I eat out a lot but the worst dining experience of my life was at Reza's restaurant. I came with 8 friends and all 8 of us were sick and three needed to go to the hospital. We contacted the Health Department and apparently their storage facility was illegal and they were storing food in a rat infested building near their parking lot. I saw that there was an orange sign behind a piece of plywood covering the door. I bet that was the health department sign they said they had put up.
I have had non food realted business dealings with the owner on a property I wanted to buy-against warnings from my friends. They said he has screwed over everyone he does business with and that was from a lawyer who's firm has tried two cases where he was getting sued. They said this guy is always getting sued. When I met him I could see the reputation was earned. He was shifty.
I did not hear bad things about his restaurant. I didn't hear good things either actually. My friends wanted to go so I went.
I will tell you this-his restaurant fits his reputation. It was horrible and 3 imodium pills did not help.
Avoid this place at all cost! I hope the health department shuts him down.
