Sofreh

Led by chef and owner Nasim Alikhani, this Prospect Heights destination presents a refined exploration of regional Persian cuisine within a whitewashed space defined by wood-beam ceilings. The menu ranges from pomegranate beef ribeye and juicy chicken to standout vegetable dishes and salads like the tahini and date salad, complemented by cocktails. Dishes arrive in a structured, shareable order that lets the kitchen guide the meal, with highlights such as a mushroom dish anchored by an artichoke purée and desserts like saffron ice cream.
