It's the first/only hookah lounge I've ever been to and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The space is comfortable (i.e., spacious and chill), the music selection is perfect, and the staff is attentive. They even have board/table games you can play for free with your party! Definitely a spot to visit if you want to go out but avoid the "rah-rah" of most clubs and lounges.

Zephyr is an unassuming spot... very low key but I have to say, it was fabulous!!! I had such a wonderful time there!! The music wasn't super loud so you could hold a convo without speaking on the top of your lungs. The service was wonderful, Rockii was a gem!! They have games and the crowd is friendly. They don't serve food there, however we're hoping maybe they will at some point. Must go spot!!!

Zephyr is a smaller hookah cafe with chill vibes. I stopped by Zephyr for this first time on a Thursday night a couple weeks ago with a friend. There were a few other folks there but they were all solo, relaxing and enjoying a hookah. I think there was only one group that showed up before we left. The music was pretty quiet and they had a basketball game on the TV. We ordered a mango hookah as well as a couple soft drinks, there is no liquor or food service at Zephyr. The hookah came out pretty quickly and had good flavor initially but with the second set of coals became a little more harsh. Adding a second flavor like mint may help smooth out the hookah. It felt like everyone who was there were regulars. Service was good and overall I had a good experience. Recommend if you are looking for a chill vibe and casual convo or if you just want to hookah solo and relax. Zephyr might not be the best hookah lounge if you're looking for a lively crowd but it is good if you want chill vibes. Parking might be tough if all the street parking is taken and the meters are 1hr max.

I prefer this hookah lounge every time. the hours are great. The staff is chill and amazing, and the owner addresses any minor concern. The hookah is always made how I like it!! I love that I can call my order in and it's bright o out upon arrival. 10/10!

Really good chill spot. The hookahs are packed nicely and the service was very good. They have nice couches and tvs too (and one tv has Netflix too). They have wi-fi so you can bring your laptop (or work on your phone if you prefer). Jasmine was super nice and explained everything really well.

Everything that you need in a hookah bar. This place has hookah that is smooth and strong, the couches are comfortable, and the environment is very chill. It is easy to relax or have a conversation. I tried their fizzy pop. It was a great flavor! Besides hookah they have water bottles, tea, Gatorade, etc but that's about it. If you want anything else it is BYOB and you pay a fee for that.

I love hookah, a lot and since covid the regulations to close hookah bars down in the city so I had to go all the way in the county, west county! Spot is really nice and clean. I like to try different flavors. They have a large variety. I tried fizzy pop(a mixture of different flavors) Definitely one of my favorite flavors I have tried. The owner was really nice and pleasant we held a brief conversation about him just coming back. Zephyr is a really chill and quiet hideaway! I do wish the music selection was better but I know they have to tend to all guest.

Came here for my wifes birthday, and had a really good time. The owner was really nice and the overall atmosphere was chill. We ended up getting 2 hookahs. The first was Mango Flavored which was really smooth, and the other was vanilla chai which was good, but probably not the best one if you're a novice like we were. In hindsight: Had I known prior to coming that this location was: 1.) BYOB. and 2.) Right next to what looked like a bomb @ss Korean BBQ spot. I wouldn't have made this the last leg of the night. I think you can easily make a night out of just coming here, and having food from next door. It would definitely be way cheaper then getting drinks at a bar, and the music here as Zeze I said in her review was absolutely fire! I was also told that every month they have a belly dancing party. I was advised to follow them on social media for the details, and i'll be doing that right after this...
