"Nice family vibe. Food is ok. Prices are good. Menu is not large but a good variety of choices."
"4.3 - Casual Eatery, Very Popular. I enjoyed the Eggplant Dip and Bread, as well as the Berry rice. Not too keen on the lamb backstrap though as I imagined it would be softer! Would love to try other types. I liked the interesting tomato but the Berry rice was definitely the highlight for me. Good Value meals and Customers seem very happy and content. A lot of people were ordering a drinking yoghurt although I didn't try this time."
"Came highly recommended, one of the least expensive Persian restaurants with a definite family atmosphere. Not that many people work there and at peak times it can get quite busy with noticesble delays. The yoghurt drink here is amazing and the more stewy options as well as the grilled ones delicious. Onion and pita are complimentary..."
"The taste is super delicious, the portion is large and the rice portion is generous. The koobideh in the restaurant is especially delicious and must be ordered. Great Persian food, highly recommended Persian restaurant. The only downside is that the recent price hike has taken away the value"
"The first time I have had Persian food and it was delicious. The lamb and chicken dishes were succulent and a delight to eat. And the rice, mixed with butter (I have never had that before), was wonderful. The poor waitress was run off her feet with the customers that just kept coming into the restaurant. That probably explains why the food took a bit of time to be served, but the wait was well worth it."
