Corner grill - Hummus - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Vista, California

Best basmati rice I've ever had. The lamb kabob is also fantastic. The place is nice, clean, and easy going. They have a good selection of dips to take home with your pita bread, and the desserts (try the honey cake) are amazing. We went for a late lunch, about 2:00, and there was plenty of seating inside and out. read more

Stopped by for lunch and took it to go for me and a co worker it was pretty good better thank Shaks for sure

Small spot tucked away in the corner of a business plaza. The food was good and the staff were friendly. I look forward to coming back.

Everything tasted amazing! The kebabs were juicy and full of flavor, the rice was fluffy and fragrant, and the grilled veggies were a perfect touch. Super fresh, generous portions -- I'd gladly order this again! read more

Corner grill - Order #10 - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Vista, California

Yeah, pretty good stuff here. Very modest 'deli-like' setting but hugely popular. We were there for a rather busy Tuesday lunch crowd. We got there just at the beginning of the rush, yet I watched plates come flying out of the back soon after arriving. We were told "give me 10 minutes" and our 'best ever tasted' hummus came out only 1 minute late, then the very good Kabob entrees came just 3 minutes after that. The chicken breast Kabob was seasoned and cooked perfectly moist, something not commonly found at many/most kabob houses. The good lamb kabob chunks worked well with the grilled red onions and bell peppers however neither of the plates came with the aforementioned hummus and pita. All drinks are bottled/canned from the fridge, unless you want tap from the back. "I'll have the bottle", I said to one of the two or three working the place as they all seemed to show out front at different times. Service was friendly and hospitable after ordering at the counter and finding any available seat. And, they knew where every plate went without numbers on the tables or names being called. Outside tables looked to be popular and a nice area, however we didn't venture out in this day after the recent rain here in North County. Plates and servings were adequate and the plate's rice and 'built on the plate' salad were plentiful, and the bright and flavorful dill dressing filled up the voids. Also, along with the plates, they served an outstanding yogurt and vegetable dressing for dipping. Where have these guys been hiding? Great spot here in the North County. I just wish I had tried the day's special stew. We will be back to try other menu options. Dicks read more

This is our first stop in San Diego. We have enjoyed kabobs from Istanbul to various locations across the USA. The overall experience was okay. Not all items on the menu are halal, but the customer service was excellent. read more

Good Mediterranean food. I had the lamb shank, which was very good. Didn't get to try the full spectrum of tabouli, hummus, etc. but I'll be back to try them again. read more

Highly recommended, this is persian restaurant with high quality food , you have to try ghormeh sabzi and chicken kabab boneless , love the taste read more

I personally know the owner he's very kind and considerate very helpful works very hard the Persian food is amazing. I wish she would add real onions to the kebab. I stopped going there and ordering food because of the specific person that he hired Mehdi he's very arrogant and he's snarky and whenever my family goes in there to order food he's very disrespectful. He's the most rude and disrespectful person and I'll never go back in there again we have spent many years buying food there. But because of this man's attitude we don't go there anymore. He needs to find someone else who has a better attitude read more

I love koobideh and I knew I wanted some takeout since our house was cleaned too to bottom and I didn't want to dirty the kitchen. We decided to try this place. We ordered via a delivery app and got a gyro plate and then a koobideh and chicken plate, a large hummus and a scallion sauce + lavash. Everything was 10/10. I wish they had sour cherry rice. Loved this place. read more

AMAZING FOOD. Some of the best Persian Food we've had. What a pleasant find. Definitely a keeper. It took a little while for the food to arrive but it was well worth the wait. The chicken was soft & moist. The Koobideh was great too. I REALLY wish we lived close by so we could come here more often. It'll definitely be our stop to dine whenever we're in town. read more

The food was very good. I ordered online and it was ready when I arrived early. The guy behind the counter was very nice, I think it was the owner. The seating area is open and clean. It is good for small groups of people. I understand that it is busy during the lunch hour. That is a good sign. read more

Really good Persian food - what a shock to find this in a strip mail! Super clean. highly recommend.

