The portion, flavor, and price of each dish was just absolutely amazing.Sophie was sweet and so informative about the Persian culture.Ask for the Friday special.The chicken was very very tender.They gyro was awesome too!
An Iranian friend of mine suggested Persepolis to me, so my wife and I decided to give it a try for lunch today.We started with the hummus appetizer which was amazing.My wife doesn’t normally prefer hummus, but she loved this.For my meal, I had the Koubideh Kabob with rice and a Greek salad.The kabob was great, the salad was fresh, and the rice was surprising very delicious for what looked to be just plain white rice.My wife had the chicken gyro with a Greek salad.She really enjoyed her meal as well.Even my sons chicken tenders and fries were cooked to perfection.The staff was friendly, and the establishment was clean and inviting.We will definitely eat here again.
My wife and I came for lunch.Our first time here.The restaurant feels genuine and it has a casual atmosphere.The service was courteous and quick.There are a good number of items in the menu to choose from.We ordered humus as an appetizer.My wife went for a gyro and I had a dish with steak and marinated chicken (picture).We have visited Iranian restaurants before and I found the seasoning underwhelming across the board in this one.Maybe the gyro was the one with the most lively seasoning.I also found it overpriced, in my opinion, compared to the portion size and the amount of protein that you get.However, you can also make the case that you hardly can find this seasoning anywhere else.In conclusion, if you are feeling adventurous and want to experience something different, Persepolis offers you plenty of options.I'm going to leave the seasoning appreciation up to you.I believe it is worth a try.
