    Tehran plate with side of salad and rice(comes with order)
    Lyna O.

    Experience: Came here on a Sat early evening. No reservations, just walk up. We were seated outside, then once a party left we took the table inside by the window. Small space but cozy. There were people there. The food came out pretty quickly, music was lively inside. Cute location, I liked the cafe style set up. First time trying Persian food. Was fun being in this enclave. It's a good location and next to many other bakeries, shops, etc. Food: Ordered 3 small plates (roasted eggplant dip, hummus, and pickled veggies), tahdig with 2 stews, and the Tehran plate special, which came with a plate or rice and a salad. Everything was very very tasty. From the dips to the stews, rice, and juicy meets. Very fresh, seasoned well, good flavor, a great dinner meal. Service: It was more of an order at the counter experience, not much interaction, but didn't mind it. Parking: Metered parking on Westwood, on a Saturday evening, plenty of open spaces. Ended up parking in a neighborhood 2 minutes from the restaurant, very easy and convenient. Verdict: Fun date night idea and location. Would def recommend the cuisine to anyone, can't go wrong, delicious food.

    Chicken Barg kabob

    Amazing food and service. One of the best kabobs I've had. The two people working there did it all. A true family business. We will definitely be back and definitely recommend!

    Cute Persian spot on Robertson

    Visiting the area and found this spot near me, wow what a treat. The Lady who welcomed me and my friends is the hostess, cook and food runner. Worth the wait and I would wait again. Had the Chicken (Flat) kabob and salad with a side of pickled vegetables. YUMMY!!! Truly enjoyed the visit, sitting outside and enjoying this meal.

    The Chelo Kabob Koobideh was a bit dry and just tasted like hamburger. Mast O Mosir was good. Nothing good enough for me to try anything else on the menu.

    The molded pita bread
    Totally C.

    Today I placed an order through GRUBHUB. I was craving the Ash e Reshteh soup because I hadn't had it in years. I've never eaten here before but I used to get the soup in Glendale. I ordered the soup with tabouli salad and requested pita bread on the side. My order was delivered and while I was eating the soup I noticed green mold on the pita bread. I called the restaurant and spoke to a woman and told her that there was mold on the pita bread. She said that it doesn't come with pita bread anyways. I told her that doesn't justify why I received the bread with mold on it. I told her that I'm going to post a review. She said do whatever you like!

    K7-Koobideh

    The food was amazing in my opinion, as one of the most underrated Persian restaurants in California. I got the #K7 and the meat was very flavorful with soft buttery rice and roasted veggies. I would definitely recommend anyone who loves beef to try it. A sweet lady runs the restaurant and although it was just my friends and I inside, she was so personable and made us feel at home. The inside of the restaurant is a little small but also has lots of outdoor seating where you can enjoy your meal. I personally would love to go again just to support the wonderful lady who works there but the food is definitely worthwhile as well. Overall I strongly recommend!!

    Small and looks a little hole in the wall - we walked by and thought we had missed it first. Mostly outdoor seating with some cramped indoor. We ordered at counter and paid and then sat down. I think a son came in to eat at his parents place and he took the table next to us and proceeded to have two cell conversations loudly. First on one phone and then a second cell rang and he spoke on that. When I had a call come in during dinner I stepped outside to be polite but he obviously didn't show the same courtesy of those dining. Later when we left the woman from the kitchen had come out to sit at his table and talk. Mast o mousir was nice and creamy though I prefer the shallots to be diced and small not whole pieces. There were huge chunks of garlic. The photo captures how the salmon looked when it was brought out - broken pieces and not great presentation. The rice looked like it had orange food coloring poured on top, didn't look or taste like saffron. The menu had also stated that the rice that came with the dish was rice with dill and Lima beans, bagahli polo was not served. For a $17 entree I would have expected at least a full tomato but it was not - just a half of a grilled tomato and it didn't seem fresh. To make it worse, the salmon had multiple bones. When you order salmon filet you expect it deboned. I get it when they miss one but this had over 10 when I gave up. The chicken was dry and N said it didn't live up to his expectations. I was disappointed and didn't finish. I would not return.

    A colleague mentioned this place and although I avoid the Beverly Center like the plague, I figured…read morea trip was in order to see how good they were. Thankfully, the place was easy to find once you arrived off the Bloomingdale's Court elevator. At first glance, the place was a ghost town. Exposed to the rest of the mall, they have an advantage for a decent view with the glass window as their one wall. With the exception of that, I felt like you could see a place like this at LAX. I honestly though they were closed, so I did a quick walk-around then by the time I came back, a girl was at the host stand. I told her I placed an order to-go and she said she saw my order being prepared in the back. I asked to see a menu since it was slightly different than what was being offered online. As I went to the bar area, a man came by asking if they were open so I guess he encountered the same desolate environment that I had. Another woman came out from the back to see if I was being helped. Decided to go with a non-alcoholic mojito and for some odd reason, a brownie. Food was brought out and I had a brief wait as she prepared the drink for me. Service was pleasant with the ladies I had dealt with. As for the food, I actually ordered the chicken tenders and fries from the kids menu ($12). Fries were tasty, and the chicken was flavorful. I don't say this often, but it was almost a little too salty. I did ask for bbq sauce but this was forgotten, so I'm glad the meat was decent on its own. As for the brownie, it was a rather small one but it was good. The mojito was okay; I can't believe I'm saying this but I guess I prefer the real (alcoholic) version, although I'm glad they have these 'refresher' options on the menu. Not going to lie, this place is rather expensive, but it's nice to have a new option in this area where the food is actually good. I wish Noor Cafe the best!

