Came here for lunch with our bosses and co-workers. I was told this has the best Persian food, and it didn't disappoint. I tried everything they ordered, and everything was definitely made with love. The chicken kebobs were my favorite. The service here is A1. They are very attentive and kind. The atmosphere is relaxed and perfect for any occasion. It's a must try.

Got the Soltani here. The koobideh was juicy and tasty. The Barg was done perfectly with expected charred taste. The tahdig with ghorme sabzi was great as well. The location is on the main strip and the ambiance was great with an all white facade. The place does need a good renovation and restoration. Will come again.

I’ve been here a few times and when I’m in Danta Monica on business trip me and colleagues always have lunch here. Very authentic middle eastern food. This time I had the Beef Koubideh (always good) but before I had the chicken kabob which is always juicy. Can’t go wrong with this place.

Darya Restaurant exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The ambiance is a perfect blend of sophistication and warmth, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The menu offers a diverse selection of meticulously crafted dishes, each bursting with extraordinary flavors and made with top-notch ingredients.
The service was impeccable – prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable. The staff's passion for customer satisfaction truly enhanced the overall dining experience.
Whether it's a casual lunch or a special occasion, Darya Restaurant is a versatile choice. The pricing is justified for the exceptional quality of food, service, and ambiance, making it a worthwhile investment for a memorable dining experience.
I highly recommend Darya restaurant or those seeking a culinary journey beyond the ordinary. It's a gem that promises a delightful gastronomic adventure.

We’ve dined at other Darya restaurant locations, however this one takes the cake. Although the location and the exterior of the restaurant don’t look impressive, once you walk in, things look much better. This spacious restaurant offers, large portions, delicious kabobs, Persian long grain rice with saffron and so many other delicious dishes. We loved everything we ordered as well as their Shirazi salad (small chopped Persian cucumbers, tomatoes and onions with lemon juice, olive oil and herbs.

It is hard to describe how wonderful this place is. I’ve been coming here for years, starting way back in the 90’s. Delicious food, gracious staff, and pleasant atmosphere make this Persian restaurant a must go to place - can’t recommend it enough.

Fresh, flavorful food, paired with friendly service. The only item I didn’t love was the iced tea (a little flavorless), but everything else about this place was wonderful. Highly recommend!

As an experienced home cook, this is the best Persian food I've eaten in a restaurant. Every dish including the meat, chicken, grilled vegetables, rice, sauces, lavash....were perfection. Wait staff courteous and attentive, Tea refilled often. Order extra dishes to take home, you won't be disappointed.

Another great night with family having amazing dinner. A big shoot out to our server, thank you for the quick service today. We had a great time. Food was the BOM! And I love your tea.
Excellent food, great customer service.

As an Iranian, I can attest that you can get the same delicious food that you’d get in Iran at this place.
Unfortunately most Iranian restaurants in LA are pretty mediocre at best and definitely Darya stands out.
The meat is fresh and tender, the rice is just perfect and I’d highly recommend their Tahdig appetizer as well.
The staff is friendly and professional, and shoutout to our Latino waiter who put the effort to learn Farsi to communicate with us.

One of the best persian restaurants in LA County. You will enjoy the quality of meat. Although the restaurant interior is a bit outdated, it can definitely bring you some nostalgia. Overall our top choice for persian kebab. There is plenty of free parking at the back

Last Sunday 3 is us came here for Lunch. We had Filet Kabob with White Rice and Fish on Bagala Polo. Both dishes were tasty and tender. The sad part was the row of homeless living in their tents behind the restaurant!

Good food, acceptable service and accessible location. Darya salad is exceptional, fresh and a mix of awesome ingredients. Chelokabab is ok and the Albaloo polo is very good. Inside is a bit washed out and could use a bit of update.

I had my first real Persian restaurant food. I was quite impressed with how the Baghali Polo lamb shank came out. The meat was so tender and juicy. I loved the basmati rice topped with saffron, lima beans, and sumac; it tasted so good with the flatbread. I had a piece of the chicken too; it was good, but the lamb was much better. The Shirazi Persian salad was good too. I had my order for delivery. The portion sizes were pretty decent where I got 3 meals out of it. I cannot wait to try different items on the menu next time.

Best Persian restaurant ever! The food never fails and is delicious. I love the juicy chicken, but the meats are amazing, too.
Our favorite waiter is Pedro. He gives the best recommendations and the best care!! Ask for him!! He will make sure you have a great breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

We mostly order takeout but we do it almost weekly. Something for everyone here and the food is incredible. I’ve only been to the actual restaurant once but it’s very cute inside and the staff is all very friendly and helpful. But seriously…this food is unreal. My whole office is obsessed with the cherry rice. A staple in our rotation.
