Persian Taste in Hertsmere

We had the mixed grill for two. The chicken and lamb were tender and superbly cooked as was the rice. The owner and his staff are really attentive. I would certainly recommend this restaurant and it is certainly good as any other Iranian restaurant in London

It’s I recently had the pleasure of dining at Persian Taste and it was a truly delightful experience. The food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The kebabs were juicy and perfectly grilled, the rice was fragrant and fluffy, and the stews were rich and hearty - especially the kubideh, which was full of detail.

Special place for experience am Iranian dish. specially kubide kebab warm customer service. Highly recommend. great quality of food

⸻ This place is such a great spot for Persian brunch. The food is fresh, flavorful, and feels homemade . We had dishes like kuku sabzi, sossiss bandari, and omelet gojeh—everything was so tasty. The warm bread with cheese, and walnuts was perfect to start with, and the tea was strong and fragrant, just like it should be. The vibe is really nice too—relaxed and cozy, with friendly staff who make you feel welcome. It’s a great place to go with friends or family for something different and delicious. If you’re a fan of Persian food or want to try something new for brunch, definitely give this place a try. I’ll be coming back for sure!

Very tasty and very hygienic food. The staff treated the customers very respectfully and kindly. I had a very good experience and will come back to this restaurant when I return to Potters Bar.

Great customer service and that food was great 👍

What a little gem. Found this place on a spontaneous day trip to London visiting from Manchester. Parked up at Potters Bar, went to London and back. Had a gorgeous meal at this authentic Persian restaurant. Lovely atmosphere. We were welcomed, ushered straight to our table. Food came literally within minutes. Had a sharing platter for 4/6. Struggled to finish it. Dessert was a delicious mix of Persian ice cream, saffron with a hint of rose and pistachio and an extra chocolate one added for good measure. Highly recommended, would definitely come again!

The talented chef crafts exquisite dishes that tantalize the taste buds, while the attentive team on the floor elevates your experience with their warm hospitality.

It is absuletely perfect Its worth to go Yummy food Freidndly environment 👌🏻👌🏻

Absolutely perfect. Relaxed environment with excellent food and very kind service. This will be a regular place for our family from now on.

I used to be a big fan of this place, but unfortunately, the quality and taste have significantly declined. As a Persian myself, I’ve noticed a big change in the food, not only my kebab was fully burnt but the service has become unreliable, with bread being forgotten multiple times (even when asked). I won’t be returning here and will be heading to Shayyans in Barnet for better food and service.

As an Iranian who has visited many Persian restaurants in London, I can confidently say that Persian Taste is among the best. The food was absolutely delicious, with authentic flavors that reminded me of home. But what truly stood out was the exceptional customer service—the staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel genuinely welcome. A great experience overall, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for high-quality Persian cuisine

This was our second time visiting Persian Taste & I must say the food quality only gets better. We had a very nice chilled Friday evening & the owner was a gentleman. I asked for my partners lamb to be taken away (portions are big) and he was kind enough to add a large portion of rice to accompany her leftovers without us asking. Great place, very affordable. Would definitely recommend. We’ll be back.

They have to be careful the food has started not being consistent... so my chichen was tiny pieces & less than my friend allb4vof us noticed that!!

Such an amazing atmosphere and very delicious food. One of the best places in the London area.

The food is fantastic, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff provided us with an exceptional experience

Fantastic meal. Would highly recommend.

Excellent food and service. Made our Persian New Year a very enjoyable experience.

It was such lovely experience, the atmosphere was cozy. The food tastes like my grandma’s cooking, so delicious and elegant. The waiter was kind enough to bring us free tea and a slice of homemade cake. Will definitely come again 👍🏼

Excellent cooking, good service, quiet, peaceful place, I recommend it.

Persian Taste is hands down one of the best Persian restaurants I’ve ever been to! The food is absolutely delicious—each dish is packed with authentic flavors and made with high-quality ingredients. The kebabs were perfectly grilled, the stews were rich and flavorful, and the saffron rice was simply amazing. The ambiance is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring a great dining experience from start to finish. If you’re looking for authentic Persian cuisine with excellent service, Persian Taste is the place to go. Highly recommend

Excellent staff, High food quality, reasonable price, good packaging availability

The food was very good. May your hands rest in peace and thank you.

Exceptional Dining Experience – A Hidden Gem! I recently had the pleasure of dining at Persian taste, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the beautiful interior – a perfect blend of elegance and comfort that created a calming and inviting atmosphere. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, going above and beyond to ensure our visit was perfect. Their friendly demeanor and attentive service made us feel truly valued as guests. As for the food – absolutely outstanding! Each dish was prepared with care, bursting with flavor, and presented beautifully. The portion sizes were generous, offering fantastic value for the quality served. Every bite was a delight, and I can honestly say this was one of the most satisfying dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. If you’re looking for a place that combines delicious food, a serene ambiance, and exceptional service, I highly recommend Persian taste I’ll definitely be returning soon!

The food was amazing, the best Nowruz dish I had.

Lovely family feel restaurant. We went for the Persian new year and had a delicious sabzi polo (dill rice) with sea bass and the broad bean rice with leg of lamb. Would definitely recommend!

First time visit and it will now be our go to in Potters Bar. Fabulous tasty food, personal service and a relaxed vibe. The Persian soup is amazing!

A Hidden Gem for Authentic Persian Cuisine I visited Persian Taste with my wife and our two younger children to break our fast, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The restaurant is clean, cosy, and welcoming, with ample pay-and-display parking conveniently available outside. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that truly set the tone for the evening. The food was outstanding,easily among the best Persian cuisine we’ve had. For starters, we had falafel and halloumi fries, both of which were cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. The mains were equally impressive; we enjoyed the chicken shish, lamb koobideh, and a mixed grill; each dish was tender, well-seasoned, and expertly prepared. One of the standout aspects of our visit was the exceptional service. The owner was incredibly attentive, ensuring that our children were comfortable and making thoughtful adjustments to accommodate them. His genuine hospitality made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers. His daughter, who was also serving, provided equally fantastic service, reinforcing the family-friendly nature of the restaurant. What truly impressed me was their honesty about portion sizes, advising us not to over-order—a rare but much-appreciated gesture. Persian Taste is truly a hidden gem in Potters Bar, an establishment that not only delivers incredible food but also provides an unparalleled dining experience. It absolutely deserves its five-star rating, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for authentic Persian cuisine with top-tier service. We will definitely be returning!

Excellent food, Excellent portions - wonderful atmosphere

Food, service, atmosphere was good BUT .....A 10% service charge was added to my bill without notifying me! I didn't check until I got home. Very cheeky and a bit dishonest hence the 3* rating as a matter of principle.

Quality food and amazing service.

Came today for the first time and was very pleased with the delicious food and wonderful friendly service. Will definitely be back.

Halal food Excellent service Highly recommended taste

The Iranian food is very tasty. We tried the Iranian cuisine for the first time. The chef of this restaurant deserves all the praise. Very helpful and friendly staff. We will definitely come back here.

Both me my wife and son went to this restaurant for lunch today. Small cosy atmosphere with nice quiet music playing. We had Baba gounoosh and bread with very fresh tasty olives for starters. Main course was the tastiest I’ve tasted in ages. The food was flavoursome but not overpowering with spices etc. great food, service and price for the quality of ingredients and food. Would highly recommended. I said to my wife it was like having home cooked food from mum when you was a kid.

Lovely food and brilliant service!
