Went here with some friends and one of whom is Persian. The place was small some say cozy but I dont really go to a restaurant for the decor.
We got 2 appetizers the first was maast-o khiar which consists of yogurt, walnut, raisins and rose petals. I didn't really like because I am not a big yogurt fan but my friends liked it. The second appetizer was kashk-e bademjaan which is charred eggplant, persian whey, garlic and walnuts topped with crispy onion. I liked this one thought it did taste some what similar to bhabha ghanouj and an indian appetizer called aloo bangan. Both appetizers came with the light and fluffy babari bread which is the tradional persian bread.
The entree that I got was called fesenjaan chicken (a smooth rich stew of ground walnut and pomegranate syrup served beside a plate of saffron basmati rice). The dish reminded me of some type of indian dish due to the fact that the sauce was very thick and oily. Nonetheless it was very tasty the pomegranate syrup really added to the balance of the dish as it gave it some sourness
Overall I would recommend this place but don't expect to be taken in a new food experience. However my Persian friend was impressed with the food as it was quite similar to the food they eat back home.
Food - 3/5
Recommendations - Fesenjaan or baqali polo
