Small Mediterranean and Persian restaurant in the Juanita Beach area of Kirkland. Went on a weeknight and the place wasn't busy, but a few other groups showed up after us. Warm decor. Small two page menu with the usual items you'd expect.I got the soltani kabob platter for $30. It is flank steak kabob and a beef koobedish kabob served with basmati + yellow rice and a grilled tomato. Portion is quite big and two meals worth of food for me, with plenty of meat and rice. Really liked the steak kabob, and the koobideh, rice, tomato were good too. Food came out in reasonable time. Also had their ice cream, which is saffron ice cream with rose water and pistachio. Haven't had Persian ice cream in a while, was good to taste that flavor again. Other than the flavors, their ice cream is pretty creamy. Overall, enjoyed the food.

Well, visiting family in town. Was looking for a bite to eat before we got to the house. Found Bella Balducci's on Yelp. Reviews seemed to be decent. First impression: dirty. Tables, floors, windows...all dirty. Second: they didn't have falafel. What the heck? Greek restaurant with no falafel (Bella's menu has a lot of falafel dishes so super surprised here). Third: the server was extremely nice. We had our dog Thor with us and sat outside. He was nice enough to bring Thor some water. Wow, since it was our first time, the waiter gave us some baklava- on the house. He was even kind enough to ask if we had any "nut allergy" first. So while I would appreciate a thorough cleaning, the food and service were fantastic.

Ambiance is OKAY.A few nice cultural pieces and paintings up on the wall. There wasn't anything aside from that with the ambiance. Might as well just order take out. Food was okay 3.5/5. He had better but this was okay. I don't know if I'd eat here again

Excellent food and great portions. We ordered the eggplant dish and the chicken gyro sandwich. Both were very flavoursome. The baklava hit the spot as well. This is not a fancy sit down restaurant so obviously you won't come here for date night. The prices are reasonable and the service is decent. They also accepted a coupon we presented without a fuss. Two thumbs up!

This tiny eatery located in an unassuming strip mall delivers big time on taste and great service! We had the grilled marinated chicken kabob ($20), the grilled marinated beef tenderloin kabob ($27) and a combo Vaziri of grilled marinated chicken and koobideh - a seasoned ground beef mixed with onions ($26). Each order came with a large portion of basmati rice sprinkled with yellow rice and a side of grilled bell peppers and/or grilled tomatoes. A great deal is the King's Choice ($43) that comes on a larger platter served with a chicken, Koobideh and flank steak kabob with two sides of rice and enough to feed three people. The staff was so nice as they forgot one of our orders and then comped it to us. We saw others with different dishes including the Greek fries and everything looked so yummy and will have to come back again for sure!
