“Been coming here for years for lunch with co-workers. Come here once in a while with my wife for dinner. The place had a kind of Parisian bistro atmosphere in the evenings. There are many Persian delights on the menu, but I come for the Fesengen. Service is always friendly and excellent. Sometimes I call it in and pick it up on my way home to eat at home.“

“Food Courts restaurants are NOT my favorite places to order food. I just didn’t know ad I was visiting the area where I found ZOOD online search.

At any rate, my order was
Falafel Rice Plate $15.00
Hummus $0.00
All Salad/No Rice $0.00
Cucumber Yoghurt $0.00
Tahini $0.00
Subtotal $15.00
Sales tax 7.75% $1.16
Total $ 16.16

To my pleasant surprise, BOTH the Cucumber Yogurt along with the Tahini sauces were tick in consistency as they’re supposed to be. They were NOT watered down like most other Mediterranean restaurants.

Their online order system was easy to place your order. In my case, I used “Clover” application as my favorite whenever the restaurant gives this option.

See attached photos and one video for the restaurant and its location within the food court.

“The best persian food spot in all of Laguna Hills/Mission Viejo, in my opinion. Love their authentic beef koobideh, ghormeh sabzi, and all their special rices. The bread is delicious too and they always give you plenty. When not eating in, we love to pick up their family special platters, which are affordable and can feed many people. All around a fantastic place!“

“Food was excellent! One of the best tasting lamb shank & baghali polo I've had, and I've had this dish at a lot of Persian restaurants. Although my meal didn't include it, but my friend's order included freshly baked naan-like bread. Highly recommend this casual eatery. They also offer family style food at a reasonable price. Perfect for those nights you want to serve a good healthy meal to your family, without having to spend hours in the kitchen.“

“Great value to flavor ratio. We visited on a busy Saturday evening and service was a little spotty, but the food more than made up for it. We were first given some housemade naan with butter. From the dining hall you could see a staff rolling out the naan dough and placing them in an oven, so I was excited to try it. The naan was sweet and fresh, my own qualm is that when it cooled it became stiff very easily, and would have preferred a house special dipping sauce over the butter.

The portions are huge, so we ordered one appetizer and one entree which was the perfect amount for two people. This restaurant has really gotten the texture of meat right; both dishes stood out for the tenderness of the protein. The koobideh was juice and soft, and the lamb neck was completely fall off the bone. The appetizer had a great smoky flavor, and the heaven stew had a rich tomato base. I think one area of improvement for me might be the diversity of spices; the eggplant was a good dipping sauce but had a slightly too overpowering garlic flavor and the pepper and tomato could be flavored with condiments other than salt to add layers, and I would have preferred the stew to have a slightly thicker consistency to condense the flavor.“
