    Take it from a Persian who's had persian food his entire life, both in America and Iran. Darya is one of the best, if not THE best Persian restaurant in OC. Recipes are always on point, food quality is consistent, service is always great. My favorite persian spot.

    I usually don’t leave feedback on experiences for I usually like to witness thing on my own accord, but to do this with Darya’swould be a great injustice to you. The food here is amazing and the staff is friendly and welcoming. Lolis took our order and made you feel like you were family. Attentative, understanding, and … well let me just say she throughly enjoys her job. This says so much for the staff and the whole restaurant in itself. Do yourself a favor and take the time to enjoy this diamond in Costa Mesa. You will not be disappointed!

    Beautiful setting. Elegant. Service was superior. Had reserved a quiet table and that was honored. Although a large banquet came in toward the end of our meal, the service remained attentive and gracious nevertheless. Meat, side dishes, and desserts were top notch. Eager to return for our next meal out.

    Service was great!! . Food was not good. Lamb was hard and overcooked, the filet was overcooked and bland. They were out of the crispy rice by 7:00. Not worth the price. Bahar is mission Viejo is much better and less expensive.

    Darya continues to be one of our Orange Counties top dining locations. My wife and I have always experienced a personal and friendly staff in a beautiful and clean surrounding. The food is always excellent. May I suggest you try the abalo ( cherry ) rice. It is quite a treat!
