Roksana's Persian Food Saved Our Graduation Celebration…read more I cannot thank Roksana's Persian Food enough. After another restaurant (Caspian Persian Cuisine) unexpectedly cancelled our graduation event catering at the last minute, we were left scrambling just hours before a gathering of 40 people. It was a stressful situation, and we honestly weren't sure how we were going to pull it off. Then we found Roksana's. Despite the extremely short notice, they immediately understood the urgency, stepped up, and delivered. The entire order was prepared on time, complete, and exactly what we needed. They even threw in a few extras, which was an incredibly thoughtful gesture during an already chaotic day. And the food? Absolutely incredible! Every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Our guests loved it, and several people asked where the food came from. What could have been a disaster turned into a memorable celebration thanks to their professionalism, generosity, and outstanding food. It's easy to provide good service when everything goes according to plan. It's much harder to rise to the occasion when someone needs help at the last minute. Roksana's did exactly that. We are immensely appreciative and grateful. They didn't just cater our event. They saved it. Highly recommended, and we will absolutely be back.

This place is only take-out. The people on the staff are hospitable. I have been to this place…read moretwice. Twice we had the beef koobideh and twice we were left unimpressed. The koobideh was more eggy than it was beefy. It almost felt like that there was barely any beef in the koobideh. The second time we also had beef soltany, to give another item a try. This item was alright. You could taste the pomegranate molasses in the soltany. While the flavor was pleasant, I was expecting more char from the kebab (especially from the sugars in the pomegranate molasses) and for the meat to be more tender, after the staff hyped up this particular item. I also don't think that the price of $29 for this item was justified.

Let me just say... what a great choice! I was also told that their bread comes from LaSalle Bakery, which immediately had me excited because I LOVE LaSalle Bakery. And the bread definitely did not disappoint. It was fresh, delicious, and made the entire sandwich even better. This is NOT your average deli. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and you could tell there was a lot of care put into the sandwich. I normally have a pretty good stopping point and would probably only eat half of a sandwich like this, but it was so good that I literally couldn't stop myself. I ate the entire thing! I am officially stuffed now, lol, but it was 100% worth it. The Atomic was absolutely delicious, the bread was amazing, and the whole experience exceeded my expectations for my first visit.

The prices here are steep, it's a big reason as to why I don't shop here often. It's a shame because I would love to support an Armenian business.

What if the chef was just having a flawless hair day the first time? Well, we risked it. We went back. And let me tell you, it was a bloody brilliant decision. Here is why Chop Kabab is currently holding my tastebuds hostage: The Lamb Kubideh: Absolutely scrumptious. It was so tender, juicy, and perfectly spiced that I'm pretty sure it bypassed my stomach and went straight to my soul. If "Lamb Ki-ideh" isn't its official name yet, they need to update the menu immediately because this dish is the key idea of a perfect meal. The Salad Shirazi: Crisp, tangy, and genuinely out of this eprld (and this world, too). It is the ultimate refreshing palate cleanser bright enough to make you feel incredibly healthy, which is great, because it justifies ordering twice as much meat. The Verdict If you are in Westborough and haven't eaten here yet, I don't know what you are doing with your life. Go get some kabab. 10/10. Will absolutely be back for Round 3.

Experience or training does not always change a person's initial reflex to certain situations…read more After all these years of food travels, or being immersed deeply in the culinary industry, I still often feel this immediate hesitance (or doubt) when entering an empty establishment. It doesn't matter that previous "walk/drive-bys" have seen fully seated tables. It's always in that moment of walking in and wondering if something had happened that I may just have missed. As per usual, I drift to the first comfortable spot, take a deep breath, and realign my thoughts as to why I was even there. Right. I'm hungry and I've been wanting to check out this spot since the very first night I drove by it months ago when exploring the area after the move. Two guys - two very different demeanors. One very friendly and welcoming (thank you). The other...well, uncomfortable (thank you too). I won't deliberate too much on it as the very Asian thing to say is...the food is what really matters. ***What a long-winded way to start this review but so much passed through my mind from the moment I got there, to ordering, and to getting my food. I lost track of time but the quietness there allowed me to recollect myself from another harsh culinary week to remember what mattered most.*** First bite in the every last bit, my eyes somewhat rolled out of their sockets. I don't know what it is. It wasn't perfect but it was good. There were places for correction but easily overlooked. So many unnecessary words to flow out but blocked by more bits of food shoveled in. Let this be what I choose to remember this place: I'm going to eat your whole menu, over time, several, several times over just because it's that darn good. Really moist and flavorful chicken. Really moist and flavorful beef koobideh and kebabs. Gosh, I seriously need more...and I shall. Thank you and see you soon.

