Shiraz Kitchen & Wine Bar

Chef-owner Reza Parhizkaran builds the menu from his mother's recipes, serving classic dishes like kashk e bademjan, fesenjoon, and cornish game hen kebabs alongside playful touches like ghormeh sabzi served over crispy tahdig. The cellar offers a list of 235-plus small-production bottles, backed by a Wine Spectator award. The space features a polished design that accommodates both corporate dinners and spontaneous drop-ins. While the kitchen is praised for its steady execution and fresh herbs, some diners note the food does not quite reach the benchmark set by peers like Sofreh.
