Red Sky Hookah Lounge Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Houston

Shockingly Discriminatory - Kicked Out Based on Gender most of good reviews are fake and done by their friends

Last night My friends and I went Red Sky Hookah Lounge and Grill with the intention of actively promoting Red Sky and DJ services. We were enthusiastic about contributing to their atmosphere and attracting a wider audience. However, our experience took a horrifying turn when, upon seeing the female members of our group, the owner became visibly uncomfortable and ultimately demanded that we leave.

Based on the owner’s reaction and subsequent behavior, it appears that his personal background and upbringing have led to an inability to tolerate the presence of women. This blatant display of gender-based bias was not only deeply insulting but also completely unacceptable in a public space.

The fact that we were there to help promote the business makes this treatment even more egregious. It is bewildering that in this day and age, a business owner would allow personal prejudices to dictate who he serves and how he treats paying customers.

It's incredibly frustrating that there was no prior indication that this establishment was not welcoming to women. I believe it is critical for businesses to uphold basic standards of respect and inclusivity. At the very least, if a business operates under such discriminatory principles, it should be transparent with potential patrons upfront. A sign indicating "No Women Allowed" would be a bare minimum for transparency, though the fundamental problem of discrimination would remain.

Frankly, this experience was deeply disturbing, and I cannot in good conscience recommend Red Sky. Until there are significant changes in its management and approach to inclusivity, I would advise others – especially women – to avoid this establishment. Places that harbor discriminatory attitudes should be...

I’ve been visiting this place regularly for over six months, and it has become my go-to spot to escape the daily routine and catch up on emails and work. The food is absolutely delicious, and the owner and staff are incredibly accommodating. By now, they know my usual order, and by the time I’ve set up and started responding to emails, my hookah and food are ready—talk about great service!

As a small business owner, I truly appreciate the team’s attention to detail and thoughtfulness. Their dedication to creating a welcoming experience makes every visit enjoyable and stress-free.

This lounge is perfect for those seeking a relaxing evening with good food and a laid-back atmosphere, whether you’re flying solo or spending time with a date. It’s not designed for impromptu parties with kids or dancing—it’s all about unwinding and enjoying the moment. If dancing and partying are what you’re after, a dance hall might be a better fit.

For anyone looking for a peaceful spot to enjoy great food and excellent service, I highly recommend this place! and if you feel that this review is too good to be true, you can find me here every Friday/Sunday between 6 and 8pm with my 3 monitors, you can't miss me (so stop by and...

This place is awesome. I used to go to a couple other hookah bars around Houston but none of them can match Red Sky for service. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgable about their product.

Speaking of product, the brand of Shisha they sell, Haze, is apparently a Houston based brand and is very good. It provides a good smoke for a couple hours minimum and is definitely worth the price.

The subject if price brings me to my only sticking point with Red Sky. They are priced slightly more expensive than other Hookah Lounges I've been too in Houston but they make up for that higher price with their excellent service and great Shisha.

I've not yet tried the food offerings from Red Sky but they do look quite good. They offer a selection of sandwiches and some appetizers as well as a selection of Gelato. They also have a selection of smoothies and iced coffee drinks as well.

I definitely recommend that you go check this place out if you enjoy hookah. You won't go to another hookah bar...
