Really good Persian food. My first visit to Caspian Grill. Nice place, well decorated, and I was greeted by the owner as I walked in. My friend and I were treated well, sat right away, and walked through the menu. The food was excellent. My lamb shank fell off the bone and practically melted in my mouth. Paired it with the hummus, feta and veggies, a dish of eggplant with tomato puree (forgot the name of it) The prices were very reasonable. I would take off 1/4 star for the paper napkin and the paper place mat. other than that great dining experience!

Don't waste your time with this dump. One star is really too generous. This place is some cheesey gross rip off of what middle eastern food is supposed to be. Seattle is a town of amazing, affordable restaurants and its really a shame that this place is still in business. The chicken tastes rubbery, the sauce had this weird chemically taste even though it had obviously been filled with butter. Water glasses go unfilled, waiters have to be chased down when your'e ready for the check. The table next to us warned us as they were getting ready to leave that this place was bad news but unfortunately, we stayed for a meal. Big mistake!

Worst Resturant ever. I order Kobba lamb. It was NOT well done. I called the waiter and told him it wasn't well done. The owner came by looked at me in a very condescending way. And then said OK. It felt one more word and things would really get bad! This guy should be running a prison NOT a restaurant. 15 min later came by and it was still not well done.

The food tasted like rubber. The experience was very bad.

I do NOT recommend this place to anyone.

Seattle's best Persian food is just down the street!. The food from the Caspian Grill Persian Cuisine is beautifully conceived, elegantly presented, and as varied as the colors outside a window pane in spring. The chemistry of Persian food is not so foreign to me and just because the restaurant is not complete fine dining does not alter the dish placed in front of me, but certainly it reinterprets the fundamentals of cooking. The food is anything but simple. It is worldly, ancient, historically organic and honors the art of Persian Cuisine in its wonderful taste which is flavored like Grandmas home cooking during the holidays. When the gloves come off and every herb and spice is specifically placed to perfection so that every bite has exactly what the chef intended you taste, a little bite of Persia.

Caspian is KICKIN!. I have been dining at Caspian Persian Grill for years. Every Caspian Experience gets better and better, which is uncommon in any establishment. The staff is considerate, accommodating and friendly. The food (Platter #3 is a personal favorite) melts in your mouth and is truly authentic Persian Cuisine. To top the evening off, they provide their clients with Professional Belly Dance shows. I was just ad Caspian a few nights ago and was welcomed by a talented Belly Dancer. She involved the audience in her show, brought her strong talent to the Caspian Stage and added to the venue’s Flavor!

Caspian is KICKIN…keep up the stellar job!
