    We waited a lot to have the food and the naan. The naan was a normal piadina Italian cold. The food was dry. I asked for a sauce not spicy and they give me one spicy. I brought it back and told the waitress that was spicy and he told me was not true. I asked for an other sauce and he told me he didn't have an other. I can't eat spicy food and and so my stomach was burning and I couldn't eat more. How can I eat a dry rice? I know Iranian food and this is not Iranian food. Only the ice cream was ok. The waitress told me that I didnt have to pay the naan as it was served very later but then it was on the invoice. So I asked what about it and he took away the naan. If you think that this is a good restaurant.. please dont go there.

    Not a huge variety of food offered and even that which was offered, was not great. Setting appeared to be side of a community centre rather than a restaurant in the traditional sense.

    It's not a fancy restaurant, but the food is amazing and it's really Persian! Don't miss the jojeh kebab (chicken).

    Very authentic and delicious Persian food, the lamb and shank is very tender and the grilled meats are just perfect.

    Really good restaurant, dishes very well cooked with a profusion of flavours. Only negative point is the decor that could really use an upgrade.

    I’m not an expert on Persian food. In fact, this was my first ever Iranian Culinary experience. I thought the food was delicious and a fantastic price.

    It was my second time there, and as was the first time this second time was amazing! My friends loved it that I booked there ! Food is simply delicious and service too, we got served wine in a traditional wine service, he explained to us a bit about the history! I had the mixed grill dish with Chicken, Lamb and Veal and the meat is so tasty and awesome that it just melts in your mouth straight away. Nothing else to say apart from that I will be back at the end of August for my Birthday! The owner even gave us a 1 euro voucher on our next dish for next time! Go there it's great !
