Pardis Restaurant - Glendale (CA)

4 /5 Rebecca Tsang: Glendale, CA - Great food, ambiance and service. Highly recommend the chicken and lamb chops. Juicy and flavorful. The yogurt and cucumber dip was also very good with the pita. I was hoping there would be more saffron in the rice. The rice was mostly white. Nice restaurant with an upscale feel to it, tablecloth and proper setting. I love how they round tables for easy food sharing. Plenty of parking in their private lot. I liked it but just not sure if the price justified it. The food was delicious but I wouldn’t say it’s anything unique that I couldn’t get in other more affordable Persian restaurants. It was a very nice evening nonetheless with some friends that I haven’t seen for a while!

5 /5 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.

4 /5 Iman Ghazizadeh: I recently ordered takeout from Pardis, and I have to say, their food is simply delightful. I tried the Tachin, a traditional Persian rice dish thats beautifully layered with saffron and yogurt, creating a wonderful crispy crust. Its a comforting and flavorful dish that truly represents Persian cuisine. This first time trying Pardis Tachin and I must say it tasted good, but the look and design could be better! I also ordered the Lamb Shank with baghali polo, which is, in my opinion, their best offering. The lamb was tender and succulent, perfectly paired with the fragrant dill rice and lima beans. However, I must mention that my experience with their takeout service could use some improvement. The staffs attitude towards my order was not very pleasing, which put a damper on the overall experience. Despite this, I will definitely return to Pardis. The quality of their food is too good to overlook, and I’m eager to enjoy the dining experience in-house next time!

1 /5 AB: Yesterday I did order for takeout for six people 2 beef koobide ,2 shish kabob and 2 chicken and I did pay premium price for fresh food but what I’ve got instead was few hours old, warmed up,bone dry ,low quality foods it was awful. The bottom line is if you walk to any corner street kabobery you gone have far superior experience than here don’t waste your time and money. Success must be earned not to be given.
