They have the best kabab in the area.
OM Persian Goddess!!! Being married to the most wonderful Persian American man for nearly 40 years, loving all things Persian, especially the FOOD and language, I can confidently confirm that the Persian Grill
Is among those at the top, the Greatest Of All Time (GOAT)! The Kabob Kubideh was succulent and moist, the Jujeh Kabob delicious and perfectly marinated in
Lemony Goodness. The Kaskeh Bademjoon was delicately balanced between smoky roasted ness and spices, the Mast-O-Moosheer awesomely sour but needing a little more Moosheer and full fat yoghurt for my taste. Only thing missing was fresh tanour baked lavash or Barbary bread. Afareen! Bareykalay! Kheiley Mammon! You take the rolette (cake)! You are worth the drive!!!
Staff wasn't very friendly. Didn't come back and check on us..just dropped food off. Food was ok. Pricey.

The only Persian restaurant in the Philly area. I can give the food a 3.5/5. Some dishes are better than others. For example, the Barg kabob looked nothing like a real Barg kabob but the Koobideh was good.
All in all, nothing special. But there is no competition so I'll take it :)

I moved across the country 14 years ago and this is still my favorite restaurant! I came for dinner yesterday and it's absolutely as amazing as I remember. I've never found anything like this restaurant in all the places I've lived - the food is incredibly flavorful and unique. I WISH we could get this in California. The Zereshk Polo is so good it haunts my dreams. VERY generous wine pour and reasonable prices for how great the food is! Can't wait til the next time I'm back in town and can come back!

The rating is only for the food, as our servers have always been extremely nice! Last time we had some leftover meat and our server even offered a little rice to take home with it.
Unfortunately, the food is not very good. The grilled meat is very dry and rice is usually too wet. Charred veg isn't cooked. For the zereshk polo, it tastes like they poured burned sugar or honey water on top of the chicken. Not very authentic.

Great customer service like always! Kebab koubideh and rose saffron ice cream are highly recommended ?

This is the best Persian restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. They also catered my rehearsal dinner and everyone really enjoyed it.

The people here are so nice and courteous. They treat you like they've known you forever. And the food is excellent. Always on time and fresh. If you're new to the area, it's definitely a hidden gem.

Picked up dinner for 4 adults. The cuisine is carefully prepared, healthy, and quite tasty. Unique blend of flavors that is niether Mid-Eastern, nor Asian, so while there are some familiar flavors, there are also some surprisingly different (and refreshing) combinations to delight the pallet.
