There has been a change of proprietors. We have been very disappointed with the grilled fish which did not have a good fresh taste. Nothing comparable we have had with the the grilled fish one year ago with the previous owners.

I ordered food from Uber Eats, so part of the reason for this review is Ubers fault. However, the way it was dealt with by the restaurant is the reason why I can not give more than 1 star. Having ordered from Uber, the Uber app decided to send the food to an address a long way from my home, this was an error by Uber. However, I immediately called them to notify the restaurant that this food would not be received at the address and I was told that they could not change it. I was then charged £50 by uber saying that the restaurant had proceeded to make the food, despite knowing that I was going to cancel the order, just seconds after receiving it. Therefore, if they made the food, which I highly doubt, they would have been stupid to do so. They clearly did not make the food, but took advantage anyway and billed the full amount. When I spoke to the restaurant the manager claimed that he could not understand me or my wife and that we should find someone who spoke English better in order for them to hear my complaint. This was clearly a stalling tactic in order for them to process the order from Uber. For clarity, we are both English! It was incredibly rude and I feel that we have been robbed by this restaurant. I will await compensation and suggest that I am refunded, or the order can be processed at no cost in the future.

The quality of the food was terrible and far too expensive anyway. The Koubideh kebab tasted very strange and half the usual size . The Barg kebab was simply too tough. Suitable for wolves.

Purchased a meal that was stated at £24. I received some white rice and a tomato. There was a slice of kebab meat and a piece of bread. It was the type of thing you get after a night out for £5. As a £24 meal was ludicrous. I wont be back and I hope I can stop others making the same unfortunate mistake.

We left the exhibition centre tired and hungry. Suddenly there was a small restaurant with an open front and cafe tables. It has been a warm day. The service was a bit slow as the boss said staff had shown up. He was running from table to table and the making the breads in the fire. The Iranian food was great. Starters we had never had before and a substantial main dish. The waiter was friendly and encouraged us to try Iranian tea and gave us a number of little cakes and sweets after we had already paid! Little gesture like this make you feel welcome and want to write a review. Cost was very reasonable and good value. Thank you. Jonathan

Dirty tables, knife and fork looked like a shovel cheap and nasty. Staff rushed and didn’t have time to take orders properly. Food was barley warm. Dry rice . A novice making bread at the oven and dropping oven lead on the floor with massive banging noise. It is not a resturant is a soup kitchen for the homeless.

We were staying at a nearby hotel and thought we would try some foods we had never experienced before. We could not have been happier with our meal at Apadana, with the food so fresh, well presented and tasty. This place will definitely be getting a return visit from us to try some of the other dishes on offer.

I saw this restaurant from a bus and was immediately attracted by its colourful ambience. The owner was welcoming and found me a nice table by a French window, just right on a hot evening. The food and drink however was a bit of a disappointment. The interesting fruit juices were not available so I ended up with Vimto. I ordered lamb shank with tomato sauce and vegetable rice. The lamb shank was good but the tomato sauce had less flavour than I was expecting. There was a enormous amount of rice, far too much to get through. The food was more expensive than I would usually pay and I didn't feel it was worth the price. The restaurant was blessedly quiet without any canned music and the staff were very nice.

We hadn't been here for a while, but were delighted to find that it was still up to standard. All reasonable hygiene precautions seem to have been taken. The staff will advise you concerning unfamiliar dishes and there's plenty of them! Fesenjan and koobideh went down very well and Persian tea was a fine way to end (we had no room for dessert!) It's also very handy for the railway station...

Do not eat there ! The food is nice but the service is awful. The waitress does not wear a mask during Covid-19, does not right down the orders therefore she forgot one of the item ordered and did not even notice. Then the dessert menu was not proposed to us. In addition she did not bring the bill to us and left us unattended. After quite some time, we decided to leave and go towards the cash register. The waitress had already printed the bill and added a tip for an inexistent customer service performance of us. She give us the bill while being on the phone. Let me add that it did not seem like she was on the phone with a customer. Thankfully we had the tip removed by someone who seems to be the owner but he did not even bother to ask why. He was very nonchalant. Eating there left a bitter taste in our mouths.

Recommended by an Iranian friend and visited whilst staying at a nearby Hotel and loved it. We started with the Ghasem (an aubergine dish - a bit like a dip which we had with their freshly baked flat bread. They bake this in a charcoal pit which is seperate to the main kitchen - in the main restaurant itself. For our main dish we had Chenjeh (our meal is pictured) a delicious marinated lamb fillet dish with rice and salad. Everything tasted very fresh and beautifully seasoned. It all came together but that made it even more fun! We finished with a pot of Iranian Tea - kept hot on a candle base! Lots of locals and very polite and friendly service.

¡Puedes evaluar un restaurante persa por la calidad de su Kabab! . . . En este restaurante, tuve un Kabab especial "Kabab makhsus" que es un kabab picado "Koobide" y un "Barg". Ambos estaban deliciosos, deliciosos y cocinados a la perfección. Se servían con arroz y ensalada de azafrán. Estaba cansado después de una larga caminata, pero no pude resistirme y comí la comida por completo. Teníamos "mirza ghasemi" para los entrantes y también estaba delicioso. La ubicación era buena. El restaurante estaba limpio y acogedor. Las camareras eran muy acogedoras y la comida se servía muy rápido. En general, puedo recomendar fácilmente este restaurante.

