   I’ll start by saying the food was amazing. My husband and I were out to enjoy a celebratory meal with my parents. Our order consisted of 2 very nice bottles of wine, 2 cocktails, 3 appetizers, 4 entrees, and 2 desserts. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our meal and experience, until… we closed out our tab - which was quite pricey given the order described - though that was to be expected. What tainted an otherwise perfect experience, was when the manager (I assume) addressed us by saying “I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the next party for this table has checked in.” He made us feel rushed to leave, and we were quite taken aback as we had just closed our tab just a few minutes prior, and still had half glasses of wine on the table which we were casually finishing. This was at 8:45pm and our reservation started at 6:45pm. Nowhere did our reservation list a seating time limit. So, while we thoroughly enjoyed 95% of our evening, this very poorly executed interaction at the conclusion of our meal essentially spoiled the overall experience and curbed our appetite for another visit.

   I’m pretty picky about Persian food, so trust me when I say this place was incredible. From the appetizers to the entrées and even dessert, everything was top-notch. Highly recommend!

   The food and service was outstanding! Our waiter was Julian. He went above and beyond to accommodate our group. Excellent service and the restaurant is just beautiful. We had a wonderful birthday celebration and had the most delicious platters. We will be coming back soon!

   The manager was great. The waiter who was young needs more training in serving wine. The food was exceptional as usual. I will recommend it without any reservations 🙂
