This place has really tasty Persian food. Super fresh and very natural ingredients, doesn't have weird added syrups and msg and sugar like other places Very good!

it was my first time getting Persian food since moving to the south Bay area. We decided to go to this restaurant because of all the great reviews and they were not wrong. We tried the grape leaves appetizer and it was my first time trying this dish it was incredible. The flavors were so vibrant, we also got the special special which included filet mignon, steak, peppers, tomatoes, chicken, beef koobideh. The beef koobideh was my favorite out of the rest so I recommend trying that when you visit the restaurant. Ambience is decent. Service is okay because the waiters are nice but food comes out really really slow. One thing I have to commend them on is their PORTION SIZES. I will have leftovers for days and am so happy about it. Would overall definitely recommend this place. Just give urself some time if you decide to dine here because food comes out slow.

Came in on Easter and was very impressed! Food was excellent! Highly recommend the ground beef Koobideh! The server looked very busy but was very efficient and pleasantly smiling even though she was completely swamped! I will definitely come back! Love the ambience, the service and especially the food! Superb! A+

It was easy to make a dinner reservation through Yelp less than two hours before our intended visit. We arrived early and they had a table ready for us. It's a clean and casual environment with plenty of indoor seating. By 7:15pm, the place was packed, the staff workin hard on a Saturday evening. I appreciated the effort they put into providing a positive experience for customers. The food was great, we had the chicken breast kabob plate and charbroiled filet mignon kabob with basmati rice. Each dish came with a blistered tomato and jalapeno (super spicy!) on the side, and though the chicken was slightly dry, everything on our plates was full of flavor and super satisfying, the filet mignon cooked to a perfect medium rare. I really liked the restaurant, it's definitely a great option for delicious Persian fare in San Jose.

I've been going to YAS for years now, mainly before Covid and nothing has changed. The cozy Persian feeling, Persian music playing, and the Persian food aroma. The only thing that has changed is their pricing. $27 for a meat,rice, and tomato plate. They aren't cheap with their portion which is nice. Workers here are super friendly, there's 2 ladies who seem to be the only ones working the front. We got their grounded chicken plate which is always a yes from me. Judy tender, full of flavors. Their rice is tasty and different, and comes with a semi burnt but I think that's what makes it better! The grounded beef is also good but I prefer the chicken more. The grounded lamb plate I heard was good (not a fan of lamb)

I always recommend everyone to try Yas restaurant for their Kabobs. The ladies in front who take the orders are absolutely attentive and polite. I' ve never had any miscommunication or wrong orders. Their koobideh is the tastiest kind in the whole California. I always believe those businesses that manage and runs by their owners constantly have a better understanding of the costumer's need. Highly Recommended