They do a unique, fusion-y variety of small plates that are great to share with friends and family. Service is wonderful. Their menu often changes, but there are a few things that are consistent. Their infamous black sea cornbread deserves all the hype. The avocado muhammara is excellent and creamy, paired well with the burrata. Love their harissa barbecue duck skewer. The fried chicken that comes around during the night is also solid. Other dishes that I love that I'm not sure are year-round: Asian pear salad, scallop crisp, and lentil nachos. I think Sarma can be a bit inconsistent at times. I've had very salty brussels sprouts and pastitsio before.

Located just a 20 min from Marblehead, we arrived to a quiet restaurant, where we were on the late-ish side, arriving at 7:30 and they close at 8:30pm. The owner and a colleague were waiting on everyone and the owner was cooking, too. We ordered: - Homemade falafel (incredible!) $9 - Masto-Khiar: Creamy rich yogurt blended with fresh cucumber and mint, $9 - Beef Barg: Two skewers of ground beef combined with onion, and house seasoning - served with grilled tomatoes and rice, $26 - Shirazi Salad: Fresh diced cucumber, tomato & onion in a juicy lemon-mint dressing with olive oil -- served with warm pita bread, $9 - The evening's special was lamb shank served with roasted root vegetables (a huge portion!) $35 - A traditional yogurt beverage (just to experiment - it was slightly salty and interesting) - Doogh $5 - A glass of white wine $13 - Freshly made baklava $4 (perfect as a great small dessert finale) --- Total $128.48 with tax ($117 food/bev, $11.48 tax) We were warmly attended to by the owner, 'Bejan' / 'Bijan' (?) - the 'j' is pronounced like a 'zh' - like in 'bijou.' He and his wife - and their 2 children moved to the USA many years ago to create a better life. They opened this restaurant (decorated by their daughter) in honor of their late son, Sina, who was tragically lost to random gun violence in 2017 - in Lynn MA. Their son was studying to be a pilot and was working as a pizza delivery driver when the random violence took his life. Truly heartbreaking. Sina was just 24 years old.

Persian Restaurant / New Ownership & Chef After almost eleven years living in Little Rhody, this Persian is excited about this new restaurant. Their kabobs are amazingly tender and their saffron rice beats any Persian auntie's. The restaurant just opened (December 2021) and not every item is available at all times, so definitely call ahead if there is a very specific item you cannot live without. I look forward to seeing this place grow and expand. It is currently cash only. read more

Excellent food and service. This restaurant serves Persian Food under new ownership. Their kabobs are the best. They are much better than the Persian Restaurants in the Boston area.

They're located on that last stretch of Smith St before you cross over in North Providence. I always manage to find street parking in the front but there's more around the corner as well. Imad was in there cranking out a HUGE catering order! There were covered pans everywhere, ready and waiting for the client to come and pick up. But that didn't stop Imad from taking a moment to shake my hand and ask how I was doing lately. I didn't want to take up much of his time as his Friday night was just kicking off but he is genuinely a warm and friendly person, you can't help but smile when he smiles. I took home a Pesty Chicken, house pesto with turkey bacon, onions and chicken, plus a hefty slice of his gorgeous baklava. After my 5 minute drive home I got to it immediately. The pesto is herbaceous, salty from the Parmesan. The turkey bacon is not what you find Butterball making but rather, this was of a much higher quality and was an actual piece of sliced meat instead of a formed amalgamation of ground turkey. All of those ingredients sang while being supported by the incredible crust. I don't quite know how to describe it. It's light, fluffy, but crispy. Crunching into the crust scratched a part of my brain I didn't know needed it until I bit into this little slice of heaven! The baklava looked as good as it tasted. Sweet, spiced, and it had this deep flavor I can't quite put my finger on but it's probably top 3 best I've ever had. If you haven't visited Imad and his shop up over on Smith Hill, then you are missing out on a unique and delicious experience. 10/10, great pizza. Great food all around, no matter what you get you'll love it!

Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. I ordered a veggie naan roll and an order of aloo tikki. The aloo tikki was unlike any I've had before, and not in a good way. Instead of being crispy and flavorful, it reminded me of something you would find in the frozen food section of a supermarket. The patties were small, dense, and lacked the texture and seasoning I expect from restaurant-quality aloo tikki. I can't really comment on the veggie naan roll because I was sent a falafel naan roll instead. The roll itself was quite large and came with a side of French fries. Unfortunately, the fries tasted as though they had been fried in the same oil as fish, which made them unappetizing. The falafel roll was also very dry. I ended up pouring the sauces that came with the aloo tikki onto the roll just to make it palatable. While the portions were generous, the food quality and order accuracy left a lot to be desired. As much as I love Indian cuisine, there are far better options in the surrounding area. Sadly, this was a one-time visit for me, and I will not be ordering again.
