Me and my girls went out to hookah hut on a Friday night… it was so dope ! It was packed but we were treated great. We got free waters while we waited for coals, but it was ok cuz the music was awesome ! We were dancing almost all night. The ambiance was cool and the servers were really nice !

Been coming here since 2011. This place is made for ppl who really know a true hookah lounge and what it is all about. The atmosphere is like ur somewhere in Morocco or Egypt. Music is amazing; always on point. It gets busy on weekends but weeknight r chill. And the hookah is always very clean and tasty. I don’t even pick myself… I ask the owner Mina to make me a mix and it’s always great.

Honestly not impressed at all, first time going there and they bring my hookah without coals. I thought oh maybe they’ll bring it out any min now, wishful thinking! I had to get up and ask for it – wtf, I frequent hookah bars and that was a first. We ordered«painkiller» which was ok, burned out soon and they had no fumari. The prices are very reasonable, it made my experience more tolerable. I would have given it 2 stars but the waitress put our drinks on the house. She was a sweetheart but I think it’s her first time working at a hookah bar. Also parking can be an issue if you get there later in the evening.

Well shucky duckie! Apparently a female version of myself(Keni G) enjoys her shisha(Arabic for hookah), as do I? Where you at gurrr’L? Let’s light it up!!!(in a legal, law abiding way) In pursuit of somewhere to go for«date night», I consented to letting him drive(soooo– not like me) and oddly enough we ended up way the heck out in Redondo, at this place. Wow’zers. He really does«know me», I thought to myself. Located on Artesia, after it morphs from being the 91 freeway to a widened local city boulevard, sits the«Hookah Hut» and while I’m certain no Pizza Hut fan, ——«Hookah Hut» is one hut I’ll be visiting again within the very near future. With plush seating, excellent décor, wall mounted flat screens, a noteworthy playlist and a mellow and tranquil enough vibe to even take care of excess office work, this place was a severely nice find. Come to think of it. How the heck did HEFINDTHISPLACE??? Somebody’s been creepin’! Biting my tongue a bit, a round of hookah hits guest(s) for no mas’ than $ 20.00 and while not crowded within our session, I can TOTALLY picture this place being a clusterphuk once capacity has been obtained. To further expound, I deducted –one– star that I’m electing to split in 1⁄3 to be fair. ___________________ * There is only ONE restroom to be split among both sexes. — I really hate waiting to pee and I’d hafta’ charge someone if I shared a stall. * Despite there being an adjacent back lot for parking, this lot is HARDLY enough for the patrons this places derives. Parking across the street(or any place else for that matter) results in IMMEDIATETOWING! Uhm, Über anyone??? * While the«fruit head“s(i.e.: pineapple) are an outstanding addition, I’d really like to see a bit more variance in flavor. ____________________ Customer service here is commendable as well. No one wants to wait for new coals or simply to be addressed and attended to… and Heaven help us! The eye candy! Everyone at this place, both employees AND customers, themselves, seem to be phyne’ as hell! [Hey, I’m married — NOTBLIND!!!] In any event, I humbly suggest visiting this place all the while dressing to impress. Ya’ never know who you’ll run into —

I come here very often, both weekdays & weekends. During the week the place is mellow enough to bring your laptop, sip some tea and get work done. I find it actually kind of relaxing. — Friday through Sunday there is a lot of people, and music is of course played a little louder on weekends, and some nights they have a live DJ. I did not give it 5 stars because; — there has been occasions where the waiter tried to over charge my party(during the weekend), oblivious to the fact that I’m a regular. — During the weekend it can be a bit of a hassle to get seated because it gets crowded. — They have only one restroom. — The music is either hit or miss!(Most of the time it’s good) — Parking lot is itty bitty. DONOTPARK in the grocery store lot, your car WILL be towed within minutes. It happens to 2 of my friends at the same time. Besides that, it’s a great spot. The staff are for the most part really chill, they provide pretty ok customer service, and the prices are a good.

