Shout out to Baran Mediterranean restaurant. We had a superbowl/ 50th birthday party yesterday and everything was literally perfect. Food/staff/ decorations/ cake, everything was perfect. There's nothing I would change or do differently. We had a party of 80 and everyone has been texting today saying how good the food was. Go try them out, you won't regret it. Owners are pretty amazing too, super friendly and down to earth. Thank you Baran!!!!❤️

I recently found this delightful restaurant. It’s exceptionally clean and has a lovely ambiance. I highly recommend their buffet, which is available Monday to Friday. They offer a wide variety of dishes, including chicken, koobideh, gheymeh, and Albaloo polo, salad, soup. You name it!

The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming, making your dining experience even more enjoyable.
