Overpriced for what you get and taste is average to below average depending on the dish!I wish it was better because I like to support local restaurants. Unfortunately, they just aren’t producing the best quality Persian food that they should be since they are Persian! Another issue is like other reviewers posted, they charge extra for drink refills as well as every little thing. And the rice is very abundant—way too much.Tabouli tasted strongly of onion and nothing else. Had a ton of chopped green onion and otherwise flavorless. Meats were ok, some quite salty.Maust' Moosier and Maust' Khiar were tasty as was the hummus.Service was good. The place is small but accommodates a good number of people and it’s fairly quiet. There’s a small bar and outside patio; a large wine list, and yummy Persian ice cream.It might be best to try it at lunch—perhaps you’d get a taste for less $$ and decide for yourself.
This place is a hidden local gem. First time trying Persian food and was blown away. Service was incredible, view was nice, food was amazing. Main dishes were SO good, we forgot to snap photos. Would highly recommend and will be returning!!
This hidden gem of a restaurant is close to our house and until just recently we hadn’t visited it. Since “finding” this restaurant my wife, myself and some of our friends have now visited numerous times. The family that runs Pars are very friendly and helpful and they will walk you through the Persian dishes. We always start with the Hummus, Quinoa Tabouli and Dolmeh, super fresh and interesting flavours. If you have a group then you can add the Tah Dig with Gheimeh, Ghormeh & Fessenjan to start with. The Lamb Shanks are delicious as are the Gyros and the Zeresk Polo with Chicken. For a main you must try the Pars Special, for $48 you get enough food to feed an army, and it’s perfectly cooked. We even did a takeaway one evening and the presentation and food were very good, we still prefer to eat there though. Lovely people and excellent food make this a must.
I ordered (to go) 2 skewers of kabob with rice and a salad and side of dolma (which by the way was not home made, it was the ones from the can food aisle) paid $50 which is ridiculously expensive even for Scottsdale!! And the food wasn’t all that to be honest! I’ve had better Persian/Arabic food, better flavors. So if you want to pay close to $50 for a plate with a Salad go there my friends! I’m disappointed! Won’t go back! And the restaurant is not even fancy! It’s a box in Scottsdale! Good luck!
First time trying Persian food and I was very impressed! The staff was very helpful and friendly! Recommended!!
This unassuming strip mall restaurant was the best restaurant we tried in Scottsdale! In addition to delicious authentic cuisine and personal, attentive service, it was decorated with several museum-quality art pieces. The food was perfectly spiced and beautifully presented; a high end dining experience at a very reasonable price. A gem in the desert!
I've never been so sad to see an empty plate! The food is absolutely fantastic! I will definitely be back as I live across the street from this gem.
Great service and the best food ive had in a long time❤?❤
Loved the food and the atmosphere of Pars. Decided to try something new for our anniversary and was beyond satisfied. Definitely worth the trip from Chandler to try it out.
Absolutely Wonderful!! I am Persian and asked Pars to cater my wedding for 125 people. Massoud's team showed up at the time requested with 12 different hot delicious dishes. They provided the chafing dishes and a team member to replenish the food, we had a serving staff at the venue that provided all the rest. Everything was so easy and went so smoothly. Our guests were raving for days about how great the food was. It is the second large event I have had them cater. Always on time, delicious food and reliable. Highly recommend!
