Apadana Persian Restaurant - Huddersfield in Kirklees

The food was delicious, and the service was astonishing

Excellent restaurant that never fails to impress.

A very good restaurant in town. First time I've been here but I'll definitely be going back again. The food was lovely, very well cooked and delicious. Atmosphere wasn't great because there were only a few customers. It deserves more! A good. Vegetarian options and restaurant is easy access for all including wheelchair access.

This Persian restaurant serves amazing food! The flavours are rich and authentic, from the juicy kebabs to the fragrant saffron rice. Every dish is beautifully prepared and full of fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is cosy and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a memorable meal. Highly recommend!

Lovely food and great atmosphere. Thank you !

Delicious, freshly cooked food and very authentic and wonderful service. Will definitely come back and recommend to friends.

Fantastic service and really tasty food & drink!

Once again portion on small side which makes it expensive

First and last time ordering here. Literally couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the tiniest portion of lamb ever, literally one slice and cost over £20 inc delivery. To make it worse was also FREEZING cold and very bland. I live in Bradford (visiting family in Huddersfield today) and regularly get Persian take outs from numerous restaurants there which are always brilliant quality and great portion sizes, this was also far more expensive than my regular restaurants and so poor in comparison.

Tbh portions in the small size, proven to on the expensive side for what we got. Tasted ok and great gluten free selection but underwhelmed with the portions

brilliant service and Great food.veary tasty. Great ambience too.thank you Apadana 👏 👍

Food delicious, staff friendly and efficient

The food was very salty and very expensive. The worst Iranian restaurant I have seen in these seven years of my life in England🤮

Fantastic unusual food and the Lady who runs the restaurant is a diamond.

Dine in | Lunch I had a fantastic experience today at Apadana. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious. I also want to express my gratitude to the staff for their exceptional effort and friendliness, as well as the assistance they provided during dining. The ambiance was beautiful, with impressive design elements both in the food presentation and the building itself.

We came here based on a friend’s recommendation, and it satisfied our needs extremely well and quickly as well. For a starter, my personal preference is a Kashk-e Bademjan, which I’d get every time I go to a Persian restaurant. This Kashk was probably among, if not THE best I’ve ever had, and the bread on the side was fresh. The special for four, which is what we got, consisted of one or two skewers of Koobideh, a skewer of Shashlik with grilled veg, a skewer of Joojeh and a skewer of lamb chops. The Koobideh was beefy, savoury and just the perfect amount of oiliness. The Shashlik was tender and juicy; the Joojeh was also this, but with the addition of saffron and a tang to it, which is what you’d look for in a Joojeh. The lamb chops were also great, as they were grilled to perfection with a great fat to meat ratio. The chips were not like normal chips, and instead were crispy, fresh, just the right amount of greasy and delicious. The rice on the side was, obviously, cooked precisely and there was no need for the butter on the side. Their Doogh was also wonderful, with some crushed ice to chill it and that refreshing minty and salty taste. The atmosphere was also great, with elegant furniture and decor, and a nice selection of relaxing music playing alongside it. Oh, and their absolutely excellent waiting was a big plus too. It took less than 20 minutes for the starters and the main course to arrive! All in all, despite the price which really isn’t bad considering the fact that three people ate to their heart’s content, the restaurant was an absolute charm and as a Persian through and through, I strongly recommend it to you all! Bill: ~£90 (~£30/person (starter for each person, bread, main, sides and drinks))

The quality of JOOJE and KOOBIDEH low. we were not satisfied with the food at all and it was very expensive. The children’s food was of very low quality and not fresh.

I've been twice last week because food fantastic, warm and delicious and I can tell homemade to be honest I think I'm leaving in my house. basically they are spoiling me anytime I go there and I recommend to everyone ❤️❤️❤️❤️💯🍾🍻

I can’t tell you how you will be looking after and what kind of the quality you will see in this fantastic restaurant. Staff are really nice and helpful. The manager call Naz she is fabulous. It’s been few times I went over there and each single time I was absolutely happy. Highly recommended Go and enjoy

Fantastic restaurant, lovely staff and delicious dishes! Highly recommended!

I’ve been coming here for years with my family and everything about Apadana is perfect every time! The food is always so tasty and there’s some really special dishes like the ash reshteh soup that you just don’t see in other similar restaurants (special mention for the great cocktail list too). Naz makes sure you have a great time and the rest of the staff are really friendly too. Can’t recommend this place enough, it’s such a hidden gem. Also don’t leave without having a pudding !!!

Always love dining at Apadana! The food is fantastic and the staff are so welcoming- nothing is too much trouble and they make you feel like family while you're there. We most recently visited as a Father's Day treat and everything was fantastic. There's so much delicious food on the menu too- we always end up getting a few different things so that we can share. Definitely recommend their chef's specials, the Masto-Moosir with taftoon breads, lamb chops, koobideh and bahklava. Also, their Persian tea is beautiful! Looking forward to our next visit.

