The menu is packed with delicious vegan options, making it a standout choice for plant-based diners. We started with the mixed starter platter, and it was absolutely divine—every bite bursting with flavor. The main courses were equally impressive, each dish crafted with care and rich, aromatic spices. For dessert, the baklava was perfection—not too juicy, not too sweet, just the right balance of crispy layers and tasty goodness. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, almost like dining in someone’s cozy living room. The service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food. If you love Persian cuisine or are looking for a vegan-friendly restaurant with soul, Zarathustra is a must-visit.

These are not so large, but very cozy and authentic rooms. Clean and quiet. The food was ready in 20 minutes and tasted very delicious. We like to come back.

As a German I have the feeling of immersing in a completely different world where I am very welcome. Like a small holiday from everyday life. Only the wet cells and the outer area could be modernized.
