Great location next to the marina. Large clean restaurant. Food is good and menu is vast. We tried the sultani (chicken kabob with beef koobideh), qabuli pulao, sheer chai and an appetizer (quruti). Everything tastes great, but prices were rather high. Service was a bit on the slower side too and restaurant wasn't even busy.
