The food took me on a nostalgic journey—just like many years ago in Iran. Authentic flavors, excellent quality, and a warm, friendly atmosphere with gracious service from the owner. We were welcomed with a complimentary saffron drink and unforgettable halim. Truly a wonderful experience—I highly recommend it!

I can’t emphasize enough how amazing this restaurant is, Ali-Agha’s hospitality is unparalleled. He warmly invited us in, and when he learned where my family was from he brought us a soup from our hometown (something we had never seen served in a restaurant before since it takes 20 hours to prepare). We ordered the shish kabob and Salmon kabob and they were the best we have in So Cal - and both were served with fluffy basmati rice. At the end he even brought us a traditional desert! 100/10 would recommend this place.

The juiciest Koobideh Kabob in San Diego, grilled to perfection and bursting with authentic Persian flavor. Indulge in a golden, aromatic Tahchin that melts in your mouth with every bite. And above all, be embraced by the warmth of a host who makes every guest feel like family. A truly unforgettable Persian dining experience

If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. The food is perfection. Every dish bursts with flavor, from the tender koobideh kebabs that melt in your mouth to the perfectly spiced stews rich with depth and tradition. Every dish is made to perfection.

This place is easily one of the best restaurants I’ve ever visited, Persian or otherwise.

Could not recommend it more!!

We’ve tried a good number of Persian spots around here — Bistro Kabab, Soufi, Aria, Orchideh — but let me just say this loud and clear to all my Persian friends: give this restaurant a try! We ordered the Soltani and Fish Kabab for takeout, and everything was solid. The koobideh in the Soltani was juicy and flavorful, the kabab barg was tasty (though it could have been better), and the fish kabab was absolutely awesome.
On top of that, the owner, which was so MASHTI, was one of the friendliest people I’ve ever met in a restaurant. It happened to be his special Halim day, and he kindly asked if I wanted to try some. Honestly, I said yes just because he was so nice — and wow, I’m glad I did. It was fresh, rich, and absolutely delicious.
If you’re in the area, please support this spot and its wonderful owner. Great food, and a true taste of Persian hospitality. Highly recommend!

Get the daily specials! You can't go wrong. I lived in Glendale for five years and work with colleagues who cook this food at home and share it at work. It's like getting a taste of a home cooked meal every single time.
