Zeitoun pomegranate walnut appy is great! Also the Fesengan with chicken is delicious. Both have a sour kick to them :)

You'll leave feeling like you had a warm cooked meal with old friends. Try the Malala Polo, jewelled rice w/ braised lamb shank . Fantastic!

Nam

Good food and decent prices but I felt the waitresses were not very warm which was strange as middle eastern restaurants usually have a very warm and welcoming vibe.

Fatimah

The qeymeh is excellent. Chai tea is pleasant. Basmati rice is amazing.

Sully Syed

A fairly traditional Persian (read: Iranian) cuisine spot that stands out, even on the competitive College St. restaurant strip.

The lamb , the chicken with apricots , the walnut and Lina grate with chicken

The stews were very delicious but they use the cheap basmati rice with the fake (turmeric? ) saffron.If you need persian food this a good place but improvements can be made.

Listen closely when they tell you the daily specials . The one I had was great.

Porciones bastantes generosas y los precios razonables. Pidan el takht que es una mesa especial en la parte trasera. Consta de una alfombra y cojines súper confortable , te hace sentir en Iran. Love it
