    Wow, this place is beautiful! I lived in upland a few years ago and had no clue about this place. Italian & Persian food in one spot, amazing. The lasagna is probably one of the best I've ever had. The bread that comes with hummus and cucumber dip? The best thing I've ever tried.

    Dolmeh is to die for! I always ask for extra lemon to drench it in. It's a habit.

    My family and I have been coming here for 25 years now. This family owned restaurant has always made us feel welcomed and at home when we visit. The food is always amazing. Today our server was a pleasant Brazilian young man that gave us excellent service. It was great getting to know him. We ordered hummus, and dolmeh, as appetizers. I had the Beef Soltan plate which comes with a skewer of filet mignon & koobideh kabob which is made with ground beef and lamb mixed with minced onions, and seasoned with salt and pepper. I asked for cherry rice as a side because it's my favorite. It was season to perfection as usual. Keep up the great work!

    The place is nice and in the mountains which i like as a Texas native. We had Happy as our server and she was great and happy like her name lol. We got some bread and dips and these were very good. the Mast-o-Musir was my favorite and so addicting. The antipasto salad was not very good, the mozzarella used the same types of cheese they have on frozen pizzas. We got lots of plates but the lamb chop and the koobideh were my favorites, but the chicken was dry; i didn't enjoy it. The Gormeh sabzi tasted overcooked and burnt (talkh); the rice it came with was good though. For desserts we got the saffron ice cream which was a yummy treat, but the cream puffs felt frozen and not very good.

    Best food in the Inland Empire. Service is excellent especially from Alaa and Eugenia. I went on a Saturday night, it was pretty packed. The newest room is a nice quiet area. I recommend the chicken soltani, kashk, fesenjun, and pizza. The Italian dishes are all pretty good as well.

    Wow the service was A+ thanks Diane / Dianna . Now for the fun park I am a True Meat lover but the chicken /vegetable broth. It was vegetable with chicken broth and I enjoyed every bit of it! I had the chicken and steak skewers and it was good to the last drop. The dessert tiramisu was homemade and you can taste the goodness. We were a party of four and everyone had something different. The lamb was tender and all of the dishes were well seasoned and served hot. We will be back! Nice fusion of Italian & Persian food.

    The chicken kebob is always my favorite! And my server "Taylor" is always on top of her game!

    My wife and I just enjoyed a marvelous lunch here. What an amazing find. Located at the top of Euclid Avenue in Upland with a beautiful view of the mountains. Offering indoor and patio dining, this gem of a restaurant offers both intimate and group dining accommodations. The owner truly appreciates her customers and made us feel very welcome. A lovely young lady named Taylor provided the best service we had had in years and the food was fantastic. This was our first visit but will not be our last.

    Over a decade later and this place is still a favorite! The food quality is just as great as it was in my last review, the only things that have changed is they've expanded the restaurant and made it even more inviting and beautiful. Our server Adriana was so pleasant & attentive! The food was perfection. The atmosphere amazing! Of course prices have increased but that's expected and for the quality, it's worth it!

    What's their vegan option? Separate grill from the animals bodies?

    They offer a very good seasoned vegetable skewer that comes with basmati rice. Their Dolmeh or Shrazi salad would also be vegan. Check with them re separate grill. Since this is a privately owned restaurant they can answer for themselves. I eat… Read more

I went for dinner on Wednesday so the restaurant wasn't packed. As soon as you walk in you get git with that Italian restaurant smell (idk how else to describe it) so I was hopeful that it would be good. The restaurant is dimly lit so it creates an intimate atmosphere. Very cozy. Our server was friendly and helped me choose between two dishes I wanted. We started with bread service which includes a few different styles of bread along with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. For my entree I went with the clam linguine. It comes with chopped clams, garlic in a white wine sauce and also has a few whole clams in shell. It was so good. It was very "seafoody" which was just what I was craving. I also got to taste the carbonara, which was also very tasty. It had plenty of pancetta and the sauce was rich. Overall a good experience.

Nothing hits harder than fresh bread at the table. We ordered the calamari and it was chef's kiss. Super crispy, perfectly seasoned, not greasy at all, and the marinara tasted so fresh and homemade. Like the kind of appetizer you accidentally keep eating even when you swear you're saving room for your entrée. The Caesar salad was also so good -- perfectly dressed, fresh, crunchy, and balanced without being overly heavy. For my main, I got the Penne alla Vodka with added chicken and WOW. The sauce was rich, creamy, flavorful, and had that perfect comforting pasta energy. The chicken was juicy, the pasta was cooked perfectly, and every bite just hit. You know a pasta dish is good when the whole table goes silent for a minute. Everything tasted high quality and made with care, which honestly makes such a difference. Definitely one of those spots where you immediately start planning what you're ordering next time before you even leave. Can't wait to come back and try the rest of the menu because if this was the first impression... I already know there are more hits waiting.

We chose this gem to celebrate a birthday, and it exceeded every expectation--it was truly a night to remember. The Ambiance: From the moment we walked in, it's a wonderfully romantic and comfortable fine-dining experience. * Appetizers: We started with the Crab Cakes and the Wagyu Beef Ravioli (pictured). The crab cakes were perfectly seared and flavorful, served over a bed of fresh greens and house-made tartar. * The Main Event: We ordered the popular Beef Wellington (pictured), and it was magnificent. *Not on menu, but a special for the night. * Dessert: We ended the night with a spectacular cheesecake /crème brûlée dessert (pictured), perfectly plated with a fresh strawberry and whipped cream.
