Upgraded the rice to adas polo and it was as good as any other, thought I thought the price to upgrade ($5.99) was steep. Kashk O'bademjan has become one of my favorite Persian dishes to order and theirs did not disappoint. Takeout was well packaged. Recommended!

I can confidently say that Darbari Persian Grill is my all-time favorite spot for Persian cuisine…read more Every single time I come here, it's consistently amazing. My go-to order is the chicken Cornish, and I always substitute the rice for zereshk polo. The rice is perfectly fluffy every time, and the barberries add the most delicious tang that just brings the whole dish together. It's seriously so good. They're also incredibly generous with their lavash bread, which I love because it pairs perfectly with everything. But what really makes this place special is the service. Everyone here is genuinely so kind and attentive, and I mean everyone. You're always greeted when you walk in and again when you leave, which just makes the whole experience feel so warm and welcoming. There's also an older gentleman who is always there with the biggest smile, checking in to make sure everything is perfect, and it never goes unnoticed. I also love that it's pet-friendly. The outdoor seating area with the turf is such a nice touch, and my dog absolutely loves it. Overall, this place is a 10/10 with 1000/10 service. Anytime I'm in the area, I have to stop here without fail.

Spicy chicken was not too spicy just a hint and chicken was tender, flavorful, & juicy. Rice was soft and hot. Overall the entree was really good! I'm not into Mediterranean food that much but this has to be my favorite one! Ask for some sauces on the side, owner gave me a white sauce and hot sauce and utensils to go with my meal. Service: The owner was the cashier and took our order. He was very friendly and nice and very welcoming. Ambiance: Nice and small, next to Newport Beach. It's a vibe all around. They close at 12am. As a person who isn't into Mediterranean food, I give this place 9/10 stars! This will be my go to Mediterranean food.

We waited about 15 mins for someone to come and offer us menus or beverages but it seemed as though we had been forgotten. It felt like we were an inconvenience. My husband ended up calling over a waiter and asked if we could order as we had looked up the menu's online. Our waiter, George, was phenomenal! Super kind, apologetic and kept us updated throughout the night. He understood that we were not having the best experience, and was trying his best to make us feel comfortable and welcomed. We had a baby with us so we asked that we be seated away from any hookah, and they really honored that request and made sure nobody near us was smoking. The food was decent, well seasoned and tasty, but nothing mindblowing. Slow to arrive but it seemed like this evening in particular was just a new kind of busy for the restaurant. In any case, I think if you've got time to sit and chat and wait for food and service, you won't feel it as much, but we had a baby, and a group of hungry adults who felt every minute of the waiting. I'd probably come back on a weeknight and try it out again; hoping that we don't get forgotten about by our first waitress.

I love that they don't skimp on the ingredients! perfect pairing with buttery rice pilaf. the almond pudding dessert in the end was really refreshing I left feeling satisfied with half my stew and rice. Excited to take it home and eat it more servers worked as a team very efficiently and kindly. The space is spacious and looks like a go to place for families.
