We had a great time, the owners were very nice & hospitable. I went with some friends for the first time & the host was kind & patient as they were ordering. They brought us soup, plenty of warm bread & even a complementary tahdig ghormeh sabzi (likely because we were the last ones there). The food was also great, it felt very homestyle & was reasonably priced. Overall, everything was fantastic!
