Darya Restaurant entirely surprised us by their wonderful quality and her sweet hospitality as our first experience in Orange County! We also enjoyed the elegant Persian environment! (We ordered Darya 2 and was perfect!)

Had a wonderful evening here to celebrate my mom's birthday. She loves this place. I'm a picky eater, so the chicken and rice was right up my alley. The chicken was moist and tender and the rice was seasoned nicely. They did confuse my drink order, and it took a min for them to figure out what I was asking for, but all in all, it was a great evening, great food, great service.

Leila was exceptionally talented, courteous, and accommodating! She described the items accurately, and suggested amazing options! My son loved her, and the service just added to Daryas amazing food. Thank you for making our experience so memorable, Leila!!!
