Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I was overcharged at a restaurant and they refused to refund me, I have talked to the owner and he was so rude to me, no respect to the customers, day light robbery, please avoid this place.

Tasty authentic persian food. Amazing portions. Affordable Prices. Welcoming and helpful staff. The decor is so traditional and beautiful. Truly Underrated!

Four stars for the food. Despite the printed menu (always a warning that not all the ingredients are fresh) the traditional Persian dishes were well cooked and - frankly - delicious. I specially enjoyed the hot aubergine entree, Kashk Bademjan. Businesslike management, tolerable decor. Shipshape...lounge. Low Persian tables optional.More

The minced lamb kabab quality was not good. Starter" Kashk Bademjan" - not sufficient Kashk and fried peppermint o top. Momtaz 1 portion was good. Dizi's quality was very poor and not recommended. Mostly, tomato paste and some beans. It's way far from a dizi...food.More

I have to say their fresh bread is dry as the Sahara desert a bit more flower and water to make it softer would go down well

Customer service was very bad , didn’t feel welcomed into the restaurant and staff very very rude to us as we had children and made us feel uncomfortable by their behaviour. They have a little sitting space downstairs for smoking Shisha and they allow children...down there which is obviously not legal. Food is pretty average. When we told them about the rude staff they said don’t come back then . So NO we don’t recommend this place to anyone.More

Had dined in there but didn’t really liked it , every stews get microwaved so that really tells you all about it, maybe a handful of Persian restaurants produce fresh foods.

I've been before and they must have kept my details because they sent me a message on my 'phone to let me know that they had a great deal going on. I went there and the food had the same extremely generous portion sizes as...ever! It was completely delicious and very healthy. They had a great deal of choice for vegetarians. The price was even more reasonable than normal as they had that special discount going! I love the Iranian interior décor - beautufully done! The members of staff I spoke to were so polite and helpful. Te woman who handed me my lovely food waited while I got my stuff together to say "goodbye" to me as I left - so polite! I am now feeling rather full... I'd recommend that place to anyone. Motshakeram - tnankyou! :)More

Cheap, rubbish and extremely rude and arrogant owner and manager. Food arrived nearly 1 hour late. Cold and tasteless. Unprofessional customer service. The staff including the owner and manager makes you feel so uncomfortable there. You can hear them talking bad about you. Try Senator...Iranian restaurant in North London. Absolutely amazing food and service,you won't regret it.More

I went there with my family yesterday we didn’t get bad service because we were one of two families there. We sat on a bed which was nice but it looked tired and I felt like the upholstery needed deep cleaning. We had the mixed...grill. Definitely average and I’ve had much better Persian food elsewhere. I did enjoy the ribs though. No sauces were offered with the food and when asked for chilli sauce she brought me siracha? Yes it’s chilli sauce however I’m used to freshly made sauces at restaurants makes a huge difference. The freshly pressed juices weren’t great. The plates were not cleaned to a high standard. The naan was nice and that’s about it. I definitely think this restaurant has potential but the owners are stuck in a time warp. I don’t think I’ll be going back unless it’s had a revamp and the food quality improves.More
