"I have not been in this restaurant in a while and I am glad it keeps surprising me as it did my first time! The aubergine was so crispy like a potato chip. The shawarma was delicious! We tried two dips and both were to dive for! The service was attentive and the prices are reasonable. Can't wait to gain my appetite again!"

"Best Middle Eastern Restaurant in the whole of Scotland. Bringing Authentic Iranian Cuisine. Atmosphere is Amazing! With a historic theme. The menu is a variety of everything. The only downside is the atmosphere with almost everyone drinking alcohol. But everything was almost perfect. Amazing Banging Food!! (Halal)"

"Great spot for Persian food! The staff were nice and friendly and the ambiance was cozy and inviting, with a nice traditional vibe. The saffron chicken was super flavorful and tender, and the special chicken kebab was juicy and perfectly grilled. We finished with the saffron ice cream—fragrant, creamy, and the perfect end to the meal. Definitely coming back for more."
