Atmosphere was good, but the food wasn’t fresh. The koobide, chicken and barg all was dry! The only good thing was Doogh. Also the service was not good ( the waitress was standing next to me to pass the plate to her). Never recommended!!!!
I ordered ghorme sabzi, but it was not what we call ghorme sabzi. It was just lamb shank, not the traditional dish.
The Cornish chicken kabab here is absolutely outstanding. The meat is incredibly tender, juicy, and perfectly marinated with authentic Persian flavors. You can really taste the quality and care in every bite. It’s grilled to perfection—slightly charred on the outside while staying moist inside. Easily one of the best Persian dishes I’ve had. Highly recommended!
