    Great dinner with delicious meats, rice, sides and drinks! Ambiance is friendly and spacious for big parties . Service was great and welcoming! I will come back again.

    My fiancé and I love this restaurant! The service is incredible! Everyone is so kind and welcoming. The food is also very good. We love the romantic and peaceful ambience of this place. We usually go on a week night. If you come by, you have to try the pineapple saffron martini. It's my favorite drink on their menu!

    Love this place! You can't go wrong with Persian food and Darya Orange is the best spot for it. I don't think I've ever had such succulent chicken in my life. Very flavorful and fragrant. The accompanying rice and salad are perfectly matched with the protein. Ambience is elegant and traditional, and the service is friendly and hospitable. Overall, it's a memorable dining experience and worth every bite!

    Came here for my birthday and LOVED it. Their workers are super sweet and welcoming which was a great start to the night. We ordered the Shirazi salad and hummus to start. For meat we got beef, lamb, and chicken koobideh. We had pickles and rice and veggies which paired so well with everything. The meat was so juicy and the rice was perfect texture. Absolutely loved it! No valet parking

    Darya has been on my list, though the one in LA, not here. I visited on Father's Day in the afternoon, and there were many tables dining in. Amongst our friend group of young adults, one of the funniest recounts was how the staff member only said Happy Father's Day to one individual and not the rest of us - whom were coincidentally not celebrating, though we did not know til later. One of us came for juicy chicken, and we were initially disappointed to hear that they had a special Father's Day menu which did not include that. We instead ordered off the condensed menu menu for items like dough, lamb / beef kabobs, etc. We had their borani and yogurt based dip and a pitcher of dough to start off, and since that order, service was nonexistent unless we actively flagged someone down - including water refills. Once all of our entrees arrived, we all agreed that it was not impressive or normal; most of the meats were dry and very bland, which is unlike the Persian food that any of us had eaten - and we have had quite a bit before. The flavor and experience were something that not even sumac could've fixed. Was it perhaps that none of us were Persian that we were barely checked on and had to actively ask for everything? Or perhaps this was an off day - but no Father's Day? These questions may remain unanswered, but we all know which Persian restaurant to call a regular, and it's not this one.

    We had a wonderful experience at Darya Restaurant. We started with mast-o-moosir and tahdig topped with ghormeh sabzi and gheymeh--every bite was comforting and perfectly cooked. They also brought out freshly baked bread with butter to start, which was a great touch. For the main course, we ordered the fesenjoon and the soltani kabob. The fesenjoon was outstanding--hands down my favorite I've ever had. Rich, perfectly balanced, and unforgettable. The soltani kabob was also excellent, cooked just right and very flavorful. Everything we tried was delicious, the staff was very friendly, and the service was great from start to finish. Highly recommend if you're craving quality Persian food.

    I've been coming to Darya since I was a kid, and it's still one of my all-time favorite spots. As someone with a Persian grandma who's an amazing cook, I grew up around great Persian food, and this place definitely holds its own. Every time we're in the area, it's a must-visit. We've brought friends and family here over the years, and without fail, they fall in love with it too. The food is consistently delicious, the service is always warm and attentive, and the ambiance is elegant yet welcoming. If you go on a Friday or Saturday night, you're in for a treat with live music and belly dancing, it adds such a fun, lively energy to the evening. Highly recommend it for anyone wanting an authentic and memorable Persian dining experience.

    Been coming to this restaurant for years. Love the menu! The servers are so friendly and nice. The food is incredible. The Fesenjān is my favorite! So tasty and the crispy rice is a great addition. The filet mignon kabobs are another great item. Highly recommend but other items in menu for lunch are wonderful.
