Audry Doctor I recently had lunch at Pardis restaurant in Glendale, and it was one of the best experiences I’ve had in a while. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt welcoming — cozy lighting, tasteful décor, and a calm, relaxed vibe that set the tone for the evening.
What really stood out was the exceptional service from our server, Amir. He greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. Throughout the day, he checked in at just the right times, offered great menu suggestions, and even remembered small details about our order. It’s rare to find someone who balances professionalism and friendliness so naturally, but Amir did it perfectly.
The food was equally impressive. I ordered the kalepatche (lamb stew) with lemon, butter and onions, and it was cooked to perfection — tender, flaky, and bursting with flavor. The side dishes complemented it beautifully. To finish the meal, I ordered Persian tea, which was a true highlight. It was served beautifully in a glass cup, with the deep amber color that Persian tea is known for. The aroma was soothing — a mix of black tea with subtle floral notes, slightly earthy and comforting. The taste was smooth and robust, not bitter at all, with a gentle hint of rose and cardamom that lingered pleasantly after each sip. It was the perfect way to end the meal — calming, aromatic, and authentic.
Overall, Pardis restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. The food, atmosphere, and especially the outstanding service from Amir made it a five-star experience. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to friends and family.
