The only thing that stood out at Negeen was the service which was friendly and attentive.The staff gave me space in paying instead of standing next to me peeking at the tip amount.It showed respect and trust.And I Iiked that. Yet the food was average and fell out of my expectation.For someone who knows how to make kebab right, I can tell you authentic Persian kebabs don't require baking soda, but both of their chicken koobideh and beef koobideh were puffed up with baking soda, an unnecessary step led to divergence of the original taste of only beef, onion, salt and black pepper combined. Chicken thigh joojeh kebab tasted sour for being marinated in lemon juice for too long, leaving the reverse effect of being stiff.I've had store-bought kebabs that tasted much better than Negeen's. Ambience was nice but I wouldn't come back just for it.
Had take out with Barg and Chicken Kabobs which were delicious. The chicken was specially tender and juicy with nice Saffron flavor. They gave us plenty of rice for 2! The order also came w some Lavash (Persian flat bread), Somak, onions and some veggies. We plan to be to back for that Chicken again. *********** updated review **** 4 of us stopped by last Sunday. As usual the food is great but it took 55 minutes to get our food! Our guess is that the kitchen is too small for the amount of seats the place has! Make sure you have 2 hours to kill if you attempt to dine in vs the takeout which also takes a decent 30 minutes! ***************************
I've lived a stone's throw away for three years and finally got the chance to try this place.The ground chicken kabab is really good, and so is the kashk-e-bademjan.A little on the pricey side but you get what you pay for.Would make a great date night spot.And it didn't hurt that the lady who took my order was a doll; she could've gotten me to order a house.
