The secret herbaceous ingredient in Heider Baba’s koobideh sandwich was driving mr mouther wild. Mint, Thai basil, dill?? Whatever it is, is blended masterfully with the creamy dressing and spiced ground beef. The sandwich also has lettuce, tomato, and pickle. Adds bfez, the adas polo (rice pilaf with raisins, lentils, and more) is great.

Try this place now. It simply and sadly sucks! :o( Over priced, and horrible service
Everything at Heidar Baba is excellent, and the amount of food for the price is amazing. I eat there a couple of times a month. They could open a second restaurant in Silverlake, charge twice as much, and beat the pants off of all the places their now.
