We opted for their three-course menu during restaurant week, and we were pleasantly surprised by the generous portions! I selected the Alaskan King Salmon, while my partner chose the lamb. Despite the dishes being good, we found our meats slightly dry, especially the salmon. The lamb, ordered medium, arrived more towards medium-well. A friend who joined us ordered the filet, and she thoroughly enjoyed hers, praising its excellent seasoning and deliciousness. However, she also ordered medium, and it turned out more like medium-well. My suggestion is to order medium-rare if you prefer medium. All three of us indulged in desserts, which were not only beautiful but also delectable. The cake portions are sizable and perfect for sharing. We dined indoors, and the decor was pleasing, neat, and clean. Despite the minor issues, we look forward to returning to explore more of their menu offerings.

Visited this place with a group of friends before heading to the Balboa Theater, and it turned out to be a fantastic surprise! We opted for a large order of tadig with various toppings, and it was absolutely delicious. The food came out quickly, which was perfect for our pre-show plans. Enjoyed a few espresso martinis before heading off to our show.

Superior good quality and service and large food portions. Loved chicken Kebab, Koobideh, and Barg. Beautiful restaurant. I hoped they put the 20% tip on costumer decision not already included on the receipt. Overall, great taste!

Love, love, love Bandar! Great for date night or group dinners. Food is amazing, even my picky kids loved it. Decor is delightful, service is awesome, and the food! It's also walking distance to the Civic Center Theater if you want to grab a bite before a show.

The pesto hummus is fantastic. Famous chicken also incredible. And to finish, the fadooleh (Persian ice cream) is absolutely amazing. The rose water is a bit strong at first but give it a couple bites and be sure to squeeze on plenty of lime.

One of the best Koobideh (ground beef kabob) dishes I’ve ever had! Very succulent and juicy. Wonderful service, and atmosphere. Super classy and a wonderful fine dinning choice.

Such delicious, freshly made food with amazing flavors. This is a place where you want to take your time to enjoy the meal. The portions are large making it perfect for sharing among friends/family. And the service was impeccable — not too many places have service like this anymore. Can’t wait to go back!

The restaurant is nicely decorated, and the lighting is great. This is our go-to whenever we are in San Diego. We had the beef, chicken, koobideh, and the group appetizer. We tried the Bandar cabernet sauvignon, which was ok. Our server, Gota, was really sweet.
