I picked up lunch for christmas for me and my mother. I ordered over the phone, on a busy day. Picked up right on time without any problems, excellent service. Recommend.

Came here as part of a large gathering. Food was served family style so they definitely have the capacity to host receptions of most sizes. Food is quite delicious and I'm a happy girl when koobideh is placed in front of me. The crispy fish was my favorite. Wasn't too salty and the crunch was perfect. Also the tea they serve with dessert is divine. I believe it has a hint of cardamom in it. If you like Sadaf's cardamom tea, you'd probably enjoy this a lot. Ample parking in the back. I just wished they had more accessible options for those who are handicapped. We had someone in our party who uses a cane and it would've been nice to have a spot for her where she didn't have to walk as far. Or maybe they had spots but I just didn't see them?

I have been ordering from Shiraz for years. Food is always amazing including my absolute favorite, their tahdig! if you know, you know. it goes beyond the food for me...it's the love and compassion they show their customers. Management is always kind and goes above and beyond for some of my "quirky" requests. You have a customer for life! thank you thank you thank you -Maggie

I've been going here since I was a kid and the food has stayed delicious through and through. The outside patio is nice and inviting and the inside is modern. A great place for lunch and dinner. The service is amazing as well, every single time the waiters have been attentive and welcoming.

The food was delicious and they have generous serving sizes! The restaurant is cute and makes you feel like you're in Greece (I've never been to Greece)! The service was excellent! Definitely recommend checking this place out

The only photo I got of their food at a party I recently attended here. The fish was the best part of the food here. Nice and crunchy outside and very moist inside. Considering the size of the party, the servers and bar staff were very efficient which made for a great experience. Will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.

Shiraz never disappoints! Came here for a quick lunch while passing thru cause it was recommended. It was a rainy day, but the "outdoor area" is well heated and protected from rain. I ordered quickly and the food came quickly. The soup was really tasty, or I was super hungry. The chicken was sweet and tender, came with all that toppings you need, included. They have a free parking lot behind the store.

Tonight was my very first time dining at Shiraz :) ! And it was for my co-worker's retirement party :D ! It was a truly amazing, heartfelt and fantastic event :) ! Other than the love, laughter and memories that my co-workers shared of our beloved co-worker who officially retired today, the dinner dishes of fish, veggies, rice, and dessert were absolutely delicious :D ! The room was perfectly set up with round tables so we could have lively conversations with our co-workers and also enjoy the wonderful slideshow in honor of our retiring co-worker :) ! I have to admit that I don't know what all of these dishes were called since I would have to ask my co-worker who organized this special event :) ! But I would definitely love to come back for a meal because the ambience was so nice and relaxing :) ! The waiters who served us were really courteous and friendly :) ! And it also really helped that there is a huge parking lot in the back of the restaurant that is just for Shiraz customers :) ! The best way to enter the parking lot is from Harvard Street, and it is located at the corner of Harvard Street and Glendale Blvd, right next to Palace Cleaners.
