Pretty good kabobs. Try the stews (which may be listed under appetizers even though they are really main dishes) like Kashk-e Bedemjan or ghorme sabzi. Their yogurts are really good. My favorite is the rice with barberries and chicken kabob. Flavored rices are the way to go

Good Persian food, good prices, friendly service.  The ambiance was a little lacking during the day but food made up for it, and it is very clean.

This joint has some tasty lamb.  Deezi is this dish that I was recently introduced to here, at Deezi and have never seen it on a menu anywhere else.  I'm not sure if this is a chain off the Campbell location??

They bring out an empty bowl and a metal tall bowl with lamb, tomatoes, herbs, lamb broth, beans, and more.  First you pour the juice out into the empty bowl.  Leave a little in the metal bowl.  Then, you take the pestle and start smooshing away.  The Lamb is so tender, and everything just mashes together.  They bring freshly baked bread out, and you can tear it up into pieces and drop it into the broth in the empty bowl.  Eat it all!! The lamb mixture in the metal bowl and the bread and broth in the other bowl.  Eat it all.  

They also have a terrific chenjeh kabob.  This is not just beef kabob or steak kabob.  Excellent, juicy, well marinated steak kabob.  

The joojeh kabob (chicken kabob) is nice and juicy as well.  Very nicely marinated.  

I definitely recommend you try this place.

EDIT/UPDATE: I've been told by other Deezi-lovers that when they went recently, the owners made some changes and the food was so bad they all walked out...... Had to give fair head's up.  I haven't been, so I can judge.
