Persian Room 248 - Melbourne

I would give this restaurant a four-star rating based on the service and food. I particularly enjoyed the kabab with saffron and steamed rice combination. However, I found the minced lamb with raisins in the rice to be a three-star dish as I am not a fan of raisins. The starters were delicious, with eggplant and pita bread being standout items. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the names of the dishes and the restaurant's menu is not available on Zomato. Overall, a must-try for anyone looking for a tasty meal.

I finally had dinner at this restaurant after wanting to try it for a long time. I was looking forward to trying the cookoo sabzi, but it was not available. Instead, I ordered the mirza ghasemi (roast eggplant and tomatoes) and the kashke bademjan (eggplant, whey and mashed walnut). Both dishes were rich and delicious, and were served with a large amount of bread. However, the mirza ghasemi was supposed to come with rice if ordered in a main size, and I was not informed that the entree size did not come with it, which was disappointing. I also ordered a side of spinach and yogurt dip, but asked to swap it for a salad. Unfortunately, the waiter forgot and brought the dip instead. It was good but lacked spice and was very heavy. I considered asking for the salad instead, but felt too awkward to say anything. I am interested in returning to this restaurant, but will order differently next time to avoid ending up with a meal that is mostly just bread and dips.

We had a delicious lunch at this restaurant over the weekend. They are a part of EatClub, so getting 30% off our bill was a great bonus! I have ordered delivery from here before, but dining in was a much better experience. The Persian soup we tried had incredible flavor and texture. It was both aromatic and delicious. The Zereshk Chicken was absolutely outstanding. I have never tasted chicken that good before! The barberries in the rice added a tanginess that paired perfectly with the tender chicken. My child ordered the chicken skewers with rice, which was also of great quality. The eggplant dip served with bread was a perfect accompaniment. I deducted a point for the lack of wine options - on a relaxed Sunday with such amazing food, a BYO option would have been ideal. However, once they get their liquor licensing sorted, I can't wait to come back!

Spending a over nighter on chapel with some gals for training was bound to be an adventure.<br/ <br/ Wanted to try something different so persian food was suggested.<br/ Food was really good but service could really improve by ALOT. The staff arent friendly particularly one waitress, she was rude, not friendly and even taking our order was like it was a big effort. If it wasn't for the fact the other gals wanted to try it, i would have walked out.<br/ I'm giving it 4 cause the food was really good but because the attitude of that waitress it didn't deserve 5.<br/ Service is the number key to customers and obvious they don't know that. Really want to go eat there again but the thought of the service puts me off.<br/

I've been to this restaurant so many times. The foods are nice and tasty, generous portions and well priced. Their kabab are moist, well marinated and cooked well. Love the baghali polo as the meat really come out the bones perfectly.
