The service was outstanding, attentive without being intrusive, & the ambience of the restaurant made the whole evening feel special.

that red rug alone creates the quintessential Iranian experience. The food is authentic. we got the 5-stews dish, all of them tasty. I'd prefer less oil though

I've been to this café several times, including twice recently - once with my parents about two weeks ago, & the last time by myself when I happened to be passing by. Each visit has been an amazing experience. The food, service, & ambiance are all wonderful. It's the kind of place where you can sit, read, & enjoy the music at your own pace.

Last time, I tried their fesenjoon & it was absolutely delicious. The mirza ghasemi was also excellent. made traditionally with barbecued eggplant, giving it that rich, smoky flavor I love.

The couple who own the café are both incredibly friendly, & their warmth really reminded me of home. I'll definitely be going back!
