It’s a cool spot! You got alcohol, hookah, and danceable music… What more could you ask for. The prices were reasonable. The service was up to par, and the people were friendly. Wish this type of establishment was in my hometown.

Came here to smoke hookah and were absolutely satisfied! The hookah lasted for a long time, very tasty and had a lot of smoke. Wide range of tastes and for affordable price! Definitely recommend!

I’m going to give this place a solid 3 stars. I’ll rate my review of the UYE differently. The club is downstairs, tucked away, and it wasn’t really all that crowded on a Saturday night. We arrived at 10:30 and even when we left at 1:30, there was still plenty of room on the dance floor. The DJ was good and the bartenders were really nice. Bar area is large, and several hidden areas to canoodle whoever you went with or met there. Solid three stars, but not sure if I would return without a really good group of friends.

VIBE Dj for the night was ok and i wish he kept it consistent with playing the good songs more often. i have noticed a pattern, where the DJ plays one good song then the dance floor becomes empty, then when a good songs come up then the dance floor is filled up again. LAYOUT So many rooms and place to just lounge around, which is a big plus! there is a room with like 2 pool tables along with some rooms to just ounce around with your hookah or drinks. Music doesn’t go to this end is what i have noticed, or it might be cuz no one was on that side. DANCEFLOOR it was very roomy, lots of room to dance! i love how we are not crowded and can dance freely! a few booths along the dance floor for you observe and just chill. loved the DJ table set up with his big white speakers! also love the lighting! more hip hop and RNB played than EDM music. HOOKAH my favorite one for the whole night was blueberry mint! This was so minty and everyone was waiting for this one. its not too fruity or sweet but just refreshing to the throat. DRINKSPECIALS one thing i like was how affordable the prices were for the house well, shots, and etc. one dollar jello shots with strong vodka! Man was it was a quick buzz after consuming one. Loved the $ 3 house shots, whether vodka, gin, rum, or tequila, you name it! no complaints! $ 2 beers! such as pbr for a chaser! yes yes! even though it wasn’t in a bottle but it was in a cup, not sure if it was tap or not, but i have a feeling it was most likely to be it. Overall i have a great time! loved the hookah, drinks, and dance floor. Some improvement is when you see the dance floor getting low, switch the music. Very nice owner and patient with all my questions and took his time to explain what alcohol is used in the jello shots.

First time here and I had such a fun night. The DJ was on point, everyone literally danced the whole night away and all the way to the early morning. Didn’t leave this place until past 3am. They also have amazing hookah and their drinks was delicious!!! Totally recommend this place if you’re ever in the Tahoe area, come check it out!!! If you’re lucky, we might just run into each other :) Happy dancing!!! Toodles~Mae

Awesome clubbing ambiance at Xhale! One thing that really stuck out to me was the fancy interior of Xhale. Instead of most typical clubs that I’ve been to, Xhale actually has a variety of colored lights(pink, purple, blue) set up in each room. Also, instead of one dance floor or one giant room, I love how there are multiple smaller rooms to chill and hookah in to accomodate multiple parties. The employees were really accomodating and nice as well. The DJ played a range of R&B music to remixes that I could definitely dance to! Great music, spacious rooms, and awesome vibes at Xhale! I had such a great time partying on the dance floor with my fellow Unilocalers! :)

Thank You, Sunny Patel, For The Awesome Unilocal PINKPARTY Shenanigans @ Xhale! SITREP My hat’s off to owner Sunny Patel, Sunny’s great staff and his awesome venue Xhale. While we were up in South Lake Tahoe for the Unilocal Tahoe Getaway(YTG) 2015 Weekend enjoying the pristine beauty of the gorgeous Lake Tahoe landscape and water fronts during the day, thanks to Sunny, he helped mastermind a fantastic Pink Party event for Saturday night Oct 3rd. MOREDANCERTHANGAMBLER I will admit up front that I am NOT a gambler. I really don’t have much of an interest hitting any casino’s core business function: the tables. Just not my cup o’ tea. However, having said that, gambling towns like South Lake Tahoe, Reno, Vegas, Atlantic City, etc. generate a fun active vibe with lots of energy that people love. So part of this excitement manifests itself in really cool dance clubs — such as Xhale — which is an eclectic & outstanding subterranean venue located on the Harvey’s block, and just a couple doors down from the Lucky Beaver. CLUBMETRICS! So being a great dance club with a beautiful cocktail bar, AND a hookah lounge, Xhale(as the name implies) is BYDEFINITION, a classy & fun hookah bar experience. [While ordering drinks at the bar, patrons can also peruse the many different flavors for the hookahs. Some are very standard while others are quite exotic. UnilocalPINKPARTY! Thus«PINKPARTY» for this Unilocal weekend was born, and Sunny, his awesome staff and DJ Trek engineered the particulars for putting on an amazing Pink Party of fun! THESETUP Sunny is the man to come to if you are interested in setting up a great party environment for the night. I already saw that with his execution of our Unilocal Pink Party. Sunny and his team also have an ongoing relationship with the South Lake Tahoe Club Crawl group. So the Xhale team have great experience in dealing with large groups. Sunny’s costs are extremely reasonable, and his flexibility is legendary: * In our instance, Sunny put my Unilocal group in the V.I.P. lounge with hookahs.
* The V.I.P. lounge became base HQ to come back and chill after a mad round of dancing. * However, Sunny was also flexible to let other members of our group take their hookah set-ups to the couches right on the perimeter of the dance floor, where they could almost dance & hookah simultaneousl. * Sunny allowed a menu of drink specials for us throughout the night as well that included beer specials, shot specials and even $ 1 jello shots. * DJ Trek! The man is off-da-hook! Playing a wide-range of electronic, deep house, trap, etc. etc., da man kept the dance floor jammin! And wat wit dat DJ set-up?!? Part music command center and part battleship, dat DJ mixing board was FIRING live rounds of awesome tracks on da ground! You could not have asked for a better club-party partners than Sunny Patel and Xhale. PARKING! Couldn’t be easier! The free Harvey’s lot in the back abuts right up to Xhale’s rear entrance. The front entrance right on Hwy 50 is easily accessible from the main gambling strip and hotels in the immediate vicinity. KUDOS! A HUUUUUUUUGE Shout-Out to owner Sunny Patel, bar manager Diane, DJ Trek for awesome jammin tracks, and the very friendly and most helpful security team(Dude! One of the staff can do back-flips on his skateboard, for REALZ!) THELOWDOWN Thank you, Sunny Patel, DJ Trek, the team, and club Xhale for the best night of dancing you could ever have in South Lake Tahoe — «PINKPARTYRULES!»

