I came to this restaurant based on my father’s recommendation; he told me that he used to eat at this restaurant 20 years ago, and yet this is one of the best Persian restaurants around here. The owner of the restaurant, Davood, is very hospitable and friendly with the customers. Everything in the restaurant is freshly made every day. Absolutely delicious food; highly recommended. They also have upstairs extra tables and spaces for family and friends' occasions.

Nice people, good food. Clean place and reasonable pricing. Mixed grill was shared between four, plenty of excellently grilled meats. Perfectly cooked, fluffy long grain rice, crispy chips and OK ‘naan’. Be careful with allergies, no official info available and spotty staff knowledge. Good visit.
