We do like this place. Nice, informal, persian cuisine. A range of freshly cooked food that appeals to all ages and is cooked excellently - moist chicken and juicy lamb with traditional rice or stews. Freshly cooked bread from the tandoor is a delight. All good.

Great food and really welcoming.

The starters are very good prices and the bread is freshly backed at front of restaurant in a very impressive home made oven. We had the mixed grill and plenty to share. Meat was cooked to perfection.

The staff are very friendly at it is family run place. Give them some slack having friends at a table. This is a cultural thing and you will find that in Persian culture anyone is made to feel welcome and looked after, not just people who patronise and bring money. They have wine list and you can also BYO, best of both worlds.

Booking recommended and I found it accommodating and professional. Could not do enough for you.

My experience and highly rated.

I went to this Persian restaurant a few days ago encouraged by the good reviews I saw on this site. The decor was rustic, perhaps too rustic - but that was not the issue. The staff and a couple of their friends were sitting at a table at the back which nin my opinion is always a sign of unprofessional service. The main problem was however the food. The rice had a bad taste as if not washed properly before cooking and of inferior quality and the starters were very small and not particularly freshly made. Finally their website says you can bring your own wine but when we got there they had a wine list!

Really love this place, but it is small and gets busy so at weekends best to book. Food is really good, the portions are not massive but I think they are still good sizes. I have tried a lot of the menu now and enjoyed it all.

The place is a treat, it looks lovely and it is warm and welcoming.

My present favourite for Persian food.

Exceptional little restaurant with a buzzy atmosphere any day of the week, homemade bread made right in front of you and delicious, good value dishes. Kofta the best i've had for a long time. Judging by the busyness of the place many of the Sheen locals seem to agree.

Great little eatery of the sort very rarely found in this country and particularly in London. Simple, cheap but delicious food in a basic but warm and friendly (staff too) environment. Definitely recommended.
