Chelokababi Persian Cuisine: Authentic Persian Delights in Sunnyvale

This restaurant stands out for its authentic, traditional Persian atmosphere and decor, but the food is the true highlight. The Gheymeh Bademjan and Jooje Kabob were both incredible—easily some of the best I’ve had in the USA. While the rest of the menu is solid, those two dishes are absolute must-tries for anyone seeking an authentic meal.

I absolutely loved the interiors of this place it had such a timeless, vintage charm that transported me to another era. The ambiance alone makes it worth a visit! The food was delicious with generous portion sizes, and our server was incredibly courteous and attentive throughout the meal. The menu is quite extensive, offering a great variety of options, and the wine list is massive definitely a treat for wine lovers. The tea menu is also great and the presentation is gorgeous the dessert was also amazing. Highlight of the meal was Sultani the meat was very tender. A lovely spot for a relaxed meal with great service.

Persian restaurant with beautiful decoration, ornaments and dishes! Cuisines are authentic, fresh and delicious. Portions are standard with decent amount. Good selection of beverages. Veggie section stands out with pleasant options. The gentleman host was very welcoming and helpful. Service was quick, responsive with attentive waiters. Free parking lot get filled up quickly but still manageable. Reservation recommended. Good for couples, kids, seniors and groups.

It's my favorite in the Bay Area! Their koobideh is extremely delicious, and the dressing is my fav. They are partial halal, unfortunately the Barg is not Halal. Please ask before ordering about Halal meat. Please confirm about Chicken, as my knowledge its machine cut halal.

This Persian restaurant has elegant decor that creates a warm atmosphere. The food is decent overall, and the shish kabab is my favorite — tender, flavorful, and well-cooked.

Good Persian food. Service was good. Lamb was a bit chewy and could have been a little tender than what we got and that would have been awesome. Taste was good though.

A unique take on afternoon tea with delicious bites but smaller portions. I made a reservation for a Saturday at 2pm via Opentable. They require a $10 per person deposit to make a reservation and refund after your visit (FYI my refund was initiated 3 days after our visit). Be aware they add a 22% gratuity regardless of your party size. To start, I ordered saffron tea and my mom ordered royalty. The saffron tea comes in a typical sachet, however, royalty came in a beautifully plated pile of ingredients that you add to your teapot to steep. While a fun concept, my mom's tea was not steeping well and was very light in color so we had to call over the wait staff so they could add more ingredients to my mom's teapot. The tea came with 3 savory items: smoked salmon bites, olovieh (a Persian chicken potato salad), and spinach filo with cucumber yogurt, and 3 sweets: raspberry scone with clotted cream and fruit jams, Persian love cake, and noon chai with chocolate and fresh strawberries. There was also a palate cleanser in between of a mango drink and some additional pistachio dough desserts at the end. The food was all delicious though I was treating this tea as a late lunch and was still hungry afterwards. If you also prefer to treat your teas as their own meals, I'd recommend supplementing it with one of their other dishes.

One of the best High Tea experiences in Silicon Valley!!!! Highly recommend it to check it out and have a relaxing 2hrs, drinking many choices of lovely aromatic teas with delicious lovely savory and sweet finger foods mainly made in house! The host Maryam Joon was so hospitable and well organized We will be definitely back for more tea time!
