NOTES
- The atmosphere is very pleasant, friendly, and comfortable.
- Well-aerated and bright, with lots of natural light.
- Lunchtime is busy here, but not crazy.
- The portions are huge! Our dishes could be shared between 2 or maybe even 3 people.
- Everything is perfectly seasoned — I (Miko) wouldn’t have added salt or pepper to anything. The meat is tender and juicy. The beef reminds me a little of breakfast sausage in texture. It’s all delicious!

Hi Jenne, Miko! Really dig this place.
The tadig at Balboa Int'l might be better (more buttery) but crispy burnt rice is always good! 🙂

Ooh, I'll have to try theirs! Tahdig is one of my favorite things in life.

Unfortunately, this place went out of business however, a couple of the cooks opened up a new Iranian place in the Black Mountain Indian/Hindu district. http://www.grillhousecafe.com/?tmpl=unsupported
