Persian recipes have matured over the centuries to bring the taste out of the fresh ingredients used to prepare the unique Persian food. Added on May 6, 2012 and last updated 8 years ago
★★★ An honest review- The owner/server wasn't very inviting and it felt like we were bothering him. The zaytoon parvardeh was very good (but we had to request the bread for it which is usually provided at every other persian restaurant- its like someone giving you hummus with no bread), but our individual entrees which were roughly 20 each were really really not worth it. It felt like the kind of meal I would pay 11 or so dollars for. Also, the pitcher of homemade doogh (yogurt drink) was good. In the end, the owner made us pay an 18% gratuity which should be for 5 or more in a party and there were only two of us which I felt was unfair as we should be able to decide for ourselves how much tip was appropriate. I was very surprised with the non hospitable nature and the average quality of the food especially since this restaurant is Zagat rated. Posted on August 28, 2012
★★★ This place was good, but I liked Narenj better. Nothing beats the Persian food in Los Angeles, CA. But i would try both restaurants and make your own mind up. Posted on July 14, 2012
