Zand’s Persian Kebabs

Zand’s Persian Kebabs stands as a beacon of authentic Persian cuisine, captivating the taste buds of locals and visitors alike with its rich, deeply marinated flavors. Since its establishment in 2011, Zand’s has embarked on a culinary journey from a humble food trailer in Houston to a beloved eatery in the Bryan, College Station area, with the mission of offering genuine Persian kebabs at an affordable price.

The mastermind behind Zand’s exquisite menu is Ali, a native of Iran with a rich tapestry of experiences from living in various countries. Ali’s culinary expertise is evident in every dish served at Zand’s, a testament to his years of dedication in the food service industry, including a pivotal tenure at one of Dublin, Ireland’s top restaurants. It’s here that Ali was entrusted with the secret marinade recipes that now bring a piece of Persian culinary tradition to Bryan.

Zand’s commitment to authenticity and quality is unmistakable. Every dish is a celebration of Persian flavors, with halal meat sourced weekly from a reputable butcher in Houston, ensuring that each bite is fresh and of the highest standard. The lamb kubideh and the spicy gyro wrap are standout dishes, praised for their fragrant spices and tender, flavorful meats that truly set Zand’s apart from the rest.

But it’s not just the main courses that dazzle at Zand’s. The appetizers, including a silky, perfectly blended hummus served with warm, fresh pita bread, offer a delightful introduction to the meal. The diverse menu caters to a variety of tastes, featuring vegetarian and vegan options alongside the succulent meat dishes, ensuring that there’s something for everyone.

The Ghormeh Sabzi, a vegetarian stew rich in mixed herbs and spices, is a testament to Zand’s ability to deliver dishes that are both light and satisfying. This dish, alongside the expertly prepared kebabs, showcases the depth of Persian cuisine’s flavor palette, offering a culinary experience that is both unique and deeply comforting.

Zand’s not only excels in its culinary offerings but also in creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Ali’s hospitality is renowned among patrons, many of whom return time and again for the unbeatable combination of delicious food, friendly service, and reasonable prices. The restaurant has cultivated a loyal clientele over the years, a clear indication of its success and the high regard in which it is held within the community.

Zand’s Persian Kebabs is more than just a restaurant; it is a destination where food lovers can immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Persian cuisine.
