Creative and flavorful food. Lots of delicious choices on the menu. Very well seasoned with fresh ingredients not found in many other restaurants. A great diverse menu that is a breath of fresh air on 5th avenue which is dominated by almost all Italian restaurants. I can’t wait to go back to try more! I had the Pomegranate glazed salmon that had so much flavor! It was very filling and I struggled to finish the lentils even though I wanted to, it was so delicious. We sat outside in their courtyard which had lovely ambience.

We’ve been here many times but not since they’ve moved to location on Fifth Ave.  Still excellent and our favorite dishes still on menu, quail and apricot chicken.  Hummus appetizer very good.  Beet salad to die for and excellent butternut squash soup.  Beautiful interior and extremely attentive service.  Can’t wait to return on next visit to Naples.

I've been coming here for nearly 20 years (back when they were on the Vanderbilt Beach Rd location) and it always hits the spot. Excellent service, ambiance and an unbelievable experience. Make sure to try the lamb shank! 10/10!!

I’ve been to many Persian restaurants, my first time coming here, had high expectations, did not meet my standards
Ordered mixed grill
Koobideh: 6.5/10
Barg: 3/10 taste like ihop steak
Chicken: 0/10 dry and taste like Walmart rotisserie chicken

Environment/ atmosphere is great
Maybe the other food is good, but the resturaunt is Persian, you would expect the signature Persian dishes to taste good.
