Hafez

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Hafez. The food was delicious, with an impressive variety of options. Our group included a vegetarian, a ‘fussy eater’, a meat lover and even a ‘snacker’, and every single one of us left genuinely satisfied. The service was outstanding from start to finish. We were so well looked after, and a few of us who stayed on after dinner were served a fantastic wine, with the team checking in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed, something that feels increasingly rare when restaurants are busy. We truly felt like valued customers. And to top it all off, the interior design is absolutely beautiful , a real must-see! Highly recommended.

Delicious food, friendly and helpful staff, comfortable atmosphere, highly recommend,

Great food, parking wasn’t the best and waitress wasn’t too pushy but observant. Wasn’t a long wait between starter and main either. Decor was something I’ve never seen before. Pretty much not ordinary. Had a good time.

Great spot, been here many times and I love it here.

We Loved the food! The staff were super friendly .

Thank you !!! …..great prompt service and most of all, delicious food ! Great cozy place for family and friends, with a very Persian ambiance which we love ! Highly recommend.

As always amazing food. Service a bit slow and we had to keep doing the asking

Delicious food served with a great professionalism in a wonderful quirky location

Very good food and wine. Also impressed by friendly services

Everything was WONDERFUL! AJ was a great waiter that went above and beyond. Can't wait to return! The food was excellent, and a great vibe

Delicious as always! Another enjoyable visit to our favourite local spot!

We've been coming to Hafez since 1989 and have always enjoyed the food and pleasant setting. It was unusually busy today and a bit noisy as there was a screaming baby at the table next to us, but this was not the restaurant's fault (nor the parents - they did eventually take the baby outside until it had stopped crying). Food was very nice, freshly cooked and well seasoned, although I'd have liked more lamb in my khoresht ghaimeh bademjan. The staff were pleasant and courteous.

The food was excellent and the interior is very charming. Staff were friendly and professional. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Thank you.

Love this place, never disappointed. Love the salade olivieh and baba ganoush. And we also orders the lamb grill and Thorne Sabziane wine! Yum! Lovely air conditioned spot too thanks for a great evening
