"We've been here with a group of friends on Valentine's day 2017 - by choosing the date for our monthly Stammtisch (where we always try out new restaurants) we unfortunately fully underestimated the influence of this special day.When we arrived at the restaurant it was very busy and filled to capacity - but "luckily" we have had pre-ordered a table for ten persons. But to our astonishment two of the ten reserved seats have already been occupied by an foreign couple that did not belong to our group - and therefore initially caused some inconveniences as there were not enough seats available for us. The Service:After finally being seated we had to wait 30 minutes for someone to take our orders. Then, another 20 minutes later, our starters were served before the drinks arrived at the table – sad to say but all in all not very well organised.The waiters serving us seemed to be unlearned and overchallenged with their work in the beginning and as a result quite inattentive. Later in the evening – with less business - this changed fortunately.The Atmosphere: When we’ve been at Persia Restaurant it was very crowded and loud, so that conversations were only possible with your seat neighbour next to you.In addition to that, we’ve missed some ‘cosy’, more separated sitting areas which generate kind of a feel-good or comfort zone. The Food:For us the food was a relatively new and really good taste adventure!We have had “Kuku Sabzi” (No. 9, kind of a very herbal pancake) as a starter, which my wife and me enjoyed very much whereas a friend of ours didn’t like it.Our main courses then were “Djudje Tehroni” (no. 69, grilled chicken) and “Djudje Soltani Tehroni” (no. 71, grilled chicken and minced meat). The meat of both dishes were very good marinated and offered with basmati rice, grilled vegetables and a relatively sweet pomegranate-sauce, which I could recommend.Whether the sauce would be worth the difference of about 4 Euros compared to the same dish without sauce, one needs to decide for him-/herself …The Prices: For the “exotic exclusivity” as well as the quality and quantity offered we consider the prices to be adequate but relatively pricy.My personal Conclusion:Despite the fact that I’ve somehow missed the “customer satisfaction first - profit maximisation second” spirit on this evening we as a group had a nice evening with good food and talks.Service in the beginning unfortunately was poor but improved during the evening – in this regard: thanks for the complimentary signature shot on the house!Presumably we will give them a second try - but next time definitely not on a holiday or Valentine’s day ..."

"We, a party of 8 people with a reservation, had an awful experience with the manager this evening. We ordered our food ,2 mixed platters of meat and various cold appetizers) and after an hour and 15 minutes almost nothing had arrived. We asked twice if the food was almost done as we were getting hungry, only to be given a surly answer by the waitress that the kitchen has the order already . Eventually we asked if we could speak to the manager, who flew into a rage in front of all the other guests in the restaurant. She held the order slip from the kitchen in her hand and said how can we expect our food to be ready after an hour on a busy Friday evening . I must stress that we only asked to speak to her and we did not act in an aggressive way toward her. Her behaviour was shameful and unprofessional. It is especially ashame as it was my friend 's birthday celebration. Wir, eine Gruppe von 8 Personen mit Reservierung, hatten heute Abend ein schreckliches Erlebnis mit der Managerin. Wir bestellten unser Essen ,2 gemischte Fleischplatten und verschiedene kalte Vorspeisen) und nach einer Stunde und 15 Minuten war fast nichts angekommen. Wir fragten zweimal, ob das Essen fast fertig sei, als wir hungrig wurden, nur um von der Kellnerin eine mürrische Antwort zu bekommen, dass die Küche bereits die Bestellung hat . Schließlich fragten wir, ob wir mit der Managerin sprechen könnten, der vor allen anderen Gästen im Restaurant in Wut geriet. Sie hielt den Bestellschein aus der Küche in der Hand und sagte: Wie können wir erwarten, dass unser Essen nach einer Stunde an einem Freitagabend so schnell fertig wird . Ich muss betonen, dass wir nur darum gebeten haben, mit ihr zu sprechen, und dass wir nicht aggressiv gegenüber ihr gehandelt haben. Ihr Verhalten war beschämend und unprofessionell. Es ist besonders beschämend, da es die Geburtstagsfeier meiner Freundin war."
