I have been wanting to try this place for a long time and the reviews made it seem like it was an amazing place to go. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed by what I got from here. It's a cute, small place and they definitely get pretty busy during the lunch rush. Staff was nice and moved quickly to get everyone's orders in. I got their plate with a chicken kabob and lamb kabob. The veggies in my salad did not taste fresh, the rice had absolutely no flavor to it whatsoever, my lamb was very dry and bland, and my chicken was dry and half burnt. There is nothing I tried that I would get again. I probably wouldn't even come back if someone suggested coming here.

Incredible food at this unassuming but quality establishment. The only thing better than the food was the customer service! I highly recommend the lamb plate and the tiramisu!

This is by far the worst Persian food I've ever had. I wasn't expecting the portion size to be so small but for 15$ it's not too bad, especially with inflation. But the chicken and beef kabobs were so dry and hard to slice it didn't feel like I was eating food. The rice was also very hard and grainy. There were no side condiments given such as the herbs/onion that usually comes with Persian food or sumac to add to rice. I only ate the food because I was starving but unfortunately I didn't enjoy it at all. I'm Persian so I know my Persian food and this place is an embarrassment to Persian food. If you're compelled to come here because the price looks good, it's not worth it because the quality of the food is terrible.

Naseem's is located in Sorrento Valley across from Qualcomm in a little center with a few restaurants on Pacific Heights Blvd. We first discovered her food when I was pregnant with our son nearly 6 years ago and our doctor's office was located nearby. We live in Vista now, but the kebabs here are so worth the drive!Naseem and her little cafe will always be so special to our little family. She is such a warm, kind person and you can see how hard she is working and taste and feel the love she puts in to her food. Simple menu of kebab served with rice plates or in a wrap, and it's some of the best around town (don't need no fancy downtown $40 kebab when this is perfection!!) She serves tea and coffee, and if you're lucky to get your hands on them before they sell out, she makes amazing fresh baked cream puffs too! We'll have to show you guys next time if we can get there early enough!

Had missed Naseem and Naseem's for over a year because of COVID. Went back today for a wonderful reminder of how much I love and have missed this place.Had the lamb kabob plate, which comes with chilled salad, perfect rice, roasted tomato. All prepared perfectly for a wonderful lunch with one of her fine coffee's.Naseem is always present, makes everyone feel welcome, taken care of and special. I will be going every week now!

Amazing ambiance friendly employees and a very reasonable price range, the menu is limited but they have truly mastered what they offer, I highly recommend and hope you are just as impressed as I was.

Great food and service! I tried it a couple of times already and I was impressed. I tried the lamb, beef and chicken kabobs, all good!

Rather flavorless. The kabob plate was mostly a big pile of rice, a side of raw, plain salad, and some dry meat. The interior, while nice-looking, is far too cramped.

This is the worst persian food I ever had.This was supposed to be a very famous dish called ghorem sabzi (meet and fried vegetable)Of course, this was a vegetarian version, and I knew it did have a meatBut it is included in a cup of rice, a few spoon of pinto beans, and a few peaces of tofu, all for $18.These ingredient costs are less than a few dollars to make.The point is it was very tasteless, missing dry lemon and missing the main ingredient of lots fryed vegetables.It was atake out.Usually, don't write a bad review, but this was the worst.Hopefully owner's make changes before they go out of business
