This restaurant has a horrible service. The food is awful. As a guest, you have to go to kitchen and get anything you need. Make it worst there is a cover charge on Saturdays and Fridays, it is not like mehrdad place is a high class place!!!!!!!! Â Music and the hookah are the only good things about this place.
Review Source:We were looking for an alternative to the higher-priced Persian cabarets, like Cabaret Tehran or even Safir. They jacked up their cover charges on Valentine's day weekend. So I found this online. It was very casual and homey, without the stuffiness of the other clubs. As in most Persian clubs, dress code for women runs full spectrum. Designer jeans with heels, dressy suits on the older ladies, lots of bling and sparkle. You can never be too overdressed or blinged out among Persian ladies! But you can dress down, too, as long as you are chic...No problem making the Sat. night minimum of $15 per person, 2 drinks will get you close to it. Not too much hookah inside to bother a non-smoker. The crowd was older, good for me at 50 years old, fit right in. Singer/owner Mehrdad did a good job entertaining us with older Persian standards as well as newer pop tunes. Great people watching as everyone was dancing like they were at their cousin's wedding. Not everyone gets dinner, mostly drinking their minimums, but we had the kashk-e bademjan, eggplant dip, and it was good. Will definitely come back again.
Review Source:If you like Persian music and you like to dance, this is the place to be. We usually come here late-- music starts about 10:00.
It's best to eat before coming, because the food isn't that great. But there's a $15 per person minimum, which covers about 2 drinks each. We just order a few drinks, or tea and dessert, Â and maybe a hookah. That's enough to sustain us through a few hours of dancing. Compared to the prices at other Middle Eastern live music venues, the $15 minimum is reasonable.
The clientele is almost entirely Persian, and tends to be 30+. Service can be very slow, and no, they aren't ignoring you just because you aren't Persian. They're just a bit understaffed. After midnight, when the fancy Persian cabarets close, the singers and musicians often come here for an impromptu jam session. The owner of this place, Mehrdad, is the primary singer/keyboardist, and his voice is excellent.
By the way, they are cool about customers bringing in birthday cakes. But if you're coming with a large group, be sure to make reservations.
By far the worst experience at a hookah Bar... If you are not a regular here do not bother on coming, you will not be noticed. ALL of the staff speak NO ENGLISH. This place doesn't get somewhat busy until after 10:30 ish, and the crowd is definately 40+ ... it may look OK from the outside but customer service is absolutely disappointing. Do not waste time and money. Good thing Sol y Luna is literally right next door....
Review Source:This place used to have terrible service but since last week It has gone under new management and the place has sharpened up with their service I advice for all of you who haven't gone back because of the service to go and check it out because it really is different. on Thursdays they have a young crowd with live DJ and specials like $5 shots $5 beers $10 hookahs and $5 refills. and the crowd is any where from 24-34 year olds.
Review Source:After hours Lounge with live music Fri, Saturday. The owner Mehrdad who's also a singer as he performed too. Food really good if your plans are to eat otherwise $10 cover charge...
Extremely crowded and the place is hot, very hot.. best to seat by the door area...just not enough air inside this place. Â Overall this place is a cool hangout to chill.......if no other options are available.
if there was a rating lower than one star, this place would get it. worst service i've ever recieved (or alck there of) in my life. i felt insulted to even be there, cheap enviroment, horrible service, employees all haev attitude. we ordered drinks and it took an hour and a half for them to bring over any sort of beverage (including water) and i feel the only reason they brought it is because we got up to leave at that point. save yourself a slap in the face and some uber cheap food by not going here.
