Las Vegas Hookah Lounges
Â
The Hookah Lounge scene is both daylife and nightlife in Vegas with mostly younger clients. There are specialist Lounges that offer Hookah and little else. The Middle Eastern restaurants often offer Hookah as a sidelight. Recently some of the Vegas Nightclubs and Strip Clubs have entered the game.
If you are a Hookah purist, we recommend the Hookah only lounges which tend to have better pricing, more variety and sometimes better-trained staff. However, if you view Hookah as a nice finish to a meal, nightclub or Strip Club experience you may be more interested in what is convenient. Here are your choices.
Casinos
Santa Fe Station and Green Valley Ranch offer some Hookah in their respective bars, 4949 and Drop. The rock music bar Mist at TI, Lavo at Palazzo and Poetry in the Forum Shops near Caesars have pricier offerings that might appeal to those who want the convenience of Hookah at their favorite nightlife spot. Le Tabac is in the Neiman Marcus area of Fashion Show Mall across from Wynn.

Restaurants
Some of the better Middle Eastern restaurants in Vegas also offer Hookah. Stephano’s is surprisingly good despite the moderate décor. Khoury's, Shish Kabob House (value for big portions), and Olive Mediterranean Grill are contenders for the best in Middle Eastern food for Vegas. Paymon’s is a very well reviewed restaurant (3 locations but only the 2 listed offer hookah) offering dishes such as Persian Fesanjen as well as less successful Italian dishes. Puff offers tapas.

Hookah Specialists
These lounges only offer Hookah, except for 420 which is also a smokeshop with a very urban not upscale feel. The most recently opened is Las Vegas Hookah Lounge, not far from 4949 at Santa Fe Station. Pricing and variety are better than the Vegas casino hookah lounges.

Strip Clubs
Probably one of the first to offer Hookah in a Vegas Gentlemen's Club was Deja Vu which is part of the same company that owns Little Darlings--both nude and non-alcohol. You must upgrade your admission with a VIP table ($100) and then the Hookah is an extra $30. This is not recommended if interested in Hookah only but if you were going to splurge on a Las Vegas Strip Club VIP anyway, then the cost would be more reasonable. Babes Cabaret does not require VIP upgrade.

Non-Tobacco Hookah Lounges
Most herbals smoke hot but some prefer them to the standard tobacco shishas. The specialists will usually accommodate the non-tobacco crowd with advance notice special orders such as Cloud Nine and Las Vegas Hookah Lounge keeps a few samples of herbals just in case but don't inventory them. Here are the ones who usually have some legal herbals on hand. Ironically, Layalina's has the most herbals despite the similar name brand of a tobacco shisha.
