The 16 Best Persian Restaurants In LA
"You’ll instantly notice that this counter-service Persian spot in Silver Lake is different from LA’s more traditional kabob houses and banquet halls. Azizam is more of a breezy, sun-drenched cafe with a soft rock playlist and a lush patio where you can unwind with a book and pomegranate radler. But even though the backdrop feels unique, the food is classic, homey, and all-around delicious. Tomato-y khoresh bademjan comes with freshly baked barbari and white rice, grapefruit-sized kofteh tabrizi are studded with walnuts and dried fruit, and juicy, turmeric-stained chicken legs are served over equally fragrant turmeric rice with fried shallots." - brant cox, arden shore, garrett snyder, sylvio martins
