I ate so well yesterday 😋
I was genuinely surprised by how generous the food portions were. The dishes were flavorful & tasty, with a beautiful balance of sweetness, salt, & seasoning.

The decor & lighting immediately immerse you in the restaurant's traditional ambiance. There were live performers playing traditional music, which made the experience even more special.

We also had the traditional tea service, which left me in awe-it was such a beautiful & intentional moment.

The earthy flavors, generous portions, rich tastes, decor, & music truly transported me into their world & culture. I believe it's Persian, though I wish I had confirmed because the experience was unforgettable.
They absolutely nailed their vision & mission.

My friends & I recently had lunch at Rumi for the first time. Shaqir took good care of us. We began with their very tasty soup, followed by a variety of hot & cold messes (small plates) he suggested, served with different types of naan. Everything was delicious, including the Afghan pudding & Kunafa for dessert. We definitely would go back.

We used to visit Rumi every so often before Covid & loved their brunch. We came recently to see that their menu has changed. The food is not as tasty as before. Naan break is even worse than store bought. So sad.
