THere were 3 of us. We have never been to a Persian restaurant. the waiter was very good in explaining the food choices. We all had different items off of the lunch menu. The servings were quite large and 2 of us took home enough for lunch the next day. The Cherry rice was different and enjoyable. We all enjoyed our meals and will go back. There is outdoor seating also. Inside was very nice and although quite a few people having lunch we were able to enjoy a quiet time and catch up with each other.

Food was delicious but service was uncoordinated. Delays in ordering and getting food, main dishes were brought out before the appetizers. In the end, asked if we wanted dessert, declined and given free baklava to make up for the mixup. Baklava is still sitting on my counter, we don’t eat dessert. Food was delicious though. And staff were very nice but but uncoordinated.

everything were great!! From the time you seat down and order appetizers and drinks, to the Persian tea and the desserts...the only thing that happened that night was the bus boy, took one of the appetizer plate and we were not really finished with it. He said, our dinner is coming now. It was not a big deal for us, because we are regulars there. But this is the first time that happened, maybe they don't want our dinner to get cold, that's why. Nevertheless, it was great!

We really love the food but the service is always bad. I’m always nervous bringing someone here because of the service. I didn’t even want to tip my usual 20%. I can’t figure out why it can’t better. I wish they could get it right so that the entire experience would be enjoyable.

We have dined here on many occasions. The young staff was inexperienced and spent too much time talking in the corner that the owner had to reprimand them. The food took about 45 minutes to come out of the kitchen with three tables taken. She had the audacity to tell us that there were too many take out orders. Really?? Where,we certainly didn’t see them. Very disappointed

Consistently good service and well prepared meals. Definitely try a variety of appetizers. Our favorite mains are the Cornish hen kabobs, lamb chops and fire grilled steak. The stews are always well seasoned. Their baklava is not too sweet and is a delicious end to the meal.
