★★★★★ This is the best fast casual Persian restaurant in Irvine. It's not super fancy. It's not somewhere you would celebrate a special occasion. But it is a nice spot to go to for lunch. AND, just as important, it's open later than any other Persian restaurant in the area. And the (casual) service is just excellent. They give everyone complimentary tea/chai. Each order comes with a huge freshly baked bread. If it's not crowded, you can just sit down and play a game of backgammon for hours. I take my co-workers here all the time. Again, not super fancy, but if you're feeling casual Persian food or late night Persian food, this is the place. Posted on July 15, 2019

★★★★★ Muslims/tourists of Orange County: Have you wandered on to this site, looking for a nice Persian restaurant to try out? Look no further. Trust me. Go here. The food is amazing. The space is worthy of any occasion, no matter how fancy. I cannot recommend this place enough. Moreover, the restaurant is owned by a devout Muslim, there's no alcohol, and there's no doubt everything is halal. You may ask yourself--is there anything that separates this restaurant from the scores of other Persian restaurants in Orange County and LA? The answer: A resounding "YES!" Aside from being among the most high quality Persian restaurants in the area, this is the only Persian restaurant I've been to in OC/LA that has "rack of lamb"/shish lik, which is probably the most popular kabob in high end kaboberies in Iran. I would say this is probably the most high end Persian restaurant in Orange County that doesn't serve alcohol. As a result, it's a bit more expensive than most Persian restaurants. For my family, our go-to place to carry out Persian food to eat at home is Hatam in Mission Viejo (super high quality, also a nice place, but a bit more affordable), but Woodfire Kabob has become our go-to Persian food spot for dine-in special occasions.

★★★★★ I rarely give 5 stars. To me, 5 stars means the food was absolutely amazing, restaurant environment was nice, and the staff was pleasant. I've grown up in the United States and have had zabiha food from coast to coast. These burgers are some of the best zabiha burgers I've had in a very long time. The staff was great as well. My only regret is that it isn't closer to us, and that we didn't get more burgers to go. We will definitely stop by if we drive to Vancouver again. Posted on July 13, 2019

★★★★★ What can I say, this place was amazing a definite must visit. The staff is great. The food is great. Parking is not bad, there are a lot of side streets just around the corner if their lot is full so just take your food and eat there if you can't take it home or if home is too far. I was looking for halal chicken and waffles on long island for the longest time, and this place is a gem since there really aren't any halal chicken and waffle places. But not only is this halal chicken and waffles, but they also have other good southern comfort food items like munchers (jalapeno poppers like) and corn nuggets which were really good and a must try. We got the 6 piece (did 3 chicken and 3 tenders) with 2 waffles and 2 sides which came out to $15.80 and we were very pleased. The chicken is similar to the fried chicken you'd find at Palace fried chicken or Kennedy fried chicken when they are nice and crunchy. If you are 15 minutes or so away just order on the phone because this place gets busy. Their ketchup hot sauce is also really tasty for dipping the chicken. The waffles are really good and thick. It is a must visit place if you're in the area or even if you aren't just get out and go. Posted on July 8, 2019
