Persian Basket Kitchen & Bar

Fair prices, solid portions, excellent service, unique and nice atmosphere! I’m not familiar with Persian food so I can’t speak much on taste, but this was a wonderful experience. Farid was wonderful and very helpful - highly recommend coming here! It is also next door to a Persian market, so you can pick up some specialty items there. I’m from Seattle, and it’s truly difficult to find reasonably priced/solid portions and exemplary service like this.

My family and I drove from Nashville to Atlanta for the Andy and Sasy concert, and of course we had to try a Persian restaurant while we were there. After looking at a few options, we chose Persian Basket, and we are so glad we did. There’s a Persian market right next door, which is such a bonus for picking up all the Persian goodies. The food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious. I had the tachin with a skewer of chicken barg kabob, while my family tried several of the kabobs. Every kabob was incredibly juicy and tender. The tachin was outstanding—so much flavor packed into one dish—and it came with a fresh Shirazi salad that was absolutely delicious.

Great food for a hungry but picky day. Glad we found this place, the food was amazing, and didn't hurt stomach in any aftermath. I'll listen to be learned by Indian restaurants, food doesn't have to be hot to be flavorful, this restaurant plenty illustrated that. Another interesting find was the artwork, enjoyed how different it was from the generic restaurant decor that we are used to,

Persian Basket truly offers an exceptional dining experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambience was beautiful and welcoming, setting the tone for a memorable evening. The staff were extraordinary, and a special mention must go to the General Manager, Farid, who was incredibly attentive and genuinely engaged with guests on the floor. He took the time to converse with customers and made everyone feel warmly welcomed. Our server, Bergman, was equally outstanding, attentive, professional, and provided top-notch service throughout the meal. The meal began with a complimentary bread plate featuring goat cheese, olives, and assorted vegetables. The flatbread was incredibly soft, fluffy, and delicious. For appetizers, we ordered the Mirza Ghasemi, which had a perfectly balanced smoky eggplant flavor topped with fried onions, absolutely delicious with the bread. The trio tapas was another highlight: flavorful hummus, a well-made baba ghanoush, and a perfectly seasoned shallot yogurt, making it an ideal dip trio. The falafel was also very well prepared, crispy on the outside and tender inside. For the main course, my child loved the bone-in Cornish hen Joje Kabob. The chicken was juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The Kabob Koobideh was succulent and paired beautifully with the fragrant saffron rice, and the tahdig was crisped to absolute perfection. Dessert was truly out of this world. The kunafeh was one of the best I’ve ever had, paired wonderfully with saffron ice cream. The saffron ice cream itself deserves special praise, it was rich, creamy, delicately infused with saffron, and elevated by a drizzle of rose-flavored caramel sauce. To end the meal, the Turkish coffee was just perfect. An outstanding experience from start to finish. I would 100% come back and highly recommend Persian Basket.

This Persian restaurant was absolutely outstanding! The smoked eggplant dish had such a rich and deep flavor, and every kebab we tried was delicious. To finish, the cardamom ice cream with honey was truly heavenly. With amazing food, warm atmosphere, and excellent service, this is definitely a place I’d love to come back to.

Persian Basket Kitchen & Bar truly delivers an exceptional dining experience. The food quality and authentic Persian flavors are absolutely top-tier—everything is prepared with care, balance, and incredible taste. If you’re looking to experience real Persian cuisine, this restaurant is hands down one of the best choices. Farid, the general manager, along with the rest of the staff, is warm, friendly, and genuinely respectful. What really stands out is Farid’s personal attention—he makes a point of checking with customers to ensure the food is prepared exactly the way they like it, which shows true dedication to hospitality and customer satisfaction. From the welcoming atmosphere to the outstanding food, Persian Basket Kitchen & Bar sets a high standard. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates authentic Persian food and excellent service.

Would give service 6 stars if possible- Farid made us feel very welcome and special right as we entered. He was such an engaging and kind host- added to our dining experience tenfold! Thank you! The food and ambiance was also great. We will be back again.

