    Chicken Kabob Plate
    Lewis C.

    Had dinner to go from this place recently. The interior is clean and neat in a relatively newer building. But seating is limited and I imagine that much of their volume is to go. I had the Chicken Kebab platter. The chicken was nicely cooked. It came on a bed of rice with hummus and a small salad on the side. The chicken was fine, but was a bit lacking in flavor. I had to ask for hot sauce and it needed it. The pita was also on the flimsy side and the hummus was a bit on the watery side. Overall - it was ok. I would prefer Panini Grill.

    Quality food, consistency to me is important. And this place is consistently good. Clean kitchen. It's not a sitdown where they come take your order but more like a cafe, you order at counter and then sit down with your number. I have had the chicken kebab and the veggie kebab here & both are always wonderful. Salad is good. Rice is good. I like the white rice and usually like brown but was t really into the brown rice here at this place. Not terrible or anything just not my thing. Friendly kind service always.

    Messy Lamb Gyro Sandwich

    Meh...3 stars and that's a bit generous. Yelp has the details wrong. There's no outdoor seating and because there's no outdoor seating, it's not dog friendly. We ended up taking our food to go because we had our pup with us. The bathroom was out of service...supposedly it broke that morning. So...what's left...the food and customer service. The food...its average. My partner and I ordered the same thing- lamb gyro. It's a mix of lamb and steak. The sauce is pretty good but without it, the meat has no flavor. Portions are large and they don't price gouge you...so there's that. The customer service was average. We ordered 'to-go'...we weren't asked if we wanted forks, etc. I wish we were because my gyro fell apart after two bites. It's a solid 'meh' for me.

    Fresh ingredients and generous portion are what I got from this restaurant. For a plate, you have a choice of White or Brown rice. I wish they game me all Basmati rice. Neither White nor Brown rice goes with Gyro.

    Can appreciate the authenticity of great cuisine. Excited for my Beef Koobideh

    This restaurant is great for lunch. A much healthier option over fast food. Super clean, great establishment for a fabulous lunch

    Ambiance: it's a convenient Mediterranean place located in MDR, there's a shared parking lot in the rear Service: friendly and fast, you place the order from the counter, staff will bring the dishes to you table, and there's self serving water station Food: simple and classic Mediterranean menu, all plates come with white rice or brown rice, salad, and hummus KOOBIDEH - **** choice of 2 SKEWERS of BEEF and CHICKEN, Seasoned ground beef and chicken, mixed with grated onion, grilled on a open flame, the chicken skewer tasted better, beef skewer was overcooked, still recommend LAMB SHANK - ***** Lamb Shank slow roasted in sauce with vegetables, mild spicy, the lamb meat was so juicy and tender, highly recommend Price: generous portions, you'll likely end up with leftover, expect $25 per person

    UPDATE: Okay now they're just being rude lol. I told the owner that they specifically said they serve hookah at the other spot. And even the employee stated it! I would not eat here and do not recommend just based off the owner acting like this. Also did not apologize after showing proof of the reviews on YELP. For THEIR restaurant. Posting receipts below. And this was late at night while I was in bed. He texted me at 11pm. So sorry for the misspelled grammar lol

    The food is always amazing! The portions are great for the price, and they have a Lunch Special from 11AM-3PM, so you can get even more of a discount! Alex was super nice and attentive with all of the customers! She let us know when our food would be out and was super patient! I would definitely recommend this location!

Recently, we were curious if our old go-to, Javan, was still any good. So, my wife and I dined there. The beef and chicken koobideh entrees were both excellent- so tender and juicy. This weekend, we have some friends visiting from San Francisco. As SF is a fantastic food town in its own right, we suggested two different food options that are better in L.A. than what you'll find up there: Korean BBQ or Persian food. The wife pushed a return to Javan. Alex, the manager, recommended the All Javan Combo for our party of 5. It includes tzatziki, hummus, salad, and flatbread to start followed by beef and chicken koobideh, chicken kabob, filet, lamb, and choice of rice. We added an eggplant stew with lamb shank and an extra skewer of chicken koobideh. Finished the meal off with hot tea, a sublimely-delicious saffron ice cream (house-made by Alex himself), baklava, and little bites that were like honey churro nubs. After we finished this feast of a meal, my daughter looked up at me and said, "This was one of the best Persian meals I've ever had." I must agree. This was a meal greater than the sum of its parts- food was very, very good and the experience was elevated by the warmth of Alex and his staff. It's rare that a restaurant works this hard to make its guests feel welcome. Free street parking and a full-bar (Alex is happy to whip-up a special cocktail for you). I give Javan my highest recommendation. Please eat here if you're in the mood for Persian food. Bon Appétit!

