Felt like I was transported to another country. The shop shares space with market and has an extra room to the right for seating. Coffee was good here and staff are friendly!

Their Zaban (roasted beef tongue sandwich), is a Persian's specialty. Although I am not a big fan of organ meat, I took a bite and it was good. "The whole shebang", dubbed with a funky American name, is an omelette with veggies and sausage, garnished with avocado slices and fruits. If you dig into the ingredients, it's very Persian. E.g. Persian sausage, the mixture of egg and tomatoes and Sangak flatbread. The hilarious name tickles my funny bone every time. A combination of store and cafe. The store sells almost every thing middle eastern. I strolled in the small shop, amazed by the varieties of different products. Especially tea. Bought a sadaf jasmine special blend and it tasted wonderful! Sangak, a Persian wheat flatbread, is made fresh in the house. It was chewy and fluffy. What an exotic experience! The outdoor sitting has a pleasant and serene feel as if you step into an oasis surrounded by booming flowers and green plants. Vibey and quiet. Great food. Decent service. Nice people working there. Will come back to try their Napoleon cake.

Great breakfast place! The coffee was also made really good. I got a veggie Kokomo which is an herbed egg sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes. I chose to have it on Sangak bread. It was good and filling! They have outdoor seating in the front with plants around to shield some of Stevens creek business. They also have a big assortment of pastries and bakery items that I didn't try but looked great!

We had the date omelet and brain booster juice. Dates and walnut were unexpected ingredients to be paired with eggs but I loved the combination. They served it with fresh fruits and bread making it lovelier! Unique breakfast place!

The food here was amazing and new i had the lamb head soup with bread, i will say this though that it is cold and the heaters do absolutely nothing on a winter windy day so bring a jacket. The Service was great they are very friendly and the market is really great stocked with alot of middle eastern goodies.

The sandwiches were delicious!! My partner and I got the Zaban (roasted beef tongue sandwich) and Kotlet (ground beef and potato sandwich), and each sandwich was roughly $20 give or take. It is a big meal, you can probably split a sandwich amongst two people, but we were feeling greedy. We had some condiments on the side, including ketchup, but the stars of the show were the Sriracha and the white sauce (not sure what it is, but LOVED it). The shop in itself is also a bakery, which lots of variety. There is indoor and outdoor seating available, along with free wifi. I only saw street parking, since the back lot was reserved by a neighboring business. Overall, would definitely come back! Thanks to a Reddit thread for the recommendation.

I tried Yeganeh for a weekend brunch. Parking is very challenging as there's only limited street parking in front of the store so we went early. You order and pay at the counter, and then they bring your food to you. They have seating outside and inside, and weather was nice so we opted for outdoor dining. I tried the whole shebang omelette and a Persian mint tea. The omelette came with some Persian breads and some fruit on the side. The bread was a bit dry and I wished there was some sauce or jam to go with it, but the omelette was pretty good. The mint tea was very unique and refreshing with the mint, and I would return for the tea. Overall a decent brunch spot and interesting experience to try Persian food.