We went to this lovely little restaurant for a meal this evening, what a little gem this place is!! The staff were very welcoming and friendly, nothing was too much trouble! We started with the Seer sausage for starters, WOW is all I can say, it was so tasty!!! For main I had the Lamb saute, and once again it was beautiful, so tasty and full of flavour! If your in the area, go and pay this place a visit, the food is amazing, you will not be disappointed ❤️

My favourite restaurant in Huddersfield by far. It never disappoints on food, service, value and is my go to place with family and friends. The food is fabulous always and offers a great choice for all diets. Well done Apadana.

Beautiful food, restaurant and service..highly recommended. Persians know how to cook :)

One of the best Persians restaurants,food is so good service is perfect,five star restaurant,thanks for that

Food las lovely restaurant lovely inside and amazing was perfect hostess will be back

My first time here and I was really impressed. Had chicken and lamb mixed kebab and loved it. So tasty and a lovely restaurant with pleasant staff. I can't wait to come back again and try something else 💯

Always fabulous. Definitely recommend.

The food here was absolutely stunning, so full of flavour and as a fussy eater there seemed to be something for everyone. We will definitely be returning!

the food is amazing and both times that i’ve been there, i’ve really enjoyed my time there. the staff are really kind, are always ready to help and will check up.

Came late on a Saturday, nice calm atmosphere, good service and nice food. The lamb shank was very soft, and the rice aromatic and beautifully seasoned. The honeymoon mocktail is delicious, too! Definitely recommend

Outstanding food Exceptional waiters. The whole evening was out of this world. Could not fault a single thing. Most definitely will be back

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 ;)

What a lovely resteraunt! The servers were brilliantly prifessional, the food delightful, and the atmosphere was lush. 11/10

We absolutely loved our visit! Highly, highly recommend 👌

Four of us visited, and ordered the mix grill for 4 people, Lamb Shank, as well as a few other items. The food was ok at best, Also the portion sizes were quite small. We had to ask if the mix grill for 4 was for 4 or if we'd ordered the mix grill for 2. Overall its quite pricey noting the portion sizes aren't that big, and the food did not impress us. We were 4 Pakistanis visiting so we have very high standards. The staff were very nice and friendly.

Food was very disappointing, the waiter didn't seem too friendly, very blunt answers. The kobedah had an awful smell to it and chicken very salty. I wouldn't recommend the place , very basic. Wouldn't recommend or visit again

Superb restaurant! By far the nicest place in centre of Huddersfield. Staff are incredibly polite and accommodating. Lamb falls about and chicken is perfectly spiced. 11/10!

Nice atmostphere accompanied by good food and lovely service. The lamb shank we had was great and a good portion size for the price. Highly recommended and will definitely be coming back again.

Our first visit and we walked in to such a warm and friendly welcome. We chose from the early bird menu and the food was delicious. Seer Sausage, panir rolls for starters and a lamb kebab thingy and the chicken in tortilla wrap for mains. All was just perfect. Tasty, succulent, fresh, the dips were delicious and all served with such warmth. Shared a sneaky Baghlava for desert - probably the nicest I’ve ever had. Wonderful start to a wonderful evening going on to a concert in the Town Hall. Will have to find an excuse to drop in again very soon!! Thankyou for your amazing Persian cuisine.

Just go and be amazed by the wonderful food! Super service and fantastic setting. Definitely going again and again!

Great food and friendly helpful staff, will definitely be going again. Popped over to Huddersfield to see family and went for a quick meal, and came across this Persian restaurant. Very impressed.

9 of us went for Mother’s Day and everyone of us really enjoyed the food. Great service and great value. We will all definitely be returning!

First time trying and won’t be the last! Yes it’s more expensive but the taste was beautiful and well worth it! On time and nice and warm still, amazing flavours

Great experience!!! Delicious food, lovely staff who took care of us every minute and excellent portion size. Kids loved it too. The overall experience was fantastic. If you get early bird offer, that's a bonus. Highly recommended 👌

What a waste of money very small potions garlic naan was very crispy and burned a hair in the chips plate a complete put off

If I could give this restaurant more than five stars, I would. We stumbled upon it on Saturday night while visiting Huddersfield and looking for somewhere to dine. As a vegan, I am usually limited to one or two options but was spoiled for choice at Apadana! I settled on the veg grill which was very abundant and delicious, not to mention healthy (hopefully!) My fellow diner had the lamb and thoroughly enjoyed it. The atmosphere was friendly, the waiters were very polite and chatted away to customers like everyone was an old friend. So pleased to have found Apadana, it will definitely be my first choice for dining should I find myself in Huddersfield again!

Amazing food every time and lovely staff

My friends and I all agreed that the food just tasted off. Especially the chicken, we didn’t even finish it. It was too pricy for the quality of food we received.

