Update: as of 2009, we have stopped going to this place. The food taste has suffered, portions have gotten much smaller and the prices gone up.
2008 review:
The Best Persian Food in LA Once You Overcome the Gaudy Decor
Just ignore the interior design and focus on the food. The ultra-gaudy decor kept me away for years. Every time fellow Persians said Darya is the best, I thought they probably have bad taste or they only focus on kebobs as the main criterion. A few times while walking by, I walked into the place, but I could not tolerate the decor more than a few seconds. I also remembered having dined there six or seven years ago with terrible results. Bad food and bad decor for an hour.
But after a bad experience at another Persian restaurant and feeling that we had lost a favorite, my girlfriend and I decided to try this place. The food was absolutely the best food I have had in any Persian restaurant. The rice was cooked perfectly, the stews were tasty and not too oily, the kebobs are mean and the special rice dishes (e.g. Adas Polo) heaven-sent. Their walnut stew (Fesenjoon) and eggplant Kashk-o Bademjan are great but not the best in town. Their Shirazy salad, can be left in the kitchen, But every thing else is tasty and hellll. Now if you are a vegetarian, try their vegetarian combo and choose Lima bean+dill rice (Baghali Polo) and lentil-raisin rice (Adas Polo) as your two special rices and have cucumber-yogurt dip instead of the Shirazy Salad. It also comes with the eggplant Kashk-o Bademjan. Their split-pea-turmeric stew Gheymeh and especially their parsley-cilantro-chive Ghorme Sabzy stew have the perfect ~punchh. We have been to this place quite a few times since we discovered it 2 months ago and the decor doesn't bother me at all any more and I can see how some people can see it as part of the quirky charm of the place. It also assures the place won't get too popular.
Pros: Great Food, Great Service
Cons: See the gaudy decor as a quirk
