Visited Don Rene in White Plains and had a great time at the lounge. The staff was really friendly and attentive, and the hookah prices were very reasonable. The DJ kept the vibe going with a mix of music—mostly Hispanic with some hip hop sprinkled in. Overall, a solid spot to chill and enjoy the night. - Fiori
