The food was decent overall, but nothing really stood out. We visited as a group of six, so we had the chance to try a variety of dishes.

The Kobideh Kebab was good, though I've definitely had better at a similar price point. The lamb, Chenjeh, & Torsh Kebab were all ok & well-cooked. A nice surprise was the complimentary soup, which was a thoughtful touch.

The service was on the slower side, but our server was incredibly kind, friendly, & welcoming, which made up for the wait.

The restaurant also had a warm, authentic Persian atmosphere that added to the experience. Overall, it's a pleasant spot for Persian food & good vibes, even if the food itself didn't quite wow us.

Outstanding & authentic. We loved the Persian rice, & all of the dishes which were well prepared. They brought excellent lentil soup before our dinner. There was music as well. It seemed that most customers were Iranian.
