Food is absolutely delicious! Went to go pickup a catering order and it was teeming with folks - that's how you know this place is good! We ordered a few family combos and literally everything was absolutely perfect. The meat was succulent and juicy. Rice was perfect and fluffy and the sides were also just as appetizing. Definitely coming back often!

Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you - this small restaurant serves up fantastic food! While I've only experienced their takeout, the quality speaks for itself. It seems like a quiet spot, especially during the week, but I suspect they do a brisk takeout business. Their salmon lunch special is a steal - a generous portion of perfectly cooked, moist, and flavorful salmon, served with incredible basmati rice. You can choose between eggplant or hummus (I highly recommend the eggplant!), plus roasted vegetables with a delicious char. The meal also includes a side salad and two amazing sauces: a spicy green one and a cooling white one that complement each other perfectly. I can't wait to try more of their menu and definitely recommend this place.

Love this place. Solid food, great prices, attentive service. Is a staple place and has never failed us.

This place was absolutely fantastic and I cannot wait to go back. The food we had was exactly what I wanted, and there were so many interesting dishes to choose from on the menu. I had a delicious Israeli salad and split one of the chicken kebabs with my friend. It was ground chicken, which was perfectly cooked with the right amount of spices and very tasty rice to go along with it. We also had some baba ghanoush, which was flavorful and fresh, and we were delighted that they put free pita on our table when we sat down along with two delicious sauces. The prices were very fair for the amount of food we bought and we had plenty of leftovers. The food came out extremely fast and tasted fresh and delicious as everyone in our group loved their meals. There aren't too many places around like this restaurant so it's worth driving to taste the wonderful variety of Middle Eastern cuisine. They serve all the Middle Eastern classic dishes, but they also have some more unusual dishes, which makes the menu and options very exciting. The only downside is parking is a bit difficult for this restaurant, but I did find a spot on a side street which was a very quick walk. The staff was attentive and friendly and we left there being 100% satisfied.

Found this Persian and Mediterranean restaurant via a search of restaurants in Williston Park. I recall driving around and seeing so many places I haven't yet tried. Another hood worth exploring given I've found a few gems previously. I was here for lunch with a friend who loves Persian food as much as I do. She was the perfect dining buddy since we love lamb and Cornish Hen. We tried a little of everything - over ordered as planned (so we could take it to go) and to try more stuff on the menu. The wait staff was friendly and thought we were ordering for four! We said we just like to eat! I must say, the lunch specials were all great value priced meals (you gotta see the menu, I took a photo) but we couldn't resist the rest of the offerings instead. For appetizers: - The Combination plate of three "starters", our choices were the hummus (real smooth), baba ganoush (it was whipped nicely but I would have wanted more chunks of eggplant, this one was creamy not chunky) and the sambooseh (really good - these crispy turnovers are filled with vegetables and chickpeas). We enjoyed this platter with a warm basket of pita and yogurt sauce. There was a mint chutney served as well on the side. My friend liked it, I only sampled a little given I am a sucker for the yogurt sauce. - Tabuli salad, very light and refreshing. Had a hint of lemon, lots of tomatoes and parsley. There was only a little bulgar wheat, but it was nicely balanced with the red onions. Loved this. Since we were about to eat so much meat, this was a much needed "greens" to keep our plates balanced as well. Entrees - there was only one that stood out amongst the others, fair pricing, it was meant to be shared, good for 3-4 people indeed. We ordered the Combination plate. It had everything we wanted... barg, kobideh and joujeh. Served with a giant portion of basmati Rice (sumac provided on the side) and beautifully grilled tomatoes. This was really good. Met our expectations and only comment here, the Cornish Hen looked more like mini chicken pieces but still grilled nicely. A few sides were a little too charred but the meat was tender and juicy, that was most important. (We didn't finish obviously, saved half to go so we could save room for dessert)! Dessert time: - Persian Tea for her (smelled lovely), Turkish Coffee for me (looked like an espresso cup, it was delicious. My only comment here, at the bottom of the cup, I got my last sip with some ground bits. Not sure why but that was not a good last taste). - Faludeh, this was really pleasant. The creamy rice noodles were served in a dessert cup with Rose water. It was light and not over powering. The lemon syrup was on the side so you could adjust to your taste. And cherry syrup on the side as well...too bad no fresh cherries. That would have made the difference for the extra half star. - Zoolbia and Bamieh, that's what was on the menu but I think we just got the Zoolbia... It was fried dough dipped in honey and served with whipped cream. Not quite as pictured. But it was definitely sweet. And definitely freshly made. I was in sweetness overload. LOL. Overall, a lovely lunch. A solid spot for great food. Totally would recommend. Again, certain things could have been better so I can't give it a five star rating. But nevermind that, just enjoy the food and company you're with.

There's only street parking but it's so worth it parking elsewhere because the food is amazing! My personal favorites are the koobideh kebab (ground beef) and shish kebab (boneless chicken breast). The combination platter is enough to feed 4 people. The rice has a good flavor (not bland). The chicken and koobideh are very juicy and very flavorful! The lamb & barg are flavorful but a little tough. The pita breads are served hot and fresh with the white sauce. Oh yeah, it's also cash only so be prepared to bring cash.

The food and service were great. Their food was healthy and not too heavy. The ambiance was nice with a few families in there with us. I want to try more things on their menu!

This is a great Middle Eastern/Persian restaurant, lots of great healthy choices to choose from highly recommend this restaurant, but make sure to bring cash as they do not accept credit cards

A lovely gem in the new Hyde park area! I ordered the salmon kebab. It was extremely deliciously. The yogurt sauce was a great addition to the meal. I kept pouring the yogurt on the rice. The Persian tea is soothing to the tummy. I ordered it twice. The Persian ice cream is a must try! It had a slight rose water taste to it. The baklava is also a must try! Soft mini squares with a delicious amount of honey, you can taste.