    Wow was this place incredible!!!!…read more I got the homemade yogurt drink, roasted eggplant dip, lamb kabob, and beef koobideh. The yogurt drink was savory, which I had never tried before but instantly fell in love with! It was nice and creamy and cold. When I asked the serve for a second one for my friend they were so friendly and accommodating. The dip. Oh. My. God. When I come back here I will just be getting every dip and eating it alongside the thin piece of bread. The roasted eggplant dip is warm, topped with yogurt, fried mint, and caramelized onion. Heaven in my mouth. The creaminess of the dip, the tang of the yogurt, the crunch of the mint, the sweetness of the onions. I could have ordered three right then and there. The lamb was delicious and juicy. It was a little bit on the salty side but I didn't mind at all, and definitely did not notice with a mouthful of steamy rice and roasted tomato. The beef was also juicy and had a hint of alluring spices in each bite. The roasted vegetables were simple, which is exactly what the meat needs. We were the only other group there beside one other. It was pretty empty for a Friday at 630 pm, so there were many tables to sit at. It's a somewhat small restaurant, but the food gives it big personality! Definitely reccomend!

All the meat whether chicken, salmon or beef comes out perfectly juicy and flavorful. Just wish things weren't so expensive. They do add an extra $3 for salad, which isn't preposterous but not worth it in my opinion. Also they certainly do pile on the rice inside!! Yummmm. And I'll gladly eat their roasted tomatoes anytime. This restaurant was quiet and I gladly filled a cup of ice water by the entrance, plopped on a bench and waited less than 15 minutes for 2 plates. The cashier even brought it over to me rather than calling out; a small but meaningful impact of service. This is a new review on an old favorite of mine. Glad to reunite again Taste of Tehran!

We decided to make a little trip out of it and drove out to West LA just for dinner. There was no wait and no line at 8 PM on a Saturday, so we were seated right away. The servers were very attentive from the start and made the whole experience feel easy and welcoming. We ordered panir sabzi, ash reshteh, chicken soltani with chicken koobideh and chicken barg for me, and the rack of lamb for my husband. I really wanted tadig with ghormeh sabzi, but unfortunately we got there a little too late and it was sold out for the day. I have heard great things about their tadig, so that just means we will have to come back. The food came out a little slower than expected, but it was worth the wait. The panir sabzi arrived first. The goat cheese was very good. The walnuts were a little cold and slightly stale, but overall I did not have strong expectations for this dish, and it was still enjoyable as a starter. The ash was excellent. I did not grow up with a Persian presence in my childhood or early adulthood, but this soup felt very homemade. It was warm and comforting. The lentils, noodles, and herbs created so much texture and depth. The koobideh was incredibly buttery and melted in my mouth. The barg was just as soft and tender. I genuinely have no complaints about the meats. This was better than other Persian restaurants in the area that are much more popular. We mixed the rice with butter, tomato, and sumac, and it was simple but very flavorful. My husband loved the rack of lamb. He said it was one of the better ones he has tried. He liked the grilled smokiness and how juicy it was throughout. I highly recommend Darya if you have the chance. We are already talking about trying their sister restaurant, Sadaf, nearby. This experience definitely pushed us to explore more Persian spots in the area.

Unfortunately, we didn't pay attention, and when we got home, we realized that instead of two servings, they had charged us three servings. After calling , they said that the amount was for lunch, but from 5:00 , the price for dinner is changed ! First, we were at the restaurant before 5:00, and second, there was no explanation on the menu about the price of dinner and lunch, second the waiter didn't give us any explanation. In my opinion, as a customer, it was very unethical and distrustful.
