Charcoal N Chill — Restaurant in Johns Creek

This place is a hookah bar pretending to be a disco bar. If I had to rate this place by just the food and the hookah, my rating would be a 4.5, but the music is so loud and jarring, that it kills the hookah lounge vibe.

I went with a few of my friends on a Saturday night. It was relatively quiet for the first 30 mins or so and I could hear what the other person on the table was saying. Suddenly a guy showed up, pretending to be the DJ and started playing really loud music. It was so loud that it became uncomfortable. The table next to us was also complaining. You could look around and see that nobody except for the guy who was playing the music was enjoying it.

I let our waitress know and she said that she will ask him to reduce it. It got louder. I spoke to the guy who was playing the music directly, and he didn't seem to care much. I finally let another senior staff member know and he said he will do something about it, but we didn't experience any change in the next 10 minutes. We asked for the check and went to the cigar bar next door. The hookah was good, drinks were big, and the atmosphere was SO...

Checked this place out with a group of four — heads up, the sign still says Dave’s Kitchen but it shows up as Charcoal N Chill on Google. Kinda confusing at first, but seems like they’re in the middle of a rebrand or management switch.

Honestly, the vibe was chill. Not super packed, but the space was cozy and low-key — good for hanging out.

We ordered Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Kebob, Tandoori Wings, and Chicken Momo. Everything was solid — wings had that nice smoky flavor, momos were juicy, and the kebobs were cooked well. Fried rice could’ve used a little more kick, but still good overall.

Drinks were on point — we had an Old Fashioned and a Whiskey Sour. Both were balanced, not too sweet, which I appreciate.

Tried the Love66 hookah, and it was pretty smooth — didn’t burn too fast, and the flavor held up for a good while.

Service was friendly, and they actually took time to recommend flavors and check in without being annoying. Overall, it’s a nice little spot if you’re looking to chill, grab some food and hookah with friends. Nothing super fancy, but definitely...

I had an incredible experience at Charcoal N Chill From the moment I walked in, the ambiance was perfect—cozy, stylish, and filled with a relaxing vibe. The lighting, music, and seating arrangements all contributed to a chill and welcoming atmosphere.

The hookah selection was top-notch, with a wide variety of flavors to choose from. The staff was knowledgeable and helped us pick the perfect mix. Each session was smooth, flavorful, and lasted a long time without needing constant maintenance. They clearly use high-quality shisha and well-maintained hookahs.

The service was outstanding. The staff was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were always comfortable. They checked in regularly without being intrusive, and the drinks and small bites complemented the experience perfectly.

Overall, this is hands down one of the best hookah lounges I’ve...
