The place was very clean and had such a great vibe. Our waitress, Neda joon, was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout the whole experience. Definitely enjoyed our time here! read more

Had lunch there today. We both ordered chicken kabob sandwiches, with a side order of salad and fries. Although we had to wait quite a while for our meal, it was absolutely delicious with competent service. The waiter informed us that everything was made fresh, which was why we had to wait so long. It was a lot of food and we both ended up taking half our sandwich home. Also, the dhoug (cold yogurt drink) was perfect. We looked at the surrounding tables and everything looked wonderful. This is a restaurant to return to. Some other reviewers were complaining about the cost of parking. There is a city lot just one block south on the west side of the street that is free for two hours and is open until 11 p.m. read more

I was very much looking forward to a lovely meal. Very disappointing to say the least- Koobideh was hard, tough, and no seasoning unfortunately. The rice was perfectly made. House dough was tasteless and watery without any ice so imagine that. Do better Sadaf. You have potential. read more

Great experience here. Servers were quite nice and the koobideh was juicy and boneless chicken had a good char, yet still very tender. Raffi's is the closest comparison I can compare to and it competes very well + no wait when I went! read more

Terrible customer service - we waited for 30 minutes for a food order they didn't prepare. Wasted our time despite us telling them we were in a time crunch - they said they aren't busy and they could accommodate us. Stay Away!! read more

Enjoyed outstanding Persian cuisine in a welcoming and accommodating atmosphere. We were seated outdoors which felt like a private dining experience. We started with shared appetizers of delicious hummus, eggplant, dolmeh and a yogurt cucumber sauce. For dinner my partner and I shared a scrumptious Sadaf combination #3 which included succulent and uniquely marinated rack of lamb ribs, juicy and flavorful chicken and steak. We highly recommend the Sadaf salad as an upgrade for a small price which includes dates, olives, fresh walnuts and feta. Wine available by the glass and bottle. The Persian ice cream with pistachio and rose water was a divine close to our evening. Some limited street parking available and a lot next to the restaurant. read more

I have been going to Sadaf for many years . Neda the manager stands out with her beautiful smile and she is so friendly. There is also Tina and Aiyman that always give the best service. The must things to try here are the juicy chicken and the barg. The best Persian food in Los Angeles hands down. read more

Amazing restaurant! Very much personalized service, specifically Neda our server. Excellent food! I will definitely refer my friends and family to Sadaf. read more

I am so glad I found this place! For so long I was limited to the Persian restaurants on Westwood blvd - this place is a hidden gem. Space is not too large / not too small. Great food, really speedy service- and the servers were super nice and attentive. I will 100% be back I think this is going to be my new go to for Persian cuisine :) parking in the back is wonderful too- thank you! read more

Went back for the lunch experience. The chicken was not as amazing as the first time. I still like their salad. The chicken lunch special including tip was about $32. It was a large portion. The service was challenging. Our server would forget things and appeared to be distracted. He was on his phone most of the time. It's a charming restaurant but service today was a miss. The food was still pretty good not great. read more

We were here for lunch. The food was delicious, the environment, the service was very welcoming. We will definitely come back

I would recommend this restaurant. The service is excellent. I order their salmon dish every time and never a disappointment.

Fresh cooked meals, wide menu variety, & a great service. This place is good. Only reason it lost stars is because i've have better Persian food before. But I still really enjoyed my food. I ordered the combination 3 stews which comes with fesenjun, ghormesabzi, & one other bean stew that I forgot the name of. It was pretty good. Fesenjun is my favorite persian food but I've have better ones many times. The meat inside it wasn't very tender. read more

Fantastic Persian food that's prepared better and clearly, better quality than 95% of other Persian restaurants throughout LA. Service is equally fantastic! I tried it once and now am a weekly regular there with my wife. read more

