We stopped by on a Friday night and we're lucky that, due to the rain, it wasn't too busy and we were seated immediately. We were just outside the front door but the space heater was just enough to make us comfortable throughout our meal. My husband has a nut and sesame allergy so we were a bit limited in regards to the Appetizers but we ordered the Spinach Dip made with homemade organic yogurt, spinach and shallots and it came with some Lavash bread and some cucumber and carrots. It was very refreshing and a perfect start of the meal.Their was four of us. Two of us ordered the Koubedeh Kabob plates, one got the Lamb Kabob and one got the Ahi Tuna Sandwich. All of the entrees were very tasty and a perfect serving size. The only complaint is that the brocoli, which was one of a few diffrent veggie sides, were a bit undercooked but otherwise the rest of the veggies were fabulous and the rice (which we found out was unlimited) was perfectly cooked.It was a very nice meal and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Overall 10 out of 10 would recommend.Dietary restrictions: My husband is allergic to tree nuts and sesame and they were very helpful and knowledge in the menu and could easily note what he could and couldn't order. While there were limits to what he could order for appetizers the rest of the menu had a lot of options for him.
It was SO good! The service was amazing and the owner is incredible!!! Highly recommend!

The food here is so good! I love their fish! The fish is never overcooked or dry. It's perfectly cooked, tender and moist with a crispy crust. And the best thing is that you're eating delicious food, knowing that it's healthy and good for you. I've always tasted top quality ingredients, cooked fresh to order there. It may take a bit to get your order if they're busy, but totally worth it! And if you order their hummus and lentil soup as starters, the timing is perfect. And I would highly suggest trying their dessert, the Persian icecream, sweet, creamy, and floral with rosewater, hints of saffron and crunchy pistachios. And there's a Vegan version! We tried both and both were delicious.

The food is amazing but don’t miss the tea or Persian Ice cream!
I had Lamb wrap. The lamb was top quality and melted in my mouth. My friend had the koubideh kabob and again the quality of the meat was second to none. Hameed was very attentive and gave us a lovely sample of cauliflower soup and he’s very passionate about the food served. Farhad was our server and he was an absolute joy! You can tell when someone enjoys their work. Fantastic food and wonderful service.Oh and no forgetting I had the chocolate tart for dessert….it was heavenly! Yum yum yum

Flavorful is a synonymous word and easily attached to Turquoise Restaurant!As some patrons have mentioned, the Owner frequently visits his Guests tables. He appears briefly enough to pour water (and wine), ensure satisfaction then moves on. He carries genuine care for his Patrons! A nice difference from, 'Sorry we are short handed, we'll be with you in a couple of moments'; followed by a server that disappears for more than 'moments'.I chose the Salmon Panini and a side of Vegan Lentil Soup. On a side note, I will not usually return to a restaurant if I can duplicate their recipes at home. In this case, I will return with Friends!

Friendly restaurant with amazing food. Babaganosh was large and came with delicious hot peppers along side. Plenty of pita for the dip. Sea Bass, a special was simply gorgeous - and tasted every bit as good as it looked. Creme Brulee was balanced and creamy - not too sweet - making it and coffee the perfect end to a Friday and a celebratory meal. Greeted by owner, wait staff perfect. While the meal is your star, you are clearly theirs.
