I've been coming to Paymon's for over 20 years, so this review isn't based on one good dinner. It's based on two decades of consistently great food, service, atmosphere, and hospitality. Paymon's is one of those longtime Las Vegas restaurants that genuinely has something for everyone. Obviously the Mediterranean food is outstanding. The hummus is some of the best I've ever had, the stuffed grape leaves and lentil soup are excellent, and the chicken, lamb, and steak kabobs are always favorites. But their menu goes way beyond Mediterranean food. Their chicken parmesan and eggplant parmesan honestly rival many dedicated Italian restaurants I've eaten at, and the portions are huge. The fried calamari and mozzarella sticks are excellent too. And you absolutely have to try the Athens Fries. They're seasoned perfectly and that dipping sauce makes them dangerously addictive. There are plenty of vegetarian and vegan choices as well, so it's a great restaurant when you have a group with different tastes. The restaurant and 21+ lounge are separate, which I really appreciate. If you just want a great meal with the family, you have the restaurant. If you want to hang out afterward, the lounge offers the same food along with a full bar, hookah, sports, music, and a completely different atmosphere. After more than 20 years of coming here, what impresses me most is that Paymon has managed to grow and evolve without losing what made the place special in the first place. It still feels like a locally owned Las Vegas restaurant where the owner and staff genuinely care about their customers. There are plenty of newer and flashier restaurants in this city. Paymon's has something they can't manufacture overnight: decades of history, loyal customers, great food, and genuine hospitality. Highly recommended. Come hungry because the portions are no joke! read more

Paymon's Fresh Kitchen - Drink? They got that handled trust me! - Greek Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

One of my absolute favorite Mediterranean restaurants! The food is always amazing, and today was extra special because Paymon himself stopped by, and chatted with us, after taking photos with another regular patron. The food is almost as amazing as he is! Of course, we had to start with the hummus because it is hands-down the best. I had one of my favorites, the gyro salad, and my husband had the chicken parm. Everything was delicious as always. I'm so glad this place is close to home because it means I can stop in every couple of weeks for my favorite dishes. Definitely one of my go-to spots! read more

We came here for some brunch today. We got the Mezze platter and figured we'll wait until we finish that before we order more. No way... it was huge and EVERY SINGLE ITEM on that platter was delicious. We were stuffed. You can order Italian, greek, Mediterranean, persian, or Indian when eating here. read more

Love, love love this place, especially on Halloween. Every single year I come and celebrate my birthday here on Halloween in the hookah lounge and every year it's awesome. It's such a pleasure to be served by Luis tonight. He's absolutely incredible. Just an awesome man and he fits here so nice. Our experience here tonight has been exceptional because of Luis! Congratulations to the owners for having such an awesome place I've seen it changed through throughout the years we grow and expand and so many different ways. read more

Service 5/5. Food 4/5. Ambiance 6/5. Ordered the Fesenjan which like others have mentioned is a bit on the sweeter side. I personally liked it as I have a big sweet tooth. We also order baba ganoush for the table that came with pita bread slices. My friend order the tandoori fish tandoori which had a nice tart lemony marinade over the salmon and roasted vegetables. Overall cool place and good food but a bit pricey. The hookah lounge is located right next door. Luckily areas are separated so there's no hookah smell wafting in while you eat. read more

Wow, Paymon's! I've been coming here for over 15 years, and the food is always fresh and delicious. Service is always top notch - Everyone is always so friendly and knowledgeable. For the ambiance depending on when you go it can be quiet to have a conversation or live music. Depending on what you are looking for Paymon's has it. This time, we started with the hummus and Athens fries. My wife had the chicken panini "minus the chicken," of course and as a vegetarian, she absolutely loves this sandwich! For my main course, I tried the shrimp scampi for the first time, and I'm officially a fan! For dessert, we had the chocolate fudge cake, which was the perfect way to finish the meal. Honestly, there's nothing bad on this menu. No matter what you order, you're getting something homemade, fresh, and delicious. After 15+ years, Paymon's is still one of my favorites! read more

