Bamanoosh Persian Kitchen — Restaurant in London

Never again. Food okay ish. But over priced and nothing special, there are other similar restaurants locally with much higher standards and better food, more reasonly priced.

Not a deal breaker but they don't have a license, so you either have to bring your own wine or go with a soft drink and the options there are very limited.

Wasn't particularly made to feel welcome by the girl , she spent more time with her face in her phone sitting at the till than to clear tables and generally attend to people. The man is quite flighty, he's friendly but not really got a hold on things, goes back and forth from the tables to the kitchen serving up piece meal when things are missing.

Toward the end of the meal we needed the toilet, I was led though the kitchen to the back, uck! Toilet filthy, as I came back a observed trays of uncooked chicken, lamb and mince all together. Food round the back of the counter on the floor, vats of cold rice being scooped out and reheated and this is what we've just eaten. I couldn't finish the meal after returning to the table having seen this.

Later in the evening both I and my wife had stomach aches , this restaurant definitely doesn't have the five stars it displays on the door, just the rest facilities alone would knock off points.

Since found out the council EHO website shows a different value to their notices , maybe it used to be better or maybe it belongs to another restaurant.

If you do go in, visit the toilet before ordering and see for your self before wasting time and maybe eating something you'd...

Dinner for 9. Closy place and service in general was very good and welcoming. Was placed by the A/C which we requested to have turned off eventually as it felt very cold. Table was very close to another group but didn't affect our meal or comfort. Pricy and small portion sizes but must say the quality of the food was great and something a little different to the typical persian food I eat; had a lot more flavour than a lot of similar places I've tried. Unlimited salad available in a buffet style; lettuce, cabbage and another time. We didn't eat from it as we ordered some starters. Food took a while to arrive and a significant waiting time for the mains after the starters. Cold meze platter costs around £20+ which comes with 3 small pots of meze which was a little dissapointing but made up for it with the taste. Ordered the family platter for 4 and the lamb shank with rice. Platter came with 4 different types of rice and you have the option to choose which type youd like. Fortunately we didnt have a huge apeitite otherwise we would have had to order another platter which I dont think would have been worth due to price and amount of food. Lamb steak/cutlets were a little dry and chewy. Some of the chicken wings where slightly undercooked with obvious pink/redness visible. Informed staff at the end of the meal as the rest of the food was fine. Apology offered with the reason being that it was on the bone so can sometimes result in being undercooked. But nothing else offered. Overall nice place but probably wouldn't go out of my way to...
