I was trying to think as to how could this restaurant still be in business. We visited this restaurant over thirty years ago and the food was so terrible that we’ve stayed away from it for three decades. Today, we decided to give it another try and unfortunately it reminded us as to why we didn’t want to eat here. Absolutely the worst Persian food we’ve ever had. Now, I realize that the reason this restaurant has remained in business is because there’s hardly any competition.
My husband and I each ordered the Cornish hen, his had some green paste on it and mine didn’t. This food must have been cooked either in a pan or oven, which would not qualify for Kabob. Awful flavor, melted butter on the chicken and terrible quality rice, weird tasting “grilled tomato”. No salt on anything, even the yogurt drink. When in San Francisco, even though Lavash Persian restaurant has a smaller menu, that would be a much better option. Sorry, but thirty plus years is too long for a restaurant owner not to improve their food and restaurant.

I can’t believe this place has even one review below 5! We ordered Kashke Bademjan, Yogurt with cucumber and Maykadeh Kebab (Barg). I was so obsessed with the last one, I even forgot to take a photo before it was completely gone 🙈 One note tho, if you are trying this cuisine first time in your life, Kashke Bademjan may taste weird. So if you don’t like it, don’t rush to leave a bad review.

Food: 4.3/5
The meal started with warm bread, greens, sumac and good butter. Ghormeh sabzi tasted authentic. The rice for the kebab dish had an unexpected sweetness to it which I didn’t necessarily enjoy. Chicken kebob was ok. My personal favorite was the lule (with ground lamb and beef).

Presentation: 4.7/5
The dishes were not works of art, but the food was served in a family style which felt very traditional and made us nostalgic for home. We loved every bit of it.

Service: 5/5
The staff were super friendly and prompt with our requests.

Atmosphere: 4/5
A cozy but spacious family restaurant vibes. Nothing spectacular though.

Value: 4/5
While not inexpensive, the value to enjoyment ratio was fair.

Overall Rating: 4.7/5
My friends and I enjoyed our time there and will go back when in need for some good kebob.

I ordered the Soltani, and the food was very good and authentic Iranian. We also had Kashke Bademjoon as an appetizer, which was delicious. Everything was great, but I wish the music was a bit quieter.
