Customer Review Summary
Kebabs are the draw at Anahita, with Iranian-style kubideh, barg and jojeh served with rice, grilled tomato and salad, alongside lamb shish and chicken shish. Reviewers describe the meat as juicy, tender and cooked to perfection, and one calls the kubideh unreal with a generous portion. Close behind is the salad, which one diner calls the best they have eaten in the UK, and the rice, described as fluffy with a buttery taste. One reviewer says they are now addicted to the bread. Service is repeatedly called friendly and attentive, with a waitress who knew the menu well and recommended dishes, and a server who made sure nobody waited for anything. One family booked a graduation lunch, and the staff arranged a cake on request. The family platter comfortably fed six. Reviewers also mention a welcoming atmosphere and being asked about allergies. No complaints appear, though one diner hopes for an online takeaway menu for collection orders. That asking about allergies was a first for one reviewer.

“We had my sister’s graduation lunch here, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment I made the booking right through to our arrival. I had asked if they could help arrange a cake for the celebration, and they were more than happy to accommodate the request, making the occasion even more special. The food was absolutely superb. We ordered the family platter, which was more than enough to comfortably serve six people, and everything was fresh, flavourful, and beautifully prepared. We also tried a few other dishes, and every single one tasted amazing. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a warm, family-friendly atmosphere. We’ll certainly be back!”
