The food is made to order. It's probably ideal to have his takeout, although there was one circular table with four chairs. The food tasted delicious. However, if I got the beef burger in the future, I'd ask it without ranch salad dressing just because I'm not a fan. I'd highly recommend the food and probably easier to order it ahead of time and then go pick it up. I ended up ordering it while I was there in the grocery store and had to wait around a gentleman that was running. The cash register was friendly and helpful however he wasn't from Abdullah's kitchen. He was an employee for the grocery store. I'd give the food a five out of five the atmosphere or location three out of five and the service of four out of five again this is on the actual restaurant not the grocery store

It had great Persian vibe including music played. Food and drinks: Very good selection of traditional dishes that were not westernised as in other Persian restaurants. The food was fresh, well seasoned and was full of flavours. The meats were moist, salad and starter tasted fresh. Pinch of sumac which was available on each table was a perfect addition to our dishes. Highly recommend hot Persian tea. Pricing: $$ - very affordable for the quality and quantity of foods received.

However, we were charged for it at the end. I understand the charge itself, but no one at the table had ordered it; they just set it on the table. It would have been nice if the staff had made it clear or asked if we wanted to add it to our meal. Perhaps there was a mix up with another table. Our experience was otherwise great, but double check the menu for what is complimentary and what isn't.

Their cherry rice is just top tier here and it goes so well. I had never had cherry rice before coming here and I'm hooked!. From the pictures you can see its quite a generous portions of rice so you'll be pretty full by the end of it. Kabobs beef/chicken, always extremely fresh, juicy, and rich in flavor. Hummus with the complimentary naan goes so well together I've came back year after years and am happy to report that their quality has remained the same. I always recommend Avesta when it comes to Persian food!

It's the kind of spot that works just as well for a casual dinner as it does for a relaxed night out with friends or family. We started off with the lentil soup, which was comforting and flavorful--light yet satisfying, with a nice balance of spices. The hummus was smooth, creamy, and elevated even more by the complimentary fresh bread, which came out warm and perfectly baked--easily one of the highlights of the meal. For mains, the Koobideh Combination stole the show. The kababs were juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly, with that classic smoky flavor that makes Persian kabobs so good. Definitely the standout dish and a must-order. The Salmon & Chicken combo was equally impressive--both proteins were tender, nicely grilled, and paired beautifully with the saffron rice and grilled vegetables, giving you a great mix of flavors and textures. We also tried the Soujuk & Cheese Lahmajun, which added a nice twist to the meal. It had a crispy base with rich, savory toppings, and the cheese brought everything together really well--great for sharing. Avesta is a solid go-to for Persian cuisine in Houston. Between the quality of the kababs, fresh bread, and overall flavor, everything hit the mark. Pair that with the great atmosphere and welcoming staff, and it's definitely a place worth coming back to

First time and I absolutely love the food here. By far I would say this is the best Persian food I…read moreever had. I got the Reza #3, chicken is super juicy and the charred taste was smoky and fresh. The beef was grounded but very juicy as well. The flavor is well balanced, came with a side of salad, it was little too vinaigrette for me but my boyfriend loves it. He got the Reza #2, chicken was mostly breast I think so was more dry, but still tasted great with the hummus. Overall, the experience was pleasant and we will be back again. Service was fast and friendly, they offered complimentary hot tea at the end too, was very fragrant and refreshing after a homey meal. Interior was nicely decorated in a modern vibe, simple and aesthetic. Parking is ample. I also saw a lot of people ordering their mint lemonade, which I will try next time! Seems like it's so popular

The ambiance was spacious and well lit, but began to get loud once the dinner crowd started arriving.

Everything we ordered just tasted fresh and well seasoned. - kashke bademjan (sautéed eggplant with garlic, yogurt, mint). Paired well with their special bread topped with sesame seeds (yum!) - mix stews (half ghormeh sabzi and half gheymey bademjan). Get the best of both stews if you can't decide on one. Love this option. - Reza 4 specialty (lamb chop, kubideh, chicken, with cranberry rice and Persian salad). Large portion, easily for 2-3 people. Lamb chops were my favorite. I honestly enjoyed and would highly recommend coming here. The staff were quick, friendly, and efficient. Parking lot wasn't overwhelmingly packed. I will definitely return. Thank you, Reza!!