I do love this place, the atmosphere is so relaxing and I love the vibe. Great place to come with a group of friends and unwind. Such a variety of flavors to choose from. Only reason why I give it four stars is because when you ask for something from the employees it takes them a while and it’s hard to enjoy hookah when you’re waiting for something

Hookah was strong. So I suppose it was good. Music extremely loud for tiny venue. I had to scream to the person across from me. Not to mention a man was having a loud live periscope broadcast. The man working kept ignoring me everytime I asked him to come over. I can’t even tell you how many times I tried to get his attention.

Honestly really disappointed in this place. The hookah was okay and not too expensive. The problem was with the employees. I tried paying with card and they refused to take it o I had to go and get cash from the atm. After paying for the hookah and leaving, the employees double charged the rest of my party that had stayed behind. I would’ve come back had they not done that. But it was a not professional and wouldn’t recommend thins place to anyone.

I’ve been to many many hookah spots in my years and never have I been to one where it’s so uncomfortable. It’s like you’re sitting on the persons lap next to you while you’re smoking. They have fruit heads, they don’t have alcohol(however I noticed people bringing their own alcohol in), the flavors were good and the prices were extremely reasonable. They had music playing, people dancing and knocking over hookahs(because of the limited space), I had to chase down someone to order and someone else to pay. Had a hard time differentiating who worked there and who were fellow patrons because it seemed like everyone’s just sitting around. Parking is the pits! I saw people getting towed so be careful.

Im not meant for hookah today! The second place I went to that was not set up and ready to serve customers at opening time. The place opened at 6pm and Im here at 6:31 and hookahs are just getting set up. People are sitting down in silence looking at each other waiting to order I suppose. Im just sitting here looking at the nice selections still waiting on a cue to get up and order or wait to order… I want to try the peach frenzy or citrus tangerine… Should I wait or should I leave?

This is the first time I have been to a hookah place. Are they all supposed to look so sketch? I felt like I didn’t really want to touch anything. The person that helped us was the owner’s dad, who was really nice and helpful. He took good care of us, but got side track after a while. When I am assuming the owner came, he wasn’t as attentive and seemed a bit annoyed that I asked him for the check(I did accidentally ask him while he was about to take a bite into his sandwich). The hookah itself was pretty good, we didn’t get the happy hour price even though we came in before it ended. Bathroom was ok for my low standards… but my partner held it til we got home. Bottom line: overall experience wasn’t terrible, but will likely not come back

Good hookah but not the ambience I’d expect in Redondo Beach. Will come back perhaps but only after tring out some other local spots first. Service was slow to be approached(upwards of 10 mins) however Mina’s dad was EXTREMELY friendly and welcoming. Clubby music was a bit too loud and there were coal burns on our seats. Had a great time here with partner overall still. Expected a lot more after seeing all the 5 star reviews on Unilocal

Hookah Hut is by far the best hookah lounge I’ve ever been to. The atmosphere is chill and friendly. Staff is upbeat and attentive. It’s obvious they enjoy their jobs and are having fun and taking care of the customers in the process! Mina, the owner, is amazing. You almost feel like he is hosting you in his own home. Come here a few times and you are automatically adopted into the Hookah Hut family. I threw my son a birthday party at here last night for his 18th birthday. His party ended up being considerably larger than expected and Mina and Hany jumped through major hoops, moved people around, pretty much rearranged the whole lounge to seat them all together. It was awesome and I’m pretty sure I gained some major«cool mom» points! Thanks SO much guys! Location is convenient. Parking is a little tough. Par for the course in Redondo. But DON’T park at Albertsons. They WILL tow. A couple of my kid’s friends had their cars towed last night :( Hookah Hut was my first and last hookah love. Thanks for the memories!!! Cheers!

The new location is so much nicer, and the staff has really grown, which has lead to faster service. I live down the street, so parking isn’t an issue for me, but the lot is very small, and apparently Albertson’s isn’t cool with letting people park in their lot either. The hookahs are a little pricey, but it’s still a fun place to hang out. If you just want to relax, go in a little earlier in the evening. Because as it gets later everyone between the ages of 18 – 20 stops by and treats it like a club and it can be a little packed and loud at times. But still, well made hookahs everytime. Definitely will be back.
