Customer Review Summary
The main caveat comes from a three-star review, which found the food only alright and not like Persian cooking elsewhere. That reviewer felt the bread resembled Indian naan, the rice differed from traditional spots, and the dishes lacked any real kick. Several others describe the cooking as authentic and full of flavour, and one says the recipes feel like a family's. One reviewer notes that the hospital car park around the corner is cheap and suggests reserving a table.

“Cozy restaurant with absolutely delicious food. Great quality ingredients, I particularly loved the chicken breast with pomegranate sauce, it was the most tender chicken I've had! The staff are delightful and very friendly, the bastani with some Persian tea was a great way to wrap up a wonderful meal.”

“An amazing night at Poemgranate! So glad I chose this restaurant. Has an amazing ambience and great selection of food. We had the hummus and olives to start which were lovely, especially the hummus. The mains were also fabulous. Would 100% recommend to anyone in Didsbury for a warm, tasty meal with great atmosphere!”
