Colbeh Restaurant

A fantastic dinner experience tucked away in a quiet street in central London. Having eating lots of persian and afghan foods, I must say this was the best restaurant I have found in London, one could even say this is one of the best in the UK!

The staff are extremely attentive to each customer’s needs even when the restaurant is busy with people, quickly attending to you and our meal was given to us efficiently too. You get some olives to snack on whilst you wait and when the food itself finally arrives, you can see it was absolutely wonderful.

The mast-o-khiar paired with the broth of the lamb shank which they give separately alongside rice too is absolutely divine. So definitely recommend the lamb shank and also the chelo kebab koobideh. Pair all these dishes with their amazing naan and you will be in food heaven ! Even simply dipping the warm stonebaked naan in the mast-o-khiar or ghouzi’s (lamb shank) broth or green chili sauce is the best present you could give your taste buds. I therefore 100% recommend trying the dishes with both rice and naan and mixing it up with the lamb dishes and their condiments!

Overall, an amazing experience and I will definitely be returning to and recommending this restaurant to everyone with a warm and cozy atmosphere, the most welcoming staff and hopefully trying some of their ghormeh sabzi and desserts. Thank you for this wonderful dinner!

It was amazing!!! One of the best halal persian food in UK. So far whenever i go i enjoy it so much. They have authenticity and their fresh kebabs and saffron rice is out of the world.

Among the top Persian restaurants in London, this place is a must-visit for its exquisite Quzi dish. A great experience not to be missed!

Extremely delicious food, served very hot which is amazing, all dished were too fresh (chelo kebab, okra, hakaka, lentil soup) very busy and a long queue but worth it

We had a very disappointing experience at Colbeh Restaurant. The food was bland and overcooked, and the prices were high. My friends and I ordered two soups with meat and one mixed grilled dish with rice. The food was dry and tasteless, and the rice was overcooked and mushy. The service was also slow and inattentive. Our waiter took a long time to take our order, and the food took even longer to arrive. When we finally got our food, it was cold. One of the soups was even sweet, which was a strange and unpleasant flavor combination. We left most of the food on the table, and then the waiter came to ask for an additional 10 pounds for the service.

I would not recommend Colbeh Restaurant to anyone. The food is bad, the prices are high, and the service is slow. I would much rather go to a different Persian restaurant in the area.
