Came with friends for restaurant week! The service was great, very kind and helpful, suggested some great menu items. The food comes in large portions and sooo flavorful, we all three ate and still had plenty for left overs, the ambiance is actually VERY nice and quant would definitely come back and visit

First time and I absolutely love the food here. By far I would say this is the best Persian food I ever 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

Reza was a delightful Persian grill that we randomly came across on a Saturday late afternoon. We were seated right away and their table already has a plate of their fresh herbs (Sabzi Khordana) waiting for you. The ambiance was spacious and well lit, but began to get loud once the dinner crowd started arriving. Their menu is pretty straight forward and very informative for someone who isn't familiar with Persian food. 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!!

L4 on menu Lamb Shank w/basmati rice and fava beans $17

I had lunch here a few weeks ago for the first time. My party was promptly seated and after reviewing the menu I chose L4 which is the lamb shank for $17. The meal arrived in less than 15 minutes later and looked great on the plate. A big lamb shank served with basmati rice, dill and fava beans and it was a very good tasting meal. The meat was juicy and tender and rice and beans equally as good. Also at that price point, it was a real value. We all enjoyed our meals and the table service was very good too. I would be happy to come back.

It our first time going to Reza Persian Grill and we really enjoyed the food!! The staff was super kind and helpful. The bread was amazing and super soft and chewy. We also got a hummus to pair with it. I got the Reza specialty 2 and my gf got the Reza specialty 3, and we both really liked what we ordered. The ground beef kebab was our favorite, and we want to try the lamb next time. Highly recommend

It's been awhile since I've had Reza, as always the R2 completes my lunch or even dinner. You got the Beef Koobideh and the Chicken Barg with their Cranberry Rice and Hummus. Of course the complimentary bread with their cheese and herbs and their Persian tea always is a nice touch.

I love this restaurant! The chicken is perfectly made and seasoned to perfection. Their ghameh was also very delicious. Everything they have is delicious. This Persian restaurant is ranked top 5 in my list of favorite Mediterranean restaurants.

Beautiful decor

I didn't get the rice with the cranberries in it because I just prefer a plain rice, but the meat I got was perfectly seasoned and cooked well. The cubed chicken and the koobidah were both great. The tandoori bread was awesome, and the mint drink was good as well. The décor inside is beautiful and trendy, but also looks timeless. I would return.

Chris M.

I really liked the food, especially in the koobideb was fantastic. They also serve kotlet, which is one of my favorite dishes and not commonly found in any other restaurant. The homemade bread also tasted fantastic, and the service was top-notch. Pricing is also great.

We usually substitute the rice for Persian salad. Diced cucumbers, tomatoes and red onions with a Persian dressing. My favorite. For something different, try the fesenjan. Chicken served with a pomegranate, walnut and saffron stew served with basmati rice. So tangy and sweet. Love this one! Add some hummus, whipped feta or warm eggplant dip while you wait for dinner.

I must say I have to echo her review, as we were blown away by the flavors. The restaurant was packed, and the decor was fancy but comfortable. One look at the interior and clientele already convinced me this place would be authentic. We opted to try 2 different combos, the Kasra and seafood combo, so we could share and try a bit of everything. It's hard to pick a favorite, all the proteins were flavorful and tender. The rice was a whole talking point just by itself. I often get bored with plain old white rice, so I'm glad Kasra seasons their rice well. The portions were very generous as well, they left me full after cleaning up that whole plate. This was an excellent introduction to Persian cuisine for me, we got lucky that we chose a place that would leave a great first impression!

We had a larger party & ended up getting the family platter to split. We also got sides of the hummus and garlic sauce. Their hummus was really delicious! Definitely a standout. All the different kebabs on the family platter were yummy. I liked the chicken kubideh kebab the best! It was nice and juicy w/ good flavor. The jujeh, chicken kebab, and kubideh were all good, but could've been a bit more juicy for my tastes. But overall everything was yummy. The rices were good too - I liked the baghali the most. Ambiance was nice, it was pretty crowded and a bit on the louder, but had a nice and welcoming vibe. They had some interesting artwork. And value was great, it ended up not being too expensive for our table of 6. You can call and make a reservation, I recommend this on weekends as the place was pretty packed. Also - there's a parking garage in the middle of rice village with 2hrs free parking. Definitly recommend that as well because street parking can be hard to find

I have grown to trust the people who write reviews, so we went around 5:30-5:45 during the week; it turned out to be a good idea. There were just a few tables that had two, three, and four people. I've been going to restaurants for a long time and for those of you that also go, the moment you walk in there's a smell of food being prepared that wafts out from the kitchen. It's a good smell at Kasra. It was a tad early to get a true vibe, but I didn't care; I wasn't there for the vibe. Our waitress was great and knew what she was talking about. Friendly and polite, she checked on us frequently to make sure we were getting what we wanted. The food was very good and we enjoyed the different tastes from cold to hot appetizers. Make sure you try the hummus I don't stand in any line for anything, but that said if you're looking for the complete experience then go on the weekend around dinner time.

