    Wow wow wow!! This is my first time coming to this Persian restaurant and let me tell you .. this is the best Kebab I have tried in WA. The portion of the food is really good .. it's so fresh, tasty and well done. İ got the Soltani plater and I'm in love. İ also recommend their mixed appetizers plate .. and of course you need to try the Saffron ice cream!! I'll definitely go back 🥰 .. absolutely recommend it!

    Hands down, the best kabab in WA! We were pleasantly surprised with the quality of food and great service. The kabab barg is juicy and tender and melts in mouth. The chicken kabab was so flavorful. And the best part is fluffy rice. Overall King's Choice grill mix is highly recommended, affordable and more than enough for 2. Can't wait to go back!

    TL:DR - As Taco Bell is to Mexican this is to Mediterranean. Decent hummus and falafel but everything outside of those is a rather resounding disappointment. Everything is served with cost savings in mind and is definitely too expensive. Plenty of pre-shredded lettuce and two olives. I will go in basically any direction for 10 minutes and find better. Even at the bottom of the lake.

    Delicious food. I was full but couldn't stop eating. The appetizer itself was already a good meal.

    Food is always delicious, traditional Persian food. Lots of spices and freshly made. Persian tea is my fav❤️❤️ highly recommend this cute little spot of lunch or dinner with friends or family! We had hummus with pita, koobideh, koobideh with chicken!

    The beef kebab was well marinated so they were tasty. The lamb shank was tender (you can easily cut the meat with your fork) and the tomato based stew were delicious.

    Went here for a lunch with a family. We ordered a king platter and extra kebob on side. It was served with 2 rice plates. The rice were fresh and delicious. Our server was really friendly and helped us with some recommendations too. Frankly speaking it's been years since I truly have had these delicious kebabs. I am so glad we came here. We also tried their Greek style fries but some improvements can be made with maybe some meet on the fries. I still enjoyed it. We also given on house a delicious baklava. Everything well done. I highly recommend this place to all.

    Really nice restaurant. Very yummy authentic Persian food. The grilled plate was superb and chicken tenderloins for kids were very soft and juicy. The soltani and waziri and kobideh were all awesome. They have a big side and a rice plate with each dish. It was more than one could finish. The service was timely and hospitable. I like it overall.

    The Koobideh is so delicious! The meat is flavorful and juicy. I love that their rice is moist too! The tomato also added a nice extra layer of flavor for the rice. Highly recommend!

    This is a great Persian restaurant. The food is great and the prices are reasonable. The service was also fantastic. The restaurant is very cozy. I went there for a late lunch and only few people were there but it will get a little bit busy for dinner time. You can also call them for take out. I recommend this place 💯 percent.

    Unless you somehow count Persian food in the Mediterranean food group, the name of establishment is misleading, but the food is amazing. The quality of meat is great, their kababs, chicken, lamb chops are all great. My favorite dish is Fessenjood, just the right amount of sweetness.

    I recommend this spot to anyone! It was so delicious and you are given such large portions, you will not leave the place hungry. The service itself deserves 5 stars as they were quick, kind, and on top of everything. Overall, I had a great experience today and I can't wait to go back

    Decent food. Quick service. Some of the dishes were good. But we didn't like most of the vegeterian and vegan items we tried. The falafel didn't feel fresh and seemed reheated. The pita bread was not light or soft. I didn't try any meat dishes though. Maybe those are better.

    Great food! We get the chicken kebabs and they are always cooked perfectly. Not dry like a lot of other places. They usually include a whole cooked tomato with the kebabs, but we request they hold it. Great food, great service, quick, and one of our "go-to places for take out.

    We liked our Soltani and Vaziri Kabaabs😋 But, Rice and Koobide Kabaab could be better!

    One of the best meals I've had recently. Enjoyed the lunch special gyros plate; food was amazing - even the hummus, usually bland to me - was flavorful! The service was fast, friendly & efficient - really cannot recommend them highly enough!
