Default Zarka Cigar Lounge (So Cal) Pictures & Review
I was down at the Pechanga Casino for their BBQ Festival (which was great by the way) and decided to stop in to Zarka Cigar Lounge just off the 15 & Rancho Calif Rd.

Zarka is unique among cigar stores in So Cal, in that they actually sell booze. They're a private club ($365 a year) that sells one day memberships for $10 that includes one free (house) beer, wine or cocktail.

They got a nice walk-in humidor, leather couches, big screens, pool table AND A FULL BAR.

It was pretty empty on Saturday around 1:00pm, but I smoked a La Gloria Cubana Artesanos Retro Especialé (which is not a bad medium cigar) and enjoyed one of their house cold beers.

I would say "everybody was friendly" but it was really just me and one other guy. It's not nearly as smoky as my pictures look. I think the neon signs mess with the exposure.

Here are the pic's.

That place looks nice. I wouldn't pay $365 to be a member, but it still looks good.

$1 a day would work for me to have a place to smoke in the winter, if it were near me, and open late.
