Beautiful venue with excellent service.
Unfortunately the food let's the place down.
The food looked great and authentic but, It was very under seasoned and salted.
For the price you're paying, you'd be better off trying another local Persian/Mediterranean restaurant.

Very fancy looking when your first walk in! And there’s a step and repeat in the front of the restaurant.
Really feels like you’re somewhere fancy haha.
There was some live music playing.
It was gentle and not super noticeable.
Just a guy with his guitar🎸! The waitress was super sweet.
The food was great.
Tried the borani appetizer which was eggplant 🍆 but it didn’t even taste like it, which was great.
I don’t like eggplant haha.
The main plates are pretty big.
I shared the naderi 🍗🍖with a friend and it was more than enough for the both of us.
Taste was great.
I do wish there was a tiny bit more rice 🍚 and tomato 🍅 but the flavor is great regardless.
A little pricy if you’re not splitting the food though.
But I enjoyed the experience overall!

Darya Persian Restaurant in Orange County offers a dining experience that is generally commendable, catering to those who appreciate authentic Persian cuisine.
The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Barg and Chicken Kabob, both of which were cooked to perfection, offering a symphony of flavors that delighted the palate.
However, it's worth noting that the Koobideh Kabob fell short of expectations.
Traditionally known for its tenderness and juiciness, the Koobideh served during my visit was unfortunately not up to the mark in these aspects, and its taste diverged from the traditional flavor profile one would anticipate.
Despite this, the overall experience at Darya Persian Restaurant was positive, making it a worthy destination for enthusiasts of Persian cuisine in Orange County.
