"Longstanding Persian spot Javan’s had quite a ride over the last three years. In 2018, the space turned into Safir for a year, but Javan returned in 2019 to resume the same quality Persian they’ve been doing for years. The portion sizes are huge and the quality is great, especially when eating the $18 combination platter with chicken koobideh and beef koobideh with cucumber salad and rice. They’ve even incorporated Beyond Meat koobideh and into the menu, or ash joe, the more traditional garbanzo bean stew." - Eater Staff
