The Babylon Hookah Lounge and the adjacent places may not score high with Zagat or Yelp, but they are certainly popular with ethnic crowd they are aimed at..
Just a second, let me see if Yelp or Zagat even has something on Babylon...
Yes, and it gets a real range of responses, from those who love it and those who hate it..

I went to Babylon Hookah Lounge yesterday for a happy hour with a group.
Here's the rundown:
- no cover
- quick entry/no fuss
- full bar available (drinks were half off during happy hour)
- nice laid back ambiance
- staff is friendly and helpful
- hookahs last a long time
- you'll get a buzz off the mojito flavored hookah alone (just saying)
- average bar food available to snack on
- drinks are decent
- great for big groups
I had a good time out at Babylon and had no idea this hidden gem was located in Murray Hill. I plan on coming back here with friends over the course of this summer.
