everything went very very well, first rate customer service no being rushed, just a welcoming atmosphere inside and they have Everything You will Ever Need, a real "One Stop Vape Shop" plus all essential needs.. highly recommend Rhodium Smoke and Vape on a sliding scale of 1 thru 10 1 being the worst 10 being the Best Ever I will give this store a 12 why a 12 because these guys go the extra mile for their customers... THANK YOU Rhodium read more

I can't write this because my eyes are full of tears. Happy tears. I stumbled across this place today and truly am so glad I did. Walked in to get an item and the gentlemen Andy working could just tell I was not having a great day. He was so welcoming. Literally his only concern was to get me what I needed but more importantly to get a smile out of me before walking out. I walked into this store not caring about anything in my life anymore. Moral of the story. Just being a good good human and being real, can really save sometimes life. Truly. Thank you. read more

So thankful Jordan helped with my puffco, vapes, my special soda. I appreciate the service and quality, all products available. Recommend to everyone read more

Great shop, stellar crew. Great deal on hemp wicks that are normally like $10, & they're selling them for $4! Lots of cutie lil glass pieces as well. read more

Amazing prices on Shisha (MSRP!) especially Fumari. Starbuzz on par, would love to see if I could make a deal on purchasing a larger order at a discount. Coco Nara's are priced well too. however they may be getting swindled on authentic coals. These coals are heavily counterfeited. Though it could also just be 2 bad batches. Owners if you see this, I'd look into it. Huge selection of other items, small selection of Adult items (what?) and a nice little setup to come and browse. Other than that. I can't believe there's a review here talking about "FDA Notified." Why don't you just mind your own business and move on if you don't like something. This isn't the airport. There's no "see something, say something" mantra. Figures it would be a no-pic, 1 review, possible "fake" profile. Low cars beware, the entrance/exit off Baker is steep. You WILL scrape no matter what angle. Air up, or enter/exit on Randolph. read more

I've been a loyal customer at Rhodium Smoke and Vape for over 3 years, but after my most recent experience, I won't be coming back. I purchased a disposable vape that turned out to be defective right out of the package--it wouldn't even turn on. When I brought it back, the staff refused to refund or exchange it, even though I had the receipt and packaging and explained the issue calmly. It's extremely disappointing to be treated this way after years of giving them my business. A good shop should stand behind the products they sell, especially when it's clearly a defective item. Unfortunately, Rhodium has shown they care more about a single sale than long-term customer loyalty. Won't be recommending this place anymore read more

Great!! They had everything we needed for our hookah. Good shop to buy all the smoke stuff you need.

This is the only place I know of that marks UP their products by 25-30%. I came by to just pick up a small roll of hemp twine, it usually costs around $2-3 bucks for a small roll of RAW twine. I came in and they wanted $7-8 bucks. Complete utter rip off, I can only imagine how much other crap is highly overpriced. I'm going to recommend that if you read this, you can easily find any of the Up in Smoke shops either at Adams and Harbor, 19th street across from the DMV, or the one on Newport Blvd at Wilson street, or even the cigar shop next to Stater Brothers off of Baker and Fairview. This place is counting on the drunks from the bars and the breweries here on Randolph way, so if you're in need of some SERIOUS smoking supplies without being ripped a new asshole in your wallet, DON'T GO HERE. read more

Brianna was a great help! I went in looking for a new stem piece and bowl for my bong, they ended up not having the size I needed. Brianna helped me pick a new bong and throw away my old dirty one. Great service and great looking shop! read more

Andy's customer service is top notch and the selection is impressive as well. However, I give 4 stars due to the price. I am not kidding when I say their prices are much, much higher than my go to in Santa Ana. The prices are much more fair for the same products when compared to Rhodium's. read more

Rebekah makes this place stand out from the rest. So knowledgeable and patient with all our questions which at times must have felt like an interrogation since we are new to the hobby. They had plenty of different options. And the prices omg the prices are guuhhreat. read more

Andy is the goat! The most accommodating and friendly smoke shop. Everyone is approachable, welcoming, and very professional. These guys also have everything you need for a great price! read more

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!! Their Google and Yelp listings clearly state they close at 11 PM, but when I showed up at 10:50 PM, there were two people inside laughing and ignoring me when I knocked. After a couple of minutes, the guy finally came to the door and said, "We're closed." When I pointed out that their posted hours say 11 PM, he claimed the hours weren't updated. That's clearly not true since both Google and Yelp show the same hours. (Sunday sep 07, 2025 @10:50pm) read more

This place is the best. Easy in easy out nice staff. Shout out to Liz who always provides the best service.

i have been coming here for over 2 months since its so close from work and everything was perfect until one of 2 for $45 deals i got was dead battery. I went back on August 6th 11:40am. The guy with long hair wearing hat on saids he was the manager told me I do mot know what you did the VAPE! lol What can you do with a vape but try to charge it and smoke? Anyways not sure why you rather lose a returning customer for lousy $20-$25 vape??? Terrible Sincerely, loyal customer :) read more

ABSOLUTELY AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST. The days of me supporting this business are over and as a paying patron for over 4 years I am so disappointed at the staff here. Andy is the rudest human I've ever met. He was disrespectful in his tone when I asked if he could provide the matching offer that Davis previously gave me on disposables last month. He was rude, impatient, and absolutely disrespectful. Stay away from this establishment at all cost. The customer service is terrible, and I walked into this establishment ready to buy...Go somewhere with better customer service the prices here are absurd anyway. read more

Got the limeromance here, it's the most popular flavor and the owner is super cool took real good care of me. Also they got a lot of varieties of items you can choose from ! read more

