My first time in here, I was passing by and I tried there koobideh the beef and chicken with rice It was really good and fresh. Highly recommended read more

Hands down my favorite spot in the south bay!! The portions are easily enough for two people, but honestly I could finish the whole thing myself...I'm not even a leftovers person, but I actually dream about eating my Aria's the next day, it's that good lol. I used to always get Lebanese food when I worked in Hollywood, and after I left I couldn't find anything in the South Bay that compared. Then I tried Aria's. I know it's not Lebanese, but it definitely hits that same craving for really good middle eastern food. Don't overthink it...just order from Aria's. You won't be disappointed. 100/10 recommend!!!! read more

Well GDang! I have been craving some Mediterranean and have been kinda disappointed by some of the local South Bay offerings. I've tried a handful of places, some in Gardena, Torrance, Redondo... I used to always go to Panini Grill in the OC or Irvine Grill. As I finished ordering the beef soltani, a lady with her daughter were picking up a take out order. I decided to go wait in my car since it's cook to order which was about 20 minutes. I held the door for them on the way out and she tells me, "this is the best Mediterranean in the South Bay." Lady, YOU DID NOT LIE! Serving size for price is good. If not eating like I was starving, it was probably enough for three servings. The meat was so tender,not needing a knife to slice. The cashier and server were super nice as well. This is going to be my go to for sure! read more

Came here on a whim after my girlfriend wouldn't stop talking about this place, and honestly? She was right. Got the comb platter for me and my girlfriend and we were not disappointed. The beef was literally melting in our mouths -- like you could tell it had been cooking low and slow, no chewiness whatsoever. And the rice?? Fluffy, perfectly seasoned, not mushy at all which is honestly hard to find. read more

A top notch restaurant. It deserves 10 stars. This is not our first time here. But we were able to enjoy an excellent dinner at Aria's. The Mast O Khiar and pita bread never disappoint. The kabob was grilled to perfection, the rice was superb, and the butter was delicious. Our server was the best ever and took great care of us. Even celebrated our birthday with ice cream complete with candles and background music. We felt elated. Thank you Aria's! We will be back! read more

This cute restaurant is located in a busy plaza and a bit hidden but its very cozy and clean inside. As I walked in to order my meal I couldn't help but look at all the diners' food and they all looked delicious. Their menu has a variety to choose from, many options! I ordered the chicken and beef koobideh. The portion is quite massive. It came with a pack of pita bread but no hummus or anything to dip the pita bread in. Having pita without hummus or a dip is a bit odd but next time ill order a side of hummus, no biggie. I also like how they provide a quarter of a raw onion because I love onion. I will definitely come back and try more dishes. Thank you Aria! read more

This place is the real deal best persian kabob spot in the south bay. Forget about other places that are not even authentic Persian kabob places, they are usually greek or indian style kabobs with herbs and different additives. Persian style is the best because the meat itself is the star of the show, juicy and flavorful. I got the beef and chicken koobideh which was spectacular! Both juicy, fresh and flavorful. The basmati rice is fluffy. The tomato is roasted perfection. It all melds together into a symphony of bliss. Its high restaurant grade quality. The place is clean and the staff is extremely friendly. Will be back here for my kabob fix every time! read more

The best Mediterranean food in town, everything is delicious and freshly made. This is a family owned business, the real deal. Not only is dine in and take out good, my friends and I have ordered their food for a couple of parties and it was a hit! Portions are generous and the food is high quality. I love the chicken tender kabob. My friends love the Cornish game hen and chicken koobideh. The meals come with rice and a roasted tomato and onion. The owners are friendly and accommodating to dietary restrictions. read more

Tried catering for Easter from Aria's grill. Customer service was top tier. My husband went to go pick up the food and we saw we were missing a stew. I called and they were able to quickly make up for it and then some. Will definitely come back again. Also, when I called they told me everything on the menu is gluten free, obviously except the pita bread, so that makes it even more of a plus read more

My friends told me that I need to try this place and boy they were right. I love the food service was great and very clean Will definitely come back . read more

I was in a search for a good Persian spot in the South Bay for so long, and spotted this place while driving and knew I had to try it. A few days after spotting the place me and my friend decided to try it out. Everything was absolutely amazing, delicious & authentic! The portions were amazingly sized and lots to pick from! The place was clean and had lots of seats to dine in, service was really friendly. Always smiling and checking in on us! Overall 11/10 !! Definitely will be my new spot for Persian food! read more

Aria's Grill - Maast-o-Khiar Torshi Beef and Chicken Koobideh Chicken Koobideh - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Torrance, California

