Mohammad is a kind man with the coziest little shop. The jeweled rice in the Zereshk Polo with chicken is earthy and sweet from the pomegranate seeds, and the stewed chicken is tender, spiced, and so comforting. He says I have to try the lamb shank next time, so I can't wait to be back!

We had the naan bread with Chicken Tikka Masala, the beef Ghormeh Sabzi and the Lamb Shank. Everything was wonderful the Tikka Masala was exceptional! The owner was friendly and clearly cares about the food he makes.

Parking: There is paid parking on the streets directly in front of the restaurant, opposite and down the side streets. The street has other restaurants and bars on it so we had to drive past and turn around to find a parking spot.

If you look at the reviews it speaks for itself. Family owned and operated. The owner greeted me and took my takeout order. I could not believe it; he offered me a drink of water while I was waiting for my 15min food to get ready, and it was ready on time. It really makes you feel good going to a place like this. The food was awesome for the price.

This was our first visit & we weren't disappointed! The food was delicious. Honestly, the best falafel I've ever had. The service was great, super friendly. The atmosphere was relaxed & informal. The chai I had was the perfect sweetness. Thank you for being so accommodating to our group, too! ??

Kid-friendliness: We had our grandson with us & the gentleman (maybe the owner?) was so sweet & thoughtful. My grandson fancies himself a comedian at 10yo & they had a really hilarious banter. My grandson said this is is new favorite place & wants to visit often, sadly we live almost 2 hours away. Definitely next time! ❤️

Super nice man that runs the restaurant. It was just him for lunch today so things took a little bit longer for our party if 7 but that was the only thing that stood out. The butter chicken main and hummus app tasted great!!
