Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Both the food and service at this place was fantastic. We went on a Friday evening and we were sat within the first five minutes. The servers immediately bought some amazing tasting breads cheese and salad to the table. We were warmly greeted our orders were taken on time and were delivered within the next 10 minutes.The server kept checking on us refilling our water and bringing us whatever we wanted. Overall it was a great experience and the food tasted great.

If you are looking for an authentic Persian culinary experience, this restaurant is a must-visit. From the moment you sit down, you are greeted with a traditional starter of freshly baked lavash naan, served alongside creamy feta cheese, crunchy walnuts, and vibrant sabzi (fresh herbs). It’s the perfect way to awaken your palate. ​The highlights of the meal, however, are the main courses: ​The Tahdig: It is perfectly crispy and golden. What sets it apart is the option to top it with their savory stews, making every bite a rich explosion of texture and flavor. ​The Grills: The Lamb Kabab is incredibly tender, and the Koobideh is seasoned to perfection—juicy, flavorful, and charred just right. ​Baghali Polo with Lamb Shank: The lamb shank literally falls off the bone, and the Baghali Polo (fava bean and dill rice) is aromatic and perfectly fluffy. ​To wash it all down, their Dough (yogurt drink) is refreshing and acts as the perfect traditional accompaniment to the savory meats. Finally, make sure to save room for dessert. Ending the night with a warm glass of tea paired with their flaky Baklava or the sweet, syrupy Zoolbia Bamieh is the only way to go. Highly recommended for anyone craving genuine Persian flavors!

The restaurant is awesome. Great food. Such a warm atmosphere. They make bread themselves in ovens! Go here if you want traditional persian food to heal your soul. They have a shop outside as well.
