Cafe Vanak

OMG! The Zereshk Polo at Cafe Vanak was the best one I’ve had in my life! This is such a lovely place! Very clean and cozy and the service was amazing too! Not gonna forget the wonderful taste of the Napoleon dessert! 🥰

We searched for a Persian restaurant to dine at while we were staying in Boston and tried Cafe Vanak. The restaurant was very clean, even the restroom. The staff was friendly, courteous, especially Youcef, and went above and beyond to provide the best dinning experience I have had in years if not decades. Having worked in restaurants I could tell the extra steps they performed to make the dinning experience exception, even if they might not be noticable to the average dinner. Then the food was absolutely amazing.

Reminds me my family's cooking. Beautiful food. Wonderful flavors. Friendly staff. We also bought some staples next door. We will see you again.

What a wonderful meal we had! We got the ghormeh sabzi, kashk bademjan, and chicken kebab. All so delicious. The service was great and the staff was very kind. Can’t wait to come back and try more!

Wow the Zereshk Polo at Cafe Vanak was honestly the best I’ve ever had. This place is truly a gem. Everything was spotless, cozy, and welcoming, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. I also have to mention the Napoleon dessert, which was absolutely unforgettable. We were looking for a Persian restaurant while staying in Boston and decided to try Cafe Vanak, and I’m so glad we did. The restaurant was very clean, including the restroom, which always says a lot. The staff was warm, polite, and attentive, especially Youcef, who went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. Having worked in restaurants myself, I could really notice the extra care and attention to detail that made the meal feel special, even in ways some people might not immediately pick up on.