La comida era de baja calidad con mal servicio. Las instalaciones son inadecuadas e inaccesibles. La última vez que estuve en Londres fue en una tienda de kabab para llevar con calidad aceptable. Puedo ver que han agregado algunas mesas y sillas desde entonces, han aumentado sus precios y disminuido su calidad. Probamos el Kabab koobideh. Parecía poco atractivo y estaba saturado de grasa. Habían agregado algún tipo de producto químico para hacer que la carne estuviera tierna. Sabía horrible y aunque no lo comimos todo pero nos enfermamos.

We visited Apadana last week. The meal was ok, but was rather bland. Service was reasonable and the cost not exorbitant but all in all pretty average. I would not re visit.

if you want to experience delicious persian food and excellent hospitality then visit Apadana. We have been regular customers for over 30 years and have celebrated Birthdays and Anniversarys there much to our satisfaction. Mr Hayder Al - Lami and his team are always very welcoming and friendly. They deliver a great service both for eating in the reastaurant or for take away. We love the place!!

This is an unusual find - just in town on business and eating alone - came across this small restaurant with a tandoori oven in the front of the eating area - chef on duty turning out Persian flat bread to order.Friendly service - I ordered grilled aubergne starter which was delicately spiced and went well with the freshly made bread. Seabass was spiced aand cooked perfectly - I had salad instead of the rice and they provided a very pleasant pomegranate dressing.

I went with my girlfriend for the first time to Apadana. From the pictures the restaurant looked good as well as the food. Unfortunately it was not like that.The waiters they were very unkind, they didn' t explain the menu, they had very unhappy faces as well as they always talked between then in their own language.The food in the average but I can say that I had better quality in other places for a better price.The restaurant in itself is not nice as it seems from the pictures. It is also very small and they squeezed to many seats in such narrow space: every time someone walked behind me, he hit my chair...so annoying Big surprise at the end: 12 pounds for 2 bottle of waters! Ia a theft!

I see the last review for this restaurant is by myself from nearly a year ago. Again, this year, on our way back to the US from summer holidays, we swung by this place for its mouth watering Persian food. The only reason I gave 4 stars was because of some initial confusion regarding seating assignment. The food was great again. We were surprised by a DJ and belly dancing performance. Of note the performer did a good job of keeping it PG 13. Overall we had an enjoyable night.

The food didn't taste Persian. The rice wasn't cooked. The chicken tasted like plastic and the meat was burnt! The service was poor. The waiter picked up a spoon from the floor and returned it without wash for serving! The music was awful :(((( I am not even sure the cook was Persian. it was very pricey and please avoid it at all costs. There are other Persian Restaurants in London that you can taste authentic tastes of Persia!

That is what the restaurant should be called as that's all they seem to have on the menu! But I'm not complaining as there was a delicious selection and I chose one with cheese, which seems like a good combination of Eastern & Western cuisine!

First of all, do not go there if you like a glass of wine with your meal… it s all alcohol free wine, beer and Spirits… what is the point of having a wine menu if it is alcohol free? You should make it clear before we book… I had just finished a 12 hours shift and could have done with wine, my partner too and our friends visiting from Belgium wanted to taste a cider…I have been living in London for 16 years and have never seen that and would not have stayed if we weren’t at peak time and starving, this was our second disappointment. Our first, I had booked a table for 07:30 pm, they had my name down on a piece of paper and the table wasn’t ready, they had to shift people around. We didn’t have to wait too long cause it was not full but still, when people book a table get it ready. Our third disappointment is the service, it was SO BAD… I was tasting this restaurant to take a group of 40 of my clients and we won’t. First, they waited over 30 minutes before taking our order… it really wasn’t that busy…I was so hungry that I would have eaten one of my friends :), a table of Pakistani arrived 10 minutes after us and their order was taken 15 minutes before we did even though we had called the waiters 3 times to take our order and were dismissed and ignored. The waiters themselves were either ignoring us or yelling and dismissing other customers. Telling you, really, really bad service. When one of them finally came to take our order, he was clearly not happy to come to us for some reason and was arguing with his colleague a minute earlier. My partner tried to order a drink and food and the waiter said : No no you order your drink first. We did then my partner started with the dish and tried to add rice and naan. The waiter said ‘ no no, first the dish for everyone, then the rice, then the naan … I mean… if a waiter cannot organise its order, not sure they should be waiting… The food, I was starving and finished my dish, it was basic. I have many Indian and Pakistani friends, I love Indian/Pakistani food and it went down as ok, just as much as a dish you would have bought at Tesco. So overall, no I will not go back. Really bad experience and I will not bring my customers there. I love food, I usually leave great reviews or do not write reviews if I had not enjoyed it but really,I think it is important to warn people, I do not recommend this place. I do not know why they don’t serve alcohol at a restaurant, not sure if it is cultural but I do not like to be imposed one’s culture in London if it is the reason why. My Muslim friends found this quite weird too… in the heart of Kensington on the top of that!
