Asal Bakery And Kabob

Been coming here for over a decade and every time the service and the food is even better than the last. Truly exceptional authentic Persian cuisine. Very generous portions and great prices. Thank Ata jaan and your wonderful staff for making us feel like home away from home. Bless you all.

BEST Persian food in the 818 valley. Tara was my server today and she was very hospitable and friendly along with the other staff. We got the Chicken Kabob and Shish Kabob and it was sooo tasty and flavorful. I love that Asal's food is very rich in flavor and spices yet not greasy. Sangak bread is exceptional. Great portion sizes too. We will be coming back!! New! More ways to react to reviews.

We ordered the koobideh and tahdig, and unfortunately, both were quite disappointing. The koobideh had an overwhelming taste of turmeric, completely overshadowing the flavor of the meat. The tahdig with ghormeh sabzi and gheimeh was far from the authentic taste we were hoping for. The tahdig, as pictured, it's not a tahdig at all! Both the ghormeh sabzi and gheimeh were more like bland soups with little flavor. The only positive thing was the staff, who were friendly.

A friend brought me here on our way home from Los Angeles. What a treat! This place was an absolute hit! The service was amazing, the food was amazing! I highly recommend this hidden gem. I got the chicken Kebab plate.

The food is amazing! I appreciated that they do not make their stews too oily. The Akbar Joojeh tasted great, but I wish the rice was less oily. The owner is very friendly and attentive. One thing they can improve is their space. The tables are too close to one another and can get crammed. Other than that I loved everything.
