Edit: I was born in the same city as your business is named after, and I've had Persian kabob in 6 different provinces in Iran (it's impossible to say how many times), as well as 8 states in the United States.
As a result, I am able to evaluate the quality of the Kabob I purchased from your business. Also, I've never heard of anyone having to ask not to be served bad food. What you gave me looked like Persian kabob, but that's all it was. It didn't taste anything like a good kabob (read the pervious paragraph if you need).
Areas for improvement:
Overcooked and overpriced. Whoever prepared my food did not know how...
Read moreTehroon features a delicious, well-balanced and elegant flavor palate. The kebobs are succulent, the yoghurts a perfect acidic foil to their savoriness. We even enjoy their complementary feta, mint/basil, raw onion and flatbread number.
The service - while friendly - is largely absent and negligent. It does not help that front-of-house is a mixed bag of English-speaking skills; it can be difficult to flag down the right person for assistance. Last time we were here, we were not given water until after the entrees were served. The water was requested at the very beginning (after having already waited 5-10min to take any orders). Our ghormeh sabzi was served not just tepid, but cold -- as if having sat on the plate for the entire half-hour wait it took to receive our courses. This was on an early Saturday evening with a middle volume of patrons. Service was not much more expedient when we were previously the only guests in the room.
Payment is a needless headache, as the front-of-house may inexplicably disappear into the back-of-house for extended lengths. We could not get our limited-English server to take our payment tender early to depart in a timely manner.
It may be advisable not to patronize this restaurant if in a time crunch, as their business conduct does not appear to respect their customers' time. This is a truly unfortunate disadvantage they bring upon themselves, as they might amplify their loyal patronage with even the bare minimum of what could be considered...
Read moreYears ago the old Kebab House used to have excellent koobideh but you'd have to ask yourself if you were willing to put up with the grumpy service before going. When the place first changed hands the service got better but I felt the koobideh wasn't quite as juicy and flavorful as in the old days. A couple weeks ago I noticed the place had a new name and my wife and I decided to go. I don't know if it's still the same owners or not, but if it is they have figured out the koobideh; and I mean they have figured out to make the best koobideh anywhere! The koobidehs sitting on our plates were absolutely massive, plump and juicy looking. I was very doubtful that it would taste as good as it looked (how could it?)...but it did!! It was probably one of the best if not the best koobideh I've ever had (and I've had a lot). My wife agreed. The only suggestion I would have would be to the waitress to come check on the customers once or twice during the meal. She took our order and delivered our food but that was it and I never got a chance to ask for extra onion which I began to crave while eating. Otherwise friendly and welcoming service in stark contrast to the "no soup for you" grumpy old man. 5 stars for a nice friendly atmosphere and some of the best Kebab Koobideh...
