We were visiting Irvine and decided to go this resturant. We sat outside on the patio with my wife and child. The outside windows and walls were extremely dirty, covered in dust and debris. The food is not cheap—$4 for a single glass of dough filled mostly with ice. The waitress barely came by one time to over and a second time to bring the food, yet we were hit with an automatic 18% gratuity on the bill, but they font say anything. On top of that, they still asked for an additional tip at the bottom of the receipt. The owner is double-dipping by charging premium prices for the food and then adding an automatic tip on top.
Shady business practice.
A tip is supposed to be based on the quality of service and the food, not automatically given. Definitely not worth the price. We will not be going back.

We ordered lamb chops and beef kebab. Both were delicious. However, the presentation and lack of complementary items made the whole experience bland. The addition of 75 cents worth of fresh mint, basil and maybe some radish and spring onion would have made the whole experience and perceived value, so much better. As it was, the bland rice with a raw onion, made unworthy companions to what could have been an excellent meal.

We has Hatam cater food for our party and they did a wonderful job. The food was excellent and all of our guests also thought it was delicious. The catering service was one of the best we have ever experienced. Hossein Agha was super friendly and met, and exceeded, all of our expectations. I give them a 5 star.
