Underwhelming Baghali Polo — expected more

I was looking forward to Baghali Polo here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The fragrant and aromatic character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with pomegranate molasses or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

the sofreh spread on the floor is the traditional Iranian dining setting. The a communal sofreh tablecloth feast setting I was hoping for wasn't quite there either. doogh yoghurt drink was available but not suggested appropriately. I've had much better versions elsewhere. Two stars because the dish concept is sound; the execution let it down.
