    I would suggest the host be a little more welcoming when patrons arrive but other than that my entire experience was wonderful. Our waiter was fantastic and provided plenty of suggestions. We sampled a variety of appetizers from the lamb ragu hummus and vegetable crudite to the cheese rolls which were outstanding. The pairing of the cheese and apricot jam was perfection. For our entrees we went with the mixed grill and the filet mignon with a side of Brussels sprouts so that we could sample a little of everything from the chicken, lamb to the beef and grilled veggies. Everything was chefs kiss and I can’t wait to return.

    My first time dining at Rumi's and the vibe was awesome for Xmas! But what really made it special was our waiter, Jonathan. He is a true asset to Rumi's. He gave us the best dining experience. He explained every dish. He recommended some awesome pairings for our meal. Again, Happy Holidays Jonathan. You made our holiday special. See ya next time.

    Persian food done right in beautiful surroundings. Our server Hana was awesome and was super helpful with helping us make selections and understand the gift card process. She did not rush us and provided excellent service. We had the kashke badamjoon for our appetizer - great portion size and tasted exactly like it should. We had the chicken barg with zeresk polo for our main course which was really good and made great leftovers.

    Atmosphere was organic and upscale, the cocktails and wines were plentiful and flavorful, and the food was quality, flavorful, and cooked well. The hostesses were not as friendly as I would have liked, but the bartenders and our server (Salih O) were attentive, professional, and knowledgeable. Overall, we had a great experience.