I'm not too familiar with Persian food, but after dining here last weekend I'd definitely like to try more! This restaurant is cozy, chic, and the customer service was excellent!! Below is what we tried: Hummus - 4 1/2 Stars. This tahini hummus was the perfect consistency and rich in flavor. Definitely get this was a side of pita to scoop it up with, though would have been better if the pita was warm. One order is a portion big enough for 4 people. Juicy Chicken - 5 stars! Cooked perfectly, the name does it justice -- this was juicy, rich in flavor and delicious. Beet Salad - 4 stars. The beets were good, could have used a bit more feta and walnuts. (Personal preference) Plain Tahdig - 3 1/2 stars. My buddy liked this, I thought it tasted a bit stale. This is basically crispy rice that pairs well with stews. Combination of 3 Stews - 5 stars. This was excellent! Each stew was robust and rich in flavor and excellent with rice or the leftover pita from the hummus. I unfortunately can't tell you what all the stews were, but I want them again! All in all, this is a solid spot for classic Persian dishes in an intimate environment. read more

There is no greater joy than a restaurant achieving what it has promised and Sadaf did just that during my visit. I ordered the Juicy Chicken but little did I know I'd be served the juiciest, and perfectly flavored chicken breast I've had in my life. To make matters even more impressive, the Shirazi Salad was fresh, bright, and I took the liberty of dipping the last bits of my chicken in the citrusy juice--what an absolute treat. Visit them for your next professional meeting, date, or catch-up with your best friend. It's a classy space with a super attentive staff, and at a shockingly reasonable price for BH. Enjoy! read more

Sadaf Restaurant - Juicy Chicken + Shirazi Salad - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

SADAF was a pleasant surprise -- the food was delicious, and the service inside the restaurant was genuinely great. I ordered the rack of lamb, which was flavorful and cooked just right. My goddaughter ordered the chicken shish kebab sandwich, and she thoroughly enjoyed it. For appetizers, we ordered the shrimp mushrooms -- and while I can't eat shrimp, I was able to enjoy the mushrooms, which were very good on their own. Everything I ordered was well prepared, and the staff made me feel welcome from start to finish. It's always refreshing when the kitchen and the service are both doing what they're supposed to do. Now, parking... that's where the experience took a turn. Like many restaurants in the area, parking is challenging, and unfortunately the parking attendant was rude, which set an unnecessary tone before I even made it inside. Thankfully, once seated, the food and service made up for it. I'd definitely return for the meal -- just prepared for the parking situation going in. read more

Holy sh... This place is amazing! Funny thing I recently ate at a spot I thought was my #1, but this might just be better. The place looks both fancy and cozy. We came here after my theater performance to celebrate, and it did not disappoint. We ordered the juicy chicken it was drenched in marinade and incredibly tender, savory, and perfectly salted. We also got the koobideh kabob, which was just as juicy and full of flavor. The sautéed mushrooms were a nice surprise too really tasty! Even the tea was served in a super cozy and stylish way. The staff were kind and professional. Highly recommend! PS:Forgot to add the hummus was Delicious!!! read more

Wow. Unreal. Yes, I'm the American who knows Persian food. Why? Persian food fan from waayyyy back. Plus, I've been with a Persian woman for 11+ years. Thus, I'm practically Persian. Now, let me preface it that I've been to 2 other locations of Sadaf, both Woodland Hills and Thousand Oaks. But this fairly new location wowed me. Cute and modern, a single room creates a different experience than the others. Service was super nice, a team served us, all great. But the food was unbelievably good. The gf and I shared a "Eggplant Delight" (aka "Kashk bademjan") was super delish heightened by fried garlic atop. Then, the king Juicy Chicken was from beyond, grilled to perfection with a slight char, and served with fluffy rice, grilled tomato, onion, and green pepper. MMMMmmmmm...mmmmm! I can eat this all day, every day. Kudos to all involved, and to those who haven't been, go already. read more

It was truly delicious! The staff were so friendly and helpful. When we wanted to take a group picture they offered right away. We had reservations but needed to add another person last minute and they were so quick to accommodate! Food was perfect, meat was fresh and tender. The food didn't feel heavy like sometimes Persian food does. Such a cute location. Thank you we will be back! read more

