Saffron Grill

EXCELLENT FOOD

The foods had a home-cooked taste.

Super fire❤️‍

Excellent food quality and flavor. I love this place. Expect your food to take long because they are grilling it from scratch. The older gentleman is a sweetheart. This will be my go to place whenever I am in town.

Fesenjoon and ghorme sabzi were perfect! Parking: Plenty of parking

This isn't your garden-variety "Mediterranean" or "Middle Eastern" restaurant. Sure, you can order your kabob or falafel, but this is really an authentic Persian restaurant. Now, Persian cuisine is not like Arab cuisine (unlike what unfortunately too many people in America seem to think, Persians aren't Arabs...) It has its distinctive flavors and uses spices that are often different than those used in other Middle Eastern cuisines. I'm definitely a fan, and I'm telling you that while there are hundreds of "generic" Middle Eastern restaurants in Orange Co., finding a Persian restaurant just isn't as easy. This is very much a "mom&pop" place, where the food is prepared with love and pride. And it won't disappoint you. In fact, it's quite spectacular. I suggest you try the Borani and the Tadig as appetizers. The former is mashed eggplants cooked with grilled onions, mint, and whey. Fantastic flavor! The latter is crispy rice from the bottom of the rice pot, plain or accompanied by a delicious chicken stew. As for entrees, you can't really go wrong with anything on the menu. The service was extremely corteous and reasonably fast (it's not a fast food restaurant, so don't expect your order to be served after 3 minutes...) Prices are very reasonable. The "lunch specials" are probably the best deals. Highly recommended.

Delicious and fresh food. Cozy location. Friendly service. I'll definitely be coming back!

Amazing local restaurant, I had the chance to have a very genuine conversations with the owners. This place deserves to be known by the whole neighborhood. I will be back soon.
