I had no idea that the restaurant portion of this place would be a little rag-tag operation in the back of a market. But don't let looks deceive you - it really is not bad!
It didn't quite live up to my hopes based on all of the reviews, but what my wife and I had was good, if not rather expensive for what it was. I was truly disappointed in my barg, which despite being filet mignon was served in a razor-thin sheet of meat instead of delectable, three-dimensional bites. I honestly preferred the kibbedeh (ground beef) to the filet. The chicken soltani was decent but could've used more spice.
The shallot and yogurt dip was indistinguishable from standard sour cream, but the bread that came with it was pretty good - fluffy and a little buttery, with a good texture.
If you don't have a fountain and serve your pop in bottles, then Mexican Coke is a must, and they don't disappoint there either.
Service was a bit erratic, and some strange man - who I don't think worked at the restaurant or the market - came up to our table and offered us cookies. Stupidly, I accepted but luckily didn't die.
tl;dr I would go back but get something different.
