DanielOctober 15, 2017Great assortment of authentic Persian cuisine. Great appetizer menu, except the Shirazi salad not being made Persian style. Barg kabob is sublime, koubideh nicely compliments their perfect rice.
Christina NawabiOctober 29, 2016The portions here are good and the food is delicious. A bit on the pricy side, but overall worth it. But beware: they don't have any white sauce here!
Leo FuentealvahMay 20, 2013The chicken stew with pomegranates and nuts is very delicious! The beef stew has something on top, I think it's a truffle, be ready for an explosion of flavor in your mouth!
🌺 شJuly 9, 2021Food was authentic persian cuisine.,fresh and delicious Service was friendly and on point. As a native I highly recommend this lovely restaurant 💕
SaleemOctober 12, 2016Rice with sour cherries is great (though a bit sweet). Sirloin barg kebab was solid, but get them to cook it med rare at most
Michael Fox-RabinovitzJuly 11, 2015Very nice Persian restaurant, good decor, reasonably tasty menu, little weird serving staff as in totally non Persian in style etc
Alyssa B.December 18, 2016Stumbled here by accident and was surprisingly good! Great taste and service
Suzana UenoJuly 16, 2011Nice iranian Restaurant love The meat but The cherry rice & orange raisin rice is sweet and I prefer regular rice. Do order the trio yogurt!
- Allison KimJune 10, 2011Sour cherry rice is relish! Try the chicken pomegranate stew and the lamb shank for entrees! Bakalava is to die for.
Courtney CJune 4, 2013Get a sampling of the appetizers and salads. They're delicious and very filling!
Yummy and decent pricing - including wines at $6 by the glass!
katwiththekMarch 13, 2019Don't Eat Here! We spotted a mouse running across dining room. We reported to server but he didn't care. His reaction was "are you sure?" "well, it's New York, what can you do?" (See review in Yelp)
Rahmin PavlovicJuly 9, 2010Ask for tahdig (sounds more like ta'dik). Not on the menu, bit they serve it. Delicious!
Kate FurmanMarch 23, 2015Great service, excellent wines. Come here with a large group of friends and split entrees.
Gabbie ChamorroMarch 21, 2011Definitely try fesenjoon, authentic Persian dish and legitimately delicious. Best if shared w the table. Muy bueno.
