Sirous Steak Persian Cuisine - London

When you see an empty restaurant ask yourself why? I ordered the meals and waited for the free bread, only to find you have to pay for it unlike most restaurants in London, add to that No salad garnish with the mains, plus No free Turkish delight or Baklava with the bill, and now for the bad news, My wife ordered Ghorme sabzi polo after one bite she push it away, I tried it (and I can eat almost anything) it was awful beyond words, the cost of the meals (high prices) and the poor atmosphere, make this a MUST NOT DINE location,

This was without question the worst meal I have ever had. The bread was a couple of days old and had been microwaved to give it freshness, but within secs it was rock solid again. The King prawns that were no more than shrimps and were that awful grey with a watery garlic oil that I actually had to spit out, and I have never had whitebait of such poor quality. Saying that the service was good and the wine drinkable! I feel like I choose badly, and am sure there are some nice things on the menu, but we just lucked out. It was so bad that we didn't even bother complaining as my daughter and I were just laughing so much. Good luck

I had ordered kebab skewers and it was sensational. The meat was made from baby lamb which was so fresh, soft and without adding any additional ingredients to it. I was so impressed I recommend this place to anyone who fancy’s any other dishes as well

In spite of having booked and called in earlier to re-confirm the booking, they were not ready for us and we had to wait around while there was a lot of shuffling chairs and tables around to accommodate the 8 of us! The food was average, even disappointing to several of our guests, not vegetarian friendly as advertised. Several customers exiting the place left the door wide open, leaving diners to get up and close it, while management/staff just stood around chatting, completely uninterested. We felt that charging for bread was very petty when most restaurants include it with their starters of hummous,tzaziki etc, We felt that we were somewhat overcharged but couldn't prove it as we were not given a proper itemised bill, a little till slip of the final amount doesn't really count! Wouldn't recommend the place unless everywhere else in the area was full up.

Eight of us one a veggie went here for dinner, There were a delicious selection of starters, including a lot of Veggie options, huge delicious steaks and the Persian dishes were full of flavour (but not Chilli hot at all, as is the Persian way). Very reasonable alcohol prices, also very attentive, excellent service. All located in a lively part of West Hampstead. Highly recommended.
