Jasmine

When I woke up a few Sundays ago, I had only one thing on my mind–the eggplant pizza like thing from Sevan’s. Unfortunately, when we got there, they were closed. So, PK, Amy, and I crossed the street to check out Jasmine. We wanted to keep this meal cheap so we shared a Kashk Bademjan (puree of toasted eggplant; $4.99), which was pretty good, and we each ordered a roll-up. The original plan was to get three different ones to share, but when PK and Amy both refused to budge, we ended up with two lamb kabobs ($6.99) and one Chicken Kubideh ($5.99). All three were delicious. The Kubideh was not as tasty as the lamb though.

As we were finishing up, we saw a few entrees on their way to the table next to us. One dish looked like more enough to feed two people. Even though I was full, the sight of these made me drool.

Verdict: I am looking forward to going back and trying a few of their entrées. Jasmine Taste of Persia on Urbanspoon

    I just had the kubideh roll-up the other night. Excellent. My daughter enjoyed the chicken kabobs, and the owner was nice enough to give her a “kid sized” portion for half the price. The rice, just straight up, was excellent.

    I love that place. I recommend the dolmehs. Those pictures are making my mouth water even though I just ate!

    The people who work there are really nice, too.

    Thanks for the comments and the tips. Ben-It’s great to read about how the owner made up a kid sized portion for your daughter. I am finding that kind acts like that are becoming increasingly rare around Boston. I am looking forward to going back and checking out the dolmehs along with either the Joojeh Kabob (cornish hen) or the Lamb Shanks.

    This is my favorite spot.I love these exotic rice they have. Shirin polo with chicken is the best. My mouth gets watery by only thinking of their lamb kabobs. Actually everything is excellent. I have always been satisfied of the food there.I recomend to everyone to go and try.
