Food is always delicious! We usually go for dinner but we did lunch last week & more wonderful choices! The falafel wrap was delicious!

We were glad to discover this amazing place . The food is authentic and the service was amazing . The servers were super friendly and responsive . My son has an egg and nuts allergy and they were very accommodating for that . They double checked everything before serving , which we really appreciated . The decor of the restaurant is sort of a snap shot from a Persian restaurant from the 80s but that gives it a retro authentic look . Maybe playing Persian music would add to the environment even more . We order the Jojeih and barg kebab as well Fasenjoon.. Also ordered Humus and lentil soup . The kebabs and lentil soup were amazing ! The rest was decent , the humus could have been better . It's not Persian so that is fine I suppose . But all in all a pretty epic experience!

Absolutely delicious! Wonderful and uplifting setting with very friendly staff. We had a very big party and they were so nice and accommodating to everyone who came. I got the chicken tender kabab and it was delicious!

Good, but not amazing Persian food. As Dave L noted, it is a little unassuming spot which would be perfect for a causal meal. The lamb was a solid choice if you are seeking a recommendation. While I believe all dishes come with rice, only a few come with anything else. However, the portions are fair and will fill you up. Of course, if you aren't quite full there is always Baklava.

Recently went to Persian Grill with a large party to celebrate a graduation. The staff was very accommodating and courteous. The service was pristine and quick as well. The only disappointment was the food. We all grew up cooking and eating Persian food so our standards were not low. However, there are no other Persian restaurants in the area so if you're craving something similar to Persian cuisine, it can do the trick. We started with Kashke Bandamjan, sabzi paneer, salad Shirazi, maast o kheir, and khoresht tahdig. The khoresht tahdig was my favorite part of the meal. The ghymieh was solid and the tahdig was nice and crispy. The rest of the appetizers were good as well. For my entree, I tried the Zereshk polo with the Cornish hen, khoresht karafs with chicken, and the chicken tender kabobs. The zereshk polo and Cornish hen were extremely sweet to the point you couldn't eat too much of it. The khoresht karafs was more like a soup with an oil and water based broth. There were minimal greens and flavor. Lastly, the chicken tender kabobs were good and the plain basmati rice was fluffy and buttery. Again, not the best Persian food but it can do the job if you're craving it and there are no other options.

I had a great meal at the Persian Grill a couple of nights ago. Everything was fresh and delicious! I appreciated how large their menu was and all of the different meat options that I could choose from. I got a kebab combo with lamb and saffron spiced hen which were both super flavorful.

Was recommended by an Iranian man so wanted to check it out. Quiet, small, family owned place with pretty flowers and a pond in front. Inside pleasant and quiet. Delicious hummus, pita, and house salad appetizers. I had eggplant/tomato mush served with basmati rice and a skewer of nicely grilled veggies. Husband had very savory, rich lamb shank in gravy with rice imbedded with sweet raisins, nuts, and dates. Service excellent and staff very cordial. I would recommend the owner lower the lights and get rid of the paper place mats. Otherwise excellent meal.

We enjoyed a delicious early dinner at Persian Grill. I've been expanding my culinary palette and dining here was delightful. The menu has plenty of meat and vegetarian options. The hummus appetizer was smooth and flavorful. The crispy and chewy pitas were excellent! For the entree, I ordered the Khoresh Fesenjan, a stew that tastes nothing like it looks. A rich sauce of walnut and pomegranate gives it a sweetness that complements the chicken. The basmati rice is as fluffy as it gets- perfect! The baklava was interesting, more of a spice cake taste than others I've had (Turkish/Greek baklava tend to be more heavy, drenched in honey and sweet, which I love).The service was quick and pleasant and the portion size is very generous. Looking forward to coming again and trying something else.

Finally back after more than a year! This is one of those places you leave and are already thinking about when you will return. The food is so flavorful and consistently good. I love the ground lamb and ground beef. The spice mix and grilled flavor are memorable. Always friendly service. Beer and wine available. Can't wait to return...again
