I also asked the staff beforehand to make sure it suited my taste, and it was exactly as they described. The meat was tender, juicy, and completely free of any unpleasant odor or fat. Be sure to try the walnut yogurt and the doogh!

The service was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely delicious. It's a shame we didn't know about this restaurant sooner. Highly recommended! Note: Cash only!

The first negative thing was that we were informed 24 hours before the appointment that they would only accept cash payments. Quite unusual for a restaurant on Zülpicher Platz. The service was polite and really helpful. Unfortunately the food wasn't to everyone's taste, but that's something that can be argued about. Unfortunately the issue of adding seasoning etc. was a problem, as they didn't take this into account and so the food remained bland. The prices for drinks really shocked us. They were steep. All in all the evening was lovely, as the restaurant was really nicely decorated.

Very nice restaurant, the meat is very tender and the staff is really very nice. read more Very nice restaurant, the meat is very tender and the staff is really very nice.

This restaurant is truly one of the best in the world. The design feels like the cozy home of an Iranian hostess—it gives off more of a warm dinner party vibe than a typical restaurant, and I absolutely loved that. The family running the place was incredibly kind—from the lady working in the dining area to her son, who was in the kitchen cooking (he even came out to greet me and say welcome, which was such a lovely gesture). We tried almost every dish, and each one was more delicious than the last. The starters were served with freshly baked barbari bread, which I really enjoyed. And please, please try their homemade doogh—it was fantastic! If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Everything was perfect. Thank you! I truly hope that one day, in a free Iran, I’ll be able to come to your restaurant there.
