Iranian Restaurants near Woodland Hills, CA

“If you’re a fan of authentic Persian cuisine, especially Koobideh kebab, look no further — this restaurant serves the absolute best koobideh in the area. Perfectly grilled, juicy, and full of flavor, their koobideh is cooked to perfection every single time. You can tell right away that they use high-quality meat and traditional spices, staying true to the original Persian recipe.

But it’s not just the kebab that stands out — the rice (chelow) is absolutely delicious. Light, fluffy, and aromatic, it complements the kebab beautifully. The salad is fresh and crisp, adding a refreshing balance to the richness of the main dish.

The interior of the restaurant is truly impressive — beautifully designed, clean, and full of character. It creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes the dining experience even more enjoyable, whether you’re there with family, friends, or on your own.

I highly recommend this place to anyone who’s craving authentic, high-quality koobideh kebab in a setting that’s both cozy and elegant. Once you try it, you’ll keep coming back — it’s that good!“

“Dining at Kourosh was a pleasant experience. The menu is extensive with both flavor & affordable pricing. The best time to come is during lunch hours. I did forget to take photos of the food but I can guarantee it looked & tasted great. Kourosh doesn't play around. They have a beautiful interior of the restaurant with music that elevates the experience. I had a wonderful time speaking with Mary; their manager. Who provided excellent service & a warm atmosphere. You won't be disappointed. I'll definitely be back for more.

Parking: The restaurant is located in a sizeable plaza. Plenty of parking can be found & there is a residential area nearby that could be used for parking in case of a busy lot. Otherwise, the lot is more than sufficient.“

“The lunch special is a really good deal as the food is always hot and delicious. The long grain basmati rice is extremely soft and so delicious. The boneless chicken kabobs are super juicy and cooked to perfection. We also tried the ghormeh sabzi and the gheyme and they were both very good!!! one of my favorite hidden gems on the west side of the valley. The owner is very kind and sweet as the food is made with love.“