I have loved this restaurant since they were on Maryland parkway! Excellent service from the nicest team. Water was kept full, food came out quickly, and was delicious as always. Didn't get fesenjan on this visit, but HIGHLY recommend that dish. Lots of parking, lots of seating, and they have the hookah lounge there too. read more

Serving Las Vegas since 1988 Paymon's Restaurant is as close as it gets to a local "institution," its longevity attributable to fair prices and the sort of Food that is "ethnic" but familiar and focused on good products made fresh daily. A labor of love from Paymon Raouf, the decision to change from a "Mediterranean Café" to a "Fresh Kitchen and Lounge" in 2020 seeing the menu expand into Indian and Italian options, plates still focus on healthy preparation eschewing additives and preservatives with options to suit most dietary preferances. Ordered as delivery, everything arriving temperature appropriate in individual packaging, the first thing one will notice is that instead of just Rice the Kabobs arrive with Roasted Vegetables and Potatoes with limited Salt but lots of seasoning to match moist but well-cooked Meats. Teamed with Jeff Ecker since 2000, a number of accolades earned since, Paymon's Baba Ganosh arrives chunky with lots of Garlic matched to bright acidity, though Pita is unfortunately no better than the store bought stuff. Looking next at Fesenjan, decent but a far cry from Zaytoon in terms of taste or consistency, dueling Desserts perform well whether one prefers thick Baklava with Walnuts or large-grain Rice Pudding with Whipped Cream on top that eats light like the versions in France. read more

Came here with a large group (more than 10 people), and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Reservations are required for groups this size and a card is needed on file, which made the process smooth and well-organized--definitely the right move for busy nights. The food was fantastic. The calamari was perfectly cooked--light, crispy, and not greasy. I also ordered the Broiled Kabob Trio, which was a great way to sample their most popular kabobs. Each one was flavorful, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. Service handled our large party efficiently without feeling rushed, and everything came out timely. Great food, solid service, and a well-run operation for big groups. Would absolutely come back, especially for group dinners. read more

I have been here several times since my last review. Most recently being today. I love that they continue to be vegan friendly and their food is very light and delicious. I have been having a hard time eating out lately due to dietary restrictions and I always feel good after eating here! My mini me also loves the hummus and olives. The combination platter is big enough for both of us and to have leftovers. The lentil soup was delicious and perfectly seasoned. read more

I'm gonna keep it short and simple. Great food. Awesome hookahs & lounge. Unmatched happy hour. The last few times I went, there was a delay worth getting out holla in a timely matter, but that's not enough to devour my wife and I from enjoying their menu in a relaxing lounge. They offer DJ's on selected days, but that's not for me. Enjoy and I hope this helps. read more

Walked in and was told to sit anyone without a reserved sign. Sat at a table, at the same time another couple walked in and sat at the one next to us. We were told the table was for 4 and we would have to move once another one opened up, okay no problem. 1. The other couple was never moved 2. Two other girls walked in and at where we were at and also were not moved 3. Both of these tables got their food, drinks and hookah before we even got our drinks. read more

So yummy, great chicken kabob, hummus, Greek salad, fresh bread large portions and lots of dipping sauces. Great quality food, friendly service and nice atmosphere. Sudy was our server she was so sweet and answered all our questions. Wonderful service and great food!! read more

A true neighborhood gem! To be a successful restuarant for 30 plus years they must be doing something right. the options on the menu cover a wide variety of traditional and regional food from many areas of the world. It's definitley should be your choice for taste, value and dining experience. read more

There is a regular restaurant section and a designated lounge for both hookah and food. This is a great late night place to hang out or do work. I would say that the lounge is a bit louder due to the music and there were strobe lights, which sets the tone for a great group hangout, but there were plenty of solo individuals doing work on their personal laptops. We love the food here and always leave feeling satiated. Both dishes had different sauces and rice, but everything was incredibly tasty. I cannot complain about anything that we ate tonight. I would say the hookah was a bit harsh for me, but it toned down after a bit and then I was able to partake. read more

