Had to catch up with a mate and decided to link up in Selly Oak and I found this gem of a restaurant. After reading the recents reviews I had to come here so phoned the establishment and was able to get a last minute booking for two. We ordered the Mixed Skewers platter for 2 with a mixture of skewers and wings and I most say I enjoyed the beef Koohideh skewers the most. We both agreed that this place does authentic Persian food. You can’t go wrong; give it a try:)
Wonderful restaurant hidden out of sight, so unless you know it's there or it's recommended you may miss it.
The flavours are awesome with the cooked perfectly, this is a definite go to place
This is a lovely intimate family run Persian restaurant and a favourite of ours at the moment. We went on a Friday evening 6:30, and it wasn't too busy so it was easy to chat to our friends. The menu isn't huge but the quality is good. Red/ White wine was £20, again only a small choice but perfectly acceptable. Food was £15-25 so not too pricey. It worked out to £25 a head all in all. Well worth the slightly higher prices than we would sometimes pay ..
Had a really good time here the food was delicious and generous portions, and the service was good everything arrived very quickly.
Nice place and tasty food. A good place for family or spending night out with friends for a nice meal.
They have a good costumer service and very friendly staff.
--- The only down side is the prices are a bit more expensive to compare with other same places in the UK.
Also the menus need an update and a fresh design. They look that they haven't been changed for a long time!
First time and we were presently surprised. Amazing authentic food, great service and very affordable price.
First time eating here food was delicious! Couldn’t fault it menu’s easy to work out, starters aren’t so impressive but main meal sharing platter is a good call if you want to work out which is your favourite meal, holds a lot of flavour and extremely filling! Will be returning
It's the second time eating here. And the food is amazing and service is fantastic. Would definitely recommend, very good value too. Will be back again soon.
Really good. We dropped in without a reservation, and luckily they could accommodate us. Amazing food and really good service. It was a lucky find!

I was told about this small restaurant in Selly Oak by my friend who visited this week. I did a pick up order. Ordered online through the website. Went to pick up the food 20 minutes later (amazingly fast). As I went in to collect the food the first thing that I saw was the beautiful interior, the place looked 10/10. After looking around I loved that there was an open kitchen that you could look and watch the chefs making your food (the kitchen looked so clean and fresh, it made me even more excited for my food). After being greeted by the friendly waiter, he grabbed my order, then proceeded to hold open the door for me to leave. For a pickup order I felt like the 5 minutes of just picking up the food was perfect service.
Once I got home I felt that the food package was still very hot. I opened the food to the best aroma's ever. I had ordered the Koobideh Skewer, with fresh mixed salad and rice. It was amazing the rice was soft and fluffy, the lamb skewer juicy and full of flavour. I was given two amazing sauces alongside the meal. A yellow one which was buttery with hints of coriander and an amazing tomato one. (I would love to find out what these dips are called for next time! ). And the garlic naan was unreal, full of garlic very soft and really complimented the dish.
All in all, this order was the best pick up order I've had in a long time. This place is a hidden gem in Selly Oak 10/10. I can't wait to dine in next time!
Famous Persian hospitality with very attentive and welcoming staff. A pleasant easy going vibe made the delicious food even tastier. For a BBQ style platter everything was juicy and seasoned perfectly. The minced lamb was a little too salty but otherwise the food was a perfect treat.
Will look forward to visiting again.
Food is delicious as always. Service was not bad except delivering the wrong mains to our table at first but it's fine. Atmosphere is really nice as well and I absolutely love it. Will come back for proper grill chicken n rice again :))
PS, the lime ginger and honey is sooooo good that literally reminded me of our Chinese traditional fruit tea!! It's even better cuz the taste of ginger added a unique warm and spicy element even tho it's cold drink
Great restaurant, I had a Paprika grill which was lovely. The meat (lamb) was cooked perfectly, the rice was light & full of flavour. Staff are friendly & helpful & I would definitely go back. Meal for 6 of us was £120 which is pretty good. Only thing is the it's £2.50 for a can of Coke which I think is a bit steep.
Food is amazingly good, first time I've been here, visited 10th September. I will be returning. Booking is a must. Its easily the best of this food type I have experienced in Birmingham.
After a slight mix up with my online order not going through, the staff at the restaurant were really helpful and apologetic (not necessary as they were not at fault!). We were able to sit in the warm to wait whilst our order was prepared. The food was so tasty, the rice especially is so good!
Thankyou!
Amazing restaurant. Lovely food, atmosphere, decor and good prices on food. Parking is by side where you pay by phone if street parking is full
Food very nice and tasty. Portions are very good. The nut and Crombie rice is lovely. All meat is tender. Staff very helpful
