Haftsin in Leeds

The first time we were trying Haftsin it was fabulous, we got boneless chicken it was tender and juicy you could feel real taste of Safran, generous portions , in conclusion everything was perfect thanks.

Loved the food - very polite staff

If you want real taste of food try here you would never regret and you come again and again

We ate two meals in the restaurant, and the taste was very good, the quantity was excellent, and the employee’s reception was the height of taste. We asked him for a lot of help. When we arrived, we ordered an Uber, and he did not take it short with us. I strongly recommend it. The order was a mixed grill plate with rice and yoghurt salad, all delicious

THE best Persian restaurant (coming from an actual Persian 🤭) 10/10 will recommend ♥️

Great restaurant, clean, delicious food, excellent service, halal 👏🏼

Really nice and beautiful Iranian dishes love the big portions

A beautiful restaurant with great food

Food was amazing, staff where great and on their toes every second.. could see myself eating there again someday

I think it's the best Persian restaurant in Leeds. Kebabs and stews are fantastic.

Authentic Persian food. Wide selection of kebabs, stews and drinks. I have been here several time over the last 10 years and the food is always the same, tasty fresh and well prepared. Staffs are very nice and helpful. It also is gluten free. They accept card and cash. Highly recommend this Middle Eastern restaurant.

I can say with confidence so far this is the best Iranian restaurant you can find in leeds, the food quality, friendly staff and atmosphere

Authentic and delicious. Highly recommended.

We were a big family group of 35. We pre-booked and were advised we would be seated upstairs which we had to ourselves. We were advised to pre order and we went for mixed hot and cold starters and the Haftsin Special. The food was excellent and we were looked after very well by the manager. Would highly recommend!

This is one of those places that from the outside can look as if it will be nothing special but get inside and taste the food and you realise what a treat it is. Service very good and all very reasonably priced

I come here regularly, very good food with friendly service

Finally had the chance to try this place, wasn’t disappointed at all, very fresh food, fast service and big portions of food. Had kabab kubeda and lamb chops and mast o khyar ( yogurt and cucumber salad) so testy. Highly recommended

Tasty food, can get a little cramped inside though ...we were seated right next to the serving hatch from the kitchen

We ordered the eggplant curd starter, it was not tasty at all, the poison of the eggplant was disturbing, the walnuts and onions were not hot, the color was dark, as if the eggplant had been boiled, it was very bad. Its volume was very small, of course, because it could not be eaten, it was better. They did not have dressing for the season salad. When we asked, they said sorry, we are short. I hope you can be better.

Best place in Leeds food is amazing as always

We visited today with my friend for her graduation. All together, there were 20 of us and they treated us all so nicely and were so patient when they took all of our orders especially the female waiter she was so so lovely and kept asking us if we needed anything. They seated us upstairs so it was very spacious and comfortable for us all! The food was amazing and the portions were large so we were all very satisfied which says a lot about the restaurant and the quality it was able to provide.

The food was tasteless and over cooked the rice had barely any saffron and to top it all the babaganoush was ruined by having all sort of shenanigans inside red pepper and load of other stuff that should not be inside its all about the aubergine and the tahini it's a -100 for me

Thank you for your excellent customer service as well as your tasty persian dishes.

this was my second trip to haftsin and i was thoroughly impressed. we tried the shared meal for 3 and the lamb chops were incredible. would definitely recommend

Very good quality food. The staff were friendly and the service was exceptional.

I ordered grilled chicken and macaroni. The price of the dishes was cheap and the portions were large. I like the macaroni very much. The macaroni has a rich milky flavor and a special spice aroma.

Tried many places that cook this type of cuisine, hands down Haftsin's is always number 1. Staff are really welcoming to

It's our family's favourite place for dinner, but it's getting a bit pricey these days but still the best place for food selection 🙂.

Great people, place, food and price - no drinks licence but you can bring your own without corkage charge - I love it!

It was absolutely amazing , great food , very fresh and large portions with a wonderful taste and quality . 10/10 will be back again

If you want authentic Persian food, Haftsin restaurant is a great place. They have tasty grilled dishes that are cooked well and will make you happy. The staff is friendly, and they make sure you have a nice time

everything is great except small car park front of the shop, but is it always busy isn’t to find easy park car

Nice little restaurant with delicious and authentic middle Eastern food.Very friendly service as well

Food is great Chicken was cooked perfectly and paired beautifully with the rice. Will definitely be visiting again

Food was superb. However, sightly disappointed that they're still selling Coca-Cola etc and not boycotting. Free🇵🇸

Delicious and big portions. Thanks for friendly service.

