About

Restaurant Shiraz delivers an authentic exploration of Persian culinary traditions through a menu defined by aromatic spices and slow-cooked techniques. The kitchen focuses on charcoal-grilled kababs featuring tender saffron-marinated chicken and seasoned ground meats served alongside mounds of fluffy basmati rice. Diners encounter a selection of herb-heavy stews known as khoresh, which balance tart pomegranate molasses with earthy walnuts and fresh greens. The interior environment emphasizes traditional aesthetics with intricate textures and warm tones that reflect cultural heritage. Every dish relies on fundamental staples like dried limes, turmeric, and legumes to build deep layers of flavor within each recipe. This establishment provides a direct experience of regional cooking styles, showcasing the complexity of classic spice blends paired with freshly baked flatbreads served straight from the oven.

Amazing Persian Culinary Experience! I recently dined at Shiraz restaurant & it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm & inviting, with a beautiful touch of Persian decor that immediately set the mood for an authentic meal. The staff was friendly & happy to provide recommendations, which made us feel very welcome. The food was the true highlight, bursting with flavor & presented beautifully. We started with an assortment of appetizers, kashk-e bademjan (a delicious eggplant dip) that melted in the mouth. For our main course, we Dizzi a traditional Iranian meal that was phenomenal. The meat was perfectly seasoned & tender, & the stew was rich & incredibly satisfying. The portions were generous, making it great value for the quality & taste. If you're looking to explore Persian cuisine or simply want a comforting, flavorful meal, I highly recommend Shiraz restaurant . We'll definitely be back!

I cannot recommend this place. The food was below average, & the service left much to be desired. Just one waitress for the whole restaurant, & it took us a long time to place our orders.

This is a great place that transport you to ancient persia where love & care are pit into every dish. Fresh ingredients succulent grilled marinated meat or slow cooked stews are to die for. The food is presented very nicely & flavors are well balanced. If you never tried Dizi, it is highly recommended. This is meat & potato cooked in a stone container with all the savory condiments on the side. You start with pouring the hot soup into a bowl & enjoy with pieces of bread, like a cereal. Then smash the meat, legumes,, & potato into a delicious mixture. Enjoy!

The Koobideh was fantastic. The chicken kabob was tender despite being breast meat! The miza Ghazemi was excellent.
