YĀR ON THE LAKE
The word Yār comes from Persian, meaning friend—one who walks beside you—and that spirit is the heart of everything we do. Created as a place for connection, Yār is where friends, families, neighbors, and newcomers gather to share a table by the water, where conversations linger and laughter carries.
OUR STORY
Our family has called Westlake Village home for over forty years, with this lake as the backdrop to our most meaningful moments. Yār is our way of giving back, rooted in Mediterranean communal dining and the Persian belief that hospitality is sacred. This is more than a restaurant; it’s a gathering place, a neighborhood table, a home for old friends and new ones still to be met. Welcome to Yār—where you will always be among friends.