Delicious! Crisp fries. Kunefer (Turkish dessert) and Persian Ice Cream is a match made in heaven. Turkish coffee was well prepared too. I stopped in for the Market adjacent to the kitchen but then I ventured in for a quick snack. The service started off slow but gracefully improved before leaving. We were gifted ice cream to go as a gesture of good faith from the owner [good communicator from Tehran. Showed pics of his family and we shared a moment about his country and culture. Showed pic of his father and family which was welcoming] Gorgeous establishment with golden decor and Persian Art Poems

Nice! ++. Ambiance is dramatic yet understated DR. A high ceiling with interesting art lends an interesting vibe to PBK in an unassuming suburbia. ++. Food is Persian and one of the best around Atlanta. Their bread plate is interesting with a thin bread that's like thin focaccia, (feta?) cheese, fresh basil, nuts and cucumber slices. For main, we tried their kabob dishes and substituted saffron rice for cauliflower. My Spring Mtn Chicken kabob was tender and moist and cauliflower wasn't overcooked:). I really liked their barberries I got on the side. Everything was well balanced. My friend's tenderloin kabob was nicely seasoned but was a bit gamey. +. Price is $40 - $60 pp + bevies. +. Service was friendly and prompt. ++. Parking is a private lot shared with their market next door. Definitely worth a revisit!

I came in for a weekday lunch and had a terrific chicken kebab platter. It was definitely one of the more flavorful kebab plates I have had. It came with a huge portion of rice as well, and some tasty veggies and yogurt dip. It also came with a nice complimentary platter of walnuts, feta, and greens. I will definitely come back.

My friends suggested we come here for dinner so we did. BESTEST. DECISION. BY. FAR. !. The customer service is amazing and we were a large party and they accommodated all of us. The food is just delicious ! I had the tubule and the falafel and it was amazing! I loved it! My friends had lamb and other items and they also loved it. They all licked their plates clean! The restaurant is medium size but very spacious and very good decor. The food tastes very good and when you are looking for great Persian cuisine, this is your place.

Great find here in John's Creek for a nice evening out. I got mine to go but I was impressed enough with the decor and ambiance to add this to my list of "fancy" places. The wait staff were super friendly and had my food ready when I arrived. The trout was delicious and had enough for 2 people. The naan was perfect and the salad was on point too. There is a store next door where you can buy a ton of things for your own kitchen.

Me and my friend went to try them, Ambience is ok I pictured something Persian colorful. My server was good and friendly, he smiles all the time and polite. My friend order was what they presented on menu, (Chichen kebab with rice) no hard !! however mine wasn't! in my humble opinion. I had The (Ghormeh Sabzi Stew ), which it only came with 3 little pieces of lamb if it was lamb! with a kind of soup red kidney beans & herbs which weren't properly cooked very difficult to eat with the vines still in it and tasteless, even my friend tried and agreed. I asked my server if the chef could give me 2 more pieces and chef said no because it's weighted by portion. For $23, I would spect more quality and better portion and include their famous bread too. I didn't have drinks only water. Hope they take this plate out of menu if not improved. The price seems like they had raised recently too! It says $16 in pic but is $23 now.

**Amazing Experience!** Persian Basket Kitchen and Bar is a gem! From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the beautiful atmosphere. The decor is elegant and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a memorable dining experience. We started with a selection of drinks and appetizers, all of which were fantastic. The flavors were rich and authentic, giving us a wonderful introduction to Mediterranean and Persian cuisine. The highlight of our meal was definitely the salmon - it was cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. The service was excellent throughout our visit. The staff were attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. I highly recommend Persian Basket Kitchen and Bar for anyone looking to enjoy great food in a beautiful setting with top-notch service. We will definitely be back!

I have been here several times and I highly recommend this place! It's one of the only Persian places that has plant based kebab koobideh on their menu, among a full regular menu. They are able to accommodate large parties, service is consistent and very hospitable, with a nice atmosphere. Great lunch spot and date night spot as well. It's a little hidden off the main road, but you'll be so glad when you've found it. Will definitely be returning

really good food our server Bergman was very attentive. The restaurant was a little noisey but overall very good experience.

Had a great event here where we sampled the tomato/cucumber salad (loved it), smoked eggplant with Naan (very smokey, and with carmelized onions), falafel, kubideh/salmon/chicken pieces cooked to perfection and 2 types of rice. I loved the kubideh kabob the most, although in general it's my favorite.Awesome event, all of the food was delicious, and the restaurant was very accommodating. I will definitely come back and try their other dishes. I heard they have a delicious salmon pasta so I will be back for that too!

I love this place. The service is great and the food is amazing. You really cannot go wrong with anything you choose. There's also a cute market next door you can explore as well if you have a wait time. I always feel like I'm in a new world when I eat here. Please try it if you haven't already.

