Sahand is a well-stocked, family-run grocery store in Kirkland, offering a wide selection of Persian and Middle Eastern food items. The store is small but packed with specialty products, including fresh, canned, dry, and frozen foods. Customers appreciate the vast array of spices, rice, and unique items like rose and orange blossom water, saffron, and baklava. The convenient location, alongside a Persian bakery and an Eastern European grocery store, makes it a popular destination for those seeking authentic Persian groceries without traveling far. While the store is often busy, especially during holidays like Nowruz, the owner is generally described as kind and helpful, although some customers have noted variability in service. Despite the occasional perception of rudeness, many shoppers have found him to be friendly and willing to assist. The prices may be slightly higher than other Iranian shops, but the quality of products and the unique offerings make Sahand a hidden gem worth visiting. Overall, the store has a loyal customer base, who appreciate its charm and the quality of its products.

The store owner is a very kind man. I have been shopping at his store for about 10 years now. He is always willing to assist and provide helpful recommendations. All the products I have purchased from his store have been of good quality.
