Not worth it
While the decor appeared elegant and drew us in, the food was unimpressive. Kitchen's culinary skills didn't live up to decor. Our entrees were bland and overcooked. Saffron chicken was dry and flavorless. Basmati rice with almonds and orange was also boring, flavorless and dry. Yogurt with cucumber was mediocre at best. The entire meal was forgettable except for the price which was pricy! Service was attentive but couldn't make up for a disappointing meal. Not worth it.

Good Food, Excellent Service
We were in the mood for Persian food and found this place to have good reviews. We were not disappointed as the food was very good and the service attentive.

just okay
I was the first in a party of six to arrive and they did not have our reservation. Fortunately there was plenty of space during midweek for dinner. We shared a tasting menu of appetizers. Nothing spectacular here. I actually didn't like the hummus (which I usually love) and found the tabouli had too much onion. I'm vegetarian and had the khorest gaimeh badamjan with orange/almond rice. While the flavor of the gaimeh was nice the peas were undercooked and the vegetables were not identifiable and mushy. The rice was quite pleasant. Overall we had a nice time but I don't think the food was worth the price.

Great!
I've been here a few times and I have never had a bad meal. I love persian food, I've been to a number of different restaurants but I think persepolis is delicious. The filet mignon barg is great and in terms of appetizers, the eggplant/yogurt dip is a must, as well as the shirazi salad. Service was great!

Persian Food?
Decent food, but by no means authentic. The ghormeh sabzi had a strange sweet afterflavor, and the ghaimeh honestly tasted like an asian dish. The doogh is about the only thing on the menu that tastes remotely authentic. All in all, its pretty sad that a city this big is still lacking a quality persian restaurant.
