“Best Persian food in the East Bay. I have tried all of them. Fresh, delicious and made to order. Nice people and wonderful flavors. I had the falafel and salmon wraps and they were amazing. The salmon was marinated in advance of grilling and therefore had its own distinct flavor. The falafel balls were very tasty and the wrap bread used for both was original middle eastern bread. I've also had the meat plates and rice. The meat was tender and flavorful and grilled to order. The bolani was amazing, freshly made, and packed items ready to take home are also authentic and delicious. They have vegetarian & vegan options in addition to meat.“

“The food was really good and the service was decent. I was a bit confused about why there was duct tape on the long booth and why the books that the checks came in had torn plastic in them. Those things kind of threw the vibe off, but the food was really tasty. ?“

“Very cool ambiance! The cocktails were well crafted and the food was really flavorful! Only a few cons- the music was a bit loud so sometimes it felt like shouting to have a conversation and it was a bit surprising to only get one taco per serving for the price - but it was a very good taco (the saffron chicken).“

“Absolutely love the food here. Ingredients are fresh and the dishes are authentic. The only issues is the recent price increases are significant. Service is well meaning but can be inattentive, especially when dining in the patio. Overall recommend!“

“The food says it all. If you are in the S.F. Bay Area, you need to treat yourself to this delicious food. The ambiance is amazing too. Dress up if you like. It is an exotic and esoteric experience that welcomes casual and dressy alike. I find myself ordering takeout or catering. After you find your faves on the vast menu, try the catering too because you can get specific with your order and share with colleagues, friends and family. Here are a few of my faves from Chef Nigel: Oxtails Salmon Rice and Peas Brussel Sprouts with cherries Jamaican Jerk Chicken Salad“

“Food was wonderful and plentiful!We sat outside and it seemed like a struggle to get the attention of any server. They were friendly once we were finally able to get their attention, but I feel like it shouldn't be necessary to send someone inside in order to get table service (which we had to do multiple times).“
