Darya Grill - Santee

This place is amazing. I ordered the beef and chicken combo. The beef was very good, but the chicken was absolutely amazing. The chicken was tender and juicy. At many other places the meat, especially chicken, are very dry. Give this place a try, and I recommend ordering the beef and chicken combo plate.

I hate like hell to have to write this review, but I feel compelled to let fellow Santee residents and the proprietor about my experience on 10/17/20. I have been ordering/eating-in at this local eatery since they opened, a couple times a month. Anyway, the round kid(male) working there always asks if I want to add a tip on a pick-up--I'm old-fashioned and I don't want to tip anyone when I collect my carry-out order. Anyway, yesterday, the kid in question decided to tip himself without my permission. He rang $1.23 up and asked for my signature--I asked why and he said he needed it as he accidentally rang $1.23 and my signature would void the transaction. He then rang me up for my food purchase. BTW, I dropped $1.00 in change in his jar, and he witnessed it. Well, I went home and looked at my card statement online and discovered the $1.23 was still on the card--it's not about the piddling amount; it's about deception, and I want his mommy and daddy to know I will no longer patronize their restaurant for his willful dishonesty.

Heaps of food made with homestyle cooking style and reasonably priced. Will visit in the future. Try it if you love Persian and Mediterranean food. Lots of traditional items to choose from

Darya Grill is a great place for Mediterranean food. Their gyro is very good and their other dinner dishes are very good as well. Service has always been good and they are always very friendly and polite. You get a lot of food for the price. It's always a great place for something different.

We picked up dinner recently and it was so good! Huge portions, plenty for lunch the next day. Koobideh, chicken, rice all of it was delicious. We will definitely be back!
