First time trying this place. Didn't know what to expect. Orders kabobs and chicken breast. Meat was juicy, tender, and delicious. Got thr hummus with it. Hummus tasted really good. I would recommend this place for sure.

The sabzi gormeh was delicious and they accommodated my low-carb request by giving me a side of grilled vegetables instead of the rice. I also got a big tray of chicken kebabs for a dinner party and they were really appreciated. I will say that the kebabs could have been juicier but maybe it's because we reheated them later.

Just order filet mignon and chicken, it was really dry and blend. No taste at all. Really bad experience. I never had a kebab that bad in my life! I can’t even eat it: (

Had joojeh kabab which was ok. 3.5 star. Chicken was dry not juicy nor well done. Used to be better before.

A top choice for me when I order on Ubereats. Great portions for the price and consistently good! My favorite is the koobideh and chicken thigh kabob combo with zereshk polo and sumac on the side - it always hits the spot.

I had been craving Kabobs and after getting my car serviced I found this place and thought of checking it out. I got the beef kabab, half rice and salad. And an extra sife of rice to-go. Everything came out perfect! Hit the spot!

Great customer service but the food wasn’t good at all. Seemed like no one tasted the seasoning for kababs before putting them on the menu

If I could add more stars I would. I’ve ordered food from here through DoorDash so many times. Today was my first time coming in person and I loved it. I’m not too familiar with the names of the food, but the staff was super friendly! It is definitely worth the drive to come in person, this is my favorite place for Kabobs. Food is amazing!

Wasn't sure this was same place at first, the inside is completely blocked off and you can only take food out. There is a picnic table outside and the staff was super friendly and wiped the table down for us but it was cold so we ate in the car. The food was amazing!

Review is mainly for the kabob plates.
5-Star quality, 5-Star flavor, 5-Star service, 4-Star price.
It’s mainly take out with a few tables outside during this pandemic. The food is a little pricey but worth it every now and then.

Never eat there but I pick up doordash from them a lot and the staff is always friendly and it seems popular with customers.

Thoroughly enjoyed my wrap here! I chose the chicken thigh lavash wrap and it tasted fresh both in terms of the seasoned chicken and crisp and salad inside. And for under 10 bucks, it’s very reasonable! Friendly and patient manager (owner?) as well! Loved that they had outdoor seating as well!

Real Kabob = Real Deal! Tucked away in this unassuming strip mall (read: rundown) is a restaurant that's a Must Try!
Driven past often, did not notice, but Thanks to a randomly chosen restaurant for delivery, I then went searching for the Best Lamb I've had since I made it! Oh-so-tender lamb! Mad respect for the cook that respects the lamb! (Mum loved her lunch, said she could eat there once a week easily! From our Welsh/English ancestry, lamb is a favorite that doesn't get the love it deserves here in the US.unless it's expensive)

My first order was lamb kabob with rice/salad & hummus. I was hesitant about ordering kabobs since I prefer my meat sliced thin & not chunky like the kabobs I'm typically served. But I wanted lamb. And I got a gorgeous strip of lamb that had the tiny bit of pink center that says "perfection" to my picky tongue. It would've easily made 3 meals for me if it wasn't so darn tasty that it only made 2 meals.with hummus left over.
Looking forward to trying other dishes. We'll be regulars, for sure!

Great food and service. I have been coming here for years. Uncle Ray and his team do a fantastic job. For now there is only outside seating because of Covid. But you will love the food. A+

I ordered 16 koobideh kebob and they sent it over really fast, no wonder why they are uncooked and groas. They just warm up the uncooked meat and send it over. When I called to complain the lady said it is not possible. Thanks for letting me know.

Plain looking spot in a strip mall, with amazing flavors and tasty Persian dishes. Very flavorful meats and rice, in their authentic Persian cuisine. Do go off peak when they are not in a hurry, you will get better quality food.
