Cafe Shiraz

Made my first visit due to a recommendation from a neighbor.  The salmon kebabs were amazing and I already know when I return, that is what I will again be ordering.  If a person can judge food by looks, the Greek salad carried past our table looked amazing.  Friday and Saturday they have live music and the bar was beautiful.  Service was decent and the menu was limited.  The owner was just charming and friendly.  I thought the décor was a little dark but I will definitely be back. Thanks neighbor!

Cafe Shiraz is a middle eastern kabob house and wine bar that looks like a saloon. The antique wood bar is a work of art. everything on the menu is excellent.The kubideh is my favorite. It is juicy and has that perfect grilled burger like char on the outside. You can smell the dish before it even arrives at the table. Order it with the saffron rice. The bread and side sauces are great. One is spicy green sauce and the other is a yogurt cucumber. Five stars when they get beer on tap and the espresso machine back working. Lots of really good wine.

In a word: mediocre.  From service to food to ambience to the dining experience - mediocre.  Look elsewhere for good Persian food.
