The 16 Best Persian Restaurants In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Santa Monica’s Tehran Market is an all-around great destination for Persian spices, snacks, and sweets on the Westside. But it’s their weekend kabob grill that earns it a spot on this guide. From 11am-3pm(ish), follow the charcoal smoke to their back parking lot, where you’ll find cooks grilling koobideh, marinated cornish game hens, vegetables, and lamb livers, among other juicy proteins. Along with fully loaded kabob plates, they’ve also got a bunch of stews, dips, and fresh lavash bread, which are all highly worth your time." - brant cox, arden shore, garrett snyder, sylvio martins
