Outstanding Catering Experience – Highly Recommended! We had the pleasure of working with molana_catering for our Hafez Persian School 25th anniversary and Norouz celebration on Sunday, 23rd March at the Hilton Hotel, and we couldn't be more delighted with their service! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The food was incredibly delicious, beautifully presented, and thoroughly enjoyed by all our guests. Every dish was prepared with great attention to detail, capturing the authentic flavors we were hoping for. The entire catering team was exceptional—polite, professional, and incredibly friendly. Their service was flawless, ensuring that every guest was well taken care of throughout the event. They went above and beyond to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making our celebration even more special. We are truly grateful for their dedication and outstanding service, and we would highly recommend molana_catering to anyone looking for top-quality catering. Thank you for making our event unforgettable!

One of my favourite UK restaurants. Everything about the place is sublime. We visited regularly 10 years ago, before we had children. We visit now with the children and it’s just as good. They love the food. Fantastic food. Attentive , professional and friendly service. Good tables. Not cramped. Well balanced atmosphere. Not too quiet. Not rowdy. Nice mix of customers making it a welcoming atmosphere. We like Persian restaurants in general. Molana’s stands out.

I appreciated the atmosphere and the polite service at this restaurant. However, as a Persian restaurant, I expected more in terms of food quality. The Ghormeh Sabzi was a bit disappointing, and the rice didn’t meet my expectations. On the bright side, the kebabs were flavorful and well-prepared. I also really enjoyed the decor—it added a nice touch to the overall dining experience. While there’s room for improvement with some dishes, it’s worth a visit for the ambiance and kebabs.

I ordered a Ghormeh Sabzi and a Gheymeh, and they were really bad with no quality at all. There were cobwebs on the ceiling, and the staff had no proper manners. They didn’t even once ask if we needed anything. There was no call bell on the table, so we couldn’t even call for their attention. Also, there was no paper towel in the restroom for drying hands. In my opinion, this place is not up to the standards of an Iranian restaurant.

Had to book last minute for Valentine’s Day and I can say they did not let me down. I was running late but thankfully I called them and they accommodated accordingly. The food as always was delicious, koobideh with rice, grilled tomato on top. As a man of course I forgot to get flowers as they were sold out everywhere on the day of valentines. However, without even having to ask, they provided me with a flower and card to give to the Mrs. I would give 6 stars if I could. Thank you to the staff at Molana for saving me from the dog house.

This place used to be really good but not anymore. They’ve made their koobideh super thin that it’s actually noticeable. The second thing is they don’t add tomato with your meal which is odd every kebab comes with tomato. I had to ask them do you not serve tomato with the kebab anymore? Which he replied we do so I asked where Isit? And he said he will go get it. Came back with two tomato when half the meal had already been done. Then asked us to pay in cash to obv avoid tax. This was a mess as I don’t carry cards and I wanted to pay for my friend and my meal which she ended up getting cash as she had card and you can imagine she didn’t accept my bank transfer afterwards. This is really embarrassing as I wanted to make her my guest. I used to come here a lot now I will avoid at all cost. You will eventually lose all your clients.

WORST PLACE EVER IF YOU ARE BLACK!!! We were completely ignored by the waiters, makes me wonder whether it’s because we were the only black couple in the restaurant. After seating down for half an hour, calling waiters who just went past our table, we decided to leave and never go back-they never even approached to ask whether we had been served. Never ever going back and definitely it’s the worst experience ever.

This place continues to get worse and worse. Food is fine, service is non existent. Their little payment kiosk is always full of surprises, with preferences for cash (sometimes over insistence, or lies about their card machine connection going down) a guarantee. Not sure it's very genuine to have a lunch menu at the front but not explaining that the same dish can be ordered at lunch with two sizes. Why should I have to go through two menus to understand their rules. Sadly it's amateur behaviour. Just not worth the hassle and shoddy experience. Sorry guys, get some help for front of house.

Food was ok, nothing special. What irritated us was that we were asked to go to the front desk to settle the bill. In doing so , they told us that only cash payments could be made that day (last week). The waiter pointed to a cash machine across the street suggesting where to go to withdraw cash. I DON’T USE CASH !!!! It’s 2024 !!! I also had heard that this was not the first time “their credit card connection was down”. It comes across to me as a ploy just to receive payment in cash. You’ve been warned folks !!!

