The food is good, but the service is bad, the waitress is welcoming but knowing there would be rain, no one come to open the umbrella and also when I asked them to pack my food, they packed only the rice but none of the other stews!

The best Iranian food you can have in the U.S. is definitely here. Everything is amazing and truly captures the authentic taste of Iranian cuisine.
