*EDIT: Review changed to 5 /5 upon re-reading the website and realizing it was clearer than originally thought. Also, management is replying to nearly all reviews left on Google, that that - on its own - is commendable. *
Very nice set-up and atmosphere. Excellent food and great selection of treats/desserts. The staff was very accommodating of all our questions (being it was my entire party's first time in).
The patio space looked lovely for a warm, not too breezy day.
I do think that the indoor seating is a touch cramped. I realize square footage is a delicacy nowadays in smaller restaurants, and I wasn't quite touching the person next to me (also from my party), but I did feel as though the rectangular plates made it so that my table space felt a little smaller than I'd prefer.
Additionally, the website seemed a touch confusing to us as to what times certain meals were available, and what the "Kitchen" aspect was and how it was related to the "Teahouse". But the manager took time to explain it all, and it makes perfect sense to us now.
* Honestly, I'd give this a 4.5 / 5 if I could, but for the sake of my (very mild, I think) criticisms, a 4 / 5 will have to suffice.
I went to this cafe for brunch with a friend. First, I love the interiors. The vibe is so Persian. When it comes to food, we ordered an omelette from brunch, beef wrap l, lentils soup, ice tea, Persian tea and safron rice pudding.
Overall the quality of food was great. It was fresh, yummy. Rice pudding was alright. I had high hopes from it.
But overall the experience was really good.
This place is well accessible via public transport and just next to 22st west.
Had the Iranian spinach and sausage omelet for brunch, with the never-ending Persian tea and an extra sausage because it tasted so good! The amazing sausage is locally made at the Pig and Pantry.
Excellent food, wonderful service and the desserts are far too tempting to resist. In the words of the immortal Mae West, I can resist anything, except temptation! My excuse for dessert was that I was not finished my tea.