We tried Aria's Grill for the first time and really enjoyed it! It's a small Persian spot in the Harbor Gateway area, not far from Torrance. It's in a busy little strip mall where most of the parking is limited to 30 minutes, so just a heads up. The lady working there--she was both the hostess and our server--was super friendly, welcoming, and really made us feel at home. We started with the Tahdig (crispy rice) and Maast-o-Khiar (yogurt with cucumbers), and both were really good. For mains, we had the Cornish chicken with basmati rice and grilled tomatoes. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right--we loved it! We also ordered the grilled lamb chops and beef shish kabob, and we specifically asked for both to be cooked medium rare. We even said if that wasn't possible, we'd order something else. The lamb chops came out perfect--tender, well-seasoned, and cooked just how we asked. But the beef kabob was more medium well. To her credit, our server was super apologetic. She told us she had communicated our request but figured the kitchen may have gotten busy and overcooked it. She offered to take it off the check and invited us back to try again--which we really appreciated. Even with that small hiccup, everything we tried was delicious, and the service was great. We'll definitely be back to try more! read more

It's been a long while since I've had this feeling comparable to dining in someone's home and being blessed with authentic hospitality. (Oddly enough, those were feelings I sometimes had when dining in the restaurant that was formerly at this location. Rest in peace, dear Chef Lemuel.) The server at Aria is kind and welcoming. I don't recall her saying her name but, I would remember her in a future visit. Aria's Grill is a new Persian restaurant located in the Victory Center which is a very busy strip mall of various eateries. On a Thursday evening, we found a parking spot by El Pollo Loco. From looking at the menu, the entrees looked amazing. Our server answered our questions about the menu items. I chose the chicken tender kabob that came with the grilled tomato and basmati rice. The hubby got the filet mignon kabob and ground beef kabob with the rice and tomato. We tried each other's plate and wow! So fresh and flavorful! The tomato sauce was also nice. We asked about dessert menu and were verbally given the options of baklava or saffron ice cream. We passed on both but may try the ice cream another time. With the amazing and delicious Persian food and warm hospitality, I had the vibe as if I was dining in someone's home. 5 stars! read more

A great place for healthy, hearty halal food! Aria's grillls offers authentic flavor packed Persian cuisines! Prices may seen a bit expensive at first but once your plate arrives, you will understand why! With plates ranging mostly in the $15-20, you'll get a meal for THREE. The portion sizes are so bi, it really can feed a good amount of people depending on who's eating. I had the beef Koobideh and the beat was juicy in flavor in your mouth that no sauce was required. The rice was cooked to perfection, and the grilled veggies were perfectly salted enough to where it wasn't unhealthy but still tasting very great without adding too much. The service is phenomenal and very impressive! I spoke with the employees there and it's actually just the owners working as of right now. They just opened and the owner said they never had the chance to figure out hiring people yet so they been working day and night since opening. Yet while I was there I still recieved great service. The ambiance brings a more traditional look with a nice mural of persian culture across the wall. They have nice modern day Persian music that was nice to experience new genres of music. I will definitely be coming back! Such a great spot if you are trying to watch your health! read more

Just found this place on yelp, and i'm so glad i did! The food is soooo good. From the pita bread + butter, the koobideh and chicken thigh, to the baghali polo, everything was soo good. The koobideh and chicken thigh is so juicy, everything was cooked to perfection. The service was really good, the servers were all nice and kept asking us if we need anything else. They even gave us more pita breads. :) the inside is small but clean. Would definitely come back again! read more

Staff was very accommodating and friendly when we arrived. Since it was our first visit, it took us a while to peruse the menu. It was nearly 1:00 PM, so was very crowded. They were also swamped with delivery orders. It took a bit of time before our food was ready, so the owner brought us extra pita bread and also Kashk-e-Bademjan on the house. We got one beef shish kabob plate and one beef barg plate. We ate half our plates and packed the second half to take home. We ordered one baklava to go and left very full. read more

We came here for a Saturday lunch on a whim and were so happy with our experience. The restaurant was small and clean, but there were plenty of places to sit. The waitstaff was kind, prompt, and personable. I was very impressed with the food: The rice was delicious and flavorful, the meat well seasoned and tender, and it came with a house-made tomato sauce that I really enjoyed. I also had a Persian drink and found it to be very refreshing and different. We finished off the meal with a delightfully sweet dessert that I am still thinking about. I will certainly return when I have the chance. read more

