Nab is a warm, family-run Persian restaurant that immediately makes you feel welcome. You can tell there's real care behind the food here. The father of the family personally prepares the kebabs, & the whole team is incredibly kind, patient, & genuinely friendly with customers. Their hospitality feels sincere, not forced, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.

The Iranian rice is outstanding & easily the highlight of the meal. Perfectly cooked, fragrant, & flavorful, with an absolutely delicious crunchy tahdig. The aroma & taste of the rice alone are reason enough to come back - it's truly the restaurant's biggest strength.

The kebabs were good overall. The barg kebab had nice flavor but was slightly on the tough side, while the rest of the food was satisfying & well prepared. To finish, the sholeh zard was excellent - rich in flavor, beautifully balanced, & clearly homemade.

Overall, Nab is a lovely spot for authentic Persian food, especially if you appreciate high-quality Iranian rice, comforting flavors, & heartfelt service. A family business that puts soul into what they serve, & it shows.
