Medley for Two
Irene Z.

I'm so glad I found Seven, finally a Persian restaurant close to Jersey City that's genuinely good. I ordered takeout and was blown away by the quality. The steak was extremely tender and seasoned perfectly, the chicken was soft with amazing flavor, and the kebab was just delightful. The pickle rice is honestly my favorite part of the meal, bright, flavorful, and something you don't find everywhere. I got the medley for two for around $54, and the portion was more than enough. Everything arrived fresh and still tasted incredible. Definitely a place I'll be returning to regularly.

Bakhtiari (~$34 on UberEats)
Aya E.

Ordered: Chicken Soltani (~$24 on UberEats): one chicken kabob and one beef koobideh with half saffron basmati rice & half shirazi salad with grilled tomato and lime Bakhtiari (~$34 on UberEats): one chicken kabob and one beef kabob with half saffron basmati rice & half shirazi salad with grilled tomato and lime Aya's take: Being Middle Eastern myself and having had my fair share of Persian food, I was not impressed with Seven Valleys (3.5/5 is a more accurate rating) but considering the lack of options/competition in Hoboken and North Jersey in general, it's decent and does the job. For the price, it felt like the portion could have been better. The saffron basmati rice was also overcooked and not as fragrant or aromatic as I'm used to. It was very buttery and went well with the meats. The meats were the best part of this. The Chicken Soltani & Bakhtiari are both great options if you're looking for variety of meats. The chicken kabob was great but had no sumac on it which is practically unheard of in Persian cuisine. The beef kabob was super tender but they were more like strips not chunks, which again isn't very traditional. The beef koobideh was well-seasoned, slightly dry, but still decent. It was very filling and tasted like home but don't expect to be blown away by any means.

Stopped in here for lunch one random day. Seven Valleys had been on my list for quite sometime. The space is small, quiet and serene. They had a pretty decent lunch special for $13.95 which was your choice of a kebob with rice and shirazi salad. I got the chicken and I added an appetizer of Masto Khiar which is the yogurt. The food was excellent. It was a pretty good lunch portion though I could have used one more piece of chicken. The rice was fantastic. The rice was fluffy and flavorful. The chicken was moist and tender. I did not care for the bread too much but I also prefer to eat the yogurt with my meal. The server was very friendly but it was a pretty slow service. It had a chill vibe in there so I was not expecting a fast paced meal. Just keep in mind that it might be slow when eating on your lunch break.I will certainly be back for dinner very soon.

Ordered takeout. Delicious food! but the portion size is rather small compared to other restaurants. I would order again.

Baklava
Suchi O.

Small quaint place, quick & attentive service and fresh, good food -- just the right combination required for late Saturday lunch! We had Kale Salad with chicken, Veg kebab platter and their bread with cherry jam. Food was tasty. We both loved the cherry jam with cardamon. My veg platter was almost perfect, just lacking some sauce to tie it together. Oh and the best part....you can buy a $2.00 piece of real good baklava to satisfy the sweet tooth without causing a dent in the diet :) Definitely try this place out. Dont remember if it is BYOB.....if it is next time carrying a bottle for the meal!

Appetizer, forgot the name, but it's the one made from eggplants.

2nd time here and was with a group. Food was delicious and staff were friendly. The chicken chunks were big yet very tender and juicy, not dry at all. Just the skewers are a bit pricey (~$15 per skewer).

Persian Hot Tea
Emma M.

Best Dolma's we've ever had!! Food was exceptional and service was great. Ambience was wonderful as well. The lamb shank stood out and fell right off the bone! Will be coming back here.

Baklava (comes with 4 pieces, already ate 2 before this picture)
Anna H.

I went to Seven Valleys on a weekday to try out their lunch special with two friends. I got the beef kabob with a side of hummus, and they got the chicken kabob, one with a side of baklava and the other with a side of hummus. The beef kabob was okay - I really wish I got the chicken kabob because it looked more flavorful and filling than the beef. They both enjoyed their chicken kabob, and one spoke highly of the baklava, so I decided to order it for dessert. There's actually four pieces of baklava for the dessert, but I had already eaten two before the picture was taken because it was so good! The lunch special is really a great deal, only $13.95 for the whole plate and definitely worth it. The restaurant itself is small (like a city restaurant) but cute ambiance, and it was pretty full for a weekday lunch crowd.

I placed on order through Yelp/Grubhub over 2 hours ago!!! Tried calling the restaurant twice and no one picked up. This is HORRIBLE customer service!

Medley for Two
Sarah V.

Decided to come here on a random weekday since we were in the area. Spot is on the smaller side and we asked to sit outside to enjoy the beginning of spring. Good vibes. We ordered the Medley for Two along with two appetizers (hummus and Potato Tadhig with chicken stew). My husband really liked the hummus and bread and even asked for seconds on the bread. My husband got the cherry soda and I got an iced tea for refreshments. They were busy so food came a little more spaced out, but I'm okay with it because the food was really yummy. Would like to come again for their brunch. Appropriate for a dinner with you partner or besties.

Chicken Soltani Kabab
Mel T.

Finally got to try this place for takeout (which I would recommend because there isn't that much seating). I ordered the Chicken Soltani (one skewer of chicken kebab, one skewer of koobideh kebab, served with rice or Shirazi salad and grilled tomato). I'm trying to cut back on carbs so I opted for the salad only, but I liked that they give you the option of doing half rice and half salad. The salad was only okay - it was a bit oily. It's pretty much like a Shepherd's salad. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two, if any. Both of the kebabs were amazing. The meat was tender and flavorful - especially the chicken. Don't let the looks fool you because it looks like it could be dry but it's actually the complete opposite. Can't wait to go all out next time and try some of their specialty rices!

