★★★★★ 5.0 Abdullah Alhuzaymi · Dec 2025

Great find in Pittsburgh! The kebabs were tender and flavorful, perfectly grilled with that authentic char. The rice was aromatic, and the portions were generous. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. Loved the mix of Persian and Turkish dishes—definitely coming back! Highly recommended!

Another GREAT food and service experience! A friend took me here and I'm still thanking him! What a wonderful experience. Food was excellent! Service was excellent! It's been a while since I've had really good tabbouleh, hummus, lamb, and fish all at the same place! Fresh pitas, great soup... and a wonderful waitress! We will definitely be back when in Pittsburgh! Thank you for the great experience! 😎👍🏻

★★★★★ 5.0 Monojit Bhattacharjee · Feb 2025

The food is good. Cannot bet on the authenticity of the dishes as the cuisine is new for me but it tastes delicious. The Qabuli Polo which I took was delicious. The lamb piece was juicy, well marinated and cooked thoroughly. I would recommend Non-Vegetarian Indians to give it a try and there are many dishes which vegetarians can try too. The ambiance is family friendly. The staff are well versed in English and extremely polite.

★★★★★ 5.0 Safia · Feb 2025

I had an amazing experience at this Persian restaurant! Every dish was full of rich flavors and perfectly cooked. The kebabs were juicy, the rice was fragrant, and the stews were simply delicious. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was excellent. I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone who loves authentic Persian food!

★★★★★ 5.0 Mitra Saeidi · Sep 2023

I've enjoyed their food a couple of times in the last two weeks, and it was incredibly tasty and delicious. Also, the restaurant's ownership has changed, and now, an Afghan family owns the restaurant. They offer a new variety of Persian and Afghan dishes that I highly recommend trying, especially since we didn't have a Persian or Afghan restaurant here in Pittsburgh for so long. On Friday night (Sep 22, 2023), our large group visited, and it quickly became one of the highlights of our restaurant adventures. They managed all our orders perfectly, and everything was absolutely great. Furthermore, since we were celebrating a birthday, they even played music for us. It was undeniably a special night, and we're definitely planning on returning in the future. Highly recommended! 🤩🤩
