    Excellent food and service. After our meal, we met a Persian couple who said they had flown from Minneapolis because it was the best Persian food they has ever had. We agreed.

    This is one of my favorite place. Always the best customer service and we always get the best waitress in town. Thank you for the food, ambience and some good times with family.

    Host was nice but still had to wait nearly 30 mins after our reservation time before we got seated. Server was rude and kept talking to us in a demeaning tone. Not to mention her lack of understanding personal space. I.e. her coming over our shoulders at face level unexpectedly and close by, and asking if we want dessert. We could feel her breath. Food was mediocre and greasy. Tea was probably the only good thing here. Was expecting more out of a Persian restaurant that is hyped up to be “high end”.

    This was my first time trying Persian food, and I can confidently say it won’t be my last. Our server was incredible, making us feel truly welcome. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

    A repeated issue is the delay in getting your table despite reservations and multiple open tables. No excuse to have guests wait 10-15 minutes
