We always loved Hafez for its consistent quality. However, this time we got a totally burnt Kabab Koubideh which was a disappointment. I hope they maintain their nice taste and quality. Other foods were great like always. I especially loved Baghali Polo w/ lamb shank.

Undoubtedly best Persian Torah kebab in the region. Delicious food and super nice staff. Highly recommended.

Great stop. I'm so happy my friend took me here. They food is excellent. I enjoy kabob, and Hafez House doesn't disappoint. I enjoyed the Soltani plate, and added a chicken kabob. The food was so good, I finished the whole plate. Rice was awesome, I wish I ordered an extra beef kubideh. Oh so good, I'll be back.

Definitely is enough to make you full. The beef kubideh was dry and tough. The chicken is good, though. Rice is bland and could have been cooked a little longer. Needed sumac or even just salt would have been good.

The best Persian food in Boston! Will definitely go again

I really miss the old days on weekends with Nasim Khanoum in this place. 5 stars for the food, two taken for the guy behind the counter.

The best iranian restaurant in Boston.

Nice authentic Persian restaurant. Rice was fluffy and onpoint, as well as the yoghurt and kebabs. Cute little cubed sugars for chai tea.

Family run Persian spot in Watertown.Absolutely delicious. I ordered Lamb Kabob which comes with a hefty portion of saffron rice and a grilled tomato. Everything was cooked to perfection. I most certainly will be eating here again. Next time I'll probably get the chicken kabob plate.

Unfortunately there aren’t any good Persian restaurants in the Boston area and I was really hoping this place would be better based on what I had heard. If you are expecting food quality and taste similar to LA/DC area then skip this place.The food lacks any real taste and the service is dependent on the mood of the guy working there.Lastly, prices are way to high for the taste and quality.
