Crystal Cuisine in Croydon - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Four of us went to this restaurant on the advice of the trip advisor. The owner was a very angry man. We tried to make friendly conversation but he was a very stressed individual. The food quality was good. Later on a group of parents with unruly children arrived and the owner went mad at his waitresses and started shouting at them. The waitress came and apologised to us as we could understand his abusive language. Totally unacceptable environment for the staff.

Been here several times now and have also had delivered. Really nice chicken and lamb kebab, flatbreads etc. friendly service. My partner is of Iranian origin and it's her favourite Persian restaurant so far in London

Have been to this place multiple times with my family without an issue. Today, within 5 minutes of being seated the owner shouted from the back of the restaurant to stop my son from knocking his plates with his spoon. For reference he had only done this once and we would have stopped him. We were subsequently escorted out of the restaurant when I called him out for his unacceptable behaviour. Extremely rude and not worth a visit at all for anyone with young children. The owner also seemed upset that we came without a reservation to an empty restaurant. Not family friendly at all

This place has poor customer service which is appalling considering it’s mostly empty. Food quality is nothing above average. Will never be returning here again. Many better options for persian food in London.

we went here on a Friday night as a family and really enjoyed the experience. staff are friendly and the service is really fast. the food was really delicious. we had aubergine with walnuts salad Olivier salad sabsi Grilled chicken with rice lamb shank with rice chicken and lamb with rice

If you want excellent food at a reasonable price, a high standard of service, attention to detail, friendly staff and an authentic flavour, then this place is for you. Our waiter took the trouble to explain the different dishes and the cooking techniques. It really helped us to choose, as we hadn't sampled Persian cuisine before. The dishes we had were beautifully cooked and the flavours were delicious. The Persian flatbread was freshly cooked in the bread oven and we were able to watch it being done. The dishes are mostly lamb and chicken, with some fish. A limited choice for vegetarians. The choice of fruit smoothies was huge. Our waiter gave us a dessert on the house which was beautiful. A welcome change of desserts to the very boring British ones that seem standard in most establishments. I was too full to sample the saffron ice cream, but will do next time . . . This place is a must for people wanting to sample fine food with excellent service. We would thoroughly recommend it.