Persian Basket continues to thrive in the heart of alpharetta ! The service, food and drinks are top Notch! The smoked eggplant dip is the best you will have! They are great for catering for your special events ! Cocktails are made from scratch by the wonderful manager and bartender in highly recommend trying them Out ! The decor is refreshing and its always clean!

This is such a great restaurant with consistently good food, beautiful ambiance, always served with warmth and attentive cordiality. I enjoyed the chicken barg and my husband the lamb stew, ending the meal on a sweet note with baklava. Delicious. Farid the GM set the tone as we walked in with a friendly greeting, and our server Bergman was polite and responsive. All in all, a great experience. So lucky to have such a great restaurant in Alpharetta!

Went for dinner with friends here last night. We ordered trio app, rice cake, shish kebab and lamb chops. Except for rice cake, everything was delicious. I feel like rice cake had a lot going on with too many ingredients. We asked to substitute lentil rice and fava bean rice to replace basmati that came with other entrees. Lamb chops were the best I have ever eaten. Rice dishes, naan, apps were all delicious. They did charge a dollar for extra naan. We ordered kunifa dessert which was pretty, warm and perfectly sweet without being overwhelming. Service was spotty. Our server was courteous but we had to ask for water, remind her for our naan twice and just not what I expect when I am dropping 200 dollars on a dinner (including takeout). Tables were also very close to each other. I am comparing it to delbar which is similar food with a much attentive service and feels a little upscale.

The restaurant is tucked away behind Waffle House. There was a pretty nice crowd when we arrived. We had reservations so it didn't take long to seat us. The setup was nicely done, with all tables & chairs, no booths with outside seating. Depending on the crowd it was quite loud. Not so loud that I couldn't hear the person I was dining with but this is not a quiet dining place. Apps We got the duck & eggplant appetizer. The duck was delicious. The eggplant we didn't care for as much. I like eggplant but it tasted prechewed if you can imagine that. Entrees We went with salmon pasta & grilled fish. Easy right? The Salmon was overcooked & fish ended up being fried although our Waiter told us it was grilled. Entrees were OK. Nothing to brag about or order again. Drinks I got a cocktail & forgot what my husband got but they came out in a decent amount of time & were good. Dessert Saffron ice cream was yummy. I shared it but you may not want to. Yum!! The Baclava cheesecake was pretty good. Took it to go & held up well 2 days later. Overall, the duck is worth going back for. The presentation of every dish is picture-ready. They add fresh herbs to everything which was refreshing. The Bar area looked nice if you'd want to stop in for a drink.

This is our first visit and it definitely would not be the last. So glad we found this place. When we first walked in, The manager greeted us in a very welcoming and fun manner. At that moment we felt like we made the right choice coming here. The food was unique, tasty and prepared well. Service was excellent and we noticed that the manager(owner) took the time to mingle making sure everyone was enjoying themselves. The restaurant has a bright look with Persian style decorations that were not too overwhelming. They were very accommodating when we brought in a cake for a birthday celebration. We would recommend this place anytime.

This place is super cute and right by this Persian basket market. It's a little tucked away from the main streets so it is nice and quiet. I sat outside and while it's super nice and cute there were lots of flies. So next time I'll probably sit inside or wait till fall or something it's it outside. The food was delicious! I got the roasted eggplant stew and the flavors were so delicious. It comes with lamb, and the lamb and eggplant and tomatoes in the stew all went together so well. Service was awesome also! Waiter was very attentive even though I was the only one sitting outside.

Outstanding service and food. Celebrated our dad's 98th birthday. Treated us like royalty. Keegan was the best! Thank you.

We went here for my mom's birthday dinner and it was great! Service was fast. All the food was honestly so good and authentic. The restaurant itself is so cute, music is calm, and the vibe is great. Feels like you're in a beachside country. The saffron ice cream is honestly so amazing I can eat a tub

Wow! Where do I begin? I popped in to meet some friends for dinner here. The restaurant is not visible from the main road but definitely worth finding! Inside was beautifully appointed with simple decor appropriate for the space. The pictures did not prepare me for the deliciousness my mouth was about to encounter. The taste and texture of every dish was beautifully crafted, presented and most importantly; authentic. My friend ordered several dishes. We had falafel, salad, olives, an eggplant dish, salmon, beef, rice and we even had dessert! The eggplant dish was favorite but the pomegranate cheesecake was absolutely amazing! The staff was also extremely attentive to us and kept the table clear of excess dishes. Fari was the bartender and he got everyone's drink perfect. I enjoyed the spicy margarita and friends enjoyed red wine. Simply scrumptious food and drinks here! Why are you still reading this!?! Grab your friends/family and go!

