User Reviews

recently visited Daryoush and had a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious and the service was top-notch. The menu offered a great selection of dishes, and everything we ordered was prepared to perfection. The atmosphere of the restaurant is very cozy and inviting, with a lovely interior design. The staff were all very friendly and attentive, making sure that our dining experience was enjoyable from start to finish. I highly recommend Daryoush to anyone looking for a great meal in a great environment.

So many options for vegans. I love the khoresh bademjan and get a craving for it once every couple of weeks. Some of the appetizers can be made vegan or with the non-vegan items on the side so definitely ask if you see something interesting. What really elevates this place though is the service. The staff is so great and very attentive while never being over bearing. The tables are small so they are really good at taking away empty plates almost immediately. It seems that the owner and staff really strive to make everyone's experience special.

During our road trip from Napa back to Monterey, we made a pit stop at Daryoush, and it turned out to be a delightful dining experience. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and friendly welcome, and promptly escorted to a table where we were seated immediately. The staff's hospitality left a lasting impression right from the beginning. Once settled, we were handed the menus, and the waiter efficiently took our drink orders. The restaurant offered a diverse selection of beverages, including sodas, yogurt drinks, and other fine options, catering to various tastes. We decided to indulge in the kebab combo, and it was truly a treat for the taste buds. The perfectly grilly kabobs were flavorful and tender, leaving us satisfied and impressed with the quality of the food. What added to the overall ambiance of Daryoush was its charming Middle Eastern decor. The walls adorned with traditional items created an immersive environment, making us feel as though we had been transported to the heart of the Middle East. The attention to detail in the interior design enhanced our dining experience, adding a touch of authenticity to the restaurant's atmosphere. The service throughout our meal was impeccable, with the staff attentively checking in on us without being intrusive. The waitstaff's knowledge and recommendations further enhanced our dining experience, demonstrating their commitment to ensuring customer satisfaction. In conclusion, our visit to Daryoush was a delightful experience. From the warm welcome to the delicious kabob combo and the immersive Middle Eastern ambiance, everything came together to create a memorable dining experience. If you find yourself on a road trip passing through, I highly recommend stopping by Daryoush for a taste of their excellent cuisine and warm hospitality

The food is very tasty and good. It's a persian restaurant. We didn't order beverages.

While the food at this restaurant is exceptional, the overall experience was marred by abysmal customer service and outright rude behavior from the staff. Dining out is not merely about the food; it's also about the experience, and this establishment failed miserably in that regard. I would strongly caution against dining here unless you have an ironclad tolerance for rudeness and poor service. There are plenty of restaurants out there that offer delicious cuisine and treat their patrons with the respect they deserve!

The food is great: well seasoned (although I am not Persian, so I don't know if it is better than standard, but tasted great to me and my company) and a **great** price for what you get (servings are quite large). Service is also great. We came at a fairly slow time, and the service was very fast, servers were very nice. Around or less than 10 minutes wait time. Atmosphere is also great. Had some great music playing, overall a very peaceful, calm place to eat. Totally recommend and would come back given the chance!

That’s great food. We enjoyed having lunch at there. Kids love their food. They ate all food in their plates. Price are reasonable. Every where was clean.

We didn't plan to eat here but what a gem!! We waited about 10 min for a table and the owner (I'm guessing) updated us many times on when our table will be ready and what the plan is and he was pretty much the only waiter but he remembered to take care of all his customers in such a friendly and calm manner! The food was sooo good ! I've never tasted such tender meat before ! My friend got the chicken/eggplant stew and thought the flavor was impeccable with the rice ! We told the owner that we're from out of town, so he was so nice to bring us Persian tea and baklava on the house! And poured us more tea when we were empty! The tea was so flavorful and refreshing and you can tell it's not just tea bags but actual tea leaves that they used to brew it. And the baklava was not too sweet, which is hard to find in my opinions. Baklavas I've had in the past have always been so sweet to the point where my teeth would hurt! But theirs was perfect with the Persian tea! We really enjoyed this last minute decision we made and it was the perfect way to end our get-together!
