They still have shawarma, but it's hidden on the back page of the menu. Avoid it, and go with the Kebabs. I'm hooked on the Salari combo, which gives you beef (hamburger) and chicken kebabs on a bed of saffron rice (or salad). Delicious.

The restaurant sits in a strip plaza under the long shadow of Canada's first McDonalds outlet.The restaurant interior is simple with a kind of diner look. Let me say first that most Persian food I have had was not heavily seasoned and that is why you are provided with seasoning. We had the kabobs on rice beds, lemon soup, and with side Caesar salads. Both meals were hot and tasty and served quickly. It's not gourmet but healthier than McDonalds and worth the visit.

You cannot go wrong eating here, and I will always go back to this place for some home cooked goodness.

While the prices may be on the expensive side, the quality of the food is well worth it. I ordered the Sultani Kabab, Lamb Shank, and a platter for four, and all the meats were incredibly juicy and tender. This is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to for kabab and lamb dishes. The service was quick and attentive, and the garlic sauce was exceptional - I highly recommend trying it. Overall, I highly recommend visiting this restaurant if you find yourself in London.
