They served us stale beef
I will surely never eat here again, nor do I recommend it to anyone else. I went because of good reviews from a magazine in my hotel room. If you've seen this magazine, do not believe it. Believe most of the ratings you see here on this website. That article must have been written a while ago and maybe when this restaurant was under previous management. The food really was tasteless and my wife and I were sold filet mignon that tasted really old and overcooked; and it was supposed to be cooked medium. Our waiter barely spoke English and it took about 15 mins just to get our order correct. We felt really ripped off because the meal was pricey. I can't remember the last time I felt that way at a restaurant. Don't know about Persian food, but if you like Spanish food, I highly recommend Sevilla also located on fourth street. The ambiance there is outstanding as well.

YUM!
The Adas Polo is to die for. The mixture of flavors are a perfect combination.

Pleasantly surprised by Kathy S. at InsiderPages
I had never eaten Persian food, and had absolutely no idea what to expect when I was taken here on a date, but I have to admit, the food was very good and the ambiance is wonderful. I can't even pronounce what I had, but it was very good!

Great Persian Food! by ZULIYA K. at InsiderPages
If you want to try Persian food, go to Bandar. It offers a wide variety of authentic Persian specialties. My favorite chicken kobideh with zereshk palav (ground chicken kabob with barbaries rice). It's to die for! To finish off, try their Persian Ice-Cream with pistachios and rose water!

Best Persian Restaurant in San Diego
I looooove Bandar's chicken kabab and green salad. My husband can't get enough of the lamb shank mixed with the hummus avocadowe could eat it everyday!
The staff service is also always very friendly and dressed nicely.

Thank you for your review, but we do not believe your judgement is fair. Bandar has been awarded Best Ethnic & Persian Cuisine 1996-2008. We have a classic historical design & in regards to the article in the back of our menu, for us it is very valuable because it is our story and it never gets old.

Times Have Changed But Not At Bandar
Extremely disappointing experience dining at Bandar. The service staff have ghost like attitude and never write anything down adding insult to injury. The food lacks care and has steam table qualities shouting from it.
It is apparent from the pricing of both dinner and wine list menus that rent is very high at their location. Some how the restaurant feels its customers have to pay its high rent and get none in return.
The place looks tired and on its last limb. An old article in the menu is a perfect example that Bandar remains in the past.
This was restaurant week in San Diego. When are you going to step it up?

Persian cuisine
I like this place, the ambiance is comfortable and the food is delicious. I really enjoy the kabobs and lamb their. They even have doough, which is a carbonated yogurt mint drink.
