When I questioned them this charge not being disclosed anywhere in the restaurant or on the menu, they said this was a standard practice which the owner has been doing for many years and also applied at all other coffee shops and everywhere else -- and all their customers knew about it. We eat out very often and specially dined here several times already. This was the first time I saw this charge and I found their explanation not justifiable. The service charge plus tip added up to almost 30% on top of the meal cost. On another hand, the server got our order wrong on both two items and never checked in on us. The restroom's light was out and the toilet was not flushable. The food was good though. It's sad that we would have to find a new place to eat the same dishes now.

Sunday family dinners are usually Middle Eastern kabobs. Last visit was with seven family members…read more Nice to get a plate filled with kabobs, chicken, lamb or salmon, served with basmati rice and grilled vegetables. We usually substitute the rice for Persian salad. Diced cucumbers, tomatoes and red onions with a Persian dressing. My favorite. For something different, try the fesenjan. Chicken served with a pomegranate, walnut and saffron stew served with basmati rice. So tangy and sweet. Love this one! Add some hummus, whipped feta or warm eggplant dip while you wait for dinner. Parking is easy. Make a reservation for a weekend dinner or lunch.

My girlfriend and I were looking for something a bit different in the area and decided to have our…read morefirst try on Persian food at Kasra. I must say I have to echo her review, as we were blown away by the flavors. The restaurant was packed, and the decor was fancy but comfortable. One look at the interior and clientele already convinced me this place would be authentic. We opted to try 2 different combos, the Kasra and seafood combo, so we could share and try a bit of everything. It's hard to pick a favorite, all the proteins were flavorful and tender. The rice was a whole talking point just by itself. I often get bored with plain old white rice, so I'm glad Kasra seasons their rice well. The portions were very generous as well, they left me full after cleaning up that whole plate. This was an excellent introduction to Persian cuisine for me, we got lucky that we chose a place that would leave a great first impression!

The food is delicious each and every single time. Sorry to say that I have not tried much of the memory because I found a few things that I liked and just keep getting those again and again. The pulao is delicious, the lamb is so tender and the rice is so flavorful. You definitely have to put the chutney on top of the to taste how delicious it is... It seems spicy otherwise, but on top of the rice... It is the perfect compliment. The chapli kabobs are amazing. The mantoo is fantastic. Even the bournee is great- and that's coming from someone who barely even likes eggplant. The naan is best fresh-- it smells incredible. The texture is amazing and my mouth is watering, literally just thinking about it. I cannot recommend this place enough.

The only complaints I have are that it doesn't seem like there is enough staff in the front, although they were trying to catch up there are a lot of customers and just not enough to-go and server staff, also the menus, I tend to enjoy physical menus over QR but that is just a personal preference. Overall amazing food and great atmosphere

I guess the only problem with it is that some of the food trucks come and go, so if you fall in love with one particular truck or a couple of them, don't expect them to be around forever, because that may not be the case. These four examples were some amazing food trucks that don't seem to be here anymore. And it's sad that they're no longer in business.
