TL:DR - Delicious food, awesome folks, family business!
Had been meaning to try this place out stopping in briefly last month to check out the menu, but not ordering anything. Sure glad I came back! The food is delicious, and prepared with love by Ali and his family. The menu has a wide variety of Mediterranean food, so you can get everything you'd like! They also do custom requests (and catering!) if you'd like something specially prepared for you.
First and foremost, the "famous" pumpkin bread pudding was absolutely amazing. Fortunately they serve it all year round! It was great cold, warmed up, and from the fridge the next day. The savory pumpkin and just-right-amount of spices pair perfectly with the rich, sweet bread pudding. Do not miss out on this one! And eat dessert first!
At my sis' recommendation, I tried the stuffed grape leaf wrap - and it was delicious. It had all the things a tiny stuffed grape leaf would have in it, with extra tasty ingredients, in the convenience and size of a full wrap! There is a reason that we ordered three of them, and they were gone in a blink!
The moussaka was a little light on the bechamel layer, but otherwise wonderful. The ground meat, sauce, and cheese were great with the layers of eggplant. Slightly different than the traditional Greek style I'm used to, but definitely tasty.
The cold eggplant and tomato salad is a terrific side for any food from Caspian Grille. It's perfectly pickled, freshly made, and you can get as large a size to fit your hunger. An interesting new taste that I will get again next time.
All in all, go here, and try out these...
Read moreRecently I hosted a Nowrouz (Persian New Year) party and had my food catered from the Caspian Grille. The owner Ali (real name Fereydoon) is a true gentleman and very easy to get along with, so much so that I almost didn't want to leave as I was having so much fun chatting with him! Most importantly, the food was excellent. I ordered: Fesenjan (chicken stewed in walnuts and pomegranate); shirin polo (rice with raisins, orange zest and other deliciousness); kebabs; and several appetizers and salads. Everything was delicious and I would absolutely go back there again if I were looking to have an event catered or even just to grab a bite to eat. For all of the above (8 large platters portioned for 15 with plenty of leftovers) I paid $265 which I felt was reasonable. They also carry a small but decent selection of ME and Persian groceries that are difficult to find elsewhere such. Would definitely recommend checking...
Read moreToday, my husband and I stopped at Caspian Grille for the first time. We are retired and alway looking for good healthy food to eat. I bought tuna salad and cucumber salad and a bag of pita bread. My husband bought seafood salad. The tuna salad with the cucumber salad together inside the pita bread is the best I have ever had. The bread was nice and thin and delicious. My husband said, that for all the times that we have ever been in the shopping center, we had never gone in this restaurant. What caught his eye was the sign out front that said, "healthy foods". It is so hard to find food that is healthy for you. He ordered the seafood salad and ate it in pita bread with the cucumber salad and he says that it was absolutely delicious. Our desert was pumpkin bread pudding. It was unbelievably delicious!! We are definetly going back to the Caspian Grille. Joe and Anna...