Beef kebab, rice, cucumber salad, pistachio baklava
Mike H.

Got the beef kebab lunch special with rice, cucumber salad, and mini baklava. The portion was just enough rather than heaping. The beef was good but could've been chewier and more flavorful. Overall the meal was healthy but not incredibly exciting. The baklava was dense and sweet and was the best I've had.

Tahdig with ghorme sabzi
Neda M.

Having eaten persian food all my life, I feel entitled to a certain level of expertise on the matter, and with that said, I am happy to report to you dear yelpers, that Seven Valleys, is one of the best! On a cold January evening we were warmly greeted by the staff and sat Indoors. It is a charming little place, dimly lit and inviting. We started with a divine plate of Kashk Baden jan, a warm pureed eggplant dish with a bit of whey and fried onions. Though small on the portion size, the ratio of eggplant to fried mint was just perfect. Served with a few slices of what looked like crusty barbari bread, our appetites opened for the next dish: tahdig with ghorme sabzi on top. Tahdig is a crispy bottom of an oily pot of rice. The golden red color was just right, though the flavor of the oil was too overpowering. However, once the green stew - ghormeh sabzi- was placed on top, it dominated. This stew truly was everything! Tangy, earthy and so absolutely perfect. For the main dish: Grilled salmon with zereshk and dill rice, buttery fluffy concoctions both, served with a side of salad shirazi that was neither too tart nor too bland. Hoboken is about 30 minutes from midtown manhattan by car, and parking is not easy. And yet, having experienced this wonderful meal, we wowed that parking difficulties be damned! - we will be returning again. Perhaps next time, to enjoy their outdoors seating. Merci Seven Valleys!

They had a menu of curated salads and bowls but you also had the ability to create your own. Everything looked and smelled very fresh and the restaurant itself looked bright, fun and eclectic. The service was very friendly and we were assisted and guided promptly. There were so many interesting sounding menu items so it was a struggle in deciding what to order! I ended up opting for the burrito chipotle bowl as the sound of jackfruit and guacamole together just sounded amazing! The food was prepared quickly and we were able to find a table as there were ample ones available. The seating was comfortable and we indulged in our food. I loved how well seasoned everything was in my dish and the spiced beans, rice, jackfruit and guacamole all melded together quite nicely. I left feeling uplifted and my family also thoroughly enjoyed their meals, with my cousin raving about the superb texture of her falafel. We got some cookies to go and those ended up being nice and soft and indulgent and not overly sweet. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want a restaurant that is healthy and conveniently located to many great NYC sites! I love how there's something for everyone too!

A Hidden Gem That Completely Changed My Perspective on Vegan Food…read more Yesterday was my first visit to Le Botaniste, and I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. The storefront and fresh drinks first caught my attention, so I thought it was mostly a juice or beverage spot. The moment I walked inside, I realized it was so much more. The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere, and everything looked incredibly fresh. You can immediately tell they take pride in the quality of their food. The highlight of our visit was the exceptional customer service from Alan. He welcomed us with a smile, took the time to explain the menu, answered all of our questions, and gave us recommendations based on what we were looking for. His knowledge and enthusiasm made choosing our meals easy. Alan recommended their most popular bowl, the Pasta Bolognese, and mentioned it was also his personal favorite. After just one bite, I understood why. It was rich, hearty, full of flavor, and if no one had told me it was vegan, I never would have guessed. It has officially become one of my favorite plant-based meals. For my mother, Alan recommended the seasonal Mediterranean Bowl, and it was another excellent choice. I asked her if she enjoyed it, and her response was simple: "Yes... and I want more." That pretty much says it all. The drinks were also fresh, refreshing, and paired perfectly with our meals. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with anything on their drink menu. Even if you're not vegan, don't let that stop you from trying this place. Le Botaniste proves that plant-based food can be comforting, satisfying, and packed with incredible flavor. A huge thank you to Alan for making our first visit such a memorable one. Great food is important, but great hospitality makes people want to come back. Needless to say, I'll definitely be back to work my way through the rest of the menu.

Their chicken parm sub goes down in history as the best vegan chicken parm sub, and I will stand by that. My daughter cannot get enough of their BBQ buffalo wings.

It is a tiny, cozy spot where you might be sitting right next to other diners, and it feels like one big family. The heart of this place is undeniable. The owner, Jade, has poured her blood, sweat, and tears into Red Bamboo, but also an incredible amount of love and care. You can feel it the moment you walk in.

After reading some reviews on Yelp, I recommended Red Bamboo and a couple of other places and let them pick and they were really excited after reading the menu, so on a rainy Monday, my husband and I met them here for dinner and we're glad we did! The place is small so the tables are intimate but that adds to the ambiance. Our server was super friendly and professional and helped explain the menu to us. We got a variety of appetizers including coconut "chicken", spring rolls and fried zucchini slices (my fave). For my entree, I just ordered an appetizer portion of the "chicken" satay. Everything tasted really good! I don't eat at a lot of vegan places so I'm not clear on whether or not people who are vegan like eating things that are designed to mimic meat so that made for an odd sensation of eating something that was similar in taste and texture to a meat dish. Once I got out of my head, I was just able to enjoy everything for what it was....good tasting food served well in a comfortable restaurant. Even if you're not vegan, I think you'd enjoy this place. I definitely would like to go back.
