Iranian Restaurants near Encino, CA

“My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sadaf Restaurant, and what stood out to me most beyond the delicious food and warm atmosphere was the exceptional service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with genuine hospitality that immediately set the tone for the remainder of our visit.

Iman waited our table who was very attentive but without being intrusive, always checking in at the right time, offering thoughtful suggestions from the menu, and ensuring that every detail of our experience was perfect. It’s rare these days to find a team so dedicated to making guests feel welcome, and it left a lasting impression.
I genuinely enjoyed and appreciated the friendly and approachable attitude of Iman. It really felt like a true Iranian hospitality. The food was also excellent! We will certainly be back.“

“Awesome fun place with music good food, and fun. ❤️“

“Awesome spot for lunch (and dinner too I suppose)! I work across the street and come here all the time. The prices justify the more than generous portions, and you’re not left feeling like you got lied to. Flavor is amazing, always on point. If you work around the area, order beforehand and go pick up your food because it can get pretty busy during the lunch rush. 5/5.“

“the absolute best in the valley!! this food tastes like home! going to bring my kindred spirit to try your amazing food, ready @TiecTocc? God bless all! 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“I had chicken shish kabob expecting bone in chicken, but got boneless chicken breast and rice. Asked for the rice to be changed to salad and she graciously did so very fast. I liked th tender chicken and good salad. I really enjoyed the meal. The sits are very close to each other. You can’t have any personal conversations. It is a place to go eat and leave. The outside sitting is well placed for privacy. Altogether I would recommend this place and will go back.“

“My favorite Lebanese place in the valley. Hands down!“

“Taste of Tehran was my first time eating at a restaurant in Tehrangeles, and it was an awesome choice. This was definitely one of the best Middle Eastern restaurants I've been to in LA. Everything was so great. And yes, I ate a lot of food on the first day here. I started off with some of the stews that included gormeh sabzi, the gheyme, and ash reshteh, which were all very tasty. The surprise hit to me was the Lentil Quinoa Salad. Seriously, one of the best salads I've ever had. It was sweet, refreshing, and savory all at the same time. No words to describe. And then the meats: the koobideh and soltani plate, just fabulous, along with that lentil rice. I can honestly say that Persians make the best rice out of all Middle Eastern countries! Even the barberry rice was amazing. Never had a rice this sweet and fruity before! Overall, an amazing experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant. Don't be fooled by the looks of this place. It looks like a quick, over the counter order type of restaurant, but the food is top notch. Even Anthony Bourdain has been here! I shot a Youtube video of my experience here, which you can see on my Youtube channel, Rockstar Eater.“

“I love the food is my favorite restaurant“

“Highly highly recommend. Awesome food. Great owner. Great servers. Best babaganoush ever!“

“The Lule kabob is very juicy and tender! Full of flavor! Very friendly staff, ready to take your order. Catering services are excellent too. They are closed Sundays, but they may cater food for special events on Sundays is you ask!“

“Exceptional bakery. Beautiful packaging for an elegant gift“

“All……. Everything!!!!!!!!“

“todo está súper rico de verda selos recomindo yummy 😋“

“Biggest strength: staff is friendly and nice.
Biggest weakness: long wait to get food

The restaurant was empty when I came in and it took 23 minutes to get a chicken kebab plate. A bit too long to be the only customer.

The food is good. Not great, but not bad or bland either.

The staff is very friendly and nice.

Price-wise it’s average. 24 dollars (included tax and tip) for a plate is not cheap but sadly has become the norm here in LA“

“Very impressed with Javan! Service was so helpful and friendly, especially our server Victor. The food was outstanding and so fresh. The combination of flavors in the Alex salad was absolutely outstanding. Our vegetarian Koobideh was delicious. The hummus and babaganoush were perfect. Thank you - we will be back!“

“We got take out!!! THE BEST FESENJOON EVER. The chicken melts in your mouth…sauce is PERFECT. Wow!!!! Also got beef Koobideh and HOLY SMOKES! First time we tried and Will FOR sure be back. What a hidden gem - restaurant looks like they get prerry lively with a stage and band too so will have to try that. This PLACE IS GOOOOOOOODDDD!!!“

“We traveled to California and because of friends recommendation My wife and I chose Darya restaurant to have a quality time and happy about it .Thanks you Darya restaurant Specially Mr.Amin to help us at the restaurant and finding places to visit.“

“Have you ever entered a business and immediately feel like you just walked into your home where family is waiting to greet you? That was the very feeling I had when I stopped by the NoHo Cafe today. I knew the food was good as I used the delivery service before. Today I decided to visit the Cafe and I promise I’ll continue going frequently. The food is delicious but what won me over was the welcome and love you experience when you walk in the door. The staff is amazing... the Cafe has a very “welcome home” atmosphere. The complimentary cup of soup is AWESOME. I sat at a corner table allowing me to do what I love...watch people. As I enjoyed my delicious first meal of 2020 I watched as every person who entered was treated with care and joy. Just like being home the staff will keep checking to see if the food is ok and if you need anything. The NoHo Cafe is a place I recommend to anyone wishing to enjoy a good meal and to experience a “welcome home” feeling. Thank you NoHo Cafe for starting my 2020 with a reminder of the importance of kindness.“