Food is always good, my husband went with his coworkers and found out food was really good, then we start going there. Service is not bad, sometimes they come every 1 mins makes us feel like they are in a rush, which happened couple of times. other than that over all food is good, cool indoor and outdoor sitting. Small store next to it, always can do shopping right after dinner or lunch.

So so so good. I've been determined to find really good hummus come hell or high water but up until my visit here my efforts had fallen flat. Found this place on Yelp and thought I'd give it a try. Over the moon that I did. It's located in that weird area of John's Creek/Alpharetta behind the Taco Bell and there's a Persian Market next door. Very nice interior. I really was only there for hummus but I saw that they had a trio of dips that included baba ghanoush and a yogurt dip for only $3 more so I went with that. Hummus is out of this world with the crispiest most delicious chickpeas on top. Baba ganoush is smoky and tart with lovely pomegranate seeds. The yogurt dip is also wonderful and creamy. The naan that comes with it is non traditional and manages to strike the perfect balance between chewy and crispy. So good. They also included a small side with olives, cucumber and, I kid you not, some of the best feta I've ever tasted. I can't wait to return.

This place was a surprise to me- a Mediterranean spot but it was actually very good. I'll admit I'm picky! I wish they weren't so stingy with the free bread before the meal, but the food was great and a good sized portion. I had some cucumber spritzer drink and it was so incredibly refreshing! I had the Koobideh and really liked it. This place isn't on my top 3, but I'd still highly recommend and great to bring the family. We also had the kunafa cheesecake- great concept, yummy and not overly sweet.

Fantastic find in an out-of-the-way place. I bought saffron and poppyseed cookies that were lovely. The cardamom scented baklava was also delicious. I would recommend not eating it straight out of the fridge.

Had a business lunch meeting at Persian Basket. What a great find! Hummus was great, chicken barg and beef barg were terrific. Also loved the saffron ice cream. Service was excellent.

I came here with my family for Mother's Day dinner and this place was PHENOMENAL! My parents had been here before for anniversary dinners and I was so excited to finally try it (and it lived up to the hype!) It's easy to find and there's plenty of parking in its little tucked away lot. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating as well. Once we were seated, we started with some drinks. I had the Persian Rose which was a great gin and bubbles drink which interesting flavors of rose + saffron. For appetizers, we had the mirza ghasemi (one of the best things on the menu! I usually am not an eggplant person due to texture, but this is fabulous!) as well as the hummus (so delicious and fresh, it comes with a great soft pita). For entrees, we had the lamb shank, Shishkebob, as well as a few other chicken kebobs. Everything was so delicious and flavorful! The lamb shank was my favorite. The meat fell right off the bone and the stew was fantastic. I also loved the fava bean and dill rice it came with. Every dish came with fluffy rice in GENEROUS portions. Overall, HIGHLY recommend Persian Basket for a really wonderful meal.

Stumbled upon this place when i was in the area. They are busy and highly recommend to make reservations if you are planning on a weekend dinner. They have limited bar seating, dine in and patio ! The inside seating is very neat with wall murals. We got seated (walk in) within 10mins on a busy weekend. Tried the Egg plant dip, chicken and beef kabobs. All of our food was fantastic. Highly recommend the egg plant dip (comes with saffron butter - delicious). The drinks were fine. Not something i would order here. Decent service. Plenty of parking. The restaurant also shares space with persian grocery store. Check them out! They have decent collection of persian spices and some other arts/crafty items.

During three lunch time it seemed empty but slowly people were coming in. Decor was nice and the staff were friendly. I celebrated my birthday with co workers and the manager was kind to provide shots and ice cream. The lamb chops were delicious. My coworkers had lamb shanks, lamb chops and trout and each of them enjoyed their food. We will be back soon.

I was introduced to Iranian food by a friend and I just keep loving it the more I explore. And Persian basket was the best find in the new city and it just took the love to the next level. The flavorful dishes are just yum. You have to have the Iranian tea to pair with the starters. The plates were having big portions which are filling for 2 people. Ambiance is nice and service is good too.

Excellent food and great portions! The chicken kabob was fresh and juicy. Trent was our server and he provided excellent service. The desserts are delicious, especially the baklava cheesecake!

