Hookah Lounge-Paymons Rstrnt

Always a pleasure to visit. Visiting Paymon's is a treat. Everything on the menu that I have tried so far is SO good! The Athens fries are addictive. Their falafels are to die for! I am always greeted with a smile, seated promptly, and treated as if I am the only client in the restaurant. Today, a friend and I enjoyed a late lunch at Paymon's on West Sahara and their server, Anin, was incredibly nice. He helped us with our choices, was polite and amiable. He never disappeared for too long - he made a point to come around and see how we were doing more than once. I tried the Bruschette salad. It was flavorful without being too rich. Careful though! The portion is generous. I would have finished it if only I had the room!

If you are looking for affordability and something pleasantly different from your average restaurant, choose Paymon's. You won't be sorry!…

Disappointing first visit. We shared a flaming saganaki appetizer served with pita bread ? a slice of Kefalotyri (Greek) cheese that has been sauteed and then flambeed with rum and finished with a sprinkle of fresh lemon juice. This dish was not flambeed tableside as is customary, but it was quite tasty though very filling. My wife?s entree was moussaka - a layered casserole of sliced eggplant, onions, potato and ground beef topped with a bechamel sauce. It was accompanied by a small cup of Mediterranean vegetables and plain basmati rice. I ordered fesenjan, a Persian dish ? pieces of boneless chicken slowly cooked with crushed walnuts in a tangy semi-sweet pomegranate sauce and served with a large mound of plain basmati rice. In order to meet the minimum dollar amount required under the terms of our gift certificate I was forced to consume an order of Athens fries as well. Overall we were under whelmed by this dining experience.…