On our recent visit to Molana Persian Restaurant. While there were aspects of our experience that we enjoyed, there were also some significant drawbacks that affected our overall impression. On the positive side, we appreciated the prompt preparation and freshness of the food. It's unfortunate that your request for well-done kebabs was ignored. When dining out, it's important for restaurants to accommodate reasonable requests, especially when it comes to food preparation preferences. Looks like our waiter did not communicate effectively to the kitchen staff. Several aspects of our visit that detracted from our enjoyment. The lack of space between tables caused discomfort. The constant presence of waiters around our table felt intrusive and created a sense of being rushed through our meal. Additionally, the mandatory 10% service charge felt excessive given the overall experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of dining at Molana Persian Restaurant in West London, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience! Traveling all the way from Edinburgh, I was eager to explore the culinary delights of Persian cuisine, and Molana did not disappoint. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with lovely decor that set the perfect backdrop for our meal. The service was outstanding – the staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making excellent recommendations. Now, let’s talk about the food! Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The kebabs were perfectly grilled, tender, and juicy, while the aromatic rice was fluffy and paired wonderfully with each item. We also indulged in some traditional starters that left our taste buds dancing with joy. Overall, our visit to Molana was worth every mile of our journey from Edinburgh. If you're looking for an authentic Persian dining experience in West London, look no further than Molana. I can't recommend it highly enough!

We ordered a mixed grill for four, drinks for four, and tea for four. However, we were charged an additional £51.32. The restaurant served naan, appetizers, and zoolbia banieh without us ordering them, which added to the bill. My total should have been £102.90, but I was overcharged by £51.32. I won’t be returning to this restaurant. While the food itself was good, be cautious if you’re dining with guests—sometimes extra items are brought to the table without being requested, making it difficult to dispute the charges.

We were a big group of kids and ladies and they said we don’t accept cards and when I said I don’t have cash the lady said Apple Pay is fine. It was a non sense and probably tax fraud they are up to. Please don’t visit this place as there many many Persian restaurants which are amazing food and service and they care about customer satisfaction

We've visited Molana multiple times for dinner, and it has become one of our favorite spots! Every visit is a delightful experience, and this time was no exception. We ordered Kobeydeh with Naan bread, and as always, it was delicious. The Kobeydeh was flavorful and tender, grilled to perfection, and paired wonderfully with the soft, fresh Naan bread. We also tried the Doogh and Persian Ice Cream—both unique and absolutely amazing! The Doogh was refreshing with just the right hint of salt and mint, while the Persian ice cream was rich, creamy, and had that distinct taste of saffron and rosewater. It was unlike any other dessert we've had and definitely worth a try. The ambiance at Molana is warm and cozy, with a very welcoming vibe that makes the dining experience even better. The staff is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the meal. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner and always look forward to coming back. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience authentic Persian cuisine in a comfortable, cozy setting!

I regularly come here, and so does my family. However, recently the place has been poor, and so is the customer service. Lady over the phone, does not answer phone professionally. She is the only one that tries to charge me for any extra sauces when other members never does so. It has always been complimentary. Last time I came, they have mixed up my order and the gentlemen said “I will sort you out next time you come” I have even tried to explain this, but yet she STILL refused and doesn’t even try to check internally. She is acting like her life and job is dependent on that extra charge. She struts around the restaurant acting like she owns the place. Lost a loyal customer due to her poor attitude, and will also inform my family not to come back here due to her poor customer service. That was the cherry on top.

This place has finally hit rock bottom. We came in—foolishly—with high expectations, as usual, but we clearly overestimated the ability of the staff to deliver anything remotely decent. Right from the start, the attitude of the staff was unbearable. Most of them strut around like they own the place, as if they’re too good to be serving customers. I don’t know who they think they are, but basic human decency apparently isn’t a prerequisite to work here. Then there’s the food—if you can even call it that. We’ve been coming here for a while, and over the past year, the quality has nosedived straight into the gutter. But this last visit? The final nail in the coffin. The portions were insulting—a quarter of the rice they used to serve—and the kebabs? Practically hollow, like they’d somehow figured out how to serve air disguised as meat. One of the plates was so drenched in oil it looked like they were prepping it for an engine, not a customer. If I wanted that much oil, I’d go to a garage, not a restaurant. And if that wasn’t bad enough, the service hit an all-time low. The moment I stood up to put on my jacket—literally just standing up—the staff rushed over like they were chasing us out. It was like they couldn’t wait to clear the table, probably hoping we’d leave faster so they wouldn’t have to pretend to care anymore. And they didn’t stop there. No, they hovered around us, practically breathing down our necks, waiting for us to finally get up and leave so they could stop pretending to be “working.” We might as well have been handed our coats along with a shove out the door. It’s a shame to watch a place sink this low, but after this abysmal experience, we’re done. This is the last time we’ll subject ourselves to this circus masquerading as a restaurant. Good riddance.

