Great food flavour explosion great fair prices I would advise eating here any time really good

Our second visit. We chose two different lamb stews from the specials board. A little disappointing as the meat was overcooked and very dry. The sauces were wonderful. I suppose you shouldn't go back to somewhere you enjoyed first time around

I have been coming here for three and a half years. Good service, owner is attentive and conversational. Food is fabulously seasoned, and represents Persian cuisine in a positive light.

First time visit just to check the environment and menu. Went in it was super quiet literally had to softly call on to request a menu. An old man came (probably the owner) handed over the menu and staring at me like I asked him for his kidney. That menu looked like he typed all up and printed from word document. As I was going through menu he kept staring at me like I am a suspect. I then asked him gently what does this specific meal like? He got super annoyed and attacked and said “Are you here to eat or question me” obviously broken english. I and my dad was really polite and just was not expecting the outcome and such a behaviour. He said “listen, if you are not here to eat you can leave you can’t afford my food” I mean… what makes him think that I cannot afford his food? Very unfortunate of us that we went in to ask. He insulted my dad and when I told him you are not allowed to speak to customers in that tone he started speaking in broken english which I couldn’t really understand and he was saying something “we are rated top 10 restaurants blah blah blah” I mean you do not need to say all that if you are actually good. Honestly it was just a visit to ask what it is like. Racism is not tolerated anywhere.

Have been there a few times!Tasty and authentic food but priced on the higher end.Owner is very nice and friendly.We celebrated our friends birthday there and they helped us turn it into a really nice surprise.I would recommend going there once in a while when you want to treat yourself.

We came here in today by seeing the excellent reviews on google. As soon as I stepped inside, I felt the home-style comfort that this restaurant had to offer. We ordered Hummus, which was well-seasoned and very delicious. As a main we had Lamb Shish and Lamb Kebabs, both being extremely well seasoned, juicy and soft.Would definitely recommend and hope to be here again soon!

Delicious food and wonderful friendly service. Great prices and portions. Recommend for sure 😊 We had the meze deals on the front page of the menu, I had the veggie and my friends had the other 2 meat options. They both looked amazing, especially the stew. Between us we had 7 dips, so shared them all! 😆 A great sharing option 👍🏻
