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.

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.

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!

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.

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

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
