The restaurant is appreciated for offering great value, balancing reasonable prices with the downtown Miami location. Customers frequently highlight the friendly and attentive staff, contributing to a welcoming dining experience. The ambiance is described as clean and functional, though some note the casual presentation such as serving food on paper plates, which slightly contrasts with the otherwise satisfying meal quality.

Everytime I travel to new places I almost always try their local Mediterranean places. This place is by far one of the best Mediterranean food I've ever eaten. Prices are reasonable and the place is very clean. Highly recommended.

Incredibly delicious and authentic food! The meat platter and mezze were outstanding, with appetizers served alongside traditional flatbread. The kabob platter was generously portioned, easily feeding four people, and the meat quality was exceptional. Waiting time was minimal, and the prices were very reasonable. The only downside is that food is served on paper plates, making it feel more like a to-go spot. Overall, a fantastic choice for flavorful Mediterranean cuisine! I’ll definitely be back.

Within walking distance from bayfront park, serving tasty kababs. Tried joojeh and kubedeh kababs and both were tasty. Staff were friendly and serving size was OK. Restrooms available inside restaurant.

The staff and the chef were really nice we even got a complementary salad shirazi and mast o khiar. The barg soltani was really delicious and the kubideh was amazing.

Hands down, the best Kabob in town! And one of my favorite restaurants overall. Have tried it several times, and each time the food is better than the previous. The quality of the food and ingredients used are top notch and everything is grilled to perfection. On top of the incredible flavor, the prices are also reasonable, especially given the location in Downtown Miami. If you have not tried their authentic Persian cuisine, I highly recommend you do so asap, you're in for a treat!

We ordered three dishes — kabab, joojeh, and ghorme sabzi — and every single one was absolutely incredible! The flavors were rich and authentic, the meat was perfectly cooked and tender, and the ghorme sabzi had that true homemade taste that’s hard to find. What made the experience even better was the amazing service. The staff were genuinely kind, attentive, and supportive throughout our meal. You could tell they really care about their food and their customers. One of the best dining experiences we've had — highly recommend and definitely coming back. Thank you for a wonderful evening!