Really great service! The owner really takes care of all his guests! I look forward to our next visit.

First time here, and I tried couples of the menu items. As many other persian restaurants we received sabzi and bread platter while waiting to order. It is a great way to start a meal. I tried Ash reshte, which was a big bowl of joy. Very refreshing and packed with flavor. Then I had kabab koobide, which was also delicious. However, my only complaint was that the plates were big and cold, which made the food turn cold so quickly. We also had salmo and barberry rice. It was on point. The service was fast, and our server was respectful. Overall, it was a great experience.

This is a local gem ! During my recent visit to ATL, I walked to this restaurant which was an easy find because of previous yelpers (thank you ). Ambiance: I elected to seat outside to enjoy some vitamin D. They have seating and umbrellas for shade which was the perfect space for me to enjoy my lunch. I was greeted promptly when I entered the restaurant and was directed outside. Service: My waitress was very pleasant and provided recommendations from the menu. She checked in with me several times during my dinning experience. Food: My favorite part of my experience was the FREE appetizer platter. That was a pleasant surprise and oh SO Delicious! The bread was the best, the cheese, veggies were fresh and yummy. My hunger actually subsided after that and I was surprise I could even eat the salmon plate but I did (forgot to take a picture until the end). The salmon was flavored, flaky, and went very well with the rice. I am not sure what the yellow garnish was but it was good too. I substituted the pasta for rice which I guess eliminates the veggies from the meal. I still very much enjoyed my meal. Overall a very positive experience and I'll be back. PS: Check out what my check came in? How cute is this box!

Really great middle eastern cuisine experience in John's creek area. Beautiful decor. Plenty of parking. Great service and recommendations from our waiter. Very big portions: can definitely share 1 dinner entree with 2 people. All meats were very tender and flavorful. I had koobideh Kabani and it was great! Have a small market next door where you can buy spices, fresh bread, and home made Persian desserts. Really great service and great experience. Food came out quickly and tasted wonderful!

fantastic food service and atmosphere. highly recommended. The owner introduced himself and gave us tips on what to order and pair together.

Faric was our server and he was wonderful. Gave a great explanation of the menu and made good recommendations. The food was flavorful and well prepared.

What a delightful restaurant! Friend and I met for lunch at noon on a weekend. Plenty of parking is available. Only one other party was there when we arrived. Decor is nice and there's plenty of space between tables. I ordered the Slow Cooked Lamb Shank. A nice appetizer plate was first served. And the meal came out relatively quickly. The lamb shank was the biggest I've ever eaten, there was no way I could finish it. The flavor of the lamb and rice was very good. Service was attentive and cordial. Overall, a nice upscale restaurant with excellent food.

Love the service here! And ambiance is a nice casual, or a casual "nice"? Some of the other Persian food options in the johns creek/Alpharetta area can get really expensive/overpriced so I appreciate the sensible atmosphere and prices here! The shrimp appetizer in the saffron sauce was the favorite of all the dishes. I need to learn how to re-create that sauce - SO GOOD!! The same saffron sauce was in the fish dish we good - that was wonderful too. The eggplant sabzi appetizer (blanking on the name) and fresh bread were so so good too - could keeping eating the eggplant. We also got the chicken kebab and lamb stew - those were made well. The stew was hearty/healthy. We finished the meal with a dessert that was recommended by the house - unsure of the name but it was some kind of dry, crispy noodle with ricotta or another cheese in the center, and a dollop of ice cream on the top. I thought this dessert was a tad disappointing bc I was expecting a greater ratio of ice cream and it was too dry/boring for me. I think if they modify the ratio this dish would be a lot more interesting!! Will definitely be back to try more things

First time trying Persian Basket and it was a very pleasant experience. We had a 7pm reservation for two and we were quickly seated. The ambiance is on the casual side and venue is on the smaller side compared to Rumi's Kitchen. I ordered the Koobideh dish and my friend ordered the lamb chops. Everything we ordered was delicious but the lamb chops were our favorite. It was definitely worth the price!

My family and I had an amazing dinner. We had a wonderful time. The food was some of the best I have ever had. Everyone working is very kind and generous. The Goat Cheese was my favorite dish of the night. All of the appetizers are absolutely amazing. My family got a big plate to share and it was so delicious. 10/10 would recommend!

