They start you off with noon, walnuts, cheese, and butter, and offer refills as well. Every dish I've tried here has been flavorful and satisfying. After my first visit, I couldn't resist coming back the next day for more! The atmosphere is cozy and beautiful, with natural flowers throughout the restaurant. The servers are friendly and attentive, and the cooks in the kitchen are excellent. The food comes out quickly, fresh, and warm. There's also a cafe attached to the restaurant with delicious pastries; I tried the tiramisu and it was amazing! Even if you've never tried Persian food before, I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try.

The food tastes like it’s been made at home with love. The Baklava was so delicious that it nearly brought me to tears. I think the chef must have some kind of magic! I do add a bit of salt to suit my personal taste, but it’s probably healthier without it. Absolutely blessed to have discovered this place. I've been here twice so far—once in person and once through Uber Eats. It’s a great find for North Austin and truly the highlight of my day!

It feels quite unfair and misleading for the owners to treat customers this way. I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Much more better than all luxury Iranian restaurants in east and west coast. Nice environment and wonderful staff. Congrats to the manager. Amir from Dallas
