Sadaf Restaurant (Garden) in Kensington and Chelsea - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Our favourite Persian. Most importantly great team and super kind staff. You might like to know the portions are very generous too.

A big thank you to Sadaf Restaurant, Amazing service & outstanding food, "Strongly recommend" 👌 one of my favourite spot.

Top Persian restaurant in Kensington. Good food, great portions. Value for money. A must go to for anyone who wants a warm comfort Persian meal 👌🏾👌🏾 they could have a milder spicy sauce like tabasco instead of their deadly chilli sauce. All in all 8.5/10.

The food is good, but the staff's handling of orders and presentation is not good

We ordered kebab and Mirzaghasemi We didn't like kebab 'but Mirzaghasemi was amazing.' Fresh bread was amazing as well ' they had lovely and friendly staff .

Fantastic food great service, highly 👌 recommended

The food is amazing, fresh juice drinks are amazing. One of the staff Muhammad from Turkey surprised us with a compliment dessert attached in the photo.

Delicious traditional Persian food, good service and friendly staff and atmosphere.

Great Persian food, would highly suggest you book a table in advance as it does get very busy and wait times can be long

Food was good but no sauces available which was a shame. The chicken was quite dry

My must-go Resturant every time I visit or leave London. The food is superb, the location is great, and the staff are so welcoming. Sometimes you have to wait for at least 30 mins before you are seated, even if you reserve. This is the only issue. Otherwise, one of the best Persian cuisine in London.

Dealing, quality, cheerfulness, and abundant quantity And the food is nothing short of it, in all honesty

Actually this Persian restaurant is waaay better than all the other ones in London where they have more hype over! Food was just amazing !

Excellent... atmosphere, service & food. Wonderful place. Highly recommended.

A luxurious Iranian restaurant with unique taste, service and atmosphere. This is the first time I have visited and it will not be the last time.

Delicious Iranian restaurant Great service, all the staff are friendly, kind and helpful The prices are reasonable, but the dishes are very large, enough for two to three people 👍🏻 I will repeat the experience, of course

Nice iranian food and cozy ambience

Staff are not friendly, really slow service. Ended up having to walk to the till to pay. The food is average

Loved the food here! We ordered Chicken Kebab which was perfectly grilled and flavored, as well as Tahdig Platter that was crispy and delicious, just like homemade!

An excellent restaurant and the food is delicious, even there is a lot of everything in one dish. Every year I come to London, I must visit them, so thank you. For all its employees

The food is amazing, the staff is great. I recommend it wholeheartedly. Will visit again, on my next London trip

It was my first time here, really enjoyed the atmosphere, service and the food, the staff are so friendly, caring, definitely will be coming back

We ordered lentil soup, okra with meat with rice, bread, shish tawook, and meat awsal with rice. All dishes were delicious 👍 Excellent service and good interview from the restaurant owner, Mr. Hamid 🙏

My goto Iranian place in central london

We ordered 3 different 🇮🇷 meals honestly all of them was excellent if you’re looking for Persian food this is one of the best in London

Nice restaurant, clean food and good behavior

Good food, freshly cooked, good quantity and reasonable price! Loved it ! Try minced chicken skewers and chicken biryani and don't forget to ask them to make extra extra spicy !!

Delicious food and friendly environment

One of the best restaurants in London .. great customer service great food thank you for having us

The best Iranian restaurant in the center of London with very delicious food ; cheap and fresh. The customer service was very nice and friendly 😁 If you want enjoy the time,go to sadaf restaurant!

Amazing restaurant with delicious food and fresh bread and a nice staff

Lovely food and ambience. Best Kebab in London. Kids loved it too. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Always a delight to eat here!!!

This wonderful Persian restaurant serves delicious Iranian food in the heart of Kensington. The portions are generous, delicious and the menu extensive pack with delicious varieties that leave you wanting for more. The servers were extremely helpful and attended to the guests with a smile even though the restaurant was packed!

Not a pleasant customer service but the food was good. I’d say there has to be an improvement in the staff work ethic and their attitude towards the customers.

Great food. Friendly staff. Seating not great , could be better

Lovely relaxed meal with friends at this local Persian eatery. Great food and attentive service. We all left with a smile, what more can you want!

Excellent food, attentive and friendly service and a great atmosphere 😋 the only complaint was that the portion size was too big 😂😂😮‍💨😮‍💨

I ordered Fesenjoun and Tahdig with Ghorme-sabzi… Very delicious 🤤 👌

People's cultures must be respected

Been here twice now and definitely will not be the last time. The food is so fresh and delicious. It’s hard getting Persian food right in London and they truly bring the authenticity to their dishes. I had the kebab kubideh, carrot juice and saffron icecream. Wish I took a picture to show. You will Definitely will not regret coming here. Honesty one of the best. Staff members are friendly and welcoming!