What a lovely option for lunch and or dinner. The ceiling is incredibly comfortable with the services from me.

I almost wish that I wanted to make french fries and a beautifully presented circular wooden plate, and I ordered ice cold brew coffee absolutely delicious Brenda Sestrap and they offer a lot of different items and the prices are incredible. I really enjoyed my steak sandwich with jalapeños you didn't even take me 10 minutes from order to receive in and yeah I'll share again just added you to the flavor This is a wonderful option for DaleII, lunch, or if you're only a week in visitor?

    Nestled in the heart of Beverly Hills, Nate 'n Al's isn't going to win any awards for interior…read moredesign. Old-school booths, a deli counter, and décor that basically says, "We were here before you could afford to shop on Rodeo Drive." But when it comes to the food, this place can hang with the best New York delis. And before we even ordered, out came the complimentary pickle platter--several varieties of pickles, because apparently at a real Jewish deli, amuse-bouche is French for "here's a plate of cucumbers soaking in vinegar." Sweet, sour, half-sour, crunchy--basically a pickle flight without the Beverly Hills price tag. The matzo ball soup was top-notch--soup simplicity at its finest. Rich chicken broth, a moist and tender matzo ball, noodles, and carrots. Nothing fancy, nothing reinvented, nothing served with microgreens or truffle foam. Just exactly what matzo ball soup is supposed to be. Then came our off-menu creation: corned beef and turkey with house-made coleslaw and Russian dressing on toasted sourdough. It arrived piled high enough to require FAA clearance, yet somehow the structural integrity was flawless. I ate the entire thing without a single piece of shredded cabbage escaping onto the plate. If Nate 'n Al's ever gets out of the deli business and goes into general contracting, hire them immediately. With sandwich-building skills like these, they could put up an 80-story high-rise on the San Andreas Fault and not lose a window. The atmosphere is equally authentic. A couple of the servers looked like they could have walked straight onto the set of The Sopranos without an audition. One compact, old-school Italian-looking gentleman in particular had me wondering whether my sandwich came with a side of "fuhgeddaboudit." So forego the fancy Beverly Hills lunch where your entrée arrives under a silver dome and costs about the same as a car payment. Go to Nate 'n Al's, get a real deli sandwich and a bowl of matzo ball soup, then walk a few steps over to Rodeo Drive and spend all the money you saved. Old school. No pretense. Serious deli. And apparently some of the finest sandwich engineering in Southern California.

You can park…read morefor free for the first two hours right next door at the public parking structure next to the Starbucks. This place feels very old, but it's quaint in its overall atmosphere with the booths, and the large variety of options at the deli counter. The service was nice and friendly enough, and our food was delivered quickly. We ordered potato pancakes, which were thick and crispy, but not really flavorful. The applesauce and sour cream was watered down and thin. I ordered a 'Sky High' type of sandwich, which is corned beef with thousand island (Russian) dressing, Cole slaw and Swiss cheese on rye. Again, my sandwich was ok and the potato salad was not great. Even the Russian dressing tasted watery. My lunch date had a nova lox plate 'with the works' with an everything bagel. If you order 'with the works,' it costs extra which I think is silly for tomatoes, capers, and onions- especially if those items should already be on a lox plate. Overall, I thought the food was just ok in comparison to the many delis I have been to in my life.

FOOD -- I've been to the Manhattan Beach location, but mostly tried new items this time around. Everything was good, but the parker house rolls, mac and cheese, NY strip, and lobster fra diavolo stood out. The rolls came out hot and fresh, with lots of herbs baked into them. The steak was cooked perfectly. The mac and cheese was creamy and smoky; I usually dislike restaurant mac but this one is so good. And the lobster fra diavolo was perfect. Lots of lobster pieces, with a well balanced red sauce, and perfectly cooked spaghetti. We celebrated my birthday and they brought out a sticky toffee pudding for dessert at the end of the meal. It's served with a scoop of ice cream. SERVICE -- It was a slower evening, so maybe that contributed to the attentiveness, but the staff here did not miss a beat. We were never left waiting for anything. We also got great suggestions. And they were just overall very pleasant. AMBIANCE -- The restaurant is beautiful. Perfect for date night. They had a lovely outdoor seating area as well, but it was humid the evening we came so we requested we be sat inside. Inside, there are a lot of booths, which was nice and spacious for two. PARKING -- Valet is right out front. I believe it was $20 with validation.
