Iranian Restaurants near East Los Angeles, CA

“The food es excelente!! My first time buying there, definitely worth it!!“

“As a Persian American, I am so glad I found this place. It offers something I’ve been wishing for my whole life, modernized Persian food. Traditional is unbeatable, but I’ve always wondered what it would be like if people took those recipes and updated them. Azizam offers that. I came specially for the kuku sandwich and it was excellent, simple and very fresh. Same with the shallot yoghurt and Kipteh. We also tried the secanjaben spritz which if you like those flavors you will love. I really love this whole concept and would love to see more dishes! The ambience is friendly and warm. Highly recommend.“

“First time coming here and the food was fantastic. I honestly can’t wait to try their other offerings. Located on the east side of Glendale Ave, just north of the freeway. Small parking lot, but street parking is also available. Outdoor seating is also available. The lamb shank was calling to me and I absolutely enjoyed every bite. Substituted for a different rice as well.“

“This place is a mom and pop restaurant, and the owner is a wonderful charming man who makes the best sandwiches. The food is clean and very delicious. The fries and fry dip, cheeseburger, mushroom cheeseburger, the olivier salad, and homemade pomegranate juice are must haves. In this age of low quality fast food, these places are rare gems. The food takes time to prepare, but quality takes time.“

“rica comida , se las recomiendo“

“Toda la comida está deliciosa la nieve 🍨 omg riquísima“

“The food is great, reasonable prices as well. The service was good, the atmosphere could be better. Unfortunately at the time they were out of many of the food options.

Parking: Paid parking but hard to find.

Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly area.“

“I'm at a loss for words, but I'll try my best. Food? Amazing! Perfect amount of seasoning and the portions are huge! And this is coming from a big dude. For the appetizers, my favorites were the Kashk E'bademjan (Eggplant Delight), Potato Salad, and the Hummus! They have more selections, but this is what I was able to try. I hear all are great! For the Entrees, ALL OF THEIR KABOBS ARE FIRE (MMM MMMM YUMMY). I had a sample of most them and in the islands, we would say "broke da mouf kine", which translates to, the food is *beep beep* GOOD! If you've never had Persian Food, or you love it, this is the restaurant for you! Drinks? I love Korean Soju and Cass beer, so yeah, +10 points from me. They do carry various Wines and Beers though...and of course your choice of Soda Pop. Atmosphere? It' gives you a Kewl Kids Vibe; a classy place where you can be yourself with family and friends and just enjoy each others company. You have your choice of Indoor and Outdoor dinning which is amazing. There's also a private room upstairs that can hold 20 people for a meal and karaoke (there is a fee to reserve, but very much worth it). Staff? We were greeted at the door as if we were coming home. Pasha and his staff go above and beyond to make sure all your needs are met. Their suggestions on meal and drink pairings are spot on. I can't thank Pasha and the crew for making our group outing a success. Overall? I'll be going back and I hope that you add this restaurant to your list of 'go to' places to dine at. You will not be disappointed, I promise you. (Unless your attitude stinks or you're not willing to try new food ‍) Pasha again, thank you so much for the hospitality. I already told Fatemeh that I'll be coming back again. سپاسگزارم“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We go for the trout and beef koobideh! Fantastic food and warm, friendly service.“

“First time there and has a good experience 👍“

“Todo muy rico y caliente 🔥 buen servicio“

“Probably the best Mediterranean food I have ever had. I tried the chicken kebab—it was delicious. The chicken was flavorful and cooked to perfection. The rice was flavorful. Hummus was amazing. The side salad with the beet dressing added the cherry on top. Will definitely be back!“

“Great food fast and great service“

“The wine bar you wish you could stumble upon every night! Great Persian food- you can tell they use fresh farmers market produce. And arguably the best natural wine list in town. This spot is a real gem. Get the Nazkhatoun (eggplant dip) w/ feta, Ghormeh Sabzi or the Fesenjan - both delicious stews. And their tarts for dessert are excellent.

Vegetarian options: Nazkhatoun (eggplant dip) w/ feta, Ghormeh Sabzi, shallot dip, Shirazi salad (cherry tomatoes and cucumber), cucumber dip

Parking: Their parking lot is just south of the restaurant on the corner of Virgil and Melrose“

“Das Essen war reichlich und sehr lecker“

“Forget about the rest. Try the best“

“We are so happy we found this place in Glendale.
Their food is authentic and amazingly delicious.
Their shish kabob, chicken, and lule is the best from the many we have tried over the last five years.
The owner, Harry, is such a nice person and it shows in the food he makes.“

“York Kabob deserves high praise for their exceptional customer service. Despite the initial oversight of forgetting to include the stew in my order, they promptly rectified the situation by delivering two kinds of stew to my doorstep at no extra charge. Their attentiveness and willingness to make things right left a lasting positive impression. The food itself is delicious, with fresh ingredients and perfectly marinated kabobs cooked to order. York Kabob's commitment to customer satisfaction is truly commendable, making them a standout restaurant in this area

Vegetarian options: Ghormeh Sabzi“

“A++++++++++++++++++++++++“

“We were invited to this restaurant. Food was average. I had better Persian food. It was on the blend side. They will spice it up of you tell them.
Service was not up to par. The lady who took our order was confused. Our host repeated it a couple of times. They also mentioned to serve everything on a family platter. However it can as an individual dish. The host was upset as they come here regularly and this was not what they expected for their guest. We assured they it is fine.
The kabob and kubbedieh were very soft and juicy. They also serve extra butter. Kids enjoyed the fried and burger. They said it was good.
They have a nice spot for salah. I wish it was bigger for more people to pray. Us ladies had to wait along time till the guys are done.
Restaurant is very old but clean and taken well care of.

Parking: You have to park on the street next to the restaurant. It is hard to find during peak hours.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access but hard to maneuver inside the restaurant.“

“One of my top favorite Mediterranean places to go. My go to is the Lamb Gyro Plate with the Dolma's. The serving size is worth the price. It's super tasty and amazing service.

Wheelchair accessibility: No steps to get through the door. Super easy“
