platter. It was worth the money to all its extent. We got a pasta too, this too tasted great. We also ordered nitro chat trolley which was a live chat. Fun to have nitro in chats. Who could have imagined this!
For desserts we were not quite experimental except for one gulab muffin (gulag jamun) inside a muffin served with rabdi. Yum! We got two dishes complimentary.
This place is mainly known for food, shishas with live music.
I used the Zomato Gold at Smoqoholic for the first time. I like the ambience and the customer service at the place. They’re very friendly. I feel the bathroom could be maintained better and they can do better with student focused discounts. Here is my rating
Chicken Lollipops: 8.5/10
Chicken Pani Puri: 9/10
Brownie cake: 5/10
Recently visited Smoqoholic and I was excited. I have heard alot about this place and to be honest, this place surely gets jam-packed by evenings. And I am not surprised why. The interiors are so amazing with all the changing lights which liven the vibe. The seatings are also very comfortable with board games that you can play with.
This place immediately transports you to a different world!
A Very sci-fi futuristic vibe with iPad menus and neon-ish lighting.
we tried a couple of beverages and some 1-2 starters. The food is strictly average.
All coffees/Teas are served with a nice big muffin ( win)
The sheesha flavours are spot on and so smooth!
If you're a sheesha enthusiast I think these ones worth a try.
Keep Gobbling xx
Nice place .. Nice shissha.. courteous and friendly staff... Can improve more on the taste of food... ambience is good and nice place to spend the evening watching sports and playing some indoor games with friends...
Good food and ambience. Would be great if they converted to non smoke restaurant it would add more value as the place has lots of smokers. We had shrimp dynamite, chicken crispy, chilly beef. All were delicious
One of the good places for seafood.
The chicken burger at Smoqoholic is to die for. You will love there Chicken Lollipop.
Staff is friendly and they do they suggest you good dishes to try everytime you go.
Lovely venue, we came on a Saturday late night to have some food , all the staff were very friendly and welcoming, Anu was fantastic and on point on suggestion and recommending dishes, well trained staff and the food was amazing , the chefs knows what they are doing,reasonable prices for a standalone restaurant, they might have to work on the lighting system the outlet,
Overall fantastic place, highly recommended to go and enjoy your meal,
Once again thank you so much to Anu to have lots of patients to take our order and making sure everything was beyond satisfaction,
This place will be more successful if they keep continue the grate job that they do
Wish you all all the best
Good place to chill with friends..shisha is very good..vegetarian food options are not much...they play sports most of the time and play music as well.
Excellent place for shisha lovers .. the different kind of shisha they serve is the highlight of this place.. the way they serve you food is kinda nice and unique, even the food tastes very good.. friendly staff.. a must visit place
Shisha was amazing. We got paan rasna and blueberry. The staff was polite and helpful, and they made sure to check on the shisha often. The food was only ok. We tried the chicken pani puri. It tasted good, as 2 separate dishes, but they don't really go together. We also had the orange and carrot juice which was really good.
Awesome steal deal for AED 100...recommended pan jibran special shisha...add a refreshing watermelon drink and 2 appetizers (we chose baby corn salt and pepper and melt in mouth paneer tikka)...the great music added to the vibes! A hidden gem in the heart of Karama!
Very good place to hangout. Their sheesha is damm good and starters are marvelous. They have very friendly staff and quick service. Love to be there
An amazing place suggested by a friend. Not being a very huge fan of sheesha, I was a bit hesitant to go there but exploring is always good :)
First look of the place is good. Dim lights, multiple seating areas and a stage setup for live band performances. Although there was no one playing when we were there, not sure what all days they have live performance.
We called for 2 combos, 1st sheesha combo which was a great bargain. 1 sheesha, 2 starters/pastas/sliders of your choice and 1 drink for 100 aed and 2nd four drinks for 75.
