    Chelokababi has become our go to place to bring friends when we want to have a wonderful meal. We’ve never been disappointed with the food and they have the best kabobs in the area. The owner (Marian) is super friendly and generous as she has donated a gift card for the past three years to a church fundraiser that I’m involved with. We love everything about Chelokababi 👍

    One of our favorite Persian restaurants in the country. Love the decor, atmosphere and fabulous service. They serve all of our favorite dishes. Every time we are in the Bay Area we are sure to visit.

    Outstanding food but the restaurant's beautiful Persian ambiance is spoiled by how many tables are squeezed in together making conversation difficult. Our table of four had so many things on the table, there was barely room to put the appetizer plate. Just overall felt so congested with servers running between tables.
