Ali SaberJune 16, 2015A cozy, clean, high class & expensive Indian restaurant where has some choices in its menu (Like: Fried Rice & Scalloped Shrimp) which are proper for those who can't eat very peppery & spicy foods.

Nazanin DstvrhSeptember 22, 2018It’s not localized ! And that’s what I love about here, hit, fresh, tasty ! It’s not expensive cuz each meal is good for 2-3 ppls !! Best beryani and dall soup and sambose, try yoghurt drink as well.

Yasaman MahdianSeptember 17, 2018I expected a little more from this place. Food or service were both quite mediocre. Nothing to be remembered or make me come back. But still it was not a total waste.

Lili DnJuly 16, 2021It was my first time in an Indian restaurant and I enjoyed everything there.Sure it's not so fancy but staff were polite and responsive at our requests.Food was delicious albeit a bit hot for my tasteUpvote1Downvote
Noosh SBSeptember 12, 2013Wow the main was HUGE !! Stuffed by now, we had two carries and a plain rice and it was too much for two and could easily full three! Tate was fine yet menu lacks some exotic Indian dishes.Upvote11Downvote- Amir UncoversSeptember 8, 2015Dim lighting at arrival, gives a relaxing delusion, but after the first bit, eyes shine: rush of spices in blood; Exotic tastes of Indian recipe, delicious if there is enough resistance for hot food.

BahamirJuly 23, 2016All Indian restaurants in Tehran have the same menu except the Cingari. the food are great and authenticate but the service is poorUpvote2Downvote
First of all, consider that the amount of food is a lot! Atmosphere is kinda cozy and luxurious, Butter Chicken is awesome powsome. Vegetable bread was not my type. Try their Beryani as well.UpvoteDownvote
Ehsan SeratinFebruary 7, 2017Great atmosphere and delicious dishes. I am not experienced with Indian food but I mostly liked the chicken vegetable soup (most spicy soup on the menu) and the foods with rice are enough for two.UpvoteDownvote
Anna HeetaOctober 31, 2015An absolute best choice for indian food in Tehran, peaceful, a little too dark but fine, try that makani chicken 👌🏻 since none of the other Indian restaurants has this delicious food in Tehran ..UpvoteDownvote

MohammadReza KavousiApril 3, 2017Very very delicious indian food with good sits and service. The price is high. And also don't forget that order one food for 2 people.

Karmin EbrahimiOctober 11, 2017It’s a good Indian restaurant with beautiful Indian songs playing and very tasty foods. All foods are good especially Sambooseh and Gazny.

Hormoz GilyanehAugust 12, 2015Best Indian restaurant in Tehran. Head and shoulders above the rest! Try the Palaak Paneer. I'm addicted to it. Also like the Gazni Raan.UpvoteDownvote
Amin ShafiepourFebruary 24, 2019Butter chicken is highly recommended!. Not as fancy as Taj mahal but the prices are almost the same. Worth to try if you like Indian foods. They don’t serve food after 11 PM.

Kaveh MSeptember 13, 2013The dishes are very delicious, but it's not that much spicy as indians do. Although I didn't find any indian restaurant in tehran that serves dishes as spicy as indians cook. But this one's a good oneUpvote3Downvote- Hani AbolfazliFebruary 1, 2017Palak panir is great! A complete 3 course meal will cost you 25-30$ for each person! I say to that expensive! Main course and a drink would cost you 15-20$.UpvoteDownvote
- BaranFebruary 18, 2018I had kori gassi and cumin rice, it was quite good. There were no other customers and we had no problems with the service. Kori gassi calls for curry leaves and I couldn’t taste it but still ok.

Peter ZeitlerJune 26, 2015Bring your night vision goggles, it's sooo dark that you can not read the menu or see the food.. Waiters are a bit too enthusiastic. Food was good if you don't mind not seeing what you eat.Upvote2Downvote- Voria N.NMarch 20, 2018Such a great Indian restaurant, nice decoration, polite staff and romantic atmosphere, highly recommended especially for couplesUpvoteDownvote
Julia MankoOctober 25, 2015I don't seem to like it anymore! Tomato soup was horrible, had anything else except tomatoes. Panir dish was not freshly made, I got sore tummy. Only the portions remained huge.Upvote5Downvote
shjNovember 19, 2016Exciting options on the menu and generous portions, but mediocre services.Upvote3Downvote
One of the real authentic Indian food in Tehran, including Vegetarian options.UpvoteDownvote
Farbod NaghashJune 6, 2018Anything i tried here was kinda bad. For an Indian restaurant all the foods and sauces were bland and tasted like an Iranian dish that you can have in southern parts of the country. Not recommended.Upvote1Downvote

Karan JamiJuly 6, 2015Tasty Indian food served but the restaurant is too dark in the evenings. Some tables are so dark that you even can't see the colour of your orders.Upvote2Downvote- Nora TaghaviApril 24, 2016Their indian food isn't changed to Iranian the taste and keep its original recipe that made it differentUpvoteDownvote

Hanieh SaNovember 11, 2016Most delicious indian foods you can ever try in Tehran. I have tried various foods & all are amazing. A bit expensive but portions are good for two.

Zahhaak MJanuary 10, 2016Acceptable indian food. Inexperienced cheap workers as waiters. Poor dessert options. Golab jamoon is bad (probably frozen). No indian culture. No Papadam and they bring normal bread instead.UpvoteDownvote
