“Beyond excellent! Anything they cook is delicious high quality, flavor(real Persian taste), stuff very friendly, clean (tables,restrooms), definitely I’ll be back, back again, again and again, price(for what the do is very affordable)“

“Delicious, really reasonably priced. The ghormeh sabzi was perfectly seasoned and so tender, and the addas polo was amazing — onions caramelized to the point of tasting like candy. The portions are generous and the prices were very reasonable.

The two women working when we visited were extremely friendly and warm. I will 100% be coming back.“

“When I first found out I could get my favorite Persian soup — the dreamy herby barley packed ASH-E-JO — delivered from Little Tehran up to my place in hills via DOORDASH, I was excited. The soup was everything I hoped for. I just ordered it again tonight. Hooray for LAZIZ GRILL and @doordash“

“We used Naar Kitchen for our party catering two times. Both times the food was delicious, fresh and well prepared. The quality and taste are fantastic. The owner, Mehdi, is very friendly and helpful. We ordered Tahchin, gheime, ghormesabzi, celery stew, mahiche, kabob. All of them super tasty. Everybody loved the food and ate so much of it! The Tahchin is out of the world, tasty and beautifully decorated. Service is on-time and food is hot. Thank you Naar Kitchen!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!“

“All……. Everything!!!!!!!!“

“Nice food, cooperative staff“

“The lunch special is a really good deal as the food is always hot and delicious. The long grain basmati rice is extremely soft and so delicious. The boneless chicken kabobs are super juicy and cooked to perfection. We also tried the ghormeh sabzi and the gheyme and they were both very good!!! one of my favorite hidden gems on the west side of the valley. The owner is very kind and sweet as the food is made with love.“

“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.“

“I tried the beef shawarma plate here for lunch and it was delicious. Some places the flavor shifts are you dive into the plate, but this plate had a very consistent and satisfying taste. The staff is busy. The place has a very busy vibe to it with just a few people here.“

“It’s not a fancy or luxurious restaurant, but the food is really good. The koobideh is tasty, juicy, and well-seasoned, and the chicken is good too. Overall, the food is definitely worth trying.
Don’t expect fancy customer service, but the staff are friendly and welcoming. One nice thing: there’s no need to pay a tip!“

“I had a wonderful experience at Koroush Restaurant! The service was excellent from start to finish. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and attentive, and they made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit.

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the overall experience was outstanding. It’s always nice to receive such great service and feel genuinely welcomed as a customer.

Thank you to the entire team at Koroush Restaurant for making our visit so enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be coming back!“

“Hello: With my apology to the owner and staff of Darya Restaurant in Santa Monica I wrote a bad review about 12 days ago. It was my misunderstanding to write a bad review. In fact, It is a good restaurant (5 Star) with excellent, well made, good ambiance, and delicious food and a vast array of dishes on the menu. I must say that their portions are generous in comparison to prices. I ask people to give them a try at least once and see for themselves. I think they are going to be hooked. All branches are good and the Orange county branch has a great ambiance! Thank you Ms. Darya and your staff for your efforts. I will see you again, indeed. Wish you all the best to come!

The quality of the fish was outstanding, and every roll was full of flavor. It made my birthday meal feel extra special. I’ll definitely be ordering from here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for high-quality sushi!“

“Food is really good, good prices, lot of food“

“I got the ground chicken skewers for dinner. The food was good. The price is great for the amount of food you get. I got 2 skewers, rice, a salad, hummus, pita bread, & a sauce for the salad. The sauce that comes with the salad is especially good. The service we experienced was also good. We ordered online and the food was served in a timely manner. Overall, this is a good Mediterranean restaurant for a nice, casual meal.“

“I’ve been going there to shop for halal meat since at least 20 plus years. I always heard that their prices are very high. I have gone to other meat shops in this area and tried to track the prices for some main items. After my own experience I’m convinced that their prices are usually reasonable.
The meat is always fresh and they have all kind of meat in stock but unfortunately it’s not the same for the other grocery items.
Their goat meat is the best in the area. We have been doing udhiya (qurbani) with them since a few years and every time the goat is really good, no smell, even the picky eaters in my household enjoy the goat meat.“
