I come here often because it always tastes soooo good. Having been a wannabee chef most of my life, I like to think I can cook and know I have a good palette. Here, the food is full of flavour, albeit several different elements on the plate are subtly spiced, and, as such, the juicy, meat, mixed salad, gorgeous flatbread and dips all work together harmoniously. It's easy for me to big up a local eatery on a review, as we have so many in our area to chose from; for that reason, I rarely do unless I think it's special. Whilst I always sit comfortably outside, under the awning and the lights, looking out, the interior is really as sumptuous as it is clean and open, all with genuine persian/arabian touches throughout. Likewise with the hosts who are always keen to accomodate me in a friendly, professional yet unobtrusive manner. Again, for those of you that have an interest in these things, the crockery and presentation, befits the high standards the hosts set for themselves and their premises. This also includes the rest rooms and waiting areas which afford a very good level of space and privacy. Aquarium has an extensive range of freshly prepared coffees, teas, juices and pastries including many more esoteric flavours from all four lines. It is also well located a few metres away from Acton Town Tube, which is an accesible station for mobility compromised travellers servicing both Piccadilly and District Lines in and out of central London.

I ordered a wrap and was told that I could not have the wrap in the restaurant as I only ordered a wrap. I was told to have the wrap as a takeaway. The restaurant was empty at the time and all the seats were vacant. I guess the chef was annoyed having to make just one wrap for one person. On top of all this, it was raining outside! They do not know customer service at all.

Dropped in for lunch on spec and asked if we could just have something light like a starter. They were happy to comply and brought out a mixed salad for one between two of us. Could see chef behind a glass screen preparing food freshly. Food was lovely, as was the coffee, and reasonably priced. Premises are not fancy but are clean. Tables well spaced and comfortable. All told a pleasant experience and we were made to feel most welcome.

The people that run this restaurant are the nicest, humblest people one would wish to be served by. Excellent food recommendations, nothing was too much for the kitchen, and very good wine recommendations, despite the absence of a wine menu. An evening full of pleasant surprises, and we will make sure to be back soon!

It was pouring outside when they told me that I can't have the wrap that I ordered from them in the restaurant because they don't allow people to enjoy certain items after 3pm. The restaurant was empty and still that's the policy they followed and didn't even consider the bead weather outside. Absolutely horrible.

Went with 3 kids, sign outside (pic attached) says "Special Offers", no mention of times or restrictions, kids got excited and picked what they each wanted. Was told when sat down that they are only available at lunchtime, and they've never had anyone else ask for them out of lunch hours!!! OKAY!!! Quite a standoff-ish tone and approach from the lady, who I assume is the owner. We ordered from the standard menu and all enjoyed the meal. Portions a bit small, but I must say the food was good! £10 for a double Gordons Gin??? Do me a favour!! From now on I will stick with the amazing Persian restaurants in West Ealing. If you want a good food and this place is local to you I'm sure you will enjoy the food. Just don't expect anything else. I wouldn't recommend you go out of your way though!

Came across the misleading signage outside of Acton Town Station and wanted the 'specials' to be told that these are lunch specials - we came in at around 7pm!!! Completely lapse and more ridiculous that they charge a 10% service charge for 0% service!! No explanation if the menu or acknowledgement of the misleading boards. Drinks are overpriced. Food I would simply jump on further to West Ealing to get a much more pleasant Persian menu and better service. These people pry on locals and tourists. Not again.

I came to the restaurant with a Persian friend so you know it's close to authentic as possible. She recommended me to try some dishes to try and it was amazing, so flavourful, would definitely come here again!

Arkadaşımız iranlı olması nedeniyle bizi buraya getirdi ve doyası adana kebabına benzer safranlı pilav eşliğinde kubide yedik diğer avrupa seyahatlerimizdeki gibi aç kalacağımız düşünürken tıka basa yedik porsiyonlar oldukça büyük fiyatlar uygun kullanılan etten ötürü çok lezzetli denemez ama memlekete bu kadar uzakta bundan iyisi londra da adana kebabı.

A more upmarket looking interior but lacking in friendly service and quality of food is far behind compared to the more traditional restaurants a couple of minutes walk up the road.
