Great Persian food. We had the lamb shank and a few of the mixed grills. The chicken was a bit dry but the rest of the meat & lamb shank was delicious and succulent. Dips could have been a bit larger as we had to order a few more. The baklava and tea at the end was delightful finished off a great meal. Decor is nice inside and very clean. Staff were so helpful and friendly.

I was delighted to find an Iranian restaurant in the city of Sunderland, as it added a nice touch to my one-day trip. The staff there were kind and welcoming, and they treated me with respect. I ordered lamb chops with rice, which was very delicious and tasty, although the quality of the rice could have been better. Considering the difficulty of finding Iranian ingredients in a European country, it was acceptable. The only thing that slightly concerned me was when it came time to pay the bill, they said they only accepted cash, and I didn't have any on me. Luckily, my friend was kind enough to cover the entire bill. So, if you ever visit Sunderland, I recommend giving it a try.

Wonderful staff, so hospitable. Gorgeous food and so creatively presented. Perfect start to an evening at the theatre with friends. Have ordered on Just eat too (although quantity of food was less than served in restaurant?) But still amazing and enough to eat. I ordered the one person platter (3 kebabs with rice) and a feta salad as a side. My friend ordered a curry with rice and chocolate cake.

Beautiful food and great staff! Great value for money. The quality of food is superb We had the mixed grill (meat was sooooo tender, flavourful and juicy), some lamb chops (honestly even the onions and bell peppers in this dish were so tasty!), baklava (beautiful!) and Persian ice cream (haven't had anything like it before. Texture is unique and tastes amazing). Really recommend this place and will be visiting again. Thanks to all the staff who are so friendly and welcoming!

Had a great lunch with friends on their recommendation. From now on I'll be going here every time Whenever I want to have a good time with good meal. Absolutely amazing tastes to the food and amazing value. It was my first time & the waitress was really helpful and patient. We were given a small bowl of complementary lentil soup to start with, then had Kashk-Ebademjan with a huge naan for a starter, followed by Half chicken and Chelo Khoresh Gaimeh Badamjan-lamb, Koobideh (kofta grill) which were absolutely delicious. We end up our meal with happy faces and this all cost us £34.5. Great value, amazing tastes & very friendly waitress. Highly recommended.