Molana: Where Time Stops and Taste Goes on Vacation If you're looking to experience time standing still, Molana in Ealing is the place for you! I’m pretty sure I aged a few years waiting for my meal. By the time the food arrived, I felt like I’d lived through two seasons of a Netflix series and finished a memoir about patience. The kebabs? Let’s just say I’ve had more tender conversations with my Wi-Fi router. Dry, overcooked, and I’m fairly certain they were whispering “help me” as I tried to chew. As for the portion sizes—blink and you’ll miss them. It’s like they’re trying to redefine the word “minimalism.” The service was… interesting. At one point, I began wondering if I was on some hidden camera show where the challenge was to see how long we could survive without napkins or cutlery. Spoiler: I lost. Overall, if you're a fan of long waits, dry food, and service that leaves you questioning your life choices, Molana is the spot. Otherwise, I’d recommend trying literally anywhere else in Ealing! This keeps things light-hearted while still communicating the issues.

I went Molana in Ealing on Thursday 10 th October 2024 for dinner. I ordered shishlik e makhsoos, can of coke,virgin mahito drink. I ordered salmon fillet as well because i can not eat meat and chicken for the time being. I was shocked when 2 slice of salmon fillet came without spices nothing marinated on the fish. Very tasteless without spices. when we grilled or barbecue fish we need to marinated some spices which is must to make delicious taste even you didn't put any chilly or salt on it You grilled simple without spices not even any fish masala If you don't know how to make fish then why you written in your menue. First learn how to grilled or barbecue fish otherwise cross them out from the menue It was horrible taste Fish was with rice just 1tiny slice cucumber 1little small tamato tiny bit beat root. We came few times before but they don't know how to provide good salad.You should know what salad called in uk. I wasted my money for the fish even they charged extra 10 % for customers service also food is already expensive. You only know how to make money from customers thats all. I think all middle Eastern resturant expensive greedy peoples for the money. Even don't have good customers service i dont understand why you charging extra 10% for the customers service. You should learn customers service from Nandos thats why Nandos all over the world. What amazing customer service even cheaper than your. All grilled food , You don't know what is the meaning of customers service even not smile on your employees faces. Like Someone focing them to work in your resturant It was tasteless fish. I think fish and chips shop got better taste than your. Can of coke, virgin mahito is very expensive If we compare to others. In mahito lemon and mints thats all You don't have good sauces. Your people's just know how to cook good rice and kebab that's all. How possible 1 bone came from the salmon fillet it shouldn't be like that. Your resturant is very expensive than others. £65 for two only main course without starter or dessert. imagen if with starter or desert then? You should learn how to make salad. Who ever thinking to order salmon fillet pls dont order. You will realised after eating that you wasted your money. Anyway I will not come back also not anyones to recommend.

Recientemente llevé a mis padres al restaurante Molana en septiembre de 2024 (solía ser cliente habitual en 2015 - 2017). La comida se veía bien, pero desarrollé diarrea severa esa noche, y mis padres experimentaron lo mismo. Si bien podía pasar por alto eso, me molestó mucho el hecho de que el hombre a cargo (parece ser el gerente, alto y grandullón) fue extremadamente grosero e insistió en que debía pagar en efectivo, alegando que no aceptan tarjetas. Uno de sus compañeros me trajo la máquina y me permitió pagar con tarjeta. Este buen tipo fue despedido públicamente por el gerente, quien le dijo que asegurara que los clientes pagaran en efectivo primero. Sé que algunos restaurantes baratos hacen esto para evadir impuestos, pero pensé que era un restaurante decente. El comportamiento del gerente era poco profesional, y perdió un cliente habitual.