It is delicious hear the food. The salad that comes with the meal is very tasty and good with the salad dressing. They have lamb, chicken, steak, Cornish hen, and it is all tasty. There are also hummus and yogurt with shallots to go if you want as well as some ice cream sandwiches that are delicious. I have been back several times and will be back again. The staff is super nice and knowledgeable on the food. Highly recommended. read more

Corner grill - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Vista, California

A quick decision this evening... where to get a tasty dinner 5 min from home. Now! Must have.... Excellent review. Clean interior. Encouraging website. All that and more. First off, though, I looked at the prices on their menu and I was hesitant. Pricey at first glance. I opted for the chicken chunk sandwich at $10.99. I wanted the salmon and rice plate but not at $17.99. It took 10-15 min to get my order and it was worth it. As you can see it's a very large sandwich loaded with chicken chunks, fresh cucumber salad inside. The tzatziki sauce so good, I asked for more. Very well made, fresh, tasty. Satisfying for sure. Maybe next time.... The salmon plate. Trust your google maps to help you find this "corner " grill for sure. Note! Closes at 6:30pm!! read more

Definitely hidden in the corner of an old strip mall, this is a hidden gem. I'm always trying to find a good place with affordable fresh food in this part of town. This is it! I had tenderloin with salad and hummus. Super fresh, made to order and delicious. My new Vista go to. read more

As a Persian I highly recommend this place! Owner is really cool and the food is great. I recommend the ghormeh sabzi and get the baklava too. Only feedback I have is that they need fesenjoon on the menu! read more

I ordered the chicken and beef kabob sandwich's. I paid over 35 dollars for both sandwiches thinking they'd live up to the price. I couldn't have been more wrong. The lettuce was welted and there was barely any meat in the sandwiches. They were 70% pita and lettuce. Didn't get a bit of meat till my 5th bite into the sandwich. Not to mention the chicken was dry. I never write reviews but I had to say something about this place. Very disappointed. I can't speak for anything else on the menu but this experience was enough for me not to go back. read more

SUCH GOOD FOOD! I love Mediterranean and this spot did not disappoint. The service was also amazing since the owner kept checking up on us. Everyone needs to check this spot out! read more

Wow! Saw the sign and found this hidden gem! Deep in the corner of a sleepy shopping center there is delicious Persian and Mediterranean food! Service was great! Very friendly! We were served at our patio table. He told us it would be about 10 minutes. I appreciated that... meant the food was being prepared to order. Highly recommended! We shall be back! read more

Food was great, but the awkward tip prompt for takeout ruined it. Wasn't living wage in California supposed to remove the need for the tip? Seems greedy now w the prices increasing like they have. read more

Solid food and service. Kabobs were juicy and flavorful, rice was perfectly cooked, the value and portions were on point. Highly recommend, would definitely come back! read more

This place is a delicious hidden gem! I placed an order and when I got home I noticed that they had forgot to give me all of my food. I called to see if I can come pick it up and they actually insisted they come and drop it off. Absolutely amazing customer service and the owner is very very nice and pleasant A bonus was they actually gave us free baklava for the troubles! read more

Wow! Impressed us again. I had gotten the chicken skewer before and loved it, so was going to order it again. I m glad they were out, tho, because it made me order the lamb skewer. It was delicious- very tender and well seasoned. My wife had the daily stew special. It tasted completely different - but also excellent. It's not a fancy place, but is clean and pleasant. Owner was very nice and came over, asked how the food was, and chatted a bit. They also have Persian ice cream (Laleh), which is a nice treat as well. We will be back! read more

Lets start with the food. Everything was delicious!! We ordered 16 entrees for lunch today, every single meal was prepared correctly (several special instructions) and every person was so stoked on their food! Now lets move on to customer service. I was so impressed with Corner Grill today. Like I Said, 16 entrees! They called me to verify the order and to update my expectations on timing. I really appreciated the communication, so that I could keep working instead of standing around waiting in the restaurant. When I arrived to pick up, they were so organized and ready for me. Each entree was labeled (including special instructions), which made it super easy to double check to make sure everything was right. They had even printed a copy of the order so I could make sure! Damon was so friendly and helpful and the owner Hamed made sure we had everything we needed. I am so incredibly full right now, so I can't think about when I am going to eat here again, but I can tell you it will be soon!! Thank you Corner Grill for knocking this meal out of the park, you are rockstars!! read more

