Yas Restaurant

Me and my boyfriend love this place, it is our go to place for Persian food. The ambience is very homey, it feels almost as if you are at family, as the service is also amazing. The staff and owner here are super friendly and helpful when it comes to trying new things on the menu.Our go to order is usually Koobideh, Tahdeeg, Fesenjan, and for desert the Makhloot is to DIE FOR. I personally dream about Makhloot daily (I am not joking its that amazing)

12/31/24The food at Yas is always amazing and delicious. I haven't ordered in a while until tonight. I made a huge mistake when I placed my order & didn't realize I was ordering a vegetarian dish. On my 2nd trip to the restaurant they pointed out I ordered the vegetarian albaloo polo. I was upset and annoyed, embarrassed by my behavior. They corrected the mistake, and added the chicken for no extra charge. It was so delicious as always and a perfect combination of flavors. Thank you again.

First time in Yas and the food didn't disappoint . We got Barg and Mahicheh both very tasty and well prepared, served in good portions also. Both waitresses were very kind and attentive. However,just like every other Persian restaurant in Bay Area, Yas is over priced. The one disappointing part was the bread and butter. It is customary in Persian restaurants to serve bread, feta cheese and herbs before they take your order. Yas served bread and butter. Bread was not fresh and butter just doesn't do the justice.

We had a very juicy koobideh here. The shish kabob was also delicious but smaller than expected. Ash reshteh was more like a bean soup and less like what you'd expect from ash.The service was just a bit slow for the three or four tables they were serving then. We enjoyed the overall ambiance and liked the friendly staff. We will certainly go back.

We've come back to Yas multiple times since our first visit, and they are always excellent!Staff are so wonderful and friendly, they always greet us warmly and have recognized us when we come in. Takeout out is just as good as dine-in, and we always have leftovers from their entrees. Such a perfect weeknight dinner for flavorful dishes that leave you full but never feeling bad. So good!

I Love their food, but this was our first time ordering two catering trays. Walked in asking for a same day order -- family order of koobideh and a family order of chicken. The order was ready for pick up within an hour. The food was delicious and my family enjoyed it so much, that there was barely any leftovers. Thank you for the comfort of your wonderful food. We will be back to visit and order catering again soon.

Highlights:&This is our go-to Persian restaurant and we will be back&Good size portions (takeout)&Chicken koobidieh is our favorite & Consistent pricing on websiteFood:*Beef and lamb koobidieh (to go special #5)*Two a la care chicken koobidieh skewers Our favorite is the chicken koobidieh, so we probably should have ordered a to-go special with more chicken. That being said, we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions -- for both menu items but mostly the to-go special. There was a lot of meat and even more rice.Pricing:The prices on their website are the same as if you call in. I ended up calling in and noticed the price is the same as the website (not that ppl call anymore but the pricing is consistent). Doordash is higher (of course).Overall:This was a go-to restaurant for us before/during and after the pandemic. If you see the online menus the wraps are spelled "rap". Pretty sure the servers don't bust a rhyme, but I like to imagine what the Chicken Thigh Rap would sound like.Notes to self: Get the to-go special with three chicken and three beef/lamb skewers next time.

One of the best places you could eat at. The food is amazing, service is excellent, restaurant is always clean and looking super fancy. They have full bar and the restaurant can be reserved for events. Would recommend this Persian restaurant 100/100.

Came for dinner around 730PM on a Thursday. About 1/4 of the restaurant tables were occupied when we arrived, and never got super busy for the 3 hrs we were there.I believe the wait staff was trying to be polite and not interrupt our conversation but I had to get her attention to order, and get a to-go box and the check.Food was good but entrees seemed to take a while, ~20+ min? Overall pretty good except the music, and especially the happy birthday music (there were 3 that night) was SO loud. It was challenging to hear someone talking sitting right across from me.

I have been here a several times and the food is always very good. The waitres was very nice and helpful when we went last. The food here is so delicious Specially kabab koobideh.the restaurant's warm lighting created a cozy ambiance.We will definitely be coming back again. We love it there.
