    #8) Lamb Chops Plate

    The food was great! So delicious My friend and I shared the lamb chop plate and we will definitely be getting it again The service was outstanding as we were helped by the boss man himself Can't wait for the opening in Simi valley I'll get to have it closer to home !

    On a random stop for Chase bank and starving, I saw this little hidden gem! I must say the food is delicious, freshly made and the girl at the counter was super friendly and made me feel welcomed. I definitely will be going back for more. Also the quinoa salad is super good!

    #15 Combo.  Chicken thigh and beef koubideh

    Located right next to Taft HS and shares the parking lot with Ralphs and other businesses. Parking is definitely a bit tricky. They only have indoor seating. I did notice that they are a little pricey. I pad about $30 for a chicken & beef koubideh and a side of small hummus & drink. Their fountain drink dispenser was broken when I came in, so they only had the canned ones. Food took a while to come out, but that is not an issue if the food is good. Food finally came out and tbh, it looked really good. Both meats were juicy and tender. I would have liked there to be more rice though. Flavor wise, it was a little muted, but it was still good. In all honesty, if I lived close by, I would come back. But there are other spots that is cheaper and taste better in Woodland Hills area. I did appreciate that the cashier also was a food runner and cleaned up after you. I wished I knew this as I would have given her a tip when paying. So, don't forget to tip if you are going to dine in.

    This was a solid option in a packed shopping center. I've been to the panda express a bunch of times but never tried it so I decided to go in today. The food was solid, I really liked the beef kebab. The chicken was a bit dry, but the flavor was there. I wish the plate came with hummus for the price. The price was a little exorbitant (~$30 for this plate), which is why the rating is lower. I think you can find similar or better options for cheaper prices in the valley. Overall, not a bad option to have in the area

    My meal, sauces cost extra.

    So, this is a troubling review to write. The food was good. The salad was the best, proteins good, and starches okay. But the menu on Yelp and on their website versus the menu in reality are different, significantly. For the chicken breast and chicken koobideh plate, for instance, there is no appetizer or sauces provided as on the Yelp and website menu. Sauces extra cost. Plus, there is dual pricing; cash vs card. Not sure if it's a markup for using a card or discount for using cash. Feeling nickel and dimed... bait and switch. One and done; sadly.

    The food quality here is really good for the money...eaten here now a few times and we'll keep coming back.

    Chicken kebab plate

    Came to Oliver Pepper and was seriously impressed. I ordered the shawarma and my boyfriend got the chicken kebab plate--both were packed with flavor and absolutely delicious. Everything tasted fresh and well seasoned. The vibe of the place is great, but what really stood out was the hospitality. I got to chat with the owner and his family and they were incredibly welcoming and kind, which made the experience feel extra special. Solid food, great service, and a warm atmosphere. Definitely recommend and will be back!

    Food is superb , prices are reasonable , service is great and they always have a great playlist going !!!

    Photos clearly show tomato and jalapenos...
    Ellie M.

    Food is great but I won't be coming back. They charge 3.9% for using a credit card, they charge for a tomato that traditionally comes with a kabab meal, they charge for changing a line item for a like item and on and on. Basically they up charge you for everything. Also when I asked about the tomato which clearly shows on their screen as coming with the food, they said they changed their menu... So why didn't you change your images? I really despise businesses that nickel and dime for everything. And too bad, the food is decent but the service sucks

    The food was fresh. Meat was juicy. Extremely good service. I would recommend the beef kebab!

    Christina K.

    Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! The flavors were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and super satisfying. The service was super fast, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. We tried a few different dishes and loved every single one.

    The food is alright, not the best Mediterranean in the Valley. Portions of protein is very small. I wouldn't recommend this place.

Good to know for next time to check the back. Upon entering I didn't know what to expect, the restaurant is very clean and was empty at the time of arrival. They have a cute little bar and the staff is very friendly. Instead of ordering at the front, you can sit at your table and the server comes to you. Also, at the end I expected that they would automatically give us the bill, but actually you have to ask for it when you're ready. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma which arrived with rice, garlic sauce, and a fresh salad. I don't know if it's because I was starving, I had been running around all day and hadn't yet eaten a meal, but I was extremely impressed with the food. The chicken was hot and flavorful, I loved the garlic sauce, and the salad was literally fresh and light tasting. Some other people trickled in and then went outside and were playing games and smoking hookah. I don't know if it's standard for the hookah to be outside or not, but I thought that was nice that they did it that way. Overall I thought the food was excellent and I will definitely stop by again!

    WOW!!! Shirin is seriously one of the best Persian restaurants in Woodland Hills! From the moment…read morewe walked in, everything was fantastic--the atmosphere, the service, and most importantly, THE FOOD! We ordered the koobideh and chicken shish kebab, and both were absolutely phenomenal. The koobideh was incredibly juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, with that perfectly seasoned, slightly charred taste you hope for from a great Persian grill. Every bite was ridiculously good! And the chicken shish kebab was just as impressive--tender, juicy, beautifully grilled, and full of incredible flavor. The chicken had that perfect combination of a delicious char on the outside while staying moist and succulent inside. Honestly, I could have eaten another plate! The combination of the smoky grilled meat, aromatic seasonings, and fresh ingredients made this meal seriously mouth-watering. The portions were generous, everything came out beautifully prepared, and you could tell the food was made with care. The service deserves a huge shout-out as well. Everyone was warm, friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a great experience. Shirin is the kind of restaurant where you finish your meal and immediately start thinking about when you can come back. The koobideh and chicken shish kebab alone are worth the trip! If you're anywhere near Woodland Hills and love Persian food, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND TRY SHIRIN! Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. 10/10 -- we will definitely be back!
