Cafe Tehran offers authentic Persian food that feels like home style cuisine. The lamb chops are perfectly grilled, tender, and full of flavor, while the saffron basmati rice is aromatic, fluffy, and cooked just right. Fesenjan stew and Kashk Bademjoon are also highlighted, each served with rice, salad, and bread. Portions are generous and balanced, with fresh salad and grilled tomato completing the meal. Service is friendly and professional, and the staff accommodate dietary needs and even create a full size Saffron cake for corporate events. The atmosphere is pleasant, with low volume Persian music that adds to the ambience. Prices are competitive, and parking is convenient, with paid street parking available and free parking on weekends. Many guests recommend Cafe Tehran for its rich flavors, excellent portions, and consistent taste. It is a favorite for both casual lunches and corporate gatherings.
