Casual Persian restaurant with kebabs and stews, and a relaxing patio on which to enjoy them.

Upon arrival at brothers Reza and Max Kumars’ tucked away Persian café, sit on the shaded patio and linger beside the soothing fountain. Start with pistachio-flecked hummus or kashk-o-bademjan, a fried eggplant dip topped with garlic, mint and yogurt sauce. Fortifying stews and kebabs are the twin cornerstones of Persian cuisine, and chef Kay Vasai deftly prepares both. Fesenjun is a rich walnut and pomegranate stew topped with tender chicken. Juicy kebabs are highlighted by lamb filet and the casing-free ground chicken or beef sausages known as koobideh. There’s even a lamb shank in a tomato, saffron and cinnamon sauce. Entrées come with a bowl of luscious lentil soup. Fluffy basmati rice is also included. To drink, order a unique rose chai latte. No desserts are made in-house, but there are still some interesting options, including pistachio ice cream, and when available, violet chocolate and pandan coconut cupcakes.
