Customer Review Summary
Grilled meat anchors the praise, with diners singling out the mixed grill platter and the chicken and lamb skewers as tender, juicy and full of flavour, and one crediting a pomegranate sauce marinade. Close behind are the starters: hummus described as fresh and seasoned with what seemed like paprika, crispy cheese rolls filled with melted cheese, and naan. One reviewer also praises the tea blend. Several mention big portions and food served hot and fresh, and one long-time regular says portions have grown more generous recently. Staff are described as friendly, attentive and fast, with one reviewer noting a woman who kept checking that the food satisfied everyone. The atmosphere is called calm under slightly dimmed light by one reviewer and vibrant by another. One reviewer found a Saturday evening very busy and suggests booking, adding that it is BYOB with a decent selection of soft drinks, while another reports no wait. Two birthday diners describe staff bringing out dessert, one with a candle and one a slice of cheesecake, and singing Happy Birthday.

“I can’t recommend Classic Persian enough. For starters, we had the naan and hummus. For main we had the chicken skewer (no.6) and the lamb and chicken skewers and all tasted amazing. We had Jemal serve us who was friendly and attentive! You will have to book as it was very busy (Saturday night at 6pm) and it’s BYOB but they have a decent selection of soft drinks. Sadly we couldn’t try the desserts as we were so full from the mains. Do yourself a favour and get yourself to this lovely restaurant.”

“The food was absolutely excellent, packed with flavour, and served fresh. The service was equally impressive. Our waiters, Mohammed and Kieron, were completely on point and incredibly fast. They made sure we had everything we needed without any delay. Highly recommended, and we will definitely be back!”
