Editorial Review for Gypsy Cafe – by Nina Emkin
In Short
This Westwood hangout is one of the best known hookah joints in the city, and it's almost always busy. Although a variety of Middle Eastern and Continental food--from kabobs to pasta--is served, the star here is undoubtedly the water pipe. There are over 40 different flavors of tobacco to choose from: including apple, mint, melon and that perennial crowd pleaser, strawberry. The weekends are especially crowded, when UCLA students come to get their tobacco fix, Persian-style.

At first glance, it may seem that the Gypsy Cafe wouldn't stand a chance to it's adjacent competitor Habibi Cafe due to the echo of loud music coming from Habibi's main lounge. But walk through Gypsy Cafe's doors and you'll see just how much better Gypsy is. The service is amazing, and the hookah list is quite impressive. The music is also set at an enjoyable level of volume, so unlike Habibi, you can actually hear the person talking to you from accross the table without them screaming. It comes down to this: If you like a good time, great service, amazing hookah, and delicious food, then go to Gypsy Cafe. If not, then go to Habibi. It's that simple. Way to go Gypsy Cafe!
Pros: Hookah Variety, Service, Atmosphere, Comfortable Setting
Cons: Nothing

I loved Gypsy. Great service and i loved the hookah. the cover charge is pricey (only on nights). However i recommend going there for brunch to avoid the cover charge that way you can eat something, smoke hookah, and go shopping or watch a flick on the village. The VIP area is really nice i would love to rented out for my bday next year.
Pros: service, patio, hookah
Cons: $15 cover charge (nights)
