Centre Culturel Pouya — Restaurant in Paris

My husband and I visited Poya Restaurant on Sunday, hoping to warm ourselves up with a comforting bowl of ash reshteh and a glass of wine. The food itself was fine and gave us a small connection back to our Persian roots, which we appreciated.

Unfortunately, the customer service was disappointing. We also noticed something very strange on the bill — we were charged twice for one bowl of ash reshteh and one glass of wine. This left us feeling uneasy, since it seemed careless at best.

Overall, while the food offered a nostalgic touch, the poor service and billing issue took away from the experience. I truly hope the restaurant addresses these problems, because Persian cuisine deserves to be enjoyed with hospitality that matches...

Worst place ever. If you want a good service and a welcoming manager please don't go there ! Tea are expensive. We waited exactly 40 min to be served ( for a Tea). Manager was disgusting with me and my friends. He literally Yelled at us. According to him we are not welcome in his place because it's " a place for the artist. ".FOR NO REASONS. we totally don't understand why he reacted like this. I specify that my friends and I had a correct attitude we didnt disturb the place.

Finally we didn't finish our drink because of his rudeness and he made us feel uncomfortable Unfortunately we can't put 0 star for this bad experience. So here's the one star for cultural pouya ! I do not...

The space is cozy, you feel at home. It’s a great place to chill with family or friends and escape the busy Paris. Having a drink there, made you make a stop in time and appreciate the present. I tried the ginger juice and cardamon tea which are tasty. If you are not into sugar skip the cardamon tea or don’t use the nabah, (which is a natural sugar from Iran) overwise it’s good. I was really disappointed by the pastries plate who was poor, 4 little non tasty cakes battlying in a plate... Anyway, it’s still a nice and original place to go. It made you travel to Iran...
