Nice authentic Persian food close to home. Have had the pleasure numerous times with just family as well as friends and visitors. Everyone really enjoyed the food, the flavour and the atmosphere. Great for families as well as takeaway. Get everything at least once... You'll come again so pace yourself!

The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and made the experience stress free. The menu was not too large and having Iranian friends helped the choice of excellent food. We will definitely go again.

Perfection at its finest. PLEASE KINDLY READ!
I went to this restaurant on Friday 7th May 2021 (purposely stating the exact date so that the owner knows I appreciated his hospitality) with my girlfriend to break my fast for Ramadan.
Without a doubt, the most enlightening evening I've ever had and I truly enjoy my fine dining. The food was cooked to absolute perfection. Fragrant, gorgeous barberry rice, koobideh was absolute heaven, chicken and king prawns were so succulent and flavoursome. Vegetables literally melted in my mouth. The owner was a pure angel and even though we arrived slightly late following our reservation, he welcomed us with refreshing, sweet Persian dates and ensured that the food was cooked rapidly for us so we could break our fast happily and to sure say, we did is an understatement.
Our Persian mint, ginger and saffron tea with organic cane sugar was gorgeous. I really wanted to go out of my way to tip the owner on this night but I only brought enough on me as I'm constantly travelling for work.
I will genuinely return as much as I can to this restaurant just because of your fabulous service. I wish I could thank the owner himself (I believe he is the owner as he was serving us) with full appreciation however, I hope he does read this and remember our presence.
You honestly made my year. Thank you for a such a beautiful experience.
Anybody whom decides to post even the slightest negative review is lieing to you so please ignore anything but positive feedback.
Lots of love -

Went here on a Sunday for some light dinner, wasn’t busy at all but that was no consolation. The service was great and the food was very tasty and served hot. Would recommend.

Very friendly staff. Excellent value for money. Ordered a platter for 2. Meat was very tender and we'll seasoned. We went at a quiet time really nice inside. They also have a nice outside area for the summer. Unfortunately don't have saffron tea but they do have cinnamon and cardamom tea which is absolutely amazing. Really good place to eat!!

Ordered a mixed seafood grill for two, and it was absolutely delicious aswell as being a generous portion. Their king prawns and barbery rice especially were to die for. I highly recommend giving this one a go. Despite not dining in, I did collect my food, and have to say the venue is beautiful too.

We enjoyed our evening with authentic Persian cuisine and it was a nice, relaxed atmosphere and the service was very good. Excellent value for money as the quality of the food was very good and fresh, we particularly enjoyed the starter platter and Steak kebab and the icecream. We would definitely visit again.

It looks like any other high street curry restaurant, but the food and service was excellent. Really busy for a Monday night. Had the most side dishes I've ever had with papodoms. It was called the Prithi though, not Kookoo

Cute place. I got a fillet. It was very juicy but I was surprised by the flavours. My meal took a while to be cooked. I suspect because everything was made from scratch. Would give a 5 star if the wait between starter and mains was not such a long wait

Best Persian restaurant in London! I tried a few Persian restaurant but have to say that kabab koobideh was especially good here. Service was excellent and very attentive and we love the atmosphere of the restaurant so much.<br/>Definitely 100% recommended. Can't wait to be back!

Disgusting Service. I would never recommend this restaurant. Absolutely atrocious service, I ordered a pineapple juice (which tasted of melon, because there was a large group to cater for I assume the same jug was used without it being washed) when I asked the waitress to change my drink I was shouted at and scolded repeatedly that I didn't know what pineapple tasted like! As if that wasn't bad enough I was further addressed by the restaurant owner's wife in the same abhorrent way!! <br/><br/>And the food…………………….absolutely nothing to write home about, not the best quality and the meat was not fresh and definitely not worthy of the disgusting abuse!! Service is ghastly.............I'm surprised the restaurant still exists!!!
