I don’t usually like to that. But honestly the lady there lie to me about what come with the order. And the food quality is below 1 star… I feel cheated lied to and not respected as customer. And when I politely communicated with her she you don’t have to worry about it don’t come back here again and I’m closing the restaurant. How sad is this?
Old pita bread dry and hard. When I was told it comes with Persian bread. Look at the photos tabbouleh is crappy…. Ruined my day especially after skipping lunch and having dinner late …

Been here twice while waiting for car maintenance at a nearby dealership and the food was amazing both times. Not an expert in Middle Eastern cuisine but everything I tried was delicious and the presentation was beautiful as well. Food arrived quickly after ordering and at just the right temperatures. Highly recommend the Faludeh dessert, frozen rice noodles served with lime juice that offsets the sweetness.
The restaurant is run by a friendly and attentive lady and her cute server robot, and the interior is quiet and clean.

We ordered 2 koobideh and one chicken. Rice was cold and very old( it was not cooked enough and tasted very awful) . Kebabs was very bad and testing lick rubber.
It is time for owner of the business to improve the quality of the food and get the customers back with much better needed quality.

The main course (Soltani) is overpriced and was not even close to what is supposed to be. Persian kebobs, especially Koobideh, requires lamb, AT LEAST a 50-50 combination of lamb and beef. In addition to being beef only, the Koobideh had too much onion and was pretty much tasteless. The Barg (beef sirloin) was also tasteless, too dry and cooked way too much (almost burned). Side dishes were okay but not good for the price.
Overall, the food is overpriced and bland. Having a robot server does not compensate for lack of quality. Strongly recommend trying other Persian restaurants. Will never go back!

We ordered food through Uber Eats for a gathering with friends, but unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations. The koobideh kebabs were extremely thin, and the entire order arrived in a messy state. The packaging was poorly handled, with the rice container only half-filled. While the quality of the chicken kabobs was decent, the presentation left much to be desired. Overall, I wouldn’t trust them again for hosting guests and won’t be ordering from them in the future

We needed a good option for a large family gathering with extended family coming to visit during the holidays. They were able to accommodate allergy friendly options and were attentive to dietary needs (eggless cuisine options). We luckily had the whole restaurant to ourselves (1 toddler, baby and 6 adults). The server/hostess/owners were very congenial and provided great recommendations for family size options. The presentation and plating was picture worthy. The meats including lamb, beef and chicken were marinated well. The napoleon dessert and Arabic coffee were a great addition! Wonderful hole in the wall and will definitely be coming back to order the lamb and steak again!
Dietary restrictions: Egg allergy options
Kid-friendliness: They were very warm and thoughtful with a toddler and baby, we happened to have had the restaurant to ourselves at the time. Our toddler liked the plain rice, pita, cucumbers and beef which was recommended. She drank lemonade.
