Empire Hookah Lounge

by Hookah Expert

This is the best hookah bar in LA/OC! They have the best pipes and tobacco. Very friendly staff and the lounge is very clean! :) Thank you empire hookah lounge!

Come here and smoke a bowl! They got metric tons of flavors to choose from and they also have my favorite, Tangiers! One of the few, if not, only hookah bar around the SGV area that carries Tangiers.Place is a little tricky to find if it is your first time, but once you find it you will be glad because this place is not an average run down hookah bar! Go inside and there will be a velvet rope guarding the place from jail bait. Don't forget to bring your ID, you ain't getting in if you don't have one!Seated down on the comfortable couches comes the dilemma of choosing what flavor of hookah you want. Of course, you can easily be distracted by the plasma TV's that are playing your favorite music videos.Once the hookah comes, smoke that lung cancer and have a good time!My recommendations are Tangiers Kashmir peach, cherry, cool strawberry, in house mix white gummi, and bring lots of people!

good place to hang out with friends who loves hookah,they have cool comfy couches too just right for kicking back.HOokah prices are great plus the hookah itself tasted so much better than other places.Its just  hard to find,located on the back,left side of the building.

I LOVE HOOKAH. And this place is my favorite hookah spot!  They have a bunch of comfy couches, flat screen TVs that constantly play music videos and a nice chill atmosphere.  Awesome place to go to just kick back with some friends and relax!  They have hookah starting at only $9.99 and the most expensive is $15.99...so if theres 4 of you, that's only $4/person! Just keep in mind...IT IS HARD TO FIND because their "Empire Hookah" sign doesn't light up at all...look to the left of that restaurant (forgot its name) and you'll see it tucked away.

Empire has one of the best environments I've seen in any hookah lounge/bar.  I've been to dozens of other lounges and yet nothing comes close. It literally feels like a lounge, rather than a backyard or restaurant set up. This place even has a VIP room. They have a ton of flavors to choose from including my personal favorite, Tangiers!  They play music videos on three plasma TVs during business hours and sometimes even have a live DJ.

Discriminating hookah smokers, this is your spot.  As others have mentioned Empire is one of the few (only?) hookah bars to carry Tangiers tobacco, which is entirely a cut above any of the Starbuzz/Al Fakher/Fumari stuff that the other so-called high end places pass off as their premium tobacco.  Furthermore, the atmosphere is relaxed, the people are friendly, and the lounge is clean, well arranged, and features a good array of flat screens strategically positioned around the room.I don't smoke much hookah anymore, but when I do, I come here.Note: Despite the smoke eaters in the ceiling, cigarette smoking is outside only.
