B	Ben Zhu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ate here a while back, got the lamb shank and the Cornish hen dinners. Great flavors, big portions, friendly owner. Went here when she first opened up and you can definitely feel the care that goes into the meals. 100% great people and great food. She struggled a bit on the day that she first opened her doors because the cook she hired no-showed but she managed under pressure to serve out delicious food. Highly recommend.
R	Raad Saadi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The food was amazing. It felt like real home-cooked persian food. Seriously one of the best persian meals I've ever had. The staff were also super friendly and took their time to explain everything we asked about. The place is relatively small but it feels very cozy. They also had comfy chairs and nice calm persian music. Definitely recommend and definitely coming back again.
H	Hamid on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Excellent food and service. We ordered Ash, pickled fruit, Vaziri and Fesenjan. They also offer free soup as started which reminded me of home. Fesenjan was super tasty will order it again for sure. The Ash was very delicious too, as authentic as it can be! All the personnel including the chef are Iranian ladies. The waitress was very welcoming and helpful. Strongly recommended.
F	Feiyan Gu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The restaurant is neat and clean. The owner and server were friendly and welcoming. I am very pleased with rice, mixed with barberries and saffron. The rice tasted soft and melting in the mouth with the herbal fragrance. The chicken was the highlight of the order, that was so well stewed and it was effortless to separate the mean from the bone. The barley soup was enriched because it’s made of chicken broth. I also drank the dough, which tasted natural and fresh. It also made the main not that heavy even though the main and the soup were oily. One star lost because of the parking.
M	Meg A on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Vegan Kebab!!! This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation. The atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. The food is really good, with some amazing vegan Persian dishes. Their vegan kobide kebab is to die for. ? IT WAS FIRE!! The service we received was so amazing and we will be back again. Shout out to the kitchen!!! You guys are rock!!
k	kiana Liu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Loved the service but the food is too expensive for the quality. I tried all the Persian food restaurants in metro Vancouver except this one, just because of the location being out of our way. Today my husband and I made time to go. From the beginning to end our server was amazing. I didn’t ask her name, she seemed to be new but she went above and beyond to make sure we are happy. She was super polite as well. We ordered vaziri and lamb shang and Ghormesabzi. The joojeh kabob was dry and koobideh was ok. Meat quality was good but texture and taste was ok. I had much better kebob for way cheaper. The lamb was tasty but the sauce was just too little for the dish, when I asked for more, kitchen sent this watery sauce that tasted like chicken like the diluted zereshkpolo with chicken juice not lamb shank sauce. We asked for some tahdig, they didn’t charge us for it but the tahdig was very bad. The Ghormesabzi was delicious. They cheap out on saffron big time. It was diluted and very little on top. The rice was ok not meeting my expectations at all at that price point. It might have been because of Covid and I understand businesses are barely making it. Overall won’t go back.
f	farzod darzi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This place is operated by a Persian mother daughter duo and you definitely can taste the love in their food. Very warm welcome with a complimentary bowl of barley soup. The kebobs were delicious, juicy mad tender. Would definitely go again.
P	Priyankka Biswas on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Absolutey wonderful cute little place to go if you love Persian food like us. The food is delicious & the quantity of the food is very good. We loved the outside patio space. The staff at this place are so nice and kind. We would definitely go back and would also recommend this place to others.
