Just reopened and it was pretty good!I'm Persian and been very down on Persian food in Westwood lately. Nothing is good. This place was pretty tasty. We ordered:Tahdig w eggplant stew and fesenjoon - tahdig as whatever but the stews were great. Tahdig is basically whatever everywhere except homemade so I'm not knocking them for this. Boneless chicken w zereshk polo - really good! Chicken was great, polo was great. Zereshk polo is my fave when I visit my parents so hard to impress me with this. Naderi Soltani - very good. The chengeh was delicious. Like homemade kabob on the grill. I didn't try the koobideh but wifey loved it so good enough for me. Hopefully they stay this way. Too many times restaurants start w a bang and become terrible as popularity increases.

Persian food is my favorite cuisine! I asked my Persian dentist for his favorite restaurant near Santa Monica, and he recommended this gem. It's newly renovated, and I was surprised to find no reviews on Yelp.The food was absolutely delicious! The space is bright, airy, and beautifully decorated with fresh flowers, creating an upscale atmosphere. The service is friendly, efficient and welcoming.My lunch started off with freshly baked bread and butter. The lentil soup, served with fresh lime, was both refreshing and satisfying.For the main course, I had the filet mignon. It was cooked medium-well to perfection--juicy, tender, and flavorful. It came with my favorite long-grain basmati rice infused with saffron, as well as grilled onions and tomatoes that complemented the dish perfectly.I will definitely be back--and especially when I'm in the mood for perfectly grilled meat. This place deserves to be on everyone's radar. I'll thank my dentist next time I see him.

Love this place! So happy to revisit after the renovation and glad to see they have kept the same quality of food/service. I highly recommend their barg and kashk bademjan.
