Cuisine succulante & service 5 étoile, nous avions l'impression d'avoir voyagé en Iran l'espace de quelques instants surtout avec une belle décoration intérieur. Je recommande !

Fast (10min) delicious food with nice presentation in a pretty atmosphere (relaxing clean terrace, welcoming & sweet staff). Couldn't ask for a more ideal lunch break. I had the eggplant ragout (Fessenjan) & I plan on coming back to try more vegetarian options :) the first time I stepped in here just to look at the menu, the woman at the counter gave me a yummy Persian smoothie sampler. They have vegan gluten-free pastries.
Edit/ returned to try the kashkbademjan, another eggplant & yogurt dish, & it was incredible. Came back again to have the smoked eggplant omelette with the parfumerie de la vie tea & it was really nice. Sekanjebine & concombre drink was really good. Matcha smoothie was good. I had the do piazeh (potato dish) recently & it was delish. The berry pistachio omelette was simple but well done with subtle Persian flavour. Will defs keep coming back. Came back & had the smoked eggplant omelette & it was so good!
