Damaskino — Restaurant in Howick

Came for Shisha and it was great! One of the cheaper places I’ve been and honestly, probably one of the better place I’ve been to. They had a wide range of flavours and the staff who served me, were friendly and always came around to ask if I needed more charcoal. The outdoor seating area was quite spacious and looked really nice, really great vibes to spend time out and chill.

I also ended up ordering a chicken shawarma with fries, and it was yummy! The meat was juicy, and portion size was good. The garlic sauce was also banging, and it tasted great with the fries.

I’ll definitely be...

Highly suggest you ask for recommendations on the Shisha flavours as there are a plethora of choices to choose from. Your standard snacked foods are available though not many options. Spaces are slightly crammed but manageable. Wished they opened later in the night; as you do when smokin the pipe. They have a bit of a dumb rule where max number of people allowed to smoke Shisha is 3; which I think shouldn't exist. It doesn't matter how many people smoke it, the Shisha will only last as long...

Nice hooka fast food place. Good pricing but quality of hooka went down in last 3 weeks as they don't clean it properly, coal late change and not fast service like it was first I came in month ago. Taste of grape mint mix wears of quite quick. Kebabs became more dry as they burn meat too much... Don't know how change in quality happen so fast or I just hit lazy workers when not so many people mid day. Ahhh well there is 10 nzd more pricy Habibi in cbd but better...
