Hi Iryna, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. At Caspian Grill, we prepare our food fresh to order, which can sometimes result in longer wait times during busy periods. However, we understand that your wait felt excessive, and we apologize for that experience. We also respect that taste is personal, especially when it comes to traditional dishes like shawarma. We strive to offer authentic Central Asian flavors, but we're sorry that our recipe was not what you were hoping for. As for our pricing, we focus on quality ingredients, generous portions, and freshly prepared halal food, though we understand that value can be perceived differently by every guest. We appreciate your honest feedback and will use it to continue improving. We wish you all the best and thank you for giving us a try.
The pilaf was old and the meat was dry.

Thank you for your feedback Bridgett. However, we have serious concerns about the accuracy of this review. No one approached our staff with any complaint about the taste of the food. Had anyone done so, we would have addressed it immediately and made every effort to resolve the issue on the spot. Providing a positive experience for our guests is always our top priority. We would also like to clarify that our meat is never sweet. Our cuisine may be unfamiliar to some in the Bay Area, but we do not use sugar or sweet sauces in our food - this is simply not part of our recipes. Our regular guests and those who know our kitchen can confidently confirm this. Because of these inconsistencies, this review does not reflect genuine experience with our restaurant we kindly ask that only truthful and accurate information be shared. We remain open to real feedback and are always ready to address any concerns directly.
