This was one of the best kabobs I’ve had in my life. The kabob was flavorful and tender, while the rice was cooked excellently and they had fresh bread! A lot of care was placed into presentation, with the rice shaped into a heart with a tiny tahchin as the tadhig (crispy rice). The staff was very friendly and kept refilling our water and getting things for us. I would 100% reccomend to anyone who wants good Persian food.

This place has gone down hill. The past couple times I ordered from Rose, I was disappointed. First off, the value is not there. I don't mind spending $100+ for a family of four as long as the food is fresh and tasty. Unfortunately, everything tastes stale even the bread was chewy and hard to pull apart. Tadig was easily a day old and the gheymeh that was clumped on top and microwaved was gross. I understand that stews are often made in advance but this was not acceptable. See the picture and judge for yourself. The barg, kubideh and chicken were all dry and left more to be desired. The barg/fillet smelled and didn't taste good so we couldn't finish it and had to throw it out. This place used to serve fresh delicious food and the chicken couldn't be beat. Sad that I have to cross it off my list now.

Not up to par, the jujeh soltani was undercooked to the point of being a health concern and the bread was not right. The server was kind, but clearly understaffed.

I love it so much! Food tastes so good and people who work there are nice! I even went half an hour before they close and they were very welcoming.

Amazing chicken kabobs, rice, bread and sauces. Everything else is only ok. Prices are expensive, however I am sure that is more to do with the lower volume of customers than a chain such as money dick.

Simple, this place has gone to be Sh!t now! The food quality and the service was horrible and the old man was grumpy AF going off. “ can’t please every buddy, buddy” said the old man.

We both had #9: the Ground Beef and Filet Mignon Kabob, I had the Fried Eggplant Dip and my friend had the Hummus. The food was really good, the Persian Iced Tea was refreshing. Will definitely go back and try other dishes.

We’ve been getting food from Rose for over a decade and it never disappoints. The food is delicious. Portions are very generous. I hope it stays around for a long time to come.

Amazing food and huge portions. Supporting a small business owner makes your money matter.

We have been going here for years. Recently the prices have risen and the plates do not resemble the menu as portions have been significantly reduced. The chicken used to have a wonderful texture but no more. The food is just ok. This is sad as we used to look forward to eating here. Minimally they need to update the menu so that it reflects what they are really selling.

The food was ok. They served me the hard burned rice at the bottom of the pan....why? The service was terrible. I heard this used to be good, so we must have gone on a bad night. You can get a better restaurant experience elsewhere.

Best chicken kabob I've ever eaten. The staff is very attentive and friendly. I ate there at lunch so it was not crowded and was quiet. Very good!

Delicious kubideh kabob and cucumber yogurt dip. Bread was little tough. I have had better Persian bread at other places.

I was excited to try this place. We tried their koobideh, chicken kabob, and fesenjoon. We were not too impressed with their koobideh. Chicken kabob was fine. Fesenjoon tastes like brown water with chicken. I won't go to this restaurant again. They are so many good options in the area. The people who work at this restaurant are super nice, though!
