“Delicious big manly portions. Dametoon garm. I was told about this place some 10 years ago, but never had a chance to try it out. Don't expect a big fancy place, it's rather small, (I think they do a lot of catering services), but the food was delicious. I got a soltani and my friend got Baghali polo with lamb shack. We also had some kashke-Bademjon and roshi. The food was juicy delicious. Service is fast and friendly. For non persians: Darbari means "it's from the Royal Court". Implicitly meaning the King's type of cuisine. The restaurant carries well the name. Go Darbari!“

“Sometimes the simplest foods can be the hardest to prepare well, yet Point 11 Kabob accomplishes this and elevates the process to an art form. How to create a perfect dining experience with beef kabob, rice, and a tomato? Using quality ingredients and traditional cooking method help. The meat was superbly seasoned and cooked, and it's full of flavor and never dry. The rice was fluffy and light, but nuanced with fragrant spice and butter. The grilled tomato was so juicy and roasted that it's the best accompaniment to the earthiness of the meat. Even with the takeout order, we were supplied with two packets of sumac to sprinkle on our beef and chicken kabob. We ordered ahead by phone and the chef was just putting on the finishing touches when I arrived. The food was piping hot even after the 18-minute drive home. The dining area was spacious, and there were a few tables outside. Parking was not an issue in this shopping center.“

“The chicken skewers portion much smaller than in the photos, however, overall quite tasty.It's a single man (owner/server) who is trying his best to serve but it took a long time to get the food out... need patience...If I'll ever go back then maybe I will put the order over the phone so it will be ready when arrive.“

“Literally, my favorite place to eat. I'm sad that I only recently discovered this gem of a restaurant. Bobby and Soheila are fantastic people. I'd recommend the hummus, best ever. Also, ask about their stews. Their fesenjān will change your life. No hyperbole here, try it.“

“I’ve been coming to this place for 8 years, and they serve really good Persian food at reasonable prices in comparison to other locations around the area or in Orange County.My favorite combo is #34. If it’s your first time trying coming here I would start there. You get really good grilled boneless chicken with beef koobideh (ground beef- really good) and jasmine rice which is really great together. You also have the option of getting half salad instead or all rice. In addition, it comes with naan flatbread which I think pairs really well with the food.Parking: Unfortunately the only downside to the location are the limited parking spaces available. Depending on the time of day sometimes you may have to park on the street.“

“I've come here a couple times and ordered to go. Their grilled kebabs are exceptional. I ordered the family platter which comes with grilled meat kebabs and chicken kebabs. They were tender and juicy. Absolutely delicious. However the portion was small and not really meant for a family. Tried a couple of their sweets for Eid and I loved them too. Authentic middle eastern food.“

“I absolutely adore how Hen House keeps its doors open late. When hunger strikes in the wee hours, it's my top choice. While the menu leans toward the pricier side, the quality is exceptional and worth every penny. Their hummus is perfectly executed, and paired with naan, it's a delightful combination. The rotisserie chicken always impresses me—the skin is consistently crispy. They truly excel in the art of chicken cooking! ?“

“A beautiful and unique restaurant. Extremely clean and looked brand new. Attentive and polite staff. My husband enjoyed very much his dish Polo koobideh with rice. My order polo koobideh wrap was just okay (a bit much fattening dressing) but I am not an expert in Persian cuisine. The unusual draw back to our first time here was the overwhelming fume from the Simple Green cleaning solution. We drove off for few blocks but still FELT the smell was with us. I wish an alternative cleaning liquid will be used.“