We appreciated that kind gesture. Every food item on the menu looked delicious. I decided on the Lamb Rack. Loved the texture of the lamb and loved the basmati rice. Lamb was cooked perfectly, and the rice was very fragrant. We were offered a complimentary Persian Ice Cream Sandwich which had an unique flavor. It wouldn't be a flavor for everyone, but to me, it was a perfect ending to a great entree as it was light and mildly sweet. Note that not all food options are halal. Their website is updated with the information and you could also ask the server for clarification. Absolutely adore the interior. The restaurant could get loud but still bearable.

By the time we got to our table, we had only an hour to dine before the restaurant closes. Thankfully, our wonderful server was quick to get us settled in and that made up for the slow start. We tried a few dishes and found the starters to be more tasty than the main entree. Shirazi Salad, Rumi's Wings, Crispy Potato, Cremini & Oyster Mushroom Hummus was well worth sharing plates. Unfortunately, the Chicken Kabob lacked seasoning and any depth of flavor. It was the least favorite dish of the night. We also sampled every single desserts on the menu, but only the Majoon Toffee Cake won us over with its deliciously warm and comforting sweetness. While we enjoyed some dishes, the overall taste was just average for an upscale establishment. One major detail was the underwhelming of plating when it can play a vital role in how food is perceived. A little more finesse could really add value to the dining experience.

Came here for a lunch with the SO while we were in the area…read more We ordered the appetizer sampler, koobideh combo, and meat in a bowl (forgot the name but it was one of their specialities). The bread the veggies that came out were very good. The appetizer sampler we got the eggplant dish, hummus, and yogurt and shallot. The hummus was not our favorite as our other go to Persian places seem to have a smoother texture but the eggplant was good. The yogurt was pretty tangy with light shallot flavor that wasn't super detectable but it was still nice. The koobideh was juicy and the rice and tahdig that came with it was super yummy. I don't love the seasoning for the chicken koobideh but that's just a preference thing nothing was wrong or unpleasant about it. The lamb koobideh was on point. The meat that my SO had was very good as well. Beef was tender. The chicken was tender. The only thing I was confused about was that my SO was supposed to also have tahdig on his rice but didn't receive it, he just got normal rice. My SO didn't tell me until the very end of the meal though so we didn't say anything to them but it was strange to forget that part of the meal. We didn't knock them for that because my SO didn't bring it to their attention and I'm sure they would have fixed it if we told them. Service was very friendly. They kept checking on us and were very polite. The outside of the restaurant is unassuming in a strip mall but the inside is pretty. There are some other Persian places that we prefer but the tahdig and the service and the juiciness of the meat were great here. The hummus was not our favorite though which to us is a big component that we like to eat. 4/5.

The Iranian food is excellent from this cafe.

This is one of my favorite restaurants!…read more My company usually host one of their board meetings here. They have a private room for parties and we typically utilize that room for the meetings. The restaurant is beautifully adorned with cultural art throughout. The booths also have embroidery from the region as well. Every dish is absolutely delicious! They also label gluten free, vegetarian and whether it contains nuts. If you have other food allergies or sensitivities, they can cater to it as well. Appetizer recommendations: Kashk E Bademjan and Hummus - rich creamy dip that goes perfectly with their complimentary homemade naan, herbs, radish and cheese. Sumptuous rice: Sweet- shirin pollow and javaher pllow Savory- sabzi pollow if you prefer more of the herb flavors Entrees: Lamb shank - the meat falls off the bone and it's delicious over a bed of rice. Beef Soltani - well-seasoned and tender. They serve it with a side of tomatoes, onions, jalapeño pepper and basmati rice. I always substitute the regular basmati rice with a sumptuous rice. Chenjah - i ordered the chicken and it was very well seasoned. The chicken was not dry and it also came with a side of tomato, onions, jalapeño and basmati rice (substitute it for the sumptuous rice and thank me later haha). Desserts: Pistachio ice cream is my favorite Baklava is rich, heavy and delicious Baklava cake is sweet but lighter than the baklava. Cheesecake is your typical.

It looks like a full service restaurant, but it's not. My husband walked up to the cashier's counter, expecting the order. The cashier pointed him to the other dining area. It was just placed on top of the food case, no counter. Someone verified it was our order before he took it. I'm short and if I were picking up a bowl of their lentil soup and can't see if the soup is level, there could be a spill. The lamb shank was good, but we had to ask for the sauce that normally comes with it. She brought it. The butter was melted, so dripped over the rice easily. I guess it was too much to ask that the bread plate include feta cheese like at other Persian restaurants. I don't recommend coming in late as the bread was very hard. Dipping it in the sauce helped.
