    Koba baba ghnouj and salad
    Reta B.

    I have been here twice and have enjoyed their food. The first time was for a graduation party and had the family feast. Their beef kabob is the best however, the chicken in my opinion is OK. Their appetizer are really good as well. The second time we went was for an event the restaurant had hosted. I think beef kabob was better but I felt it was very expensive for what they had offered. It was barely any food and they charged $65 per person plus additional tips and other things. I may or may not consider attending events because it costed $100 per person when it was supposed to be $65. Considering less food this time and more costly. Service is always good and ambience.

    The food's tasty, so get ready to feast. The vibe's chill with awesome service. We always seem to get Omar, who's super laid-back and gives great service.

    Food was fresh and delicious. Service was excellent! The entire staff was very attentive, especially our waiter Omar. We tried the eggplant dip, mama soup with chicken tekka and rice. This was our first time and we will most definitely be coming back to try the rest of the food and also the hookah!

    That Amba sauce must be an acquired taste that I'll never acquire.

    So, this is my first trip to this Persian banquet/event restaurant and it's amazing to be inside this hall of cultural accomplishments...I just wish all the dishes were up to the decoration levels. I heard their falafels were the best so we had to try those...and they looked beautiful...but, unfortunately, they were rather under-seasoned and the yellow/orange dipping sauce to me was completely inedible. Luckily, the chicken shawarma with the hummus was lots better and served with terrific tasty freshly-made pita in a beautiful basket. The chicken was rather dry (maybe that's just the style) but very-well seasoned and great hummus that did itself proud. I wasn't impressed that they tack on a $5 plastic bottle of Crystal Geyser table-side water to every bill. I also wasn't impressed that the DJ was pumping very loud music into the hall prior to dancing...I mean, why do I need to shout across the table during dinner? Service was fine and was happy we were able to flag down another server to get an alternative dipping sauce to enhance the falafels (a rather thick tahini). The chicken shawarma was large enough to split and I highly recommend that delicious dish. In the local falafel competition, especially compared to Le Chef's, looks like Kahramana needs to up its game.

    We order lamb chap and chicken tandoori the lamp chaps arrive in 10min but we wait for one hour to get chicken tandoori and the server was not good they at least they should tell to the customer to how long it take if they don't have ready let the customer know but the food was delicious and good and the place is very clean

    2 stars for Lisa the waitress that made the night be a little bit better after multiple issues. Pros: large space and plenty of parking spaces. They sing happy birthday and will bring candles with your cake. $35 fee but it's worth provided while the singer sings happy birthday. The sign says your name and happy birthday. Important items that need to be addressed my the owner and managemen Cons: The service needs to be looked at and organized. They only had two waitresses on a Saturday and t they took 45 min to take our order. When we arrived we stood in the lobby waiting for 20 min before the waitress approached us to ask if we had a reservation. We were dissatisfied and over heard another party saying they were extremely unorganized and that they had brought a cake and needed it placed in the fridge. Also the waitresses kept running through the restaurant. It shows they feel overwhelmed and actually unprofessional and unsafe. After they finally took our order the waitress didn't have the order tablet so she took our order in her phone. When the food came out it was all incorrect. We kept getting other people orders and that took another 30 min to figured out. We wanted a glass of wine and they denied us ordered per order. They only wanted to sale a bottle for $75 for wine. It was not worth it since we didn't all care for the wine. They also have arrowhead large water bottles on tables and no extra water is provided or refills. The water was just warm and no ice is provided. Unless you pay for a bucket of ice. Very unusual and not really ideal. We felt like the poor two waitress were trying their best. However between the wait for just an order and food we arrived at 8 and ate dinner at 10 pm. All in all the food was good. However the lack of operations and organization at this establishment is very poor and needs immediate improvement. I have a feeling that this may be a reflection of why is was not that busy for a Friday night. Just wanted to warn others and ensure you all make note before visiting this location.

    Been here for the first time with friends. Food was ok, one thing i liked was the spicy hummus and pita. Ambience was ok. Few things i want to mention, on saturdays they have a cover charge of $15 or a minimum charge of $55 per person. We were told about it after getting seated. Waitress was very rude. Not a good service no one checked on us or asked if we need anything the entire time. Had to ask multiple waiters to bring us check and the waitress who hosted us was not responsive. We asked for a reciept but she never gave us one and made a disgust feeling face for asking. Overall bad experience and never going here no don't recommend.

We came to eat here for the first time, because I was craving Mediterranean food. We were going to go to Risen, (also a hidden gem) since it's down the street from us, but a little further than what we wanted to drive, because we were starving. We walked in, and there were no customers inside, you could probably hear a pin drop if it weren't for music playing. Customer service was really good, given that we were the only ones there, however, the attentiveness from our waiter/server did not fall short. Our waiter made a great recommendation for the Eden's fusion mix grill, and it was amazing to say the least! It's very filling, and the steak is cooked to your liking. The chicken was tender, and juicy, and the kefta was amazing too! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking to try something different, especially, if you've never had Mediterranean. This place deserves recognition, and it deserves to be packed outside the doors. I hope that my review reaches locals and non locals alike! Trust me you won't be disappointed! I hope you guys try this place out, and that my review is convincing enough to come find this little gem!

I was warmly greeted by a lovely lady who seemed to be both the manager and the waitress. The restaurant has a vintage style; it's set in an old building, giving it a vibe, but honestly, it looked a bit worn down and didn't seem that clean especially the restroom, which also didn't appear very sanitary. For food, I tried the sujuk appetizer: a spicy sausage with sautéed veggies. Unfortunately, it wasn't like what I've had before; something about the taste was off, and I didn't enjoy it. I also ordered the mixed grill plate, which came with three portions: chicken, ground beef, and steak. The steak was actually quite good, and I really enjoyed that, but the chicken didn't taste like a young, fresh chicken; it was like one of those big, hormone-fed birds. The rice was not fresh and it was a warm up from the day before. Overall, I didn't really like the food quality and didn't feel like it matched the price at all. On the plus side, the service was really nice; that lady was very kind and genuine. One odd thing was that there was nothing on the table; no salt, pepper, napkins, or sauces. you have to ask for everything. And since the railroad is so close, you occasionally hear a loud train passing by. All in all, despite the warm service, I probably won't be coming back.

Our company had about 30 guests attend and aside from us there was about 3-4 other tables booked nearby that weren't part of our group.

When I arrive and I come to seat myself, and the restaurant had a good amount of people there, including a ton of children essentially running around. I let one of the workers know we've sat down at the location we did and I go and take my seat. We wait another 15 minutes and nobody come says anything to us....despite SEEING us there, I made sure of it...
