Still the best flavored chicken in SoCal. Visited the Pasadena restaurant, the Persian flavored flair doesn’t disappoint you. Whenever I need to have a good appetite for chicken I always have to stop by to taste their delicious chicken when visiting Pasadena or Glendale.
One of the best mediterranean restaurants i've tried in SoCal. We ordered whole chicken, Shish, Lule, and Chicken Tarna. All of which were good too good for its value. There's plenty of parking space, but there isn't much room for dine in.
My first time at the Pasadena Location and I love it! Everything tasted amazing ????! The cucumber salad they have is better than the one in Montebello. I will start coming to this location instead.
