Persian Top Meal won us over on our first visit. We were genuinely impressed by the warm hospitality and the standout quality, juicy kebabs with fragrant saffron rice, grilled perfectly. We went back on Sunday for dizi, rich and comforting, and decided this is our go-to kebab spot. Portions are generous, prices fair, and service is upbeat. Quick takeout, too. If you’re craving high-quality Persian food with very welcoming vibes, put this place on your list, you’ll leave happy and full!
Such a great family-owned spot! The kabobs are always juicy and full of flavor, and everything tastes fresh and homemade. The owners are super friendly and make you feel welcome every time. Generous portions and really good Persian food. Definitely a place I keep coming back to.
The food is very good considering the price. The lady who manages the restaurant was very respectful and welcoming, and she showed us how they cook the kebabs. They offered free small soup bowls. We ordered kebabs. The food was very tasty and reminded us of restaurants in Iran. The atmosphere was casual, and the tea had a lovely aroma. The salad dressing was not enough.
One of the best Dizi experiences I’ve ever had! I tried this dizi today and I was genuinely impressed. The dish was incredibly rich, flavorful, and perfectly slow-cooked—exactly what you expect from traditional Persian cuisine, but done even better than many well-known restaurants. The meat was tender and juicy, the beans were cooked just right, and the top layer of oil showed how well the stew had settled and developed its flavor. The portion of fresh, warm flatbread served on the side was generous and paired perfectly with the dish. The sides were amazing as well: fresh herbs, sweet white onions, pickled vegetables, yogurt, lemon, and hot pepper—everything was fresh, colorful, and added a perfect balance to the meal. The presentation was clean and professional, the portion size was generous, and the overall experience felt absolutely worth it. Honestly, this is one of those meals where you walk out thinking, “That was money well spent—I’m definitely coming back.” If you’re looking for a truly delicious and authentic Persian dizi, this place is an outstanding choice. 🍲🫓❤️
tried countless Persian restaurants across the city, and this is truly the one that stands out. They have a secret to their kitchen that makes their kebab unbeatable—it is hands-down the best I have ever had. MUST READ DINING TIPS • Dine-In Only: Their secret is best enjoyed fresh. I strongly advise against getting takeout or delivery for the kebab; you have to experience it right here. • Trust Me, Skip the Rice: For the ultimate experience, pair the kebab with only the bread found underneath it. It's the intended way to eat it, and you honestly won't need the rice. Beyond the Kebab Even their other dishes shine. The Ghormeh Sabzi is rich, flavorful, and genuinely tastes like comfort food cooked at home. Their Masto Mosir is perfect—not too garlicky, which is a huge plus if you have plans after dinner! Finally, the staff here is wonderful. The customer service is warm, friendly, and you truly feel well taken care of, like you're part of the family. A fantastic, high-quality experience all around.
Congratulation!
