Totally spill proof (thank you owner for taking my thoughts about packaging into consideration). Ordered my usual - and this time it's exactly what was promised. Hardly any bones in my goat curry order. Food is delicious as always (it was never about the flavor, the place has a great cook). Thank you again for being open to customer suggestions when it came to my concerns the last couple of times. I'm glad I came back :)!!

I don't usually partake in Indian food, but I've had my share in SoCal and much more in NorCal near…read moreSan Jose, so I can say that I'm not that unfamiliar with flavor profiles and the cuisine. Normally, I don't meander to this side of Pasadena, but it pays to explore once in awhile. There's street parking, some parking in the back, or if you really need to you can park across the street and walk over. It's pretty busy, even on a weekday at an off hour (between the lunch and dinner rushes). Walking in, despite having 2 floor cooling units, it was SUPER hot and humid. But people were still dining in, so I'm sure they have loyal customers or when the food hankering is that bad, the heat doesn't matter. Most of the food was moved to the back to survive the heat and it seemed like only one person was working at the time, so I had to ring the bell to summon them. Lady was curt, but clear in her explanations of the menu and how long it would take the food to be ready. I got some veggie samosas, but she also recommended that they come with something. I'm not entirely sure what it was, but I agreed since, sure why not. At the end of the day, I couldn't parse through the menu to really get an idea of what it was. Everything was VERY spicy or had a really sour (flavor profile, not that it went bad) taste to it. I enjoy spicy food, but it meant I couldn't really share with my family which sucked. Not that diverse of a flavor profile that I've had at other Indian restaurants before, so that was a bit disappointing. The fried exterior of the samosa was pretty good. The strange mix that came with it was a mix of spicy, sour, and really dry. The sauce that we got was a super tart vinegar kind of grape tasting sauce? Didn't really go great with anything in the order. Maybe what I ordered wasn't the right thing, but my experience was lukewarm at best.

Really good Iranian food! I got the tahdig 1/2 and 1/2 which is crispy rice with different types of…read morecurry on top. Service wasn't the best, as they never check in on you, so you have to flag them down for everything.

So my friend and I went this past weekend, I had been boasting to her about how good the food was,…read moreblah blah, blah for quite some time and we needed to come eat here. Come to find out the food is now actually blah blah blah! The cold super thin pita bread was cold & flavorless and oddly comes with a cold cube of butter, what the heck am I supposed to do with that? It won't melt on a cold piece of pita bread. Then the iceberg salad comes out with two small dressing containers to use; this salad had a lot of "bones" [what the hard white parts of lettuce are called]. At least the cucumbers were crunchy, as well as the 2 pieces of tomatoes. I ordered the Koobideh Combo [Beef & Chicken]; and my friend ordered the Chicken Kabob [white meat]. The lacking of flavor in the Koobideh beef & chicken was unbelievable, I asked for a grilled serrano or jalapeno chili and the waitress said they had ran out. I was 2:00 p.m., what do you mean you ran out? We were looking for something to "save" this blandness of both our dishes; thank gawd they have containers of sumac & salt at the table. The basmati rice was bland as well. The beef koobideh, tasted like plain hamburger meat with minimal seasoning. Bottom line, I didn't finish my dish, I just left most of it. My motto is: "If it's not worth the calories, don't eat it." As for the environment: No music, etc. I really don't mean to bash the place; but you guys need to spruce up the place. My seat at the table was ripped; and the table was dirty when we sat down and asked for it to be cleaned (again?). I wish you nothing but the best in this economy!

Wowww the food here is incredible. Huge portions with fresh ingredients, made with obvious care and…read morereally delicious and elevated flavors. Eveyrthing I got in my order was probably the best version of classic dishes. The amount and variety of veggies per dish was also something I really appreciated! Amongst other things I got the salmon salad which is gorgeous and hard to photo because theres a LOT of salmon in it but it's under all the lovely parsley/veg. Salads can sometimes be a little boring or unsatisfying but I was literally going MM!! with every bite of theirs-- and I could only eat half before getting full, which astonished me because I can eat a lot! Lastly their pickles are SO GOOD. I ordered the pickled veggies not really knowing what they'd be or what amount but again, very substantial portion, great variety of veggies, crunchy, and super tasty brine, and once more, a familiar flavor but with a little something extra that makes it super tasty and special! I am extremely rarely impressed with food enough to leave yelp reviews, but this place deserves all the praise and business!

Today I was thinking of giving this place another chance so I opened yelp and searched "hair" and "bug" in the reviews. I can see that things haven't changed. Wish it could be different so I could eat here! Their food is really good except for the hair and bugs. Wash your lettuce! Wear hairnets! Imagine how it might ruin your entire life to bite into a wrap and get a long hair. That is all.

When I arrived, I scanned my order at the ghost kitchen and it told me my order will be ready at 8:44pm. Then 8:44 comes and I scan my order and it says another 8 minutes. 8:51pm came and my order was still not ready. What's even worse is the parking outside has a limit for 5 minutes. So when the order accuracy is delayed your parked car is at risk of being towed. The people working at the ghost kitchen aren't very helpful either.

I thought the red salsa was incredible as well, really spicy but with good flavor. I wish I would have taken some more home with me. My girlfriend thought it was too spicy though, so be careful. To drink we ordered Abuela's Pink Drink, it was basically strawberry-orchata, which was delicious as well. For dessert we ordered the Aroz con Leche, the amount of sweetness in it was perfect, not exaggeratedly sweet and a perfect amount of cinnamon. I can't wait to return and try other items on their menu, I really want to try the Birria-Ramen, the tamales, tortas and burritos.

I got the chicken Shawarma and now I won't go anywhere else for Mediterranean. I live in Glendale so I've got a lot of Mediterranean restaurants around me; I've been to a handful of them.