CATERING REVIEW: We had 40 people attend a Memorial/Family Reunion on 6-15-24 at my house and everyone loved the food! I chose a couple of the package meals (feeds 10 people each), then added extra chicken kabobs, tzatziki and hummus. My guests were mmming out loud and commenting about how delicious everything was. The food was put in long aluminum pans, which fit exactly in my chafing dishes, so with the hot water bath in each pan to keep it warm, it was perfect. The delicious moist meat, killer tzatziki and hummus, plus amazing salad dressing made the event something I was proud of, which honored the passing of my Mom & Dad. read more

You ever bookmark something, and then realize you are not at the place you intended to go? I meant to go to North Park Produce, but ended up here instead. It took me long enough just to find this market, tucked away in the corner of a crappy plaza. I was hungry, the menu looked interesting, so I stayed. Long story short, it was a great mistake to find this hidden gem! I was super impressed, not only with service, but the food and groceries as well. Today I had the salmon kebab, and they let me modify the plate to all salad and no rice. I look forward to working my way down the menu (and getting here earlier on a Friday to try the lamb shank- it was already sold out by the time I arrived). I even treated myself to a dessert called Hala, a nut and seed bar with honey. Delicious. I found a few speciality groceries, such as Labne and Orange Blossom Water, much less expensive than Frazier Farms. I look forward to picking up teas and coffees on a future visit. And maybe, just maybe, the saffron ice cream! I love unique ice cream flavors... It took me a long time to come in (well I meant to go to North Park for my Persian cuisine fix anyway haha), as I am rarely on this side of town. I am glad I made a point to stop in and I plan on putting it into my regular rotation of places to dine! Pros: - super friendly - menu - groceries - desserts - food made fresh to order - real tableware Cons: - meh part of town - not near anything (this plaza sucks!) - closes at dinner (6 pm) read more

Corner grill - Salmon kebab, sub rice for all salad. The presentation on the plate is prettier than the photos on the menu board! - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Vista, California

Yum. Yum. Yum. One of our family's favorite spots! The chicken is absolutely delicious & the rice... I could eat it everyday. My husband enjoys the beef & filet kabobs. We have ordered the family meal & it has lasted us for at least two full meals. We also ordered this for Christmas Eve dinner for 7 people... they did not disappoint! We placed our order a week prior & it was ready for to pickup when they said it would be. They gave us some extra dressing for the salad (which is so good) Fresh ingredients cooked by people you know love what they do... ample portions too! (lots of gluten free options) We generally do take out, but the restaurant is clean and welcoming & we are always greeted by the owners or friendly employees. 10/10 would recommend this small family owned business!!! They are doing it right, give them a try! read more

The dishes never make the photoshoot :( but that is in someway a compliment! Lol seriously, foods always freshly cooked, great food textures, and authenticity throughout the various dishes they serve. Never feels heavy after we eat here either which is a huge plus for lunch hour. read more

Such good food. Don't let the interior fool you, the food is totally worth going in for. Go for the #6, it was everyone's favorite. The owner is super nice too. Finally found a good local Persian cafe. We will definitely be back. read more

Wow! We are only here for a few days and I wish I could be here throughout the week to get each of their lunch specials! I got the number five, chicken kabob and my husband got the combo kebabs. Both of our plates were amazing and the service was great, too. My chicken was cooked perfection. It was nice and charred on the outside and so juicy and tender on the inside. I also got the Saturday lunch special to go because I did not want to miss out! I took it to our hotel for dinner and I had to dig in when we got there because it looked so delicious and the lavash bread looked like they made it in house! This special was a chickpea stew with lots of lamb! My goodness! What a treat! I am definitely bookmarking this place in hopes of a return visit! read more

This might be literally the best chicken I've ever tasted in my life! I was savoring every bite. The dressing is crazy yummy. The tzatziki was just perfect. The beef fell apart! How is it even possible to get the beef and chicken this tender? The service was exceptional. The serving size was generous. It's so cute inside!! Homey and inviting. We will be back! read more
