Got the crispy shwarma which is the viral dish and it is good. My friend got the first sandwich choice, good however didn't stand out as much as the shwarma. Got the triangular baklava with wheat threads. Tasted like a sweeter version of shredded wheat. Overall very good and a few tables to eat at. read more

The service was great, the staff was welcoming, and the restaurant was clean with a pleasant atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food didn't have a good quality. I ordered the Koobideh meal, and the kebab was very dry and stiff instead of being tender and juicy, which is the texture you would normally expect from a good koobideh. One small suggestion would be to include some fresh basil on the side, as it's a traditional accompaniment that really complements the meal. I hope this was just an off day, and I'd be happy to give the restaurant another try in the future. read more

The sandwich was sooo good! The meat was super juicy and the bread was great too. It's a little expensive but reasonable for the size of the sandwich. The staff here are very friendly and when you walk in you get a waft of fresh bread. Would recommend! read more

Super nice staff. We tried the saffron ice cream and the shawarma. The ice cream is not your typical ice cream - it has a floral taste to it from the rosewater ice and more of a nutty taste rather than sweet, which was a nice touch. The shawarma is solid - my favorite was the koobideh it was super juicy and had this umami sauce. read more

I have been to the Oskoo market a couple of times and I was I noticed that they have opened a Oskoo Kitchen & Bakery section just 25 feet away in the same shopping plaza. The menu looked interesting and I noticed that there were many take out orders, so I decided to swing by and give this place a try. The parking situation is easy, there are plenty of spots, unless there is a meal time rush from the nearby Shaoshan Impression, in which the parking lot can get full, but you fortunately can still snag a spot a bit further away. The kitchen and bakery itself is clean and minimalist with a TV playing some music and several small tables and chairs set up. You take your order, and they will get back to you when your food is done. It unfortunately took them half an hour to get my order out that day, maybe it was a combination of higher takeout order volume that day, or under staffed, or something else - I didn't think my order was particularly complex. It even seemed like people who arrived later to pick up their takeout order had to wait an additional 10-20 minutes as well before getting their food. I tried the Beef Tongue Melt ($16) and the Pistachio Cheesecake ($6), which were decent. The sandwich was tasty, the beef tongue was tender and had a pleasant fall apart texture, and was nicely held together with the melted cheese. The rich flavors of cheese and meat where complimented will with the acidity from the pickles. The house made bread was good - the crust wasn't hard and the bread had a well-made spongy texture. With the price, I think I was expecting a bigger sandwich, as tasty as it was, it was small. Personally, I think you could get way 2x - 3x more beef tongue from a nearby taco spot for a fraction of the price and have the texture and taste be just as good if not better. The photo may have it look like a lot, but to be honest, I think majority of people could easily finish one of these sandwiches and finish half of another if they were hungry. The pistachio cheesecake was alright, I think if you are looking for a chocolate ganache forward cheesecake, this will be your jam. The texture is pleasant and the taste is good, but it does get a bit one dimensional the more you eat it. I think that Oskoo kitchen and bakery is an alright place in the Belred area in terms of food. The competition there is fierce with the amount of other delicous options in the area. I think I might give this place one more try in the future - I would recommend giving them a call to place your order in the future due to a longer wait time. read more

If you enjoy paying a lot of money for a small amount of tasteless food, this place is for you. But seriously, this is the worst shawarma in the area, and the service is terrible too. We were the only customers in the café, our order was already prepared, and not only did we have to wait a long time, but the staff then put our order somewhere out of sight and seemingly forgot about it. And eating while working in front of customers isn't exactly a great look either. read more

Let's get the negatives out of the way first: Wait was long Decor is very minimal -- feels like the place has way more potential than what you see NOW... the sandwich ‍ Absolutely worth it. I expected the usual boring pita. Nope. The Persian bread was the real MVP -- soft, fresh, and took this sandwich to another level. The koobideh was juicy, flavorful, and clearly done right. Sauces were perfectly balanced -- present, tasty, and not overpowering. Bottom line: Come for the sandwich, not the vibes. I'd wait again... but only because that bread earned it read more

Expensive, skimpy on meat, long wait time. Nothing remarkable. Stop believing social media!

Got some dolmas here. The grape leaves was a bit rough/hard. The rice was okay. I paid $8 for 5 dolmas. I probably would buy the canned kind at TJ but wanted to try it out. read more

MUST TRY - Koobideh Sandwhich!!! And get the fresh baked Barbari Bread--to die for with butter and honey smeared on. On my last visit a new line-up of home made pickled goods was offered on the counter. I bought what looked like summer veggie garden in a jar (I'm told it's called Torshi). It's the perfect and most delicious accompaniment/garnish ever. read more

The Crispy Shawarma and the kabob sandwich (1st sandwich on the menu) were both delicious! The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. The only downside was the service - it took about 15 minutes to prepare two sandwiches, which felt a bit long for a fast-food restaurant. That said, the food was worth the wait, so I'm still giving them 5 stars! read more
