Apadana in Kirklees

Food -amazing, ambiance-amazing, service -amazing, Staff-superb! Naz looked after us so welcoming and friendly. We have just had the most beautiful food and whole experience was brilliant! Thankyou all for such a lovely night and celebration of my father in law’s birthday 🎂 xxxx. Also the GF, and vegetarian options are huge! ❤️❤️

What can i say! Went here on 16th august 2024 for my 58th birthday and what a fabulous experience. A little gem of a place with the most attentive and extremely kind staff. Naz has moulded a fine team of individuals who are the most pleasant restaurant staff i have experienced in the uk. The food is persian so a little like turkish with a twist. Stunning tasty food. I had seer sausage to start and lamb chops for main. My wife had a chicken dish and we were very impressed with the quality on offer. We have been again yesterday 29th aug 2024 for the early bird special where i had vine leaves to start and then the koobeh lamb kebab. Wife had cheese rolls to start and a fantastic chicken stew. We highly recommend this restaurant and will be back asap. Enjoy......we certainly did

food was excellent.very tasty with friendly atmosphere.nazi was brilliant and very polite. we will definitely return.Thank you.

Best lamb chops I've ever had. If you like lamb you'll love it, there's also plenty of other things on the menu. Friendly service, good food, nice drinks. Family friendly too.

I was in apadana restaurant with my family they food was so delicious they staff was so kind and friendly I would recommend to everyone 🙏

We have been coming to this restaurant for years and have recommended it to our friends. It's a small independent family run restaurant and we always try to support local businesses. The welcome you receive , the ambiance and vibe are outstanding. The food is always outstanding, we''re trying to work our way through the entire menu !

Apadana is run by the friendliest staff, serving the tastiest food and beautiful drinks. We’ve been going here for years and keep returning because you know you’re going to have the perfect meal. As a family we’ve worked our way through the entire menu and can recommend it all! Naz is always so welcoming to everyone who enters the restaurant, she has her team trained well so they are also friendly and efficient. I’d recommend for you to be adventurous and try something on the menu you haven’t had before as everything is worth trying! I go with family, friends and work colleagues - every time has been superb! You won’t regret going and will be back for more🙌

The food at Apdana is soooo nice, never had a bad meal here, it’s truly my most favourite place to eat out. They do take out too and it really doesn’t lose its quality as a take out

What a wonderful gem in Huddersfield! Came here tonight for my 20th birthday meal and could not have been blown away more by the amazing reception of staff, a smiling hostess, splendid food, all accompanied cosy atmosphere. Genuinely, one of the best restaurant experiences you can get in this town! If you hadn’t already, try this place for yourself. It’s a 10/10 for me ;)

Another excellent and special evening at Huddersfield's Apadana! Nothing too much trouble, SUPERB food and service, and very friendly owners. It continues to be a family favourite. Returning soon. Highly recommended!

We visit often and we always have excellent food, prices are not silly, the food is homemade, traditional, fresh and tasty, the staff are very friendly and welcoming, great place to get good quality food in Huddersfield, which is becoming more difficult all the time. Everything on the menu is delicious, never had a bad meal here.

This place is amazing, fresh, very tasty food. The service is 10/10. Best olives I've ever tasted - that marinade is delicious! Would highly recommend this place if you are in Huddersfield.

We absolutely love Apadana and regularly go as a couple. We went as a family of 9 for a birthday meal and as always it was faultless. The service was brilliant as always, the food fabulous and everyone had a brilliant time. Our son had the swordfish which he said was the best hes had whilst the rest of the family had meat dishes of varying kinds. Naz really looked after us and my Father in law is keen to return for his 80th. Huge thanks to the Apadana staff for looking after us so well.

My husband, son and I ate here and it was delicious! The food is very fresh, full of flavour and we enjoyed every mouthful. All topped off by excellent friendly service. We will definitely be coming back, what a great restaurant 😀

Great food, a little different from the usual places to eat. Tasty and different, decent size portions and reasonable prices. Good service, nice surroundings. So many different dishes to choose from. Had been to the restaurant quite a few years ago, and it was as good now as it was then

I highly recommend this delightful Persian restaurant. The food is beautifully fresh, full of flavour and cooked to perfection. We shared a platter, which was all lovely, especially the lamb chops. The baklava desert was insanely good! The restaurant is clean, warm and well maintained and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. All of the food that came out of the kitchen looked excellent. I’ll definitely be returning to try more of the menu.

This is a very good restaurant with great food in the area. Staff are very kind and helpful and look after you. It has a relatively good size area which can be re organised to suit your party size. Various choices to select from and staff will help you to find what you may like best.

Excellent food and service Cannot do enough for you Never had Persian food before Nice and clean restaurant everything was good

I’ve seen families here, couples, friends, and everyone looks comfortable and happy. The seer sausage is INCREDIBLE, the lamb sauté is amazing, masto moosir a lovely lovely dip. I’ve ordered the falafel before and it was up there with the best I’ve ever had. The host is flawless. So thoughtful and helpful, she remembered my husband’s allergy after meeting us once before.