We needed an early dinner spot so we happened on this place. It's a pleasant street-facing dining room with a few outdoor tables on a busy street. The waiter helped us parse a slightly confusing menu (many options, choices, combinations, and substitutions available) We ended up with tahdig, a rice with cherries, some chicken fessenjun, a spiced ground chicken and beef kebab combo, and several salads. The tahdig was a little too greasy and didn't have enough stuff with it (it should have been served with more other stuff or the waiter should have warned us it needed other stuff). It was served alone as an appetizer. Maybe it would have been better with all the other food. The cherry rice was tasty and the chicken was good, although I've had better fessenjun elsewhere. (Not that I'm an expert, I just know what I prefer) Kebabs were super juicy and flavorful. Great seasoning and right off the fire. Portion size was a little small. Salads were good and very fresh. Our waiter was knowledgeable and very patient with us noobs. So overall it was a good value and a tasty meal. Nothing was knock-your-socks-off, but it's a solid meal. read more

Sadaf BH: Food and service are second to none. Ayman and entire team were amazing hosts. They even hooked me up with espresso to go without even asking for it. Service is unreal. Thank u all. read more

Small cozy restaurant on the border of Beverly Hills , the setting is cute and the staff is very friendly. I ordered the salmon kabob it was delicious. Salmon cooked well lightly seasoned and the rice was cooked perfectly with a buttery herb flavor. The price was good 32 bucks for the salmon kabob. read more

Best Persian food in LA. Everything is fresh, cooked to perfection, and delicious. 10/10

Came here to say with a group of friends for the first time and I loved my time from the second I walked in! The service was amazing and so nice and felt so welcomed which is not so common in restaurants these days! And the food was 10/10 I got the beef shish kabob and like an appetizer platter to start and the eggplant was sooo good. Our server was Ayman and everyone else working were so attentive and nice!! Thank you so much can't wait to come again!! read more

HORRIBLE Experience!!!!just a few days ago, ordered a koobideh from that restaurant, and I told them to make it well done. Not only did they not make it well done, but when I got the food and brought it home, when we opened it, an absolutely disgusting smell hit us. We were really about to throw up. And we looked, and we thought, wow, not only did they not make it well done, but it wasn't even like meat. It was really some white thing. My husband said, "What kind of meat is this? Is it chicken or what is this meat? It wasn't meat at all!!! it was pale. And the smell was so disgusting, and the appearance was so horrible that we just threw it out right there. We were feeling so sick, about to throw up from seeing the food and the bad smell of the meat. I have no idea what they used in that meat. It smelled so bad. And honestly, I don't recommend it to anyone at all. I mean, I love koobideh. And after this, I've fallen out of love with it. I don't want to eat koobideh anymore. I felt so sick. And also honestly the price was so high for this garbage food that you have to pay for. read more

Absolute gem! Very authentic, and I know good Persian cuisine! Excellent quality starters, amazing, juicy, well marinated chicken and very tender beef! Chicken is their specialty and certainly the king of the table - polo! We had four different polo with our chicken and beef and all was very delicious, non-fatty and excellent made! Finally the desert was ice cream with rose water and saffron - was absolutely amazing! Definitely coming back and highly recommend to everyone!!! read more

Great tasting food, all the appetizers and kabobs are delicious, great staff and service, nice ambiance. Highly recommended

New location. Our server, Farshid recommended the eggplant appetizer which was quite flavorful. Excellent suggestion. The beef koobideh was superb and my partner had the chicken which was equally good. Celebrated with a Brut Rose champagne. And they even sang Happy Birthday to our birthday girl. Thank you for your attentive care, Farshid. read more

I've been coming here for YEARS! The staff is kind, the food is yummy and the environment is good. The reason I gave it four stars is because the prices have almost doubled, and in certain parts of the restaurant, it can get very very loud because the space is so wide open that if you're trying to have a conversation with someone, you almost have to talk extremely loud to hear each other. read more

This restaurant is the best Persian food restaurant in all of Los Angeles. The food is very tasty and fresh.

I definitely recommend the place. Try it. You won't go anywhere else. read more
