Herby is a family-owned Iranian restaurant with more than 20 years of experience in the food business. We have a liquor license and offer a selection of wine and beers to pair with Persian & Turkish food.

Herby’s ambiance is simple and restful, with a décor of Persian pottery and photos and music that softly fills the air. Ours is a place for romantic dinners, birthdays and family occasions. We also offer catering.

Food is deemed to be hot or cold in its effect on the metabolism, and Persian gastronomy looks for a balance between the two, in a way of thinking that’s comparable with the Chinese concept of yin and yang. Herby’s fare is based on the best fresh, organic, and preservative-free ingredients available, often imported directly from Tabriz.

Chef Javad is passionate about what he does, creating joy and laughter with friendly conversation with his customers, and making sure that they go home having been fully immersed in the beautiful Persian culture that he’s so proud of.

    We had the most wonderful experience at Herby a Taste of Tabriz! The interior is beautifully decorated, creating such a pleasant and inviting atmosphere. As for the food—OMG, it was absolutely delicious! The portions are generous, and the meats are perfectly cooked, fresh, and so flavorful. Every dish we had was packed with taste and made with top-quality ingredients. The service was spectacular, attentive, and friendly, making the whole experience even better. We will definitely be back!

    Great menu selection, nice decor and great service. Coming from an Iranian, the menu is authentic but the flavour and cooking of the food itself is not; it’s almost like someone who is trying to cook from a distant memory of what they saw their Persian family cook. It’s amazing they offer tahdig but it isn’t done well; not at all crispy; the kashkebadam joon was a bit strange; like they used green/sour eggplants that weren’t really roasted, not enough kashke. The restaurant has potential if it revamps their food

    Great last minute find. Food is reasonable and delish and they made a special plate for our daughter who is 4 and the chef even came out to see how she liked it!
