I live in LA and I'm too familiar with the hookah scene and can distinguish good vs bad pretty well. Paymon's has great hookah especially when its happy hour time! If you don't smoke hookah, the happy hour is ridiculously amazing and the food is SOOO yummy. I love the Pesto Pizza and Athens fries! Good quality for a Good price. The drink menu is pretty great too! HOWEVER, this one time I went to Paymons (April 2012) I was with 6 other people and all but 1 of us were over 21. We wanted to smoke but the 1 guy who was under 21 was not allowed in the lounge area where you can smoke. We asked to speak to the manager and no exception was allowed since the bar is in the lounge area. Pretty lame since he was NOT going to drink or smoke, just came to eat in the lounge and watch us smoke. In anycase, just be aware its 21 & OVER for happy hour inside the lounge/smoking inside the lounge/drinking inside the lounge. Oh and happy hr is ONLY given inside the lounge : )
