I went on a Friday night with a friend, & we had such an amazing experience from start to finish. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with the warmest welcome & treated with so much kindness throughout our entire meal. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, & you could genuinely tell they cared about making sure every guest had a great experience.
The food was absolutely incredible. Everything came out fresh, beautifully presented, & full of flavor. The kebabs were juicy & perfectly grilled, the lamb was so tender it practically melted off the bone, & every appetizer, side, & piece of fresh bread was delicious. You can truly taste the love & care that goes into every dish.
One thing that really stood out to me was how clean everything was. I'm very particular about cleanliness, & as someone with OCD, I notice the little details. The restaurant was spotless, the tables were impeccably clean, & I could see the staff handled everything with great care & attention to hygiene. That made me feel so comfortable & allowed me to fully enjoy the experience.
The atmosphere made the night even better. It was cozy, inviting, & had such a warm vibe that made it easy to relax, enjoy great conversation, & take your time. It felt like one of those places where you don't want to leave.
It's not often that I find a restaurant where the food, the service, the cleanliness, & the atmosphere are all equally outstanding, but this place absolutely nailed it. Thank you for making our Friday night so special. I'll definitely be coming back & bringing more friends & family. If you're thinking about trying this place, do yourself a favor & goyou won't be disappointed! ❤?
The Barg quality was much lower than it was a few months ago. It was chewy & tough, making it much less enjoyable than my previous visits. I hope they can improve & return to the quality they used to have.

Si vous aimez la cuisine iranienne, n'hésitez pas à essayer! Le restaurant vous offre du pain frais avec fromage & des noix à côté.. Le goût est très bon & la portion assez gourmande..il y a des variétés pour choisir entrée, plat & dessert, je vous conseille vivement…pour les fans de la viande, bon kebab avec du riz est le meilleur choix!
Par contre je suggère à la gestion d'organiser avec plus de serveurs & des belles musiques pas très fortes.
