I recently had the absolute pleasure of dining at Sadaf Restaurant, and I can confidently say it was the best dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, who made us feel like part of the family. The service was exceptional — genuine, attentive, and full of warmth. It really added a personal touch to the entire evening. We ordered a variety of dishes, including Dolmeh, Shirazi Salad, Chicken Shish Kabob, Filet Shish Kabob, Skewers of Tomatoes, and Adas Polo. Every single item was bursting with flavor, but the chicken shish kabob stood out — it was the most tender and juicy chicken I’ve ever had. The filet and vegetables were perfectly grilled with rich, smoky flavor, and the rice was light, fluffy, and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was just as impressive as the food. The space is elegantly designed and beautifully maintained, creating a relaxed, upscale environment perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. I was so blown away by the experience that as soon as I left, I texted all my friends to tell them about it — I even shared photos of the dishes! I’ve already recommended both the Encino and Beverly Hills locations and will definitely be returning soon. If you’re looking for authentic Persian cuisine, warm hospitality, and an unforgettable dining experience — The Best Kebobs in the WORLD! Sadaf Restaurant is the place to go. Look no further for the best Dianne experience in all of California and the world! My new favorite restaurant

My family and I recently had the pleasure of dining at Sadaf Restaurant, and what stood out to me most beyond the delicious food and warm atmosphere was the exceptional service. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with genuine hospitality that immediately set the tone for the remainder of our visit. Iman waited our table who was very attentive but without being intrusive, always checking in at the right time, offering thoughtful suggestions from the menu, and ensuring that every detail of our experience was perfect. It’s rare these days to find a team so dedicated to making guests feel welcome, and it left a lasting impression. I genuinely enjoyed and appreciated the friendly and approachable attitude of Iman. It really felt like a true Iranian hospitality. The food was also excellent! We will certainly be back.

Sadaf Restaurant is absolutely fantastic! The Persian food was incredible — rich flavors, generous portions, and beautifully seasoned dishes. The staff were warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. You can truly feel the hospitality and care they put into every detail. Will definitely come back!

One of the top Persian restaurants in LA area. Parking is difficult sometimes and may need to valet. For more contents, follow our instagram @gemislist

First time having Persian food. It was absolutely wonderful. The demeanor of our server seemed a bit brash and lacked hospitality; but I could be misunderstanding a cultural norm (I'm from the South). I will return, the Zereshk Polo (Persian Barberry Rice With Chicken) was amazing! Very large portions!! Pricing was reasonable.

I was on a business trip to LA and my usually go to restaurant was out of the way so I decided to try Sadaf. Very pleasantly surprised. Meat was very tender and juicy. Service was exceptional. Prices were very fair. This will now be my default stop every time I head to LA. Highly recommend! A+++++

Rewised,, we went to eat tonight and the service has gotten worse, servers disappeared and took what seemed to be hours to place our order. Original,, We ordered the sadaf #2 special, filet mignon, chicken kabob and koobide, paid $3 extra to get the lentils rice and came with a normal salad. The filet was juicy and cooked to perfection, same for the boneless chicken, the koobide which was ground chicken meat was my 5 year old favorite. Portion was just enough for two, just to get comfortably full, I took out one star because we waited to long to place our order. Overall we loved this place, it gives you the Neverending feeling of satisfaction of scrumptious tasty food you deserve to eat.