The business is listed that it closes in half an hour from when I arrived but it was closed , we came all the way from Santa Ana to check this shop out and we come here to only be disappointed that it isn't open per their listing online, I checked on google, apple and yelp and all say the same business hours. And to top that off not even a closed sign posted. I understand that maybe they had to leave early for the night for whatever reason they may have had but at the end of the day it's about customers and you should at the very least put a sorry we're closed sign to help indicate that the business is in fact closed instead of having new customer walk around trying to see if each of the doors is locked or looking to see that the time they were using to go off of was correct for the closing time. read more

Great customer service. Hooked me up with a deal. Great selection. Fast and easy. I really appreciate their help

I've been coming here for 4 years. I love the staff, everyone has always been friendly & helpful with me. I have been vaping for a long time and l guess they stopped selling flavored vapes recently so that's a little disappointing. Thankfully they do still carry the clear ones which just taste like a light mint. read more

It's unfortunate they don't carry flavored vapes anymore but they made up for it with great customer service and informing me about what's going on #Fthefeds read more

Selling illegal vapes! The FDA has been notified! Also horrendous customer service. If you're selling something you shouldn't be selling then maybe you shouldn't tell a customer that info! read more

Rhodium Smoke & Vape - Storefront - Tobacco Shops Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I call ahead of time to ensure that I will have enough to cover the cost of the specific item I want and although i am told it will be $85 flat if I pay cash, I inform the employee I do not want to go to an atm to get cash and that I have $88 on my card. She said thats fine and I am told it will be $87 after taxes. Upon making the purchase, I enter my number for the rewards program and I am informed I have a $5 off reward and I choose to redeem the reward. Then the cashier tells me "sorry its going to be $87.98 even with the $5 off reward because of the card fee... To make matters worse, I look at the item to discover it is slightly different than the one I specifically had asked about and so it will not work for me. So I need a refund and then they tell me they can only refund me $85 since the card fee is separate. I understand the employees are perhaps unable to make the decision to give a full refund and that the mistakes of providing me with false information that they do indeed have an item when in fact it was a slightly different than the item I needed is an easy mistake to make but the owner ought to make things right with me as I am confused as to what happened to my $5 off reward and I shouldn't have to pay a card fee when the fee could have been reversed if the employees were adequately trained to provide refund to my card as opposed to giving me a cash refund of only $85 Especially considering I am a regular here and have spent thousands of dollars on glass here. Disappointed to say the very least, mostly that they didn't have my item and told me they did as I could have gone to their location in Long Beach or made alternative plans. Extremely unhappy and frustrated with this experience. To be honest, I have yet to have a good experience at this specific shop and the only reason I still return is because I loved the Long Beach location and now this one is closer to home. Hoping to hear from the owner soon.... read more

Not my favorite shop. The last two times I have lost money from their products- one of the coils from my 3 pack was missing. It happens so I let it go. The next time I opened my juice bottle and when I turned it upside down the entire lid popped off and ALL the juice came pouring on to my clothing and floor. That's over $40 in product. My roommate just bought 2 stiizy pens that were $40/each and BOTH were broken and did not fire. She took it back 4 days later (she works out in LA so it was the first opportunity she had) and the refused to exchange them or give her a full credit. I say go to Mesa Vape. Been going for years and their customer service is top notch! read more

Hey, I've been a regular for two years, even after moving to a new city I still come to the same shop. Last night, I got hit with a $700 charge instead of $50. Only realized it when my dad checked the screen on the register. I asked the worker twice about my total before he noticed the mistake. The weird part? He started saying stuff like, "You got money, most people's cards wouldn't have gone through." While trying to count cash to refund me he told me I'll call my bank since I used Apple Pay, making it sound like I will scam them for $700 since he about to pay me back in cash. No apologies, no info on how I'd get my money back no product no receipt. Things escalated, I got kicked out, had to involve the cops and my bank. As a business owner myself, I know customer service matters that's why I got $700 ok. This felt pretty disrespectful they were disrespectful to my dad as well (old man). Definitely filing a BBB complaint. Oh and I'm not welcomed anymore as this kid told me. read more

This is the best smoke shop ever!! If you need glass, papers, vapes, or cigars stop here. Alex helped me find my gorgeous new piece and it's my new favorite of my collection!! Incredible inventory. There are even imported snacks and drinks here, they literally have anything you would ever need. I will 10/10 be back here time and time again, and refer all of my friends here. I know they will be treated right! read more

Just so you guys understand customer service is one of the best things in this world if you can't get that right why run a business. Did you overcharge on every single department please go down the street to a different smoke shop there's plenty of them in town read more

Drew and Laly hooked us up. Very friendly and helpful! The prices are better than I have seen anywhere else. Came in for just a quick stop but got mesmerized by how fresh the shop looks! The new store looks so dope. Seen a lot of things that I have yet to see anywhere else. Ended up getting a new nectar collector and incense. They threw in a honey badger pop socket too! Honestly this is going to be my main store from here on out regardless of how far we have to go. Plus the point system that is second to none! Every dollar spent is a point, and once you get 100 points, you get $5 off. So basically go to this shop if you want the best experience possible. Every single one of my homies that ask what Smoke Shop they should go to without a doubt I'm gonna say rhodium! read more

I'm being nice with the 2 stars only because the worker with the Kendama has hooked me up a few times. Other than that, expect a different price EVERY SINGLE TIME. I get the same thing, every single time, Miami Mint Geek Bar, and sometimes it's $25 with cash, sometimes 29.XX with card, or even $31.XX with card, and today it was $30 with cash. Set a price. The worst businesses are the "price-per-customer" and this is one of those spots. read more
