    We had a wonderful experience hosting a large family gathering at this Persian restaurant. The food was exceptional, beautifully prepared, and full of authentic flavor. The live music and evening belly dance performances created an elegant and vibrant atmosphere that made the night especially memorable. A special thank you to Esmeralda for her attentive and gracious service, and to Maddi for coordinating our large party so seamlessly and making everyone feel genuinely welcomed. The hospitality, ambiance, and overall experience were truly outstanding. We look forward to returning soon.

    I love Persian food and was excited to discover that this building that had housed so many failed restaurants was Persian. And, I was blown away at what a beautiful job they did in converting it from the last concept. It is really attractive. But, restaurants are about the food, so the jury was still out. The minute I was handed my menu I searched for my favorite flavor - Fesenjoon. The walnuts and pomegranate and molasses are the ugliest, yet tastiest combination ever. Sure enough, it was there on the menu. So, we ordered the Fesenjoon and Qabuli Pulao, which is basmati rice with raisins and carrots and almonds. We chose lamb as our protein. The Fesenjoon was amazing. It was paired with crispy rice, which was so crispy and delicious. I am salivating as I am writing this. The Qabuli was excellent also. The service was fine...efficient, but nothing special. But, we were treated to live music. The whole experience was much better than we expected and we can't wait to return.

    Excellent choice in Foothill for an authentic Persian food dining experience. Live music, friendly atmosphere, and exceptional wait staff. Ordered two chicken shush kabob plates. Meat was tender and juicy, and the veggies were roasted to perfection. A hefty portion of classic basmati rice came as part of the plate. Overall, enjoyable and will be back!

    Shout out to Server 19! Sorry, didn't get your name. He was extremely accommodating, and made us feel welcome. Inside is very nice. Most people dress nice, but some were very casual, too. We made reservations for 6:30pm and got pretty good seats. Singing started at 7pm, belly dancer came on a little after 8:30pm. All the food tasted really good, but neither of us liked the tahini sauce.

I should've known better, but I remember the soup being pretty good and since it's in our neighborhood, thought we'd give it one more try. We did a togo for $60 and we were basically given garbage, so old and past its prime, everything should have be in the trash. The pita that was served was all stale, hard and tasted like dirty oil. The falafel was overcooked, dry and tasteless. The rice was overcooked mushy with no flavor. Grape leaves taste tasted like canned and bitter. My finance picked up the online order and we have an email receipt and order number for 4.17. We both did reviews and he was so upset he paid for food he could not eat. I was sick and wanted soup, I stayed in the car when he went in to pick it up so that's why I'm not on his "camera". My review is legit, regardless of what the owner is stating. Rather than dispute my review, the owner should try and apologize not make claims against my integrity. I will not have someone antagonize me to try to get me to remove my authentic review as an Elite. Be aware that if you go here, the food might not only be bad but you'll be treated like a criminal for having honest feedback and have to be harassed for weeks after all because you wanted some soup.

I saw a picture from someone's Yelp review that did have the shawarma meats and clearly I was not provided with that.

The beef was definitely the highlight of the meal(MUST TRY!!!) It was incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Honestly, it was so delicious I could've eaten it with just a bowl of rice. The burger was another pleasant surprise. It was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. I also tried Lemon and apple sodas made with 100% natural beet sugar, which was something I'd never had before. The sweetness tasted much cleaner and lighter than a regular Coke, and it paired really well with the food. I was lucky enough to visit on the day of their Summer Concert, so after dinner I sat outside and enjoyed the live music. Families were relaxing on the lawn, kids were playing, people were walking their dogs along the nearby trails, and everyone was simply enjoying the beautiful summer evening. The peaceful atmosphere made the whole experience even more memorable. If you're curious about Lebanese food and looking for a great place for your first experience, I highly recommend starting here.
