    I am glad to be trying new cuisines to be able to bring these to all and this place is a real gem.

    THE MOOD: In Finchley and easy location to travel to. Authentic interior with a large bread clay oven at the front where all the fresh nans are made. A busy environment but easy to talk and make conversation so no loud music and good acoustics.

    THE FOOD: We had the following dishes:

    Kash Bademjan - Egg plant dip and although I am not a fan usually but as this was all mashed up and mixed with other ingredients it goes well with the nan as well as the sauces that come along with this. Big enough starter to share.

    Nan - This comes along as standard as far as I can tell and worth ordering anyway as you will need to see the size of this but 1 will be enough for 2-4 of you to share. This is made fresh in clay oven and as I say this is a must.

    Chello Koubideh - Lamb kofte style with rice and you get two long kofte style pieces. Nice dish and I dont think you will finish this so be prepared for take away.

    Morassah Polo - I am told this is the the King of all Persian dishes and comes with the Persian Jewelled Rice. The rice is amazingly fragrant and comes with a splash of colours and tastes of sweetness that complements the chicken perfectly. The chicken itself is coated with a tomato coating and chicken is moist and falls off the bone, it was just perfect. You also get a curry sauce that compliments entire dish. I actually cant wait to go back here and again lots of food so again be ready for a take away.

    Tadig - This is the golden crunchy bottom rice layer, the crowning glory of all Persian rice dishes! To me this is better known as the burnt bottom of the rice, in Persian cuisine, it is much sought after!  This was served with some great soft succulent meat pieces served with an amazing sauce with beans and some fries. A sharing dish again and worth trying but then maybe hold off on a starter.

    THE VERDICT: A good place to come and actually I ordered too much but even with enough food for three maybe four the price is reasonable and food is tasty and great atmosphere with friendly staff. Ok you pack your own doggy bag but that's ok. I would recommend a visit.

    £50.00 for two

    What an amazing experience we had today. Everything was so delicious. The food came reasonably fast and we were amazed by how much food you get compared to other restaurants for the same price. That hot fresh bread from the oven was so yummy. The service was very good, servers were very polite. Overall we are so happy with our first experience at this restaurant today. We will definitely go back

    Really good food. Took a family here.
    The combo kebab plates are excellent. Good flavor
    Start with the greens + feta
    Bathrooms are dirty.

    I've had a couple of meals here and they've been good.  however, the boyfriend has not been impressed at all, so that splits the opinion a bit.  Service is good though.  Be mindful if you do want a lager with your dinner you can't as they don't serve alcohol.  The last time we went there were loads of people there, so it can't be that bad.  Although it seemed a bit hectic.  I'll go back again, maybe with the girls the next time!

    There is some very nice food here and the portions are quite generous. The grill platters are really good. However, I have tried a few "duds" and thus the only 4 out of 5 stars. The service is efficient and don't bother you. The atmosphere if very cosy. Also, they have a large vegetarian selection which is nice.
