Perhaps the healthiest and freshest food, let alone Persian food ever had! Moreover, the staff Neda and Ali are so welcoming, courteous and go out of their way to accommodate our whole group. Definitely making this a regular spot πŸ™

We’ve given this place three chances, and unfortunately, each visit has been a disappointment. The restaurant is consistently short-staffed, and the service is painfully slow every time.
What really stood out in the worst way was the attitude of the woman with short black and white hair that I believe she’s the manager. Her customer service is absolutely unacceptable: rude, dismissive, and completely unprofessional. She made us feel unwelcome for simply asking basic questions.not recommended.

The food is so tasty, so affordable, and the portions are insane!! Oh, not to mention the complimentary chai! The owners are very friendly. A lovely place to get together and enjoy a meal and some chai.

I truly appreciate the staff who works hard and kind in this cafe β€” most of them are warm and helpful. However, I’m really sorry to say that my experience was tainted by the behavior of one lady who I believe was either the owner or manager.

She was the first person I interacted with that morning when I came to get breakfast, and unfortunately, her attitude was surprisingly unpleasant.

I hope this feedback is taken constructively, as first impressions truly matter β€” especially when customers choose to celebrate meaningful days like Mother’s Day at your establishment.

Love it

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!

This is the best persian food I have had in years. My family and I often come here to have unique dishes that are you know, traditional and well made. Portions are generous.
And everything I have had here was absolutely divine. πŸ™

The food was amazing. Kashko bademjan was verrrry delicious. Their fresh hot bread made the food even more enjoyable. They brought hot tea on the house before the meal and it was very pleasant to know we have hot tea to drink after our food. The prices were very reasonable. This place is 4.9 out of 5.

Vegetarian options: All stews have vegetarian option. Kashko bademjan was vegetarian as well and it was delicious
