I was reluctant at first because of low star reviews but thank God I came and tried the food! So far the best Persian restaurant in SF! I ordered Ghorme Sabzi and it came with a huge lamb shack and also the Koobideh and Joojeh was so large portion and amazing quality!

I've been living in USA more than 14 years, but even in Iran never had such a delicious Koobide and Barg. Also, the amount of food for such a price is amazing. In addition, their staff are very generous. The only problem is the location which is hard to find parking lot.

Authentic Persian cuisine in the SF Bay Area. We ordered koobideh and it’s the best we’ve had (we’ve had our fair share). Quality food and friendly staff.
