"Opened in 2013 by chef Saghar Fanisalek, Taste of Tehran has mastered the art of Persian kebabs. Skewers of marinated kebabs are charbroiled to perfection and served with saffron-drizzled rice and charred tomato. Vegetarian options include ash reshteh (bean soup with noodles and fresh herbs topped with caramelized onions, yogurt, and dried mint) and maust o khiar (yogurt mixed with chopped Persian cucumber and mint)." - Melody Barooni
