This is my favorite restaurant in TO! The food is exquisite every time and the quality of their chicken is unmatched. My favorite is the juicy chicken. Although hummus isn't an Iranian dip, they make some of the best. read more

A+++++ Sadaf has a beautiful new look, and as always, the food was absolutely amazing. Our waiter, Ali Reza, provided excellent service -- he was knowledgeable, attentive, and made wonderful recommendations throughout our meal. I highly recommend trying Sadaf, especially the Thousand Oaks location. It was a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. read more

I'm a big fan of Persian food, and I've eaten in many a restaurants. Some good, some not so good, and in case of Sadaf, some amazing ones. This food is so good, it is the standard to be compared with. The only other time I had Persian food this good, was twice. My mom's cooking and another Persian restaurant in San Jose. If you are here you're in good, nay great hands. I know I get too poetic sometimes. But bear with me. Order any of the appetizers, and you will be superbly satisfied. The Naderi Kabob, done medium rare and Albaloo Polo (cherry rice), we're literally delectable. I didn't get a chance to take a picture. Sorry! My bad. The restaurant is at the site of N old Persian restaurant, but completely redone, and redecorated. Staff are professionally trained and service is just excellent. Can't wait to visit this place again. Come for a date, come with family. Update! Update...my second visit in just as many months, and the service and quality remain excellent. This time I tried the combination filet mignon and ground beef kabobs. In a word, Delish! Wait! Is that word? Desert was fresh read more

Excellent meal, great service, and so much food, we ended up taking enough home for another meal. The chicken was outstanding, definitely a place to return to again in the future. read more

We've been customers of Sadaf for years ever since they first opened. Our favorite dish was the juicy chicken but tonight what they gave us was absolutely terrible. Dry chicken breast with no taste. First they ruined the kabob koobideh, then the stews lost their quality and now the tasty chicken. What an absolute shame. Won't be going back. We'd rather drive an hour to Glendale to get real tasty Persian food than drive 12 minutes to get poor quality food. Only reason for second star is their service. Food doesn't deserve a single star. read more

We were in the Malibu area and decided to come here for lunch. We were seated right away, Leyla was absolutely a delight to speak to. She was in charge and very confident in handling a group of 8 men who may or may not have been loud and obnoxious at times. She made suggestions, she agreed to every single request and everything came out in time, not a single mistake. As usual, the food was incredibly delicious and always a wonderful experience when we come here. The place is emaculate, clean, classy, the wait staff is friendly and helpful. We will always opt to come here whenever we are north of the Valley. Thanks you Leyla!!!! By the way, she's in the photo with our group. read more

Love this Resturant, great food, great service.

We love this place! Food is always good. Customer service is great. They just renovated an extra room.

Loved Sadaf!!!! My Persian man said it was as if he was eating a home cooked meal :) We got the Gheimeh Bademjan and Ghormeh Sabz- both vegetarian, both delicious. Each entree comes with a generous serving of rice and tadig. It was enough for almost two meals each! We ordered pick up- the staff were very very friendly and the space was nice! Inside and outside dining, and a cute bar area. Parking is free and in the back, then you walk down to the main street to find the entrance. We will be back!! read more

We came here for a birthday on a Friday night and were able to get seated immediately for 6 (although a recommendation is probably recommended). I don't eat a lot of Persian food but everything tasted fresh and authentic. We ordered the combo stew, combo appetizer, combo #5, and lamb rack. My standouts were the lentil stew, hummus, and lamb rack. I ordered the dough drink as well, which is a yogurt-y, dill drink, and it was good but not to my taste. Service was great! read more

Here's a We celebrated our anniversary here tonight, and everything was absolutely perfect. We started with the mushroom shrimp and mushroom mussels with lavash bread--both were incredible. The shrimp was especially delicious, even better than expected, and the mussels were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly paired with the bread. For our main course, we ordered two Beef Sultani plates (filet mignon and koobideh), and both were outstanding--very tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The restaurant itself has recently expanded, and the new space is beautiful--larger, elegant, and very well designed. The atmosphere feels warm and inviting, and we loved the live saxophone music (Fridays and Saturdays from 6-9 PM), which added such a special touch to the evening. A special thank you to our server, Mohaddas, for her kind smile, calm energy, and excellent service. She truly made our experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for delicious Persian food, a great ambiance, and a memorable dining experience. We'll definitely be back! read more

We hosted a graduation party at their newly remodeled private event room and everything was exceptionally fantastic. We had over 30+ people attend and everyone was raving about the food, the ambiance, and the service etc. I would highly recommend for you to host your next event Sadaf Thousand Oaks. Rest assured that everything will be amazing and more read more

Spectacular!!! The food, service and friendly vibe made our experience worth while. The food spoke for itself. The beef koobideh was like wagyu tender and juicy. My wife had the juicy chicken (literally) and it was one of the best chicken kabobs I ever had. Our mouth was savoring on every bite. It was insane! Our brains can't keep up on how to process the flavors. Please do yourself a favor. If you're planning to go to Raffi's Place, do yourself a favor and come to this place. You won't be disappointed. Next time we'll try their 3 stew dishes and more kabobs! read more

We love this homey Persian restaurant. Great food. Lovely staff. Unfortunately, recently they have decided to have belly dancing with Arabic music. We appreciate the intention of providing entertainment for the customers but perhaps a more culturally appropriate performance would be better suited (jazz performer was very nice and soothing) Persian culture doesn't have belly dancing and we certainly don't need Arabic music blasting in the background while enjoying 3000 years of persian culinary wisdom. read more

First time I went there was about 7 yrs ago, it was good back then and is still good now. My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding annv there and it was amazing. Service is always good, and quality of food is still great. If you like lamb, this is the place to go.. read more

Sadaf has arguably the best Persian food in all of LA and I specifically love this location. It is very chill, amazing service, easy parking, and a lot less packed compared to the very popular Encino location. I've been eating at Sadaf for a lot of my life and I will always recommend. 10/10 read more

We had such a wonderful experience at Sadaf Restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious ,fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Everything tasted authentic and high quality. Even though the restaurant was extremely busy, our server Moha gave our table exceptional attention. She was warm, professional, patient, and made sure everything was perfect for us. We never felt rushed or ignored, which truly says a lot during such a crowded time. Because of her outstanding service, I honestly prefer to visit on days when Moha is working. She truly makes the dining experience special. Thank you, Sadaf, for the amazing food and wonderful hospitality. We will definitely be coming read more

This is one of the best restaurants in the area if you want perfectly cooked food, great ingredients, and amazing Persian dishes. I've been going here for about a year now, and anytime I've gone, or ordered delivery, the food is 10/10. Big portions too. Highly recommend the combination 2 dinner and upgrading the salad to the Sadaf salad.

I ordered over the phone and picked up two entrees on time. They were the juicy chicken and beef & chicken koobideh for $54. Everything tasted good and it's always better to dine in, but we were exhausted from a long day out. The only improvement they can make for to go orders is to give you more bread. In the past, they've provided lots of bread and butter but this time I paid an extra 25 cent fee and got no butter and 1 serving of the bread when I ordered 2 entrees... also, they only provided 2 sumac packets but in the past its been so much more...not a deal breaker but they changed.. read more
