Our recent visit to left us with unforgettable memories and a full stomach! First and foremost, let's talk about the food – it was absolutely delectable. The portions were so generous that even one person couldn't finish it all in one go. Now, onto the atmosphere – It's clear that it is a local favorite and always packed with hungry patrons. However, what made our experience truly memorable was the service. While we did encounter an unprofessional server initially, our server Patric, came to our rescue. He provided us with exceptional service, ensuring our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. One small hiccup occurred when we requested normal water for our toddler, and the initial response from the other server was, "we don't have any such water." But thanks to Patric, our little one got the water they needed. The food was so mouthwatering that we couldn't wait to capture some pictures to remember this delightful experience. Overall, despite a minor bump in the road, our meal at [Restaurant Name] was fantastic, thanks to Patric's outstanding service and the scrumptious dishes that left us wanting more. We can't wait to return! 🥂👌

The restaurant offers a cozy atmosphere with good food, though it’s not particularly upscale. We encountered an issue with the lamb chenjeh, as it was undercooked and pink inside. After requesting it to be cooked further, it was unfortunately returned overcooked yet still pink. However, the other dishes were delightful. The kobideh, shishlik, and lamb shank were all enjoyable. A highlight was their fresh bread, which was absolutely delicious and available for purchase to take home at $1.50 each.

I usually don't write reviews, but I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for AR, the manager at the Vienna location. He went above and beyond to assist me in selecting the perfect menu for our special celebration at my dad's birthday party. Despite us celebrating in the comfort of his home, AR ensured that the food was catered and prepared to perfection. His exceptional service truly made the occasion memorable.

Best Iranian food in the area!! Absolutely loved it and will be coming back again. The plates are so big that you can't possibly finish it, it's a lot of food per plate, totally worth the money you pay.

Me, my mom, and my little brother were the last-minute customers there two days ago because we were hungry and desperately looking for something good late at night, and boy did we end up with a feast. "Scrumptious" would be an understatement for the food. Since we went there not too long before closing time, we weren’t expecting too much, but they exceeded our expectations by miles. The bread was fresh and topped off with green chili and butter; it already got our dinner started off with a bang. Then came their chicken kabab, chicken tandoori, and chicken soltani, and the meat was so tender it would just melt in your mouth like butter. Well-seasoned, delicately served, and the spice was in harmony with the chicken itself. Complement that with their Persian ice cream, and there you have the perfect Persian dinner. I even liked how they took their time to keep the spoons in a glass of ice. The service was prompt but not rushed by any means. The atmosphere is spot-on, which adds to the character of the restaurant. You guys should consider staying up a bit later. I'm pretty sure anyone would enjoy this place, especially late at night. I noticed that the employees were trying to close because, obviously, it was closing time. But they were efficient enough to dish out fresh food in a timeframe when most food places might slip. Overall, 100/10 for the effort they put in. I'll definitely come back for more.

They have expanded so there is more room and tables. I love the food. Our server was a little distracted and left us without refills but the food is always great. The Shirin Pollo is my favorite rice with orange peels and pistachios. I get the tandori chicken with it. The Zhoug is delicious and have not been able to crack the recipe!

Delicious Persian dishes (particularly kababs) served in a nice and environment by friendly staff. Very clean and family friendly atmosphere. We tried Koobideh and barg and they were both very delicious and flavorful. The portions were very generous and you get a freshly made bread as starter. I strongly recommend.

Bustling crowded place but they won't turn you away. We still got seated immediately. The food came quickly and the portions were huge as well as not expensive at all. The service was fast, nice and explained when necessary. Tried several dishes and things to go. Extra sauces, condiments, drinks, no problem. This place serves no alcohol but lots of traditional food and drink.

I love the starter bread. The lamb kabobs were super. Tender and flavorful. It was a busy Saturday dinner time. We sit down at outdoor seatings. The food came really fast. However, we asked extra napkins, extra veggie sauce and they never came. Better sit indoor and it might be better service.

The bread was good and fresh, food was fair and the prices were expensive. The team is really good and sweets are amazing. Nice environment and hard working staff. Fun to just to go on a Saturday night and hang out. Make reservation.

To be honest, one of the best Persian restaurants in US. Foods are amazing, and management is wonderful! The only thing/issue is the space/room! Very very tight and compact! In some cases, you feel like you can't breathe enough :) all kinds of Kabobs are recommended, especially the SHAMSHIRY one, and don't forget to order DOUGH with it ;)

Rumor has it, this is the best Persian restaurant in DMV. [ minus the fact that there are way too many tables way too close to one another]

We ordered chicken kabob, lamb solutani, and kabob barg. They were all delicious, meat was so tender and buttery, so good. We also had rice with dried pomegranate, which was so tasty, one of the best rice we’ve ever had.

I have been going there with my friends for four years, and interestingly they are always consistent with Persian food and style. I really enjoy Koobideh kabab there.

I’m not super familiar with Persian food so I don’t know how to rate this place. But I liked it and there seemed to be many Persian people eating there so that was a good sign. Note: when you order baklava, it comes with five pieces!