First time at Bibi's last week. It's a cute Persian cafe with definite mom and pop vibes with a…read moreselection of grocery items, and pastries that you could purchase as well. I unfortunately didn't try any of the baked goodies, but will be back to give it a go. I came at lunchtime and got 2 sandwiches to try- the Bandari (sausage) and the Cotlet. I also got the Haleem, since I'd never had it before. I devoured the Bandari in my car, which is a feat for me since I rarely finish a sandwich like that in one sitting. The cotlet sandwich was good, but the Bandari was my favorite. The Haleem is basically like poreidge, with a slight sweetness and cinnamon on top. Not sure the texture was my fave, but it was a comforting breakfast substitute for me. Service was sweet. The mom who took the order was the one who headed back into the kitchen and made my food. Loved it, definitely want to come back!

I was really disappointed with my experience. The food I received Kale patches) looked nothing like…read morethe pictures advertised. What was shown online looked fresh, vibrant, what I got was the complete opposite the serving portion was nothing like their advertised . I attached their pic and our food To go, you are the judge. Also I ordered their Barbary bread, and by the next day, it was so hard like plastic I couldn't even bite into it. Totally inedible. If you're going to promote something with such appealing photos, you need to make sure your actual product lives up to it. Why compromise your business by cutting corners on quality? If you just stick to what you promise, you wouldn't be getting reviews like this. Customers notice, and trust is easy to lose.

All I can say that the kebab, soltani, lamb ribs, and Persian ice cream,were amazing. - Modern, clean ambiance. Bad: - Gets crowded during busy the weekends.

I lost count on how mang times I've been here. A few of my favorites are the beef koobideh, shrimp, sea bass, but my number one has to be the lamb rack. I always get the mushroom hummus! It's a must. The whipped feta has these sweet tomatoes that are addicting. The restaurant is gorgeous and the servers are usually attentive. It may seem pricy to some, but trust me, the portions are huge. You can honestly share the lamb rack plate and the mushroom hummus between 2 people, and be stuffed. That's my usual order!

I was talked into purchasing falafels as a starter and I'm so glad I did. The Falafels easily exceeded a five rating and possibly the best I've ever had. Dumar's will absolutely be a part of my lunch rotation spots.

Had the Gyro platter where I subbed a side Greek salad ($2.50 up charge) for the standard seasoned fries. The lettuce was crisp with wonderful pepper sprinkled on top of the tomatoes & the vinegarette dressing was so tasty with just the right amount on the salad. The gyro had really great flavor. The meat was tender & very well seasoned. The pita was especially yummy also with the tomatoes, onions & taziki sauce. It was just a darn good gyro. Definitely one of the top ones I've had in the area. The place is small, located in a strip mall, but was fine to dine-in. They also have outdoor table seating. The gentleman who took our order was super friendly. I presume there are lots of regular customers because as soon as we walked in he said, hey I don't recognize you, is this your first time in? It's a little bit of a drive for me but I will definitely return to get my "good gyro fix" with friendly service!

It is on the lighter side and I wish there was more protein but for the amount of sides it's pretty decent. There's a lot of options and I usually do the family meals or one entree and 3 sides.

Lamb shank 5/5 Also lightly seasoned but the lamb is so tender and falls right off the bone. Hummus 5/5 Love the different options they have. Pita 1/5 Dry as a brick.

This was my third time I have given this location a try and this time was so bad I had to write about it. I ordered a Chicken Shawarma and the entire sandwich tasted like fish of all things!

How else could the whole sandwich taste infused with it. I paid over 15 dollars to have my stomach turned. Three strikes and you're out Fadi's in Sugar Land. I will NEVER eat there again!!!