Food ok, Service could be better, especially from the old boy (a smile could go a long way) Asked him if he could help with what to have. Felt like I was asking too much, although he pointed to the most expensive thing on the menu without any questions, Just order whatever, eat pay and go attitude, So we did. The lunchtime atmosphere was… 3 other tables dining, friends coming and going and talking to staff members, added to the atmosphere. Price:£60+ for 3 lunch menu + drinks. The experience wasn’t great but I like to explore more of the Persian menu with a little guidance. But probably try elsewhere just because of the lack of hospitality.

I recently took my parents to Molana restaurant in September 2024 (I used to be a regular customer in 2015-2017). The food looked fine, but I developed severe diarrhea that night, and my parents experienced the same. While I could overlook that, I was really bothered by the fact that the man in charge (seems to be the manager, tall and big guy) was extremely rude and insisted that I should pay by cash, claiming they don’t accept cards. One of his colleagues brought me the machine and allowed me to pay by card. This nice guy was publicly told off by the manager, who told him to ensure customers pay by cash first. I know some cheap restaurants do this to evade taxes, but I thought this was a decent restaurant. The manager’s behaviour was unprofessional, and he lost a regular customer.

I’ve visited many Iranian restaurants across England, and I can confidently say this one is the best. The food was unique and absolutely delicious. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly, which made the experience even better. We ordered baqali polo with lamb shank and qormeh sabzi—both dishes were flavorful, served in generous portions, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone!

La comida en Molana es excelente 👌 pero los precios son demasiado altos especialmente el jojeh y arroz y Kobeideh y arroz. También las porciones de estos platos son más pequeñas. Deberían bajar sus precios.

II have been a loyal customer of Molana's for over five years. On Saturday, September 28th, I visited the restaurant with my family to celebrate my son's birthday. Unfortunately, the service we received was very slow and inattentive. We placed an order for starters and the main meal. Four out of the three starters arrived, but the fourth one was delayed by 45 minutes. When we inquired about the delay, the staff kept assuring us that the food would be ready in 5 minutes. However, this turned out to be inaccurate, as we waited for over 35 minutes beyond the promised time. We noticed that other guests who had ordered after us received their meals and finished before us. I felt somewhat disrespected by this situation, as it appeared that the other guests, who seemed to be from the same community as the staff, received better service than we did. Although the restaurant did offer a discount and an apology, I believe that this was not sufficient to address the inconvenience and disappointment we experienced..

We arrived at 7;45/8:00 and we ordered the food within 10/15 , but their service was very bad and the food came really late ,we were also charged for bread to have with hummus as it used to be free, it wasn’t a problem for us to pay but we had to several times before someone got us a basket of bread. We wanted to eat together but the dishes kept coming one by one and bit cold. Not going there again till they get their standards high

I recently dined at Molana for the third time in six months, and while I typically enjoy their KooKoo Sabzi as a starter, this visit was disappointing. The KooKoo Sabzi wasn't fresh or crispy like I remembered. However, the Goormeh Sabzi as a main course was delicious, featuring tender lamb and rich flavors. I hope the KooKoo Sabzi returns to its former glory on my next visit!

The manager of this restaurant was super disrespectful towards myself. I asked him can I use the toilet and he said no. I stated to him that I am on my period and he still refused. I asked him why , and he said because I said no. I said I am going to be eating at this restaurant today and he still refused. He did not speak in a polite manner especially to customers. I would highly recommend eating elsewhere and spending your hard earned money to a business who really appreciate their customers and staff. He most likely woke up in a bad mood because he didn’t even seem to be bothered that he was being disrespectful. Why would I spend my money here when I can’t even use the toilet ! Useless man needs to find a job he actually enjoys.

Waiters kept being pushy and asking to pay the bill in cash, saying their card machine was broken. Saying they only take cash, which we were not made aware when seated at the restaurant nor is there a sign to say this is cash only. Another member in the group was told that payments are only in cash and to go to a cash machine close to Molana by the lady manning the card machine. Same lady is taking my payment saying their card machine doesn’t have good connection and that’s why they want cash instead. She was very rude in her tone. Card machine turned out to be working fine. This seems to be an ongoing issue based of other reviews that have had similar experiences. There are better Persian restaurants in the local area. Molana is overpriced and unpleasant.

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.