My friend and I had a delicious dinner and wonderful experience here for dinner last evening! Farid provided wonderful service, and the food was outstanding. We shared the goat cheese and hummus appetizers. The spiced apples with the goat cheese made that appetizer special. The hummus had a garnish of yummy, crispy fried chickpeas and a hint of salt that made it one of the best I've ever had! My chicken kebab and saffron rice with barberry's was also outstanding. I don't know that I've ever had rice so light and fluffy. This is a new favorite restaurant, for sure. I look forward to going back when their market is open!

I ordered different kind of food a few times in last months, they were very delicious, totally Great,I was recommending them to my friends and relatives. Unfortunately, yesterday March 20, 2024, I ordered Soltani and Jojeh kebab, they were Terrible, Jojeh kebabs all were burnt Black, I throw them in the trash bin, They put the kebabs on the rice that made the rice black with lots of Oil, We couldn't eat the oily black rice, No taste, the kebabs were not what I previously ordered. I Hope they refund me as none of their food were eatable. I was very Glad that i found a restaurant that is cooking real tasteful persian foods, it seems they failed.

We tried almost all Mazza options. They were good but nothing extraordinary. Duck leg was unique. Never had duck at a Persian restaurant. Main course.... Completely different league....Both chicken and beef dishes were amazing. Fresh and bursting with flavors. And the desserts ..... just wow.....especially the cardamom ice cream and cheesecake Service - 4/5 Food - 4/5 Ambience - 4/5

It is not an understatement when I say this restaurant is AMAZING. I celebrated my birthday here on 02/06/24. It was a surprise dinner that my friends and family surprised me with and thanks to Farid and Keegan, they made my birthday an experience I will never forget. Not only were the staff super accommodating and helpful they were super kind and genuine. The food was great, the drinks were even better and that alone makes me eager to come back!! Farid and Keegan really set the tone that this restaurant genuinely cares about the people who walk through their doors. They even set up my birthday cake and served everyone a slice. The night we spent here is full of fond memories and I can't wait to come back! Please if you are in the area definitely check out Persian Basket Kitchen and Bar you will not regret it. Thank you Farid and Keegan for a wonderful night!

We went back for our 2nd time, to have an early dinner on Sunday 01/28/2024 with my wife and another family member. We were greeted warmly by the host. Our server was Luke, who was very polite, attentive, and on point. And as for the food; "JUST GREAT" (Very Flavorful, plentiful, and Delicious). The Resturant is managed by Fareed, who is very attentive, professional, and kind. Definitely recommend this restaurant to all who like Persian food with Good flavor, and fair price.

What an amazing find! Tucked away from the busy roads, this restaurant offers fresh, delicious foods-everything from hummus to pomegranate cheesecake (YES! Highly recommend). The staff is attentive and helpful.

Made a last minute reservation on open table. We arrived late but was still accommodated. Pretty inside/out. Very attentive servers. Full bar and very pretty decor. Food was delicious. Will definitely go back!

We were looking for a new Persian/Mediterranean place to try in the area, and Google lead us to the Persian Basket. What a find! A bit off the beaten path, but totally worth it! Amazing food, attentive and friendly staff, and lovely atmosphere. It is on the smaller size, so definitely plan to make a reservation on the weekend if you can. If not, the bar is a fun place to eat :).

First time visit yesterday. My husband and I loved everything about it. The building, decor, service, and the food presentation, taste and value. The market next door was a treat as well.

I was craving kabobs and found this place down the street on Yelp! I made a reservation for 4 on a Friday online and it was easy and they send confirmation and reminders via texts. The restaurant has ample parking out front. We were greeted right away when we walked in and we were directed to our seats right away. The decor is nice and our server was great! We ordered the trio tapas for app and the hummus, baba ganoosh and shallot yogurt were all excellent. I especially like the bread plate that accompanies it. It also have nuts, cheese and olives. For entrees, we got the vegetarian rice cake, the lamb shank, saffron chicken and beef stroganoff to share. Everything was excellent and full of flavor. The Persian rice cake is crispy and packed with ingredients and the paired salad was refreshing. The lamb shank was tender. The chicken was delicious and even the beef stroganoff was wonderful. FYI, beef was on top of a bed of fries. We got pomegranate coffee cake and saffron cardamon ice cream for dessert and they were the perfect finish for the meal. The pomegranate flavor was subtle, but the cake was moist and the ice cream was creamy and very unique. I also got the lavender kiss (gin based) and it was tasty. We enjoyed everything about this place and the service was excellent. We will visit the market right next to here soon!