So, I've been jonesing for Persian food since my go-to place (Seaside Palace) went out of business. Tried several places and they just haven't worked out. That is.... until today. Aria's Grill takes over the space of a Filipino Restaurant named Silog. They added a Persian mural, and it pretty much looks the same. This place has been in business since March 2025 per our server/owner. The server/owner made you feel like you're a guest in his home. The menu was very close to Seaside Palace. How was the execution? Excellent. I ordered the beef and chicken koobideh, while the fam stuck with beef koobideh and the beef shish kebab. Mrs. Yelper and my two mini-Yelpers all gave thumbs up. The koobideh was reminiscent of Seaside Palace's. Both the beef and chicken were juicy with the right amount of char. The rice was perfect. We also ordered the tahdig with the ghormyeh. Excellent too. The prices were reasonable for the amount of food they give you. Bottom line, will I be back? Yes. This will be my go to place for dine-in and take out. I didn't take photos but the photos on the website are accurate. read more

Food was superb! Had the chicken and beef koobideh which was huge portions and very flavorful with decent prices. Also ordered their kashke bademjam which is an eggplant dip type dish that i love. Loved how the staff, the father and son, were super attentive and helpful excellent hospitality. The art on their wall had meaning and love which goes back to their roots and culture. I highly recommend if you are looking for good quality food and service read more

My first time here and it was an amazing experience! We ordered the Cucumber Number 2 (Basics) which came with two beef koobideh, plus two chicken koobideh and two boneless chicken tenders. We also got the Albaloo Polo (rice with cherries), and it was delicious. Huge shoutout to our waitress Lea -- thank you for guiding us through the menu and making our first visit outstanding. We'll definitely be back! read more

Have picked up take out three times. Service seems friendly and pick up is always ready on time. Got the lunch special boneless chicken thigh. Chicken was juicy and flavorful. There was a lot of rice. 2nd time got their beef soltani (barg +koobideh) from their recommendation and the regular chicken thigh item. Preferred the flavor of the chicken than the beef. The amount of meat seemed to be about the same between the lunch special and regular chicken but with more rice. Felt like the food was better the first time or maybe I was just hungry. read more

Best nerdish food I had in a long time and such a friendly staff. Such a great atmosphere. Thanks a lot, I be back soon. read more

My wife and I love koobideh so this place was a must try for us. It's a solid spot with generous portions. Each plate was enough for two meals with rice leftover! We got the small tub of the cucumber yogurt sauce, and that was the perfect complement to the meal. The only con was the koobideh was a bit under seasoned in my opinion, but we'll have to try again to confirm. read more

Everything went well (as usual)! When Chicken Chick (CC) closed down, we were so heart broken not finding another Persian restaurant to go to in South Bay. We went to different places but the CC standards were our gauge and no place came close. Until Aria's Grill .... I have nothing but good words to describe my every visit. Their dishes, the service, and character of this place is just Pure Love if you ask me. read more

I've been wanting to try Persian food and when I heard this restaurant opened in town, I figured this was my opportunity. I went for takeout and ordered ghormeh sabzi with rice and baklava.

Okay I'm from Detroit, so I'm a tough audience with this cuisine. I only had one meal that I thought was as good as Detroit in countless tries and other restaurants but today I found a second. Aria has fantastic food, I mean seriously amazing, great service, good people with good hearts and their prices are more than reasonable. I'm kind of shocked to say I think I found our place for this cuisine. And it's right here in Torrance which is even better. I hope you all like it as much as we did read more

New Persian restaurant in Torrance - let's go. I got the Ash-e-Reshteh and the Chicken Barg. The soup was nice and hearty. The chicken was moist and flavorful. Service was very friendly. For the meal, there's an option of half rice/half salad vs all rice. The red sauce included with the meal is a butter sauce made of butter, tomatoes and sumac. Definitely will be bak to try their Chicken Koobideh. read more

Finally! A authentic persian restaurant in the southbay. I grew up going to seaside palace but they fell off over the years and now they are closed. Ive tried literally every "persian" place in the southbay. I've been hearing good things about this place so i decided to give it a go, and boy im glad i did! This is the first one that reminds me of my grandmas cooking. I got the chicken soltani which ill give a solid 8.7 . The koobideh had more flavor than the barg but they were both cooked perfectly. Nice and juicy. Being able to do half and half of the specialty rices even when you order on Uber Eats is amazing. The baghali polo is phenomenal 9.2 and the loobia is a 9.1. Most places put way too much cinnamon when its supposed to be a savory dish. This loobia polo is near perfect. Mastokhiar was good as well! Happy to have an authentic persian joint around. Going to try the beef koobideh and barg next. Dastet dard nakone read more
