Persian Garden is an amazing gem of a restaurant in the Encanto/Phoenix College Neighborhood. I work near here so I have regularly dined here for lunch and dinner for years and have never been disappointed. When you come to dine here, it is like stepping into a traditional Persian home. They have both amazing service and a very welcoming quiet comfortable atmosphere, where you can actually hear your dinner companion and have a nice conversation. The owner often circles the restaurant many times to ensure his guests are doing ok and enjoying their meal. Now for the food - PG's cinnamon tea is absolutely amazing, I always wish I could take a gallon to go, just so good! The food is fresh and adventurous, vegan and vegetarian dishes abound. However, they also satisfy any meat eater as well with lamb, shawarma and chicken. My personal favorite is the Purple Shoots or the Merza with either Gyro or Dolmeh, and any of the pitas are also a good selection. Love this restaurant! Their hours are very limited Lunch=M-F 11:00 to 3:00 and for Dinner = Th-Sat 5-9, they are Closed on Sundays. Sometimes during heat of the AZ summer their hours are even more limited, so check before you go if June-August. An A+ and 5 Star restaurant in my opinion!
