Excellent food, staff, ambiance and service. Our group had a bunch of dishes to share family style. Everything was delicious, hot, fresh and generous portions. We will be back!

This family owned restaurant/convenience store is amazing! The humus and naan bread were some of the best we’ve had so far. Tenderloin skewer with rice was also really good+seasoned well. I like spice in my food and the owner was so kind to go out of his way to make a spicy sauce for us. Highly recommend!

I visited the store, there were multiple items that i have found that are actually expired. Be aware before actually buying anything from them, make sure to check the expire date of every product you want to buy. Today’s date is 3/15/23.

WOW – simply delicious and fantastic service. Both of our servers were SO kind, thoughtful, cheerful, and attentive. The food was phenomenal. My colleague and I are on a work trip and have been having the worst time finding good food; Caspian Bistro blew us out of the water. Everything was fresh and warm, the rice was cooked perfectly (of course), the guava juice was to DIE for, and it was some of the best hummus I’ve tasted. We ate until we thought we would die and still have SO much food left to bring to work tomorrow. Easily the best restaurant I’ve been to in ages. The interior decorating is also very charming!

Absolutely incredible food and atmosphere. With an outdoor patio, grocery section, and tons of art lining the walls, you will feel transported during your dining experience. The food was as beautifully presented as it was delicious; I’ll let the photos speak for themselves. I will say, the falafel were somewhat spongy and seemed reheated. I’m not sure if that texture was intentional. But everything else from the kebab to the gheimeh was spectacular.

Goodness the kabobs! Omgoodness. My firm belief still holds. No one knows how to do meat quite like the Persians. The food is OUT OF THIS WORLD. However, I must say, that the highlight of the meal for me was the tart cherry tea. It blew my mind and I will be coming back for more of it and the kabobs soon!

As a persian, I can say with reasonable authority that this does not represent the best of Iranian food. The service was slow and not what I would consider friendly. The restaurant itself is decent but way too hot. An error in charging my credit card caused the card company to stop my card for fraud. They input the charge manually for $2500 instead of $250, and the card company thankfully rejected the charges, and I then used a different card when they corrected the error. It caused a real pain involving calls to the card company. Not confidence inspiring. Maybe they just had a bad day. The persian grocery store is another matter, great groceries. Everything you need to make great persian recipes at home. Ok, the response from the owner is so offensive, I must respond. I have records, receipts, witnesses, and thus your response is a transparent effort to avoid responsibility. As noted, the $250 dollar reference was approximate. The exact amount is shown on the attached receipt. The original charge added a zero, perhaps by accident, but still. And all 6 members of our party can vouch for the rest of the review. Really? Your response makes things much worse. By the way, my card was canceled and I now have to wait for a replacement. You should have just said sorry. Oh, I do not like being accuse of fraud.

I’ve heard so many great things about this place and the food. I decided to give it a try. The customer service was great, everyone working there were super friendly. That’s the reason I’m giving them a 3 star, because while the service was great, the food, unfortunately, was not the best. I ordered eggplant appetizer, (I am a huge fan of eggplants cooked all sorts of ways) so I thought I can’t go wrong. I took one small bite and was going to puke, it tasted horrible. Husband later told me it was cooked with sheep fat and that’s the reason it tasted the way it did (I am absolutely disgusted with anything sheep, I can’t stand the taste). I ordered chicken wings dipped in pomegranate syrup and those weren’t bad. I ordered an ice cream desert, and it was amazing until I found a piece of hair in there.

I loved the food that this place had to offer but what was even more amazing was the service that was provided to us. While we were waiting, the person behind the counter( I am assuming he was the owner) helped us with the menu and the person serving us were the sweetest and kindest gentlemen. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be back for more!!
