Nice place great food . Strongly suggested..real Persian food from Persian owner

We love the Mirza Ghasemi starter , fresh flat bread, and today we tried the lamb stew with prunes and spinach !! My wife s choice and I thought ‘no way ‘ but it was delicious and went beautifully with the rice and chefs veggy stew . Really great food and always well made . My favorite restaurant for 15 years and definitely still as good .

Lovely food, helpful waitresses. We had a very pleasant evening’s dining.

A family celebration. Quiet table upstairs. Loved the food which arrived quickly. Good service. We plan to return.

This was our first visit to A Taste of Persia. The staff were friendly and welcoming and the food was delicious. The restaurant downstairs was very small. We didn’t get a chance to see upstairs. Would definitely return.

Utterly delicious and terrific value, highly recommended one of the best eaterys in the Toon

The best Persian/Middle Eastern restaurant in Newcastle, always consistently good with fantastic flatbreads & grills!

The food was absolutely delicious and the service was fantastic. So reasonably priced we would definitely return to this restaurant.

Lovely food very reasonably priced. Nice helpful staff. Good atmosphere.

First time myself and partner have been here and the first time we’ve tried Persian food. The food was phenomenal and can’t really say much more. I don’t drink and the non alcoholic drinks are very sparse but that’s the only downside. Will definitely go back again.

Visited for a business lunch here, great price and service. Food was lovely as well.

Amazing food at great value and a really great service

Great restaurant with a good vegetarian range and good location

Very pleasant, good food, good price. Helpful staff. Would go again

We were a group of 7 people and didn't have to wait a long time to get all the dishes. The waiter gave useful recommendations to help us choose as none of us had been to a Persian restaurant before. The food was delicious!

Lovely food and the decor has been tastefully upgraded - lovely all round.

Party of 6 eating there for the first time just before a show at the arena. Everything was seriously amazing, the starters, the grills and the herb basmati rice which was one of my favourites. We all had puds too, the walnut and date ice cream finished me off nicely! The staff are all lovely and we will most definitely be back soon.

Fresh and tasty food at a great price with lovely staff.

lovely food excellent service from a very helpful waitress, will use again

Lovely food good prices. Service with a smile will definitely be back.

Lovely place nice and cosy and quiet, staff all very friendly and very good service would reccommend

Brillant value for money. Loved the choie of foods. 1st time visit will be coming back.

We always have a fantastic visit. Went for a birthday treat and one again they did not disappoint. Probably one of my favourite restaurants in Newcastle.

1st visit to this restaurant. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Only downside was that we were seated downstairs next to the door, but I guess we just drew the short straw on that one. Definitely recommend and will be going back

fantastic meal and brilliant service. Will definitely be returning. The lamb meatballs were the highlight of the meal. For desert the saffron ice-cream for amazing.

Delightful staff. Very personal welcome. Good advice by serving staff on menu option. Delicious food. Permitted to relax and not be rushed. Would definitely return!!!!

Excellent food, excellent service. Great value for money! Visited on Wednesday night. Can’t wait to return - we love both the Newcastle and Jesmond venue. 5 stars

Good value early evening set menu with a choice of several starters and main courses. Efficient friendly waitress. Would definitely go back again hopefully soon !

Small and cosy restaurant, friendly staff and amazing food. We had some starters to share and it was the best hummus I’ve ever had! Tasty food and great value. Would definitely recommend and we will be visiting again.

Great food, fresh and interesting and lots of vegetarian choices. Good atmosphere and lots to choose from. Reasonable prices and great service. Good location - I'd definitely recommend Taste of Persia.

My first experience of Persian food. It was lovely- Ienjoyed everything I had- we were a party of 7 who shared lots of starters. I had grilled prawns (I am not a meat eater) and they were delicious. Excellent service

Lovely meal at a very reasonable price. We were made to feel welcome as the staff were very friendly. We would definitely eat there again.

Food was absolutely amazing and service was great. Everything arrived quickly. Meat was tender and it all tasted delicious. Definitely recommend! We will be back again.

Nice food and friendly staff. Atmosphere good. Busy at 6.00pm so would recommend booking. Only down side is that there are not many vegetarian choices for main course.

Excellent service from start to finish. The menu was just right enough choices. The food was amongst some of the tastiest I've had in a while and good portions. Would highly recommend.

Very special restaurant and really tasty food using Persian culinary skills. Well worth a visit and widely appreciated by those in the know about the restaurant. Highly recommended. The owner demonstrates high standards from his team and he engaged with us throughout our dining experience. The food is prepared with great care and attention to detail. The fish tasted just wonderful and I can recall the saffron dusting the fish ever so lightly. The baklava was just wonderful with the rose flavour following the initial bite. Wow! Our taxi driver was also raving about the food on our journey home!

The food was wonderful and staff are really friendly. They even suggested a different side to better accompany my main course and wasn’t disappointed. You’ll struggle to find lamb as nice as this anywhere else

Delicious food and excellent service. The bread and hummus were better than any we had in the Middle East. Had one grill and one stew and both were extremely tasty. Also had Baklava and saffron ice cream and these were fabulous.

Amazing food and fab service will be back soon too try the rest of the menu , service was great fast and friendly , food was great quality too

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch today at A Taste of Persia. The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and the staff were delightful. A memorable experience!

Great food, very well priced and the staff are attentive, polite and friendly. Would recommend wholeheartedly and will definitely be going back now that I’ve finally tried it!
