The outdoor seating is simply gorgeous and has such a cozy feel to it. Love that there's free chai as well as sweetener offered in the restaurant. This place was so packed on a Sunday at 8 PM.

First of all Fabiola... what a wonderful experience you gave me as a first timer! Thank you for the…read moretop notch service. I came into the restaurant asking how long my order would take, she said 10 minutes. Although there were chairs and tables under an eave, I chose to go to the car. Faviola brought the food to me and it was sprinkling outside! She even came back and gave us extra utensils when she realized there were two of us. All the while smiling:) I ordered via yelp because we were starving and easily this restaurant has their menu in organized and visually appealing. Their descriptions and the variety of selections and customizations on point. My husband said he wasn't hungry but then saw the food and we scarfed it all down. He gave it 8.5 and said would come back. I ordered pickled vegetables which I thought was going to be onions but I think it's actually cabbage. Not my preference so I will take that home to the parents. Did order yogurt dip- husband was a fan. The chicken thigh and filet were so tender. I had put a note on the order for medium rare. I wouldn't call that medium rare but it was tender nonetheless. I'm sad I had to pay extra for a half of a Roma tomato, salad and lavash- the lavash I saw it in the add-ons menu so I assumed it wasn't in there. Ended up with so much lavash. No need to buy extra. The entire thing came up to $63-ish. The food was 4/5 but service was 5/5! I know this economy has everyone struggling. This was probably the most I have spent on Mediterranean food. I would have expected $45-$50. We just came back from Turkey so this would have costed us $15-$20 USD. Portions for rice and meat were good though! All in all- would come back!

I came here last Friday during the afternoon to try their kabob. Coming in, it felt like a…read moremodernized middle eastern bbq shop. It's like a cross between a western style bbq joint and a middle eastern twist with its meats and food. Turns out, this place is mainly an Afghan restaurant! It's half eatery half a butcher shop for people to come and purchase fresh meats for some home cooking. In fact, I watched a lot of people coming in and ordering meats to go. I ordered their chili lamb kabob which was tender and juicy. It had lots of flavor from the spices but enough to where it wasn't overwhelming. I ordered it on top of a pillow of rice which was fluffy and buttery textured. It was delicious. There are sauce bottles to pair with the meats which is my favorite part. I really liked their white creamy yogurt sauce mixed with their red house chili sauce. It gave my lamb meat so much flavor and some heat. I loved my order and will definitely order two next time. I also want to try their steaks. They take their time grilling their meats so orders can take a short while. It's worth it for sure. No complaints here but I do wish they played some light music in the background for some ambiance. Things can be real quiet in here so it can be awkward dining in. Other than that, I really like this place and will be back for more.

They no longer serve their popular lamb shank, bummer…read more We started with the Turmeric Roasted Cauliflower. The cauliflower had a nice crunch, and the batter was well-seasoned and flavorful. Grilled Octopus was excellent as always, my favorite dishes here. Lamb Osso Bucco was served with orzo rice, peas, morels. Lamb was tender and well-seasoned. Tamarind Glazed Salmon served with kale and red quinoa. The salmon itself was good, but I don't think the quinoa was a good match with the dish. The flatbread was the most disliked item we had. It was a bit bland and too doughy. We enjoyed the Peyrassol Rosé (France 2025), which was not only nice to see but also nice to drink. Love the smooth texture and taste. Vanilla Crème Brûlée was enjoyable, the shortbread cookie was somewhat bland. Chocolate Date Cake was rich and quite sweet. Even we shared it among 3-4 people, we still couldn't finish it. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience.

Service was lacking professionalism and timeliness Came to celebrate a birthday dinner and we were immediately disappointed by the service team - couldn't find the reservation (made a month in advance) - sat us without menus - when they did bring menus, they only had 2 for a party of 6... Food was overall good but the server oversold everything. The taste and balance was decent but pricing was 100% unjustified. Review of our table's order - excluding the obvious lack of value and weird plating choices: - mezze dips: skip. rip off. - cauliflower: maybe the best dish of the meal - octopus: sauce was unnecessary and portion size was terrible - caesar salad: not good - lamb shank: tender but the sides were trash - branzino: parts tasted not fully cooked. - lamb chops: DRY. Hammered the protein and drenched in oil...? Do not get. - chicken: large portion and maybe the best bang for buck when feeding large parties. it was ok. No wonder they closed shortly after. I get the high rent given Santana Row pricing but do a little better when hiring service staff.

We had seen this Persian restaurant many times on Instagram and were really looking forward to…read moretrying it. We drove all the way from Walnut Creek to San Jose specifically to eat here, so unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing compared to what we had seen online. The difference was noticeable enough that we actually asked the staff if the person we had repeatedly seen cooking and preparing the food on Instagram was there that day. They told us that they were not. At that point, it made more sense to us why the food seemed so different from what we had seen online. Of course, we can only speak about our experience that day, but what we were served simply did not look or feel like the food we had been expecting based on their social media. The koobideh was dry and overcooked, with one side noticeably burned and tough. The chicken kabob, however, had a good flavor and was tasty. Overall, the food was also extremely oily, with what seemed like a lot of butter added on top. The ghormeh sabzi had very little herbs in it, almost like we received the last portion from the pot, although the flavor itself was good. The gheimeh also tasted good, but it did not seem fresh to us. The split peas were extremely soft, mushy, and falling apart, which is not what we would expect from freshly made gheimeh. It really felt like the stew had been sitting for a while. One thing we really loved was the mast-o-musir -- it was excellent and probably our favorite part of the meal. We also ordered doogh without mint and received it with mint, but that was a very minor issue and didn't really bother us. On the positive side, the staff were very nice and the restaurant was clean and pleasant. Unfortunately, we came primarily for the food, and that was the part that disappointed us the most. After driving all the way from Walnut Creek to San Jose specifically because of what we had seen on Instagram, what we received was simply not what we expected. Based on this experience, it's not somewhere we would make the long drive to visit again.

Double Combo Plate - Turmeric Rice - Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Beef - The Works (Everything included) - Tzatziki sauce - Falafel (Side) - Waffle Fries (Side) Okay, the presentation of the combo plate wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but I looked past it. Unfortunately, the chicken and beef were lacking in flavor and were pretty dry. The portions were generous, though the gyro beef was sliced pretty thin. The veggies were actually fresh, which was a plus. The hummus was on the lighter side flavor-wise, while the Baha Ghanouj had a solid roasted aftertaste. The Achilles spread was... interesting. It was very fatty with a garlic aftertaste. It just wasn't my thang. The waffle fries were cool. They were fried well and had a good crunch, but nothing special. The falafel, though, was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch. They were very crunchy, but had a weird dish-soap aftertaste that I couldn't get past. I couldn't finish the rest. Sorry, but I'll be on the lookout for another Mediterranean spot.

Paired with the green and white sauces they provide, it was definitely the star of the dinner for me. I could easily eat 2-3 of these by myself The roasted goat cutlet was also really good. It was a little on the fatty side, but I actually liked the crispy, slightly charred ends--it gave the meat a nice texture and flavor. Overall, everything was flavorful and satisfying. But if I came back, I'd definitely be ordering the sambusa again!

The avgolemono soup was so lemon forward and they used orzo pasta instead of rice, which was a new experience for me, but I enjoyed it a lot as well. I plan to try their gyro wrap next or their pork gyro, but man, that souvlaki is kind of a winner in my book!