10 mins late, even though I ordered 2 hours in advance. Food was lovely, but I have to say it is very expensive for portion size.

Good food and good service will be back

Lovely place for a date night. The booking was impromptu, the service was brilliant and the cocktails were great - very thoughtfully made. Food was delicious and well presented, there was a great choice of traditional dishes and drinks. We will definitely go back.

Great food, great staff, great night

The value for money was just not there. The meat was dry and severely over cooked. You pay £20 for 5 pieces of meat, over salted rice half an onion, two quarters of onion and half of small tomato.

Tasty food full of flavour generous portions too. Recommend. Halal meat.

First visit. Delicious food and a good atmosphere. Will definitely visit again

Excellent food , superb service, and a very pleasant atmosphere , and very nicely priced would I go back most definitely

We love this place, food is lovely as are the staff and particularly the front of house owner who seems to be able to remember everyone who's visited previously, it's a great skill and really makes you feel welcome. The taftoon bread is so tasty too. Highly recommended the special for two.

Our second visit, love the flavours, will definitely visit again

Food were fantastic, only I wished portion was little a bit bigger

Excellent food location. Food was brilliant, not too heavy

Stumbled on this by accident. Fantastic service. Fantastic food!

Absolutely delicious food, it was a pleasure to dine here! The staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is great. I reallt enjoyed the music playing theough the speakers as well :) thanks for having us! Highly recommended for any keen foodie!

Visited midweek with a small group. Cozy dining and very polite staff. (Free parking from 6pm).

Food was delicious, we had the early bird menu which was excellent value for money, the lady who served us (possibly the owner) was so friendly, we really enjoyed it would definitely recommend.

Good service. Good food. Free parking around the corner. What is to complain !

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 lady who runs the place is so helpful and thoughtful (she remembered my husband’s allergy upon our second visit), a truly perfect host. Photo is lamb shank

The waiters greets us with big smiles. Has soft warm lighting, comfy atmosphere. Starters comes with a reasonable sized basket of taftoon bread, perfect for dipping. The food is delicious, as a picky eater from east Asia, I loved everything I tried and look forward to making my way through the menu. Can order delivery when feeling lazy, but definitely should try dine in. The photo is seer sausage&loghmeh chicken, it’s hard to find food this good.

If you love lamb like I do then this is a great restaurant. They've got plenty of other options on the menu though.

First time eating here, lovely place and the food and service was excellent. Will be back!

First time trying Apadana and I have to admit that it was delicious. I tried a variety of options from the menu and they all tasted great. Quality ingredients that made for incredible flavour. However, I can’t give Apandana 5 stars as the portion size was far too small for what I paid. Each meal came to at least £15 thereabouts and I felt like I got £10 maximum worth of food. So on that basis, it was far too expensive.

We have been regularly for over 5 years and have always had amazing food and great service. Every dish we have tried has been a revelation in terms of taste. Try everything if you can!

Beautiful food delivered quickly!!

When I went the restaurant was very quiet and I be honest with you all that's exactly how I like it because I hate waiting I'm an in and out kinda guy. Service was excellent, got served by the most beautiful young lady ever and no my review is not based on her. I had the hummus starter which was excellent and because I had been eating meat day in and day out I opted for the vegetarian option that was recommended to me and all the food was excellent 👍

Absolutely wonderful ❤️ 😊 very much a fantastic evening out.

Gorgeous food, wonderful cocktails that don't come with a ridiculous price tag. Food was delicious... couldn't fault a thing.

Fantastic food, atmosphere and service.

Asked the ? What is Persian Quisine? Imo the simplicity of the food is a plus , this was delivered from the moment we walked in and sat down. Complimentary olives in some sort of mint herb sauce delicious! Starter falafel with a pot of humous & side of salad. This accompanied with bread coated with sesame seed again faultless. Main consisted of lamb skewer chicken skewer with rice side salad yoghurt dip with a cheeky knob of butter melted in the middle of the rice... Seated soon as we arrived b4 our booking time which is always nice . Pleasant dining experience staff extremely attentive and offered advice as regards the food 👍🏾 Will definitely be going again.

Absolutely love this place....food gorgeous, great service.

One of the best meals I've ever had and this was my first time having Persian food

Very good good for a reasonable prices. Relaxing atmosphere.

Absolutely fabulous, can’t fault anything. Will definitely be back

Went here tonight on my birthday the food was spot on top class customer service was 5 star a little gem this place

Food was restaurant quality, packaged and delivered with care. A little on the pricey side but the best local takeaway by far. Highly recommended

What a lovely chilled out place. So relaxing. The service is awesome. And the food is beautiful. We are sure to return to try some other dishes... The mushroom starter and the fillet beef and the cheese cake was perfection....

Best takeaway in hudds. Unreal scran and quick delivery.

Nice place, good food and friendly staff

Had a really good time - tasty food and friendly service. Mixed starters were great for sharing.
