Delicious!
Entrees were reasonably sized and priced at $14.95. Quality excellent.
I had the morasa polo which is described as
"jewelled rice - slivers of seville orange peel, almond and pistachio with diced carrots and barberries blended in saffron basmati rice served with a braised lamb shank "
The rice was simply amazing ... I am still thinking about it now.
My husband ordered the adas polo - "lentils, dates and sultana raisins blended into a saffron basmati rice topped with crispy onion with barberries"
I had a bite of his and definitely liked mine a lot better. His rice had an overwhelmingly onion-y taste. He loved his rice but admitted there were too many raisins. The only complaint I can think of with my dish was that I wish the portion was bigger ... but now I am just being greedy.
Ordered two appetizers as well - the dolmeh - rice wrapped in grape leaves and the vegetarian caviar. Both were pretty good but kind of pricey for the amount served.
The pomegranate juice is "meh" and overpriced. I think the POM juice is A LOT better.
You need to make reservations at this place. We were almost turned away even though we arrived at the restaurant at 5:30 - and the restaurant opens at 5:00.
Great place for a date - very cozy and intimate. Not really appropriate for kids ... whoops :(
