Best Persian Food! And great atmosphere

by picky777 at Citysearch

I am very picky about Persian food. But I looove this restaurant. The decor, atmosphere is beautiful. The service is amazing. The food is delicious and they give you VERY big portions. The best items on the menu are: beef kabobs, salmon with polo sabzi, ghorme sabzi, gheymeh with eggplants, lamb shank, and mast khiar. The tadigh is also great. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone. I am shocked by the one star review... But I guess some people are haters.

The worst persian food ever

by aria787 at Citysearch

The waiter was horrible; he had an attitude and asked me if I had ate food at any of the surrounding restaurants. I said yes I had ate at flame, and he said there food is sh*t right. I was mesmerized, by the rude comment. Anyways, the koobideh was good, but it was not great. For the prices the that this place charges the food should be great. Other then that, we had to flag down our waiter to get refills on our soda, overall I would not come back to this place ever again

  • Pros: The manager
  • Cons: The prices, and the staff

Very good everything, but strangely empty

by poohbah at Citysearch

We just ate here for the first time and everything was great except that we were almost alone. It was very strange. The food was excellent and the staff was very nice. I thought the decor was pretty interesting and not "cheesy modern" like the previous reviewer. The decor might not be typical of this type of restaurant but it was nice. There was live music on Friday night starting at about 8pm I think - an interesting touch. Parking is easy as long as your car isn't too wide (park behind restaurant but VERY narrow ally)! Overall, it was great but it would have been a lot better if there were more people in the restaurant. If you want good Middle Eastern food with fast service and absolutely no trouble getting a table, try this.

  • Pros: Food, service, style
  • Cons: Being alone?

Amazing beef koobideh

by agentred at Citysearch

This is a nice restaurant with the friendly waiters working hard to please you. We ate on a Saturday night and a musician was playing live. But most importantly, the beef koobideh was amazing. The shiraz salad was delicious. I also had the pomegranate/walnut chicken with lubia polo, which was just perfect together after a dash of hot sauce. To me personally, the decor is modern but cheesy. The persian calligraphy is stunning.

  • Pros: Friendly staff, great food, easy street parking
  • Cons: Cheesy modern decor
