We were in DC for just a short time and glad we went there.
If you are of Iranian background, you will enjoy the nostalgia, if not, the space had lots of stories to tell.
The Executive chef took the time to talk to us and give a tour of the top floor lounge with all the interesting pictures.
The food was great too. Order a few things to share with friends. It’s the Persian way!

Such a lovely Persian restaurant with a beautiful traditional atmosphere and amazing decor. Everything we tried was fresh and full of flavour, especially the Darvish Salad and pistachio soup. The service was excellent and Mohammad Reza made us feel very welcome. Definitely one of the best Persian dining experiences we’ve had in DC. Highly recommend!
