If you are seeking a quality, laid-back ethnic restaurant, this is definitely one to place high on your bucket list. They serve excellent kabobs and offer an attractive outdoor dining space.
Pomegranate specializes in Persian style cuisine. First off, there are a bunch of appetizing Mediterranean style dips to choose amongst. A classic hummus dip served with pita is a great place to start.
Hearty stews, Lamb and Seafood entrees, wraps, and Poultry and Beef based dishes comprise the menu. A sample of entrees include: Portobello Wrap, Salmon Wrap, Barg Kabob, Roasted Salmon Kabob, Mediterranean salad, Vegetarian, Beef, or Chicken Fesenjan. The best way to go here for lunch is a Kabob.
The Vegetarian Kabob, featuring tomatoes, portobello mushrooms, pineapples, onions, bell peppers, and eggplant, is both delicious and healthy. The veggies were perfectly seasoned and the flavors work well together. Kabobs are served alongside basmati rice, so this is a very filling dish, even for dinner.
If visiting for lunch, considering trying a wrap. The wraps here are the perfect size for a light, yet filling lunch. The Chicken wrap is deliciously seasoned with charbroiled boneless chicken, onions, pickles, diced tomatoes, mayo, parsley, and a Persian citrus dressing, all wrapped up in a tasty flatbread.
Pricing is quite affordable compared to many businesses on Main St.
Service was professional and prompt, and the food did not take long to arrive. The apps and entrees were appropriately spaced apart. This place never gets too busy so you can always expect personalized service.
The dining area is one of the most beautiful in town.