Perfect place for a middle aged city boy to escape the small town Lake Tahoe environment and enjoy drinks with friends(if you’re not into the smoking vibe)

We were visiting South Lake Tahoe for my boyfriends brothers 21st birthday! We were staying at Harvey’s & after gambling we decided to head down to monteblu. Let’s just say we didn’t make it! The guys at the front door were so welcoming that we decided to check it out! The atmosphere was so fun! Loud music, neon lights such fun bartenders! & they had yummy $ 1 Jell-O shots! The DJ was so interactive with the crowd! We had so much fun, we left then decided to go back! Highly recommend this place to anyone in the area looking to dance & drink! Maybe even a little bit of hookah!

This the spot to be at its luxurious and has a great ambiance. The bar is fully loaded with the best top shelf liquor. The hookahs are on point greats choice of flavors. Try the white gummie bear it’s awesome. You can tell this guy put a lot of money time and effort in this business. This is my new spot to be in Tahoe.

So I put 3 stars because I have only been here once, and while I was here I didn’t get to utilize all of the services they had to offer. I was at the bar and danced for a bit so that is all I will discuss. I did not go into the room with the pool tables and I did not do hookah. The dancing area was alright. There was not a lot of people dancing when I was there and for me that kind of ruins it, but it has the potential to be a great dance place with more people. The bar was where most of my time was spent. I liked it a lot. The bartender was friendly and the drinks were good and normal priced I thought. The best thing about this place was that there was no cover charge. All I want to do sometimes is dance but not have to pay 10 dollars to get into some of the other clubs the casinos have to offer(unless its ladies get in free night). But when you’re with a big group of people of mixed genders, this place really hits the spot because everyone can get in and not have to worry about forkin’ tons of money to do it. I plan to go back to this place and make use of the pool tables and I will update my review after that. Thanks! P. S. The place is 21 and over

I was done gambling for the night and wanted to go for a smoke. Surprisingly, Lake Tahoe actually has a hookah bar! But unfortunately, it was not quite up to my standards. It was a large, spacious area, but it was basically a basement. It reminded me of a party I would go to in a frat house back in college. It was very empty for a Memorial Day weekend. Even so, we had to sit away from the other customers because the seating near the DJ was full. The area we sat in did have bluetooth speakers though, and we were allowed to play whatever we wanted. The bar was OK. They had some decent craft beers on draft and the prices were pretty cheap. The hookah wasn’t too expensive either, at $ 21. So why 2 stars? The hookah sucked and that was really the only reason I came here. They pack Fantasia shisha, and it just isn’t a good brand, especially since there are better, cheaper alternatives. The lower quality tobacco used is masked by the amount of glycerin and flavorings it’s packaged with. They were not offering fruit bowls at the time, but they did use a vortex. I got the rainbow burst and the flavor lasted all of 5 minutes. I smoked it for an hour anyway, but wasn’t too satisfied. Service was good though. They checked up on us pretty often. Funny note, the guy checking IDs at the door thought I was underage. He tried to peel my NJ license apart because he thought it was fake. Showed him my other IDs and he finally let me in.

We came here as a group of fifteen for a bachelorette party, and we had an AMAZINGTIME! Sunny and his staff are absolutely wonderful and made us feel really special! They checked on us throughout the entire evening to make sure it was an incredible night and we really felt like VIP’s in our blue room. The venue is a hidden gem that people may not notice, but once you walk downstairs, the space is open and set up so you can enjoy dancing, and hookah without either getting in each others way. We had so much fun! Take the time to give this place a shot and enjoy this very cool space. Sunny and Co. will not disappoint. Cheers Sunny, and thanks a MILLION!

We came here on a whim on a Wednesday night. There was only a couple people here because it was a slow night but the atmosphere was awesome. They have pool tables and plenty of couches and tables to sit at. The bartender was really nice and drinks weren’t too expensive. We bought a peach flavored hookah which was great. You can tell that their shisha tobacco is good quality. I ended up losing my id here and the staff was great about keeping it safe for me and getting it back to me. Which was a relief. We met some great people and had a great time playing pool, dancing and listening to music. I will absolutely be back here the next time I am in tahoe.

Love Xhale! The staff is so friendly and there’s lots of people on the weekends! The hookah is really good and they let you smell different flavored before you buy. Bar selection is great too. Recommend to anyone in the south Lake Tahoe area.
