Decent food but could be better. Food came luke warm and by the time it was time to eat, it felt cold. I have been here a couple of times before and it was definitely better those times. Not sure what happened this time and it wasn’t that busy either. We went in as 3 families and even the naan that came, was just warm by the time it came.
Big Note: Service charge is added by default and you HAVE to pay for it unless you find something wrong with the service/food. It’s NOT discretionary so please know this from before when you step into this restaurant. Overall ok experience.

Very nice restaurant that serves authentic Iranian food. The food is very delicious and the prices are very reasonable. The manager and the waiting staff are very friendly polite and helpful. Highly recommended.

We eat here maybe twice a year as it's quite out the way from where I live.

I see alot of people commenting about the service charge and I dont care, my advice to them is to not eat out if you cant afford it, no one forced you to eat there and you obviously visited because you like the food.

It's an upmarket Persian Restaurant that serves quality food and decent portions, I pay around £80 for four people to eat, including drinks, 99% of the time I am taking food home as there are leftovers.

The Lamb Kobeidah is really well cooked and the meat quality is of an exceptional standard, I also get the Special Chicken, whic is marinated chunks of Chicken Breast and it is cooked to perfection, really juicy and succulent Chicken that just melts in the mouth.

While the drinks are expensive, it's a worthy treat as the food is consistently at a high standard (never had food from them that we had to send back)

Also, grab a baba ghanoush (we call it Noush) it's a great representation of a classic Persian dish...

Finally, their Naan bread is on the large side and freshly made to order. We always grab a few extra to take home, and they last a couple of days where you can bang em in the micro and have some leftovers with the bread.

10/10 on customer service our server was polite and friendly, on this trip we realised we were a bread short, one hand raised the waiter came over and brought us the missing naan in seconds...

If you are looking for top Quality Persian food, this is the place for you. If you want budget food, go else where. If you want a debate on "service charges" go on reddit...

Went to the restaurant today to celebrate a birthday. We have been here many times but today’s experience has let us down horribly.

My sister ordered a drink and when it arrived, one taste and it was utterly horrible.

We called the manager over and asked for the drink to be swapped with another one as we did not like it. As we are paying for the drink it makes sense for them to change it.

The manager then responded that if he changes it for us he will he will have to change it for everyone.

We found this utterly rude.

We will never ben returning and will stop recommending this place.

PS- the manager also mentioned that this overpriced drink comes out of a machine and is not even homemade.

Very sad

Been coming here since I was a kid, loved it then and still love it to this day. Quite literally everything was good and if we had an issue they sorted it out straight away. All of the food was high quality and cooked perfectly. Always end it with a Iranian tea with mint 👌🏽 Great service, great food, great vibes. 10/10 highly recommend!