Super clean nourishing food. Good prices and excellent accommodating staff. Use this every time I'm in leeds

Good service good owner clean shop high quality

Lovely place very clean and lovely staff. The food was beautiful. My only little negative would be the wait for the food but everything is freshly prepared and cooked so the wait is fine. Thanks for a lovely evening

Nice food as always. Very polite staff. Me and my family very like this restaurant

Delicious lamb Kobideh to go sandwich - tasted fresh. Greeted by the friendly owner and his staff.

Best food I've eaten in a while, succulent chicken, hot fresh rice , loved being able to watch inside the kitchen , all the different things being freshly cooked over charcoal, staff friendly, just had forgotten our drinks and Naan breads but that was rectified. Will return !

Great Iranian/ Persian restaurant in Leeds! Had a delicious aubergine started then the chicken stew, both full of flavour! Able to accommodate a large group at short notice! Friendly staff and quick service!

Always like coming here. Great food, lovely service

Best Mediterranean food in Leeds! Staff are extremely friendly and the environment is very welcoming!

I would probably say that is one of best Persian restaurants I’ve been so far in Yorkshire the kebab that they have is the exact kebab you eat in Iran not like others and I would give 5 stars for the food and staffs are friendly and the restaurant is quite nice and clean too

If you’re looking for a place where you can find delicious food and great customer service this restaurant is the best choice ever. great experience definitely recommend it

Fantastic Food and friendly Staff highly recommend

Great food and good quick service. I would definitely recommend it.

Absolutely top quality food. If you’re after a Persian kebab or stew look no further. Best in Leeds by far

THE WORSED SERVICE IN THE WORLD. Don't reserve as they don't know the meaning of it. They don't even care if they turn you away. This is like the 10th time the service is shocking. And then to make it better they put you upstairs where they get changed. Previously ate here and food is bland chops are good but honestly don't bother.

Definitely recommend this place..we keep going back again and again for the delicious and freshly cooked food !!!

One of the best Persian restaurant in Leeds, excellent service and delicious food.

Great restaurant and great foood.. everythng was soo good and one of their staff samiksha was really good at her job.

One of the best and underrated restaurant in Leeds. Massive portions, proper taste. The menu is great, chicken with rice and pomegran fantastic. Service fast, friendly, and professional. Lamb shank is something to try. A main is around £15/17 and it's so big that you struggle to eat everything.

Lovely food. Specially the loubia polo. Yum.

الاكل لذيذ ونظيف ويستحق الزياره

Best halal food in Leeds I think

من افضل المطاعم الايرانيه في ليدز وخصوصا كباب اللحم وعنده باميه لحم انصح بتجربتها

The meet biryani is really good.

Food was amazing. Very clean and tasted amazing. Would recommend

Renowned Middle East restaurant- some great dishes. A bit pricey. Disappointed that.most of the drinks were on Bds list and no fizzy alternative. Maybe something the business can consider

One of the best Iranian restaurants in leeds Mix grilled dishes and rice options are the best here

Our favourite Persian food in Leeds!

Great food reasonable priced. Been going for nearly 13 years I must say I always com back the bread to die for..

It’s definitely one of the best Iranian restaurants in Leeds and I recommend it to everyone not only Persians.

27/11/23 Update Just as good!! One of my favourite restaurants in Leeds. I haven't been for a while and the food was just as good...If not better! Fast service, despite being busy. Hand sanitizer on our table. We over ordered and even ordered a take away as well!!! Love that you can get half chips and rice when dining in Highly recommend the grills... Other half said lamb chips was very good!

Great staff great service .. food is 10/10 definitely recommend and will go again .

Fantastic small restaurant with amazing food and friendly staff

Unbelievably good food with excellent service, 100% worth a visit. Desserts are also wonderful plus it's BYOB which is always a bonus

Lovely food. Nice service. Saffron rice could do with a bit more saffron 😊

Second time we have dined there, the food was ok but not really too my taste

Our favourite Persian food in Leeds. Generous and authentic. Food always taste the same.

Chefs doesn't wear gloves and handle food with their hands

The food were tasty and very clean I recommend it

The food was delicious and the portions more than adequate (for lunch, two of us split a main course and a hot starter, and we would’ve had leftovers if I hadn’t been very hungry!). However I have to take off a star because they refused to serve me tap water, which is very unusual. Given this costs almost nothing and is almost universal at UK restaurants, this left an unpleasant taste in my mouth.

