Nice restaurant with very attentive and friendly staff. Dishes were well prepared and presented with a good number of vegetarian options. I found the dish I had (grilled halloumi) a little over sweet to my taste, but otherwise very good.
Took my wife for her birthday, food is excellent and the staff was great! highly recommended, we had a great night, many thanks to everybody.
Lovely tasty food good atmosphere. Staff brilliant enjoyable night will definitely go again in the very near future. Also very good value for money thanks
The service was amazing, the food was amazing too. Five people all fed and watered for a very reasonable price, there was so much food too.
Superb meal and very good value. Would definitely use again and recommend to others. Within walking distance of the city centre and good pubs in the surrounding area.
Great food and service - lovely people. Could do with a good extractor fan as we all came home smelling of smoke and bbq which isn’t ideal if you are going on after dinner.
Epic food, fantastic service from a friendly team, a great atmosphere and great value for money. Well worth a visit - a real Nottingham gem.
Great choice of food. The sharing platter had a nice selection. Dips were beautiful. King prawns massive. A really friendly team. Would definitely come here again.
Great food and friendly atmosphere. Chefs asked if we enjoyed the food which was a nice added touch and flavours werer very interesting and unique.
Great food, great staff and will definitely be back. There's loads of great dip options to start and the king prawn main course was fantastic!
Lovely food and the staff were just as nice. I had the Tangy Stew (Lamb) a traditional Persian (Iranian) dish. Very nice. Will definitely go back. This restaurant will grow quickly so get there and try its delights while they are at their rawest best.
We had a lovely Valentine’s Day at pistachio, the staff were very nice and accommodating and the food was delicious, we particularly enjoyed the halloumi bites and cheesecake. We will definitely be coming back
Went with a party of five celebrating a wedding anniversary. Excellent friendly service, food good especially the dips. We had a selection of five dips that we shared. Great homemade puddings.
Fantastic food and beautifully served. Would definitely recommend. But reserve as it was packed on Tuesday evening. The butternut, plum and tamarind stew was particularly tasty.
amazing place. really good food, really friendly service. one of the best meals out had out in ages! Also really balanced menu when going out with a mix of vegetarian and meat eating friends.
There was an amazing choice of food The food itself was beautiful The service was great the staff were really friendly and helpful A great night to celebrate our anniversary
The best eating out experience for me is good food, a welcoming environment, and staff that treat me like a welcome guest not just a customer. Pistachio delivered all of these again! The food is fresh, interesting, tasty and beautifully presented. The restaurant is small, clean, bright and warm (important on a cold winter’s night). The staff are wonderful - they make time for a chat which I love when eating alone and they are proud of their restaurant and always working to improve it.
Fantastic service with amazing tasty food would highly recommend this place
Fabulous night! Small, family run restaurant with great atmosphere and wonderful food. The dips were amazing and the lamb and aubergine stew was so tasty! Would definitely recommend this restaurant!
Food 10/10 Service 11/10 What wonderful staff (including the owners) truly outstanding, can’t wait to go back!! Prompt and friendly but not overbearing, excellent and knowledgeable recommendations, got to try dishes before ordering, and reasonably priced.
Excellent food.... literally nothing on the menu not worth eating.....staff and the owner were also really helpful. Will definately be back in the future. Keep up the good work guys!
Loved the food and the service was second to none. Would definitely come back again, just for the wonderful dips and the delicious Persian ice creams
Amazing restaurant! Food was absolutely delicious with some very unique flavours. One of my new favourite in Nottingham! We will definitely be back with my family and friends.
This place is amazing. Service is fantastic lovely atmosphere and the food is so good. Went for my husbands birthday and they even surprised us with a cake and the whole restaurant sang happy birthday to him. You have to go and experience this fantastic gem of a restaurant. The loaded hummus is incredible.
Great food and service An unexpected hidden gem on the edge of town Well worth a visit Good range of savoury dishes Desserts limited but too full to be disappointed Would have liked a more comprehensive wine selection
Delicious food and friendly staff. We had the aubergine and walnut hot dip and the pistachio, feta and yogurt dip; the lamb tangy herb, and the aubergine and split pea stews; and the baklava and saffron, rose water and pistachio ice cream. It was our first time trying Persian food and we loved everything!
Food was excellent, great flavours and variety and the service was friendly (genuine) and attentive. Minor issue is that hard surfaces (walls, floor, furniture) mean that there is nothing to absorb noise on a busy evening.
Super friendly and fantastic food! We had mixed starters and different stews, we could even try the sauces before we ordered. Highly recommend, I will definitely go again!
Excellent food and service. The dips are really nice, particularly the feta and pustachio. The Lamb and prune stew was really tasty. The staff were all very attentive. Highly recommend.
The food was delicious and the service was both attentive and friendly. Dips were particularly incredible. We look forwards to returning! Thank you for a great night.
Lovely food and staff. Incredibly noisy, to the point I couldn’t hear the other person at my table talk. Only one toilet for all staff and patrons led to queuing
Pistachio is a gem of a place. It's a little out of town but worth making the effort to get to. The staff were super friendly on my first visit last night. The food was delicious and well presented. There are traditional Persian favourites plus other dishes with a contemporary twist. I had a hummus starter sprinkled with roasted chickpeas and pomegranate seeds served with flatbread followed by the lamb meatballs in a delicious piquant sauce served with saffron rice. It was all really tasty. My friend and I also had a lovely gin and pomegranate cocktail. I noticed that there were plenty of veggy and vegan choices on the menu too which I thought was good. I will be back
Friendly staff, we weren't rushed or left waiting, clean, really nice food (the sour cherry lamb meatballs are delicious), good presentation and a really nice atmosphere in the restaurant overall. Will definitely be going back.
Fabulous local restaurant. Clean, contemporary décor; amazingly fresh, colourful food with palette pleasing flavours, and the gin cocktails are delicious! After a wonderful starter of assorted dips and plentiful warm flatbread, we didn't manage to finish our mains, which were swiftly packed into takeaway containers - tomorrow's lunch sorted! Perfect.
I have not tried Persian food before but I love it. Food and service were great. The atmosphere was also good. I will definitely come back again.
The staff are very helpful and friendly staff. The food is gorgeous, and there is a good choice for vegetarians/vegans. We go on a Saturday night, and it is very busy, so definitely recommend booking in advance. Nice leisurely meal, no rush to have to leave the table.
Great food and service. Good choice of dips to start with and delicious stews for meat eaters or vegetarians. Aromatic tea to finish the meal. Would definitely recommend.
Delicious food, great choice, excellent service and attention. Will definitely be going again. ............ ....... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ...... ..
I really enjoyed my visit. The food was delicious and the staff very pleasant! The smoked aubergines were incredible and the dips were amazing!! I highly recommend it!
Great service, great food and a great price. We went here prior to an event at Motorpoint Arena and it's just a short walk to the venue. We were really pleased with our choice and would definitely recommend.
