Shekamu — Restaurant in Nuremberg

This is my second review for this place. The visit has taken place on July 2025.

Kashke Bademjan as the starter tasted awesome, BUT was a little cold inside although its dish/container was extremely hot. So I assume it needed a longer time for getting warmed up?

Ghormesabzi was tasty for my hubby, but not me. But that is totally fine, cause it is just the matter of tastes…

Zeytoon Parvardeh was literally FANTASTIC with a sweet sour taste!

Kabab Koobide was good, but not the best. The last time I visited this place, koobideh was a lot better. This time, I found it a bit uncooked, and also a bit dry texture but it was overall good and I will order it again and again:)) There was no Somagh at our table and I personally picked it up from the table next to us.

The rice and tahdig, I believe are the STAR of this restaurant, a must-try, a perfection✨!

The staff are always kind and caring but they seem always a bit stressed. They talk to each other a bit loud and stressful. It is a bit annoying for people who sit inside and understand their language.

I recommend this place and will visit...

I was so looking forward to having food at this Persian restaurant but to my surprise, it turned out to be a disappointment. I tried it on several different occasions and was disappointed every time. The staff is really doing their best but they really should get more help. They’re mostly exhausted and stressed from running the restaurant and serving guests. It feels like they’re new to the business and still trying to get the hang of it.

The quality of the food is poor. The presentation is good. But I can tell good quality rice from a bad one. Or when they’re adding barbecued chicken last minute to the stew so they’d have a vegan option available to other customers (the non-vegan stews should be prepared together with the meat to have the authentic taste). Or when there’s no beans in Ghorme Sabzi (the proportions aren’t right)… or when the Zereshk isn’t done right… I have so many examples.

But the ones with lack of taste in food and service would totally love it. They just don’t know any better.

To the owners: Please don’t get discouraged. You have room for improvement....

The food at the restaurant is excellent and incredibly delicious and high-quality, maintaining the original taste of Persian cuisine. The restaurant staff are very kind, polite, and friendly. The restaurant is very clean, and the prices are quite reasonable, truly worth visiting a hundred times. The saffron ice cream served as a dessert in this restaurant tastes like heaven. Although my family and I live in another city, we have decided to visit Nuremberg at least once a month to dine at this restaurant. My niece, who has had Iranian kebab koobideh many times in Los Angeles, rated the koobideh at this restaurant higher and said its taste is unparalleled. Additionally, the supermarket next to the restaurant offers the best and highest quality Iranian food products at the...
