Essen und Getränke in großer Auswahl und guter Qualität- sehr freundlicher, aufmerksamer Service in gemütlicher Atmosphäre. Und hat es sehr gut gefallen
Wonderful staff, delicious food… Iranian ice cream can be improved through ;) The kebabs & tea are excellent. The value for money is great. Totally Worth it.
Great food, atmosphere and staff. We really enjoyed our selves
Best Iranian restaurant in London Service and food are amazing
I absolutely loved everything and will definitely be coming back.
Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.
Without doubt the best Persian restaurant in London. Lovely service, incredible food in a cute space. Thank you team Hafez for a perfect Persian feast.
Food was average, service was really slow and inattentive with no where near enough staff.
The waiter tried to open a screw top with a cork screw, forgot our rice and portions were really small…..not a great dining experience!!!
Delicious Persian food and excellent service. The koobideh is one of the best in London!
I went with friends for dinner midweek. It was not too busy and not too quiet. The food selection was very good and everything was cooked really well. Presentation and portion size was just right. Good value for a central London restaurant. Toilets were clean too!
Beautiful restaurant, delicious food, fast and friendly service. The meat was tender and perfectly cooked, the lamb chops really are something else. The starters were delicious and so was the bread. The saffron ice cream was also great. 10/10. We'll definitely come back.
I’ve been coming here for over 10 years and have always loved the food, but lately I’ve been a bit disappointed. The portions — especially the dips — have gotten noticeably smaller and are no longer enough to share among three people like they used to be. They also got rid of the option to mix and match different dips, which was one of my favorite things on the menu.
Fantastic food and amazing service! Great vegetarian choice too! 5
The food was delicious and the atmosphere was really good. I highly recommend this Iranian Resturant.
The ambience was good and service was fast. Some minor issues. The mains came along with the starters which I found a bit odd, the fesanjan was too sweet and watery, and the mirzaghasemi lacked flavour. Other than that it was a good experience.
Go at least once a month never disappointed. Nice chianti tonight
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

Great to be back at Hafez after ten years. Nothing changed in these years having a great Persian culinary experience. Wonderfull to be back and thinking of old memories having lived in the Bayswater area for some years.
We loved the setting and decor. the waiter was very polite and helpful. The food was excellent.
A family from Italy. The woman is half Iranian. My other guests had been looked after as tour guide on a recent visit to Rome, so it was the perfect venue. And your food was so good too.
The place is nice There is good choices in the menu The food delicious
Everything was lovely yet service was a bit not will organized