Sheesha - watermelon paan was good, starters - veg chilly crispy and prawn chilly were both amazing, drinks were amazing too. They even have board games!
Their presentation and staff, both are equally amazing.
Overall a nice cozy place to sit back and relax over some food, sheesha, non alcoholic drinks and bunch of friends.
Will definitely visit again to try more of their seafood since it is actually a seafood place.
Loved the ambience and the restaurants friendly staff, you'd think that this place would be just another shisha cafe but it's really not, it just surprises you with their unique food menu that also tastes amazing!
Amazing shisha i ever had for an affordable price (45 dhs) staffs are very respectful and friendly, visited the place for the first and im gonna always visit this place !
very tasty food
prices are very reasonable
friendly staff
nice ambiance
comfortable sitting
it was my first visit, i got a nice feedback and gonna repeat it again

Nice Ambience. Great hangout place to chill with a modern twist to all the dishes. Good shisha options to choose from. Ask the staff for the mixtures and flavors in the shisha you chose as there is a variety.
Amazing place to Dine. Friendly Staff. A good family place. It’s a definite choice over the weekend dining. Will definitely coming back again
This has by far been one of the best experience this year.. every item that we ordered..(n boy did we order) was great.. the Hukkah flavours were really nice.. the staff did ot need any reminders to change the coal.. then the food.. every item was brilliant but the Stir fry Chicken and the Tangy achari prawns were the hands down winners.. nothing I hv ever eaten has had so much flavours bursting in my mouth.. also try their drinks..the mocktails are brilliant.. specially loved the chilly drink.. the staff was patient and really helpful.. all in a complete delight.. will surely be going there a lot more.. 👍
Been here long back but definitely noticed some changes. The food portions have gotten bigger. The food was delicious and really nice shisha too. The tables have draws with games inside.
Food: We ordered Dynamite prawns, Chilli beef, Customized Pasta and Calamari. All super good 👍👍
Lovely food, quick service and very polite staff. The serving was generous and the food was spicy like promised. We used our zomato gold buy 1 get 1 free offer and felt the value for money was amazing. We ordered their crispy beef and prawn curry. The curry came with steaming hot rice and hot nan. Highly recommended.
Celebrated brother's birthday. Amazing staff . Very friendly and excellent service. I love the atmosphere peaceful and calm with beautiful lightings. Food is just amazing. My brother is a sea food fan. He loved it. We ordered seafood long platter. He was happy with the selection.
Thanks for the complimentary cake and sheesha free for 6 visits. Highly recommended..Will visit again soon. Thank you so much. Thanks to the staff who served us. Specially anu :)
Went there mainly for sheesha which was amazing the staff was extremely friendly and prompt. Gets very busy in the evening,but has amazing vibes and ambiance. Tried there wraps and the trimisu desert which was very tasteful. Looking forward to make another trip to this place.
I went there yesterday on a friends recommendation , the ambience is really cool so is there shisha, they have some cool shisha bodies as well , we tried basil chilly chicken tikka , wok pepper shrimp, smoqoholic shake and chicken pizza , all of them had a very different and amazing taste. There staff is also very cool specially Mr. Arjun and Mr. Prince , they were very kind to us and were very helpful.
An indoor shisha place with decent ambience, but the quality of shisha provided is really nice. Not so happening on a weekday other than casual dining, weekends especially Fridays are very lit with live Bollywood and Punjabi band. so if you planning to visit here may be a Friday is a good day. Food are mocktails are really amazing. Good place for dinner. Cheese Crab balls are my favourite here.
Mad hunger pangs and we dined her for dinner on a weeknight! The place looks like a retro sports bar with sheesha. Service by waitress Ms.Anu was spot on. The orders took ages to arrive at the table. Starter ‘ Olive Chicken ‘ was lip smacking with four pieces of drumstick. Main course was green steamed fish fillet which was cooked right and methi paneer served with roti and rice. One delicious stop and would definitely return to savour more delicacies!
