    The best kabob I've had in a long time. The quality of the meat is amazing. They hand cut the filet for the Barg and it melts in your mouth. The rice, the bread, the yogurt were all so good. The silver authentic plates are a nice touch. The owner was so kind. We will definitely be coming back.

    Food was interesting and flavorful. Very enjoyable. Service was good and our waiter even provided live guitar and singing! I enjoyed the hardwood doors and marble & granite pieces bar. Will be returning.

    The kebabs were delicious. (A blend of ground beef and lamb.) The rice was fantastic. The tomato and cucumber salad was fresh and flavorful. A little pricey, $30, but.......

    The beautiful German/Bavarian wall script and masonry of the brickwork inside the building only is worth the trip to this place . Now on to the food: they serve halal Iranian and Turkish dishes. Mainly lamb, beef and chicken kabobs. What sets them apart from other places is they use fresh meat and spices vs pre packaged kabobs. The food may be kind of pricey to some. However, the portions you get as well as the taste are well worth the price you pay. Definitely checked them out!

    Incredible. Went there with a large group and got the biggest combo platter. Everything was amazing. Unbelievable flavors. Very friendly service. Very reasonable $$. 7 of us ate and were stuffed. Will absolutely be returning. Don't miss this one folks. One of the best meals I've ever had.

    Perfect spot for comfort food! Everything came out fresh and hot. The server recommended the 2-person combo, and I added a side of lamb chops--such a great choice. The meat was well-marinated, and the portions were generous. The combo also came with pickled veggies and a salad, which tied everything together perfectly. I visited during a quieter time, so the vibe was super relaxed, and the server made sure we were well taken care of. Definitely solid!

    Truly a hidden gem found in an unsuspecting area. The food here was delicious; their meats, incredibly juicy and flavorful. The group deals are definitely worth the value for what you get, so bringing a crowd is recommended. Favorite dishes: Kabob koobideh, sheeshlik (lamb chops)

    We went here for lunch and we ordered the two people combo since it is just the two of us, my boyfriend and I. The food is good. I like the beef. I wish the rice would have more flavors or spices. The service is not what I expected. Having someone one or two years older than my kids asking me what I want to eat is different to say the least. Therefore as expected, no checking to see if you like the food or needed anything else. Which was fine, because I do not expect my kids at their age to know to do that. My boyfriend still gave 37% tip because they are just kids.

    The koobideh kabob (included in the soltani kabob combo) was fantastic. It literally melts in your mouth. Both kabobs are on skewers when they arrive at your table and are pulled of the skewer by gloved hands. They are piping hot upon tableside delivery! The masto khiar is so cool and refreshing and well seasoned. I highly recommend both dishes. The gentleman at the bar when we came in was super friendly and adored children. He was enamored with our 6 month old and grabbed his guitar to play her some songs. It was so sweet. You can tell the people that own this business are super nice and their food is fire as hell to boot. It is a toss up between this place and Royal Kebab for who has the best kabobs in the city, but they both blow Majeed out of the water. I, for one, will be supporting this area business quite often. I suggest you do too!

    What a gem! Delicious food beautifully presented. The owner was very nice and friendly. He gave good recommendations as we were unable to make decisions since everything look so good. Street parking only.

    Ghormeh Sabzi and Gheymeh
    Uma R.

    Good gooooodd fooooood!!! Went w a party of 7 and got two 3-person combos and it was the right amount of food. The half chicken kebab was my favorite (5/5) but I also loved the other chicken kebab and the beef kebab. The stews that came with the combo were fire, my fav was the gormeh sabzi. Loved all of the veggies that came w/ the platter - onions, cabbage, jalepenos, banana peppers, roasted tomatoes (which were fire!) - they were so fresh! Definitely recommend! Ambience was okay - wish there was some music to add to the vibe of the restaurant, but otherwise had a good time! Would come back to try more of their kebabs

    The meat here is incredible! I've had a ton of Iranian food from a variety of places but this is the first place I've tried in St. Louis and I don't think I need to try any others! The chicken in particular was so so juicy and cooked perfectly. The koobideh was delicious and also cooked perfectly. All the staff was super nice but you'll need to wave them down to order and get the check and what not. Still giving 5 stars though because of how personable they were!! This place is super casual and there is lots of seating available. Seems like it would be accommodating for larger groups! The platters for sure are!! Also this place is halal which is an added bonus :)

    The kebab is exceptional and easily the best Koobideh in the area. The yogurt dip is a must try if you've never had it.

    A couple weeks ago my husband and I were running errands and wanted something healthy to eat. Since…read morewe were nearby he suggested The Port of Peri Peri. We had not been there since having new ownership and hoped it had not changed in taste and quality. There was absolutely no need to be concerned...it was possibly even more delicious. Located in a strip mall next to a Fresh Thyme Market, Peri Peri has a pretty nondescript dining area. It is clean and comfortable, and perfectly fine for a counter service establishment. The owner took our order and went out of his way to help me select a "milder than mild" sauce. I am no longer able to tolerate very spicy foods which is a shame because the peri sauce is extremely flavorful. My husband always opts for the spiciest or nearly spiciest option and had his usual 1/4 dark chicken but chose flame-grilled corn on the cob, which was good but not the same as his usual rice. I decided to opt for the Falafel Rice with the lemon pepper sauce. I was not disappointed. The owner also provided us with a generous serving of hummus and pita on the house - a nice complement to the meal. I love that the food is prepared fresh and not sitting there waiting for me. It may take a bit of time but it is worth it. The new owner and staff are very friendly and happy to answer questions. The food is very good. If you haven't already, I highly recommend dropping in and giving them a try. I think your taste buds will thank you!

    The food is always flavorful and absolutely delicious. I usually stick with my favorites--the…read morechicken wrap and fries, or the Signature chicken and rice plate (both are constant go-tos)-- today I tried the Pericini for the first time and WOW. Cheese-stuffed chicken nuggets... need I say more? Crispy, juicy, cheesy perfection. I'll definitely be ordering those again. I haven't had a single side dish or dessert here that I didn't love. Everything is consistently good, which is rare. On top of that, the service is always great and the restaurant is very clean, which makes the whole experience even better. If you're craving bold, flavorful food that actually delivers every time, this place is it. Highly recommend!

    What a find this was!…read more See pictures for the interior feel of the place. That's the only down side. Small place, feels more like a place to order take out. Not really conducive to eat in, it's not a totally comfortable vibe. But we did! As well as a few other people that came at the same time. The service was great! Server guy, I'm not sure what to call him, was extremely attentive, personable and did pretty much all the running around while we were there. He handled all the tables, handled the people picking up food for take out, and did it all smoothly. The food really was amazing. Again, see the pictures I posted. We over ordered, on purpose, to try a little of a lot of things. The corn soup was different, but good. Seems to be a mix of a few cans of cream corn, broth, and a few chicken bits (if you ordered chicken). We found it pleasant. The fried spinach was amazing. The yellow curry was amazing. The Mongolian beef was amazing. Thank you for the rice, there was quite a bit of it and the fried shrimp (I forget the official name...fried shrimp?) off the appetizer menu) was AMAZING. We will definitely go back. Even if it's just take out. I must say....we took the left overs home and they made the trip just fine and were still good as left overs. Highly recommend. Let me know what you think, leave a compliment give me a "helpful" so I know you liked it!
