We were in the area yesterday and decided to stop for kabob. It’s a very pleasant restaurant with variety of Persian dishes. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. I felt I had been coming to the restaurant for years. That’s how he made me feel. He told us about the menu and offer a tea on the house. I ordered food and sat down, he brought complimentary bread and mast moosir on the house again. The service was excellent. The portions were big and tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant both for the service and quality of the food. I would go back to try other dishes. They also do catering.

Been coming to see Mike for years before he moved to this location. We drive 40 minutes just to eat here its that good. Ive always loved the food and the service is always above and beyond. The quality of the food is simply delicious! Highly recommend it. The chicken kabob is my favorite. So full of flavor and when you combine the hummus and garlic sauce with it! OMG!

I drive up from San Diego to eat here, its that good. The staff is so nice, the complementary bread is warm, flaky, and delicious, the garlic sauce is flavorful and perfect. The staff is so kind, makes great recommendations. You can also choose between dark meat or white meat for the chicken! Its so tender, flavorful, and the portions are huge.

This place is amazing, my friend! Whenever I come here, I always go for the Chicken curry or beef koobideh. Let me tell you, they are absolutely mouthwatering! I highly recommend you try them out. You wont be disappointed!

OMG! The Persian food I remember, excellent flavor, simply delicious beyond description. Came with my foodie nephew to have the Persian Mediterranean food weve been looking for. I called Mike, the former owner of another restaurant, I hadnt seen him and wasnt aware he had a new place. Anyways we made the trip from Bellflower, 33 miles to try his food, said it was the same concept as Peris that he previously owned. Everything amazing, we had a family meal that we went to have 2 more meals at home. Chicken kabobs, beef and chicken kobideh, grilled veggies, all excellent the bread I have to say was the best, freshly made, little crispy, with hummus or butter, so delicious we almost filled up it, we ate 2 1/2 of them. Worth the drive, will be going again. Cant forget the garlic cream, completes the whole meal.

What Can say about this place. Mr. Mehrdad (Mike) is such a wonderful, humble and hospitable person. The food quality and quantity is perfect enough. The food here is very scrumptious 😋. I have ordered a lot of food. The whole roasted chicken was amazing and in perfection. The chicken thigh kabab is delicious. I cant introduce the Kobidah Kabab, you better go and try it yourselves, Ill simply say it was amazing. The Naan was tasty and the black tea took me back to the huge Persia country through silk road in Afghanistan.

With such an employee at the checkout, they will lose all customers. I came in today and asked that I wanted a plate of beef and rice. he began to insist that I tell him the number of the dish. I don’t know from the names what they have. just give me any beef with rice. he still said which number was which number. I had to leave. Ill never come here again
