A Persian Speciality Restaurant Alounak, in Bayswater, London has been a cherished part of our lives for nearly four decades, ever since its inception in 1995. Our visits, whether with family or friends, have consistently been an exceptional culinary journey. The food quality remains at its pinnacle, and the ambiance continues to transport us to the heart of Persia, sparing us the need to travel thousands of miles. During our recent visit, we had the privilege of being attended to by the remarkable Ms. Hasti and her team, including the skilled Ms. Nara and others. They provided insightful narratives about our beloved dishes, which, although familiar, now come with delightful twists that have left our taste buds yearning for more. This enduring excellence is a testament to the dedication of the restaurant's Management, Executive Officers, and the entire staff at Alounak Restaurant, Bayswater, London. We shall appreciate if our compliments are duly conveyed to the Staff concerned, as in addition to making us happy, it will also motivate them and other staff to always strive for their best. Their unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional experiences to their patrons is truly commendable. A journey to Alounak Restaurant, Bayswater, London continues to be an enchanting and delectable adventure, and we eagerly anticipate returning for many more decades to come. Kudos to Alounak Restaurant, Bayswater, London for their continued pursuit of excellence in all their endeavours! Ash-Cash and Ashandkaren

Good Persian restaurant in Bayswater. Had dips for starters. Make sure you order the crunchy bread to eat the dips with - it is a delight. Had mixed grill for the main and the portion was huge. Two massive skewers of well grilled chicken and lamb. Taste was good but a bit dry. Perhaps order a side salad. After-dinner tea was nice and helped us digest all the food. Service is good and the vibe is nice.

It was a long waiting, still they were helpful and trying to arrange tables according to our requirements. Food was really good, servant was very helpful and she was trying to accommodate our wishes through recommending mix of dishes that wouldn’t increase the price yet give us what we want as a group. Really appreciate their openness and friendly approach. Their tea is very recommended after the delicious heavy dishes they have. Both food and experience were excellent would highly recommend it.

My favourite Persian restaurant! Delicious food every time, especially the koobideh. Small, family-feel place. Quick service, but they don't rush you out either. Lovely decor too.

I’m a regular at Alounak for last two years and must have tried it at least a dozen times and never disappointed with food. The Taftoon bread is alway so fresh out of the wood over and delicious to try with butter. Boneless chicken with rice is my usual with their mint lemonade. Highly recommended if you’re looking for good Persian food in Westbourne Grove and Notting Hill / Paddington

Really good! Well priced with good service and friendly staff. I didn't try any specific Persian dishes unfortunately, what I did have was really decent. Special mention to the stone baked bread, first time I've had my entire meal on top of the bread. Can't really complain about anything major maybe my lemon was a bit dry😁

The best thing about this place is the ambiance. We were seated right next to the oven and were able to observe as the bread was made. The smell from the oven was amazing.

Good experience overall, the food was good and the staff were attentive🙌🏻 Koobideh wasn’t the best I had but Chenjeh was alright👍🏻 The mixed platter on the starter menu is a great way to taste some favourite dishes, minus the homous… that could be swapped with Mast-o-moosir which is a more authentic Persian starter/side🤔 Also not too sure about the deserts menu, only two options and the Baklava was a bit dry