BEWARE OF THIS GYP JOINT! I was shocked when I got my bill for a pita wrap and small, tiny salad! I had asked for a substitution for the French fries with my pita wrap; the waitress suggested a small salad. That SUBSTITUTION ended up costing $10.95. THAT'S OUTRAGEOUS for a tiny plate of lettuce, a few tomatoes and a sprinkling of shredded cheese The waitress should have informed me that it would COST $10.95!!!! read more

Took my mom here for lunch per her request. Neither of us had been for well over 10 years! We were both so happy that we received the same great service and food that we remembered them being known for all those years ago. We shared the large Greek Salad and Chicken Breast Kabab plate. Portions were plentiful and filling. The chicken was tender and cooked perfectly. The salad was very fresh. I didn't even need dressing bc the flavors were so vibrant. The roasted veggies that came with the kabob were delicious as well. Our server Pepe was always refilling out beverages and making sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely come back! read more

I dined at Paymon's for the first time with a group of friends last week and had a fantastic experience! The iced tea was infused with passion fruit and it was delicious! My entrée (chicken parmesan) was so tasty - chicken perfectly seasoned and surprisingly moist!! Everyone in our group ordered something different and we were all thoroughly pleased with our meals. Service was on-point as well. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to try other menu items! read more

I've never been to a Mediterranean restaurant in Vegas, but this one was amazing and I'll for sure be coming back! A friend recommended this place for Happy Hour, so we came here at about 5 pm. It wasn't busy at all. The restaurant is attached to a Hookah lounge and the happy hour is only in the lounge. I was a little concerned because I'm sensitive to smoke and don't like to around it especially when eating, but we went in and decided to see if we could handle it. I was extremely surprised to find how well ventilated the lounge is and that it didn't seem smoky or smell at all! We ordered drinks , jalapeño margaritas, Moscow Mule and Espresso Martini, they were all good, but that was the spiciest margarita I've ever had!! I like spicy so it was perfect!! For dinner, we got the Garlic Parmesan fries, the combination platter and the meatballs. Everything was so flavorful! My favorite was the jalapeño lime cilantro hummus, I could have eaten it all!!! The pita was soft and warm , perfect for dipping! The meatballs were delicious and not too dense, they were very moist and also flavorful! They have a magician that comes to your table and he asks if he can entertain you while you wait for your food. His name was Elan (sp) and he was fun and very good at card tricks. He does them right in front of you so you can really feel the magic! Our whole group was amazed by his tricks. The decor in the restaurant is beautiful and you can tell a lot of thought went into designing this space! If you're looking for a good happy hour or just some good Mediterranean food, I would suggest Paymons! I cannot speak to the Hookah since we do don't smoke, but everyone around us seemed to be enjoying themselves and the lounge had a great party vibe! read more

I've been a loyal customer of Paymon's for years--whether it's the Flamingo location for food, Eastern for patio hookah vibes, or Sahara for a full night out. But lately, I've been left wondering if y'all are trying to catch up with inflation all at once. First, I was surprised that both the hookah nd its refill were charged the same price--no refill discount, which felt odd. So I am paying $30 for both the hookah and refill? Where they do that at? Next came the calamari: $18.85 for a very underwhelming portion. I genuinely thought it was happy hour when I ordered it (because I've definitely had it during happy hour in April and May), and I was ready to laugh at how the "happy hour" portion was looking like a sad snack. But when I brought it up, the waitress said it's never been on happy hour--which is just not true based on my own receipts and experiences. I am disappointed in a local spot that isn't advertising changes. I bring friends here. I support this spot. But if the prices are going up while the portions shrink and the consistency fades, it makes me pause. Paymon's, you're starting to cost a lot of money--and not giving what it used to give. (I've got pics too, if needed. Just say the word.) read more
