    Zeitoun pomegranate walnut appy is great! Also the Fesengan with chicken is delicious. Both have a sour kick to them :)

    You'll leave feeling like you had a warm cooked meal with old friends. Try the Malala Polo, jewelled rice w/ braised lamb shank. Fantastic!

    Good food and decent prices but I felt the waitresses were not very warm which was strange as middle eastern restaurants usually have a very warm and welcoming vibe.

    The stews were very delicious but they use the cheap basmati rice with the fake (turmeric? ) saffron.If you need persian food this a good place but improvements can be made.

    A fairly traditional Persian (read: Iranian) cuisine spot that stands out, even on the competitive College St. restaurant strip.

    Porciones bastantes generosas y los precios razonables. Pidan el takht que es una mesa especial en la parte trasera. Consta de una alfombra y cojines súper confortable, te hace sentir en Iran. Love it
