I had an amazing experience at Alborz. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with beautiful Persian décor that made the dining experience even more special. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was full of authentic flavors and perfectly cooked. I especially loved Ghormeh sabzi saffron rice.

The service was exceptional as well! The staff was friendly, attentive, and happy to explain the menu. It truly felt like a welcoming place where hospitality...

We've found our go-to spot! The Kabab Barg was incredibly tender and flavorful, but the Koobideh took it to the next level. The Alborz Special was truly exceptional. Don't bother looking elsewhere - this place is a gem! If I could give it a 10-star rating, I would. Plus, the prices are very reasonable compared to other restaurants. The kababs were juicy and delicious, unlike the dry, burnt versions we've had elsewhere. 100% recommended!"

As an Iranian myself I come here often with family and i genuinely love the food. I love their maste mousir yogurt in appetizers, their doogh in drinks, their koobideh of course and their gheyme stew with rice. I love the ambiance of this place, the lighting, paintings, and the quiet music and seatings. I don’t understand the bad reviews, this place is awesome!