We visited early on a Saturday night and it was reasonably busy, but service was prompt and efficient from the very welcoming staff. The restaurant looks very nice and has a casual and friendly atmosphere, but it was the food that made it amazing. We had complimentary olives to start and they were completely delicious (we had to ask what the marinade was). The seeded flatbread we had was, I think, the nicest I've ever tasted with a lovely toasted flavour. I had the Seer Sausage to start followed by the chicken and lamb Ghafghazi and both were gorgeous. My wife decided to have multiple starters instead of a main course and loved everything. Neither of us have eaten Persian food before but we will be visiting Apadana again and again.

Don't be put off by the scaffolding outside, they are still there! Generous portions and the set-menu is excellent value. We always enjoy a warm welcome here and it is worth the 20-mile trip! My Dad and I enjoyed a grill and a stew, washed down with traditional "dough" (a traditional drink made with yoghurt and mint etc.) Leave room for dessert if you can!

First time visiting this restaurant. The ambiance was extremely welcoming and the staff were so friendly. The presentation of the food was perfect and the taste was amazing . Would definitely recommend and will definitely visit again !!

Lovely restaurant, superb food, good prices and excellent staff. Had minced lamb with rice and lamb and aubergine stew, all good. , ,

First time eating here and definitely won't be the last, superb. Great atmosphere and welcoming staff, food marvellous and well priced, don't be put off by the location, inside is spot on, great place to eat!

Amazing variety of authentic Persian dishes! My family ordered the ghorme sabzi stew, the chicken, and beef koobideh’s, along with doogh and baklava - the food was all tasteful and service was amazing for our party! I highly recommend going to Apadana for lunch, dinner, and any type of occasions as the atmosphere and service is incredible👌🏼

Really, really good food and service. Something different or more conventional choices. Brilliant. Definitely go again.

I went to apadana restaurant for my birthday it was very good experience they staff was very good and kind ,food was very delicious and with amazing quality I highly recommend this place 😍😍

The staff were lovely and helpful and the food was plentiful and tasted amazing, Noz the owner was so nice and we had a good chat !

Returning visit while staying with friends. The staff here are really friendly they are very attentive with allergies and are so helpful explaining certain dishes when ordering. My husband and I had the sharing platter for 2 which had fabulous flavour and such tender meats.

Went with another couple and all our food was absolutely superb. The staff were friendly and attentive. I’m coeliac (gluten free) and the vast majority of the menu is gluten free so I was spoilt for choice. I had the Ghormeh Sabzi which, despite its dark green appearance, was absolutely delicious. The lamb just fell apart on my plate.

Really love this place. The food is great and the service matches. It’s not the cheapest, but you gets what you pay for. If you want a really good meal with different and authentic flavours, try here.

Our first visit, but we will certainly be back. Never tried Persian food before, but it was absolutely delicious. It was quiet, but we went more or less as soon as they opened (we're not late evening eaters). Staff were very attentive, and we really liked how they described the food to us. Although we were full I was still keen to try a dessert. Taking one home wasn't a problem, and the ones we chose came with a choice of cream or Persian ice cream, which was lovely. Can't recommend this place enough!

Apadana is a family run Persian restaurant that we have been meaning to try for ages and i am glad we finally got round to it as the food and cocktails were delicious. We were welcomed with an appetiser of olives that had been marinated...

Came here for valentine’s night meal (again). Everything was delicious. Still the best hummus in town! The meat was beautifully marinated and absolutely delicious. Loved the Torshi (picked veg) too. Next visit can’t come soon enough!

Deliveroo takeaway- absolutely brilliant. The food was so tastefully, portions oversize, can’t wait to experience the restaurant.

Thank you for the usual warm welcome and consideration for our comfort. The food was, as always, excellent- our cleared plates proved this point. Amazing service, friendly and funny 😁

Second birthday in lockdown, we love this restaurant when open so treaded ourself to a takeaway, the team were lovely as usual and fantastic food, can’t wait to get back and visit. Thanks I had a lovely birthday x

This is one of our favourite restaurants and is somewhere we have visited many times. We’ve really missed being able to eat here, but we’ve just enjoyed a take away meal which was every bit as good as if we’d been eating in the restaurant....

Had a lovely valentine meal delivery as this is one of our favourite restaurants to go to (can’t wait for that!). The meat was tender and well marinated. Loved the pickled veg and the hummus is the best hummus anywhere. The only not so good thing was that the salad had a lot of very vinegary dressing on it. Perhaps at the moment for delivery purposes it would be better to serve the dressing in a separate pot like the sauce that comes with the lamb.

Whilst currently closed for dining in, the restaurant has continued to turn out top class food for collection and delivery. The chicken kebab and aubergine stew were really tasty, adn we look forward to getting bac there in person

Never disappoints! Delicious Persian grill for 4 with Toftoon bread and saffron rice. Arrived hot and on time and was as good as eating at the restaurant. Just missing the wonderful service and smiley staff

Always good service even when they are only able to do takeaway at the moment. Food just as good as ever.

Six of us for meal out at this lovely restaurant where the food is so well prepared and tasty .The menu offers a wide range of dishes all served in a timely manner by lovely friendly and polite staff .We loved it and will be back .