Friendly service, good food, the lighting was a bit dark and the decor was clean and simple if not a bit dark. My lamb shank was top notch and my daughters chicken skewer was moist and tender although the rice wasn't the best. Slightly dryer than expected for restaurant standard. Odd that they don't serve tap water though and only offered bottled water at a cost which wasn't great. That aside everything else was pleasant.

Very small restaurant so it’s best to book ahead - people literally queue outside for a table. The food is absolutely amazing, go for the mixed platter if you want to try a bit of everything. The deserts were beautiful too. No alcohol allowed but there are soft drinks on the menu. My only criticism is that it lacked a bit of atmosphere and felt a bit more like a busy cafe than a restaurant, can’t put my finger on why but it didn’t feel like a special night out. Well worth trying it out though and the staff were lovely even though it was very busy.

Great food abs service definitely making this a regular spot

Very good service and food so Delicious

Amazing food, really good price and good portion sizes. I'll be back here whenever I'm in Leeds for Persian food.

Used to enjoy Persian food,asked if the kebab still prepared chargrill style before booking ,asured but it was not.Second mix starters was tired,after taste ,stale,not nice.Kebab was not chargrill ,stale bad taste.I was really looking forward to enjoy the food with my family and friend but spoiled by not bothered service provider.Well not going back.

The food is VERY VERY delicious and the service is 10/10 الاكل لذيذ و الخدمه ممتازه

We had chicken and minced lamb kebabs with tomatoes, small salad & they come with choice of nan or chips you get 2 kebabs with each meal. Ours were around £12 each. Kids meals were half a kebab and chips around £8. No tap water available and only bottled water. Food was freshly made and very nice.

I, as a regular customer, can say that the food and the service of this restaurant has always been impeccable. However, on Sunday I ordered some kebab and it was all split into pieces and it didn’t have the usual quantity. Otherwise this restaurant always provides great quality food and fantastic service, the staff are an awful kind and respectful to all consumers.

Really lovely food and the staff are really friendly.

Yummy Persian food we all enjoyed the taste.. i recomment kobedeh kebab and the bamyah..

Brilliant oriental food, freshly made all the time and the staff are great

Really enjoyed this place, very authentic. The decor is nothing fancy TBH, but great food and the staff were friendly & attentive. Really like that the kids options are smaller protions of the adult meals..not just chicken nuggets & fish fingers like so many places do. The food was delicious, we enjoyed everything we ordered and we all cleared our plates.

Possibly the best Persian restaurant in the whole of Yorkshire!

thank you for the beautiful kebab prompt quality service. People are very nice here. Don’t understand the bad rep in the other reviews. Kheyli motshakram, daaste shoma daad nakone.

Great service - quick polite and ver well Mannered staff . Make you feel welcome Food is good too , I have not been here for a while and it was great to be back They also have an event venue upstairs to host any birthday parties etc

Best Saffron rice you can get. I had the lamb shank stew, spot on. Always quality and friendly staff 👌

الاطباق كبيرة تكفي شخصين ولذيذجداااا اسعاره مناسبه ..

الاكل لذيذ والتشكيلة جيدة والسعر لا بأس به ولديهم شوربة لذيذة ولكن مشكلته موسيقى صاخبة ومزعجة ولا تستطيع ان تتحدث مع من معك الا بالصراخ..

Lovely little place. Food was spot on, we got the Haftsin Special to share, which was really delicious. Would highly recommend a visit. The staff a friendly and welcoming.

Very delicious food, lovely environment, clean lavatories, parking was a bit of an issue (had to park across the busy road in a Carpark, but I highly recommend!

Best Persian food in Yorkshire by a long way having sampled multiple restaurants. Owner is extremely nice man, always friendly and ensures you are well looked after. Food is always high quality, with great portions and fantastic value for money. The Haftsin special has become my go to and I look forward to the next visit!

Nice little place frequented by locals which is always a good sign. Server was very friendly. Ordered heftin special with side of hummus and 2 pepsi's for £50. We were both stuffed. All the meats were beautifully spiced. The lamb chops were succulent and tasty. Persian rice was light, fluffy and flavoursome. Recommended if you like persian food/mixed meat dishes. Also a nice touch that the dipping sauce is left at the table so you do not have to ask for more like other restaurants!
