Simurhg serves Super delishious food, has friendly staff, and is reasonably priced. The decor is beautiful and gives you the feeling that you're actually in Iran! Highly recommend a visit.

That day we were looking for a place to dine and choose the Restaurant Simurgh because of tasty food. Actually, it was our third visit there in last two years. But we were really happy to find out that the food quality didn't change since our last visit. The service was very good as well. We would highly recommend it to our friends and surely will visit it again.

Outstanding Persian cuisine in an ideal location for a theatergoer to the West End. The grills are especially good, and the service is warm and attentive without being overdone.

The food is okay, if somewhat expensive, but the service is poor. There is a lack of attention to detail. Overall not a great experience.

Friendly management, prompt service, great food and homemade doogh ! This is a casual place but with a demonstrated concern for quality cuisine. Top marks !

Freindly service and fantastic Persian inspired dishes excellently executed. This is a cosy restaurant in the heart of Theatre land close to Covent Garden. Highly recommended.

This is a lovely "local feel" restaurant even though it is steps from the West End. The staff are warm and friendly, offering good advice on their menu. It would have been nice though if having booked meant that there was a nice table waiting, rather than just getting shown an available table without even asking if we have a reservation. The table layout also needs a rethink. They are very close together and the wait staff have to walk around you to get from the bar to the order desk.

Despite booking, they didn't seem to expect us. Food was better than average but not exceptional. My only real complaint is that they have Coke listed on the menu but serve Pepsi - not a big deal to most people I know but it's one of my pet hates.

the food is plentiful and tasty. The service is really good and the overall atmosphere is terrific. We have been there twice in the last week and would return readily. The wines are not that good--dont bother. Go for the food--its worth it.
