Shoutout to this amazing staff and a special shoutout to Kyle, who was just phenomenal with explaining the menu and keeping the engagement going throughout the night. The inside was great, clean, plenty of seating, and just had a welcoming atmosphere. The food was just chef's kiss . I ordered the falafel sandwich and rice, and I was hooked. My friend got the French fries, and they were top notch. Then they let us sample the tahini ice cream, and it's a must have! Overall, an amazing experience and night. I will definitely be back soon.

Mezza platter : Falafel - The best falafel I had was from…read moreSunrise Deli in San Francisco The Falafel here is different than Sunrise deli but delicious. Perfect balance of spices and fried to perfection. A+ Hummus - smooth and fresh. A+ Baba Ganoush - not bad Dolma - very different but not bad Chopped parsley salad - was ok. I am not into parsley. I'm more of a cilantro type. Hopefully, I can switch to a chopped salad next time. Mixed grill with lamb tikka, meat kafta and chicken tawook : Lamb Tikka - overcooked, dried and tough. Meat Kafta - flavorful but dried Chicken Tawook - was alright. Rice - dried and bland. I prefer the rice and grills from Princess Pita. Pita bread - pillowy and yummy Desserts: camera didn't get to it. Rice pudding - too sweet but not bad Baklava - soggy and didn't taste fresh Tahini ice cream- not enough sesame. Will definitely return for the mezza platter, extra extra Falafels.

Loved this place!…read more Food was super fresh and the staff was very friendly. The inside is very mom and pop. However, it's super spacious. We absolutely loved the side salad dressing and chicken shawarma. The pita was very fresh. Everything was seasoned very well. The hummus was super silky. The portions were large. The baklava was crispy and sweet, but not too sweet. It was just right. Definitely give this place a try as it will not disappoint!

Very clean, open and inviting. I was familiar with a lot of things on the menu so it took me awhile…read moreto decide what I wanted because it all looked good. Plus, I was so hungry. Today I ordered a side of beef sambousek and pickles based on others reviews. I thought the pickles tasted like a solid kosher pickle. If you're a pickle purest you should love them. The sambousek was definitely a hit! It was delicate and full of flavor. It's worth getting all three of them. I'll do that next time. The main entree was a kafta kebab wrap which is automatically served with some of the tastiest seasoned fries I've eaten in a long time. In fact, I would say it's worth it to just order a side of fries alone. Anyway, the kafta had a homemade vibe to me and was topped with the usual suspects. An order of kibbeh and hummus rounded out my order. The kibbeh was perfectly cooked and the hummus was super creamy as house made hummus goes. Oh! This may sound crazy but I was even impressed with the lemon slices in my water. They tasted a little sweeter than what I'm accustomed to when eating out. Overall I really liked this place and it was worth the drive across town. Next time I'll be taking friends with me to enjoy a meal. One last note regarding payment. They do have Apple Pay! Woohoo! Just be aware whether you're using Apple Pay or a card, to avoid the small fee use your debit card instead of a credit card.

Great service, super helpful staff, and they just started a rewards program last week. I will definitely return just for the pet friendliness and great service alone. The food slaps.

Edit: the CRISPIEST Greek Fries I have ever had and for that I am naming the best.

They have belly dances at night time. Overall, it was an expensive experience.

Stopped in about three weeks ago. This was after a 1 year absence when I used to go often. I Was…read morequite disappointed compared to what I remembered. My friend order the chicken....I've never seen or tasted drier chicken....we jokingly called it Chicken Chips. Should have returned it but didn't. They must have known as they were plating? Ate very little.... I ordered the lamb kabob....it was ok but pretty bland, looked like processed little meat balls. . Service was good and friendly, no owner on site. In past visits I loved their Asobuco but none was on the menu. That's what I wanted to order. There was free baklava ....wasn't looking for free....went up to the counter to order some. Then was given two out of a bunch of stacked containers behind the register. If I hadn't inquired wouldn't have known. In past visits they always walked around with a tray and offered. This was dry as well..... I do appreciate free but not dry. I was willing to pay. I probably caught them on an off night, business was good which is always a good sign. I'll give them another shot but won't order the Chicken Chips.

A true gem in the Valley. I visited the Persian Room for the first time with visiting family, and…read morewe were amazed. Firstly, the interior is GRAND - in size and extravagance. Every detail you notice is extravagant and purposeful. Visiting on a Saturday for lunch, there were plenty of other families eating together too. I noticed the crowd was mostly older, which lets you know this restaurant is a true staple in the community (I find that usually the old people know what's up). As all 4 of us weren't super hungry, we split the Persian Room Special- Combination of barg (Filet mignon), chicken filet and Koobideh kebab, served with basmati rice and grilled tomato. It was a huge portion of food, served on a large silver platter. The menu states that it serves 2, but it perfectly filled us 4 adults! Granted, we weren't super hungry to begin with, but 2 is definitely an underestimate. I'd say it can easily satisfy 3 hungry adults. Anyway, quantity aside, THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! Everything was so flavorful and paired well together. The meat was also juicy. My favorite was the koobideh kebab for sure. There isn't much more I can say, as the food speaks for itself. The Persian Room is definitely something you need to try for yourself. Weeks later, I'm still craving it and will definitely be back!

The location is convenient and the ambiance inside is wonderfully welcoming. My friend is a frequent guest and loves it, so I was really looking forward to the meal. Unfortunately, my experience was dampened when I found a hair on my chicken skewer. Rather than making a scene or notifying the server, I simply removed that piece of chicken and ate the rest. While the remaining food tasted great, the discovery left me feeling grossed out for the remainder of the meal. Overall, the atmosphere and flavors are excellent, but the hygiene slip brings my rating down to 3/5 stars

Some restaurants chase trends. Others just quietly keep making really good food year after year…read more This is one of those places. I'd been here several times years ago, and after coming back, I'm honestly wondering why I don't eat here more often. I ordered the chicken shawarma, a stuffed grape leaves platter, and hot tea. Everything was exactly what I hoped it would be. The chicken was well-seasoned, tender, and wrapped with the classic toppings, and the portion was fair for the price. Speaking of price, the value here is honestly hard to beat. The stuffed grape leaves platter came with hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and hot stuffed grape leaves. I had completely forgotten they serve them warm, and my brain needed a minute to recalibrate because I'm so used to cold dolmas everywhere else. Once I took a bite, though... yep. That's how they're supposed to taste. Soft, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I ended up adding some of the hummus and tabbouleh to my shawarma, which made an already great sandwich even better. The service was just as impressive as the food. My server was genuinely kind, gave me a few extra minutes when I couldn't decide, checked in without hovering, and even offered to package my hot tea to go when he noticed I was still working on it. (For the record, ordering an entire pot of tea for one person was an ambitious life choice on my part.) The dining room isn't huge, and there's also a small market attached, which adds to the charm. This place reminds me that consistency is underrated. Years later, I came back, and it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, great service, great value. I'll try not to wait so long before my next visit.

They should probably clean up the walkway to the bathroom too there was just a bunch of stuff. They also have a store attached which was cool. We didn't look but still cool. Chicken shawarma was bomb!