The mains portions are enormous. Extremely tasty and a big variety of choices.

This restaurant use to be great. i am not sure of they switched owners but it has gone down hill from food to service. Very rude attitude from the manager he doesn’t respect customers.

Excellent service with great portions! Would definitely recommend this place

I’ve eaten here so many times because I love the food, the choice of food and the friendly service. Tonight it was as good as ever - the food here works for every season and is so delicious. I love you guys! Thank you and see you soon.

Rude staff. Have to ask 10 times to get what is needed eg food/bill. Manager argued with me and told me that they aren’t in need of my business (been going here for years) after telling him about the level of service and my complaints against the service charge. Have started eating at the other branch which is far better in service.

We really enjoy the food.. great place great service we love lamb shank … great stuff thank you for having us

Lovely Persian food , best service

Good service, best kebab in london, must visit

Good straightforward food at decent prices. We spent £24 each for four people and had more food than we could eat. Actually a biryani or a lamb shank for example all come with a big serving of rice, each dish is enough for two people if you wanted. Price included soft drinks and water all round. Very good value and good staff and atmosphere. Above all good food.

A very good experience, the food and the portion was good, the staff were so friendly and welcoming even though we went late and they were closing, they welcomed us in and waited for us to finish our food to close. The prices are great too. We went there twice and will definitely go back again. A special thanks to Ali.

Very delicious food and excellent price, portion and service (Ali was so sweet and helpful), we really enjoyed The food is very delicious, and the people who work, especially Ali, are very nice and have good treatment. The price and quantity of food are excellent. I advise you to try it.

We asked the staff to pack our food twice, unfortunately they came too late and put the dishes on the table and told us to pack, while there were only two other customers besides us and it was very quiet. Give it to me because this work is very cheap and not at the level of a professional or even average business. I have been to many restaurants in Turkey, Iran and England, and this was the first time I encountered such a reaction.

Great food, feels lightweight after eating. Kind and welcoming staff I’m a babyyyyyy

Great hospitality, great food and good amounts!👌🏻

I expected a better quality of food .a normal iranian restauran in heart of kensington

The service was amazing and the food was the best I ever had.

A terrible experience after eating in your restaurant.. from the bad taste of the food and heartache afterwards

Delicious food and friendly staff. Was a little cold inside which was uncomfortable.

Delicious selection of Persian food . Highly recommend

Amazing atmosphere, lovely staff, delicious food

Amazing food, good service,Very friendly staff. Definitely best kebab in london!! Also we all loved the mix starter.

best irani food in london we ordered the chelo kebda and qima everythibg was fantastic even the zaffron and tea imported from iran real Authntic taste

The food was good, very large portions. Ok wine list. Staff professional and friendly. Local feel. Would recommend.

Best Persian Restaurant highly recommended for people

Used to be really nice, not sure what happen that day, maybe the staff had a bad day, they were so rude, the food was horrible, the kobedah was under cooked and test weird, the lamb smelled really bad, like really old. Its a shame as we used to go there always but after last experience never again.

The best Persian in London, and also affordable considering the great location. Definitely recommend!

Amazing food and service. Went back another time to have their mince lamb kebabs. Would highly recommend this place. Also try their mint tea. It’s delicious!!

Food is how it should be , superb Persian restaurant from starters to the mains all excellent. Main meal arrived just shortly after the starter (5 minutes later) , my suggestion is you need time to enjoy your starters and not to rush or mix with the mains. Service is usually very good.

A good feast with insanely large portions. The main dishes were good, though I was surprised by the pile of fries on top of the stew, as this is curiously non-Persian! I felt bad wasting food - I'm a big eater but I couldn't even finish half, as there was so much on the plate (one starter, one main, one bread). Bring a hungry friend if you come...

It was a very pleasant and satisfying restaurant experience and I recommend it to others if you are looking for a very delicious Iranian food in a very friendly atmosphere at a reasonable price. At the end of a memorable day of walking and shopping in the beautiful street of Kensington, the location of Sadaf restaurant can be one of your pleasant and reasonable choices.

Best Iranian restaurant in high street Kensington highly recommend,,🙏

It’s good Restrant in best location I hade Persian food it was delicious, they have got good staff and friendly 🙏

It was all worth it and thoroughly recommended

Best Iranian in town by far! I come weekly 3 timea and never ever dissapoint. Freshest ingredients, best local dishes and by far the best staff in town🙏🏻

Very nice food fantastic customer service

Delicious food and great service consistently!

Great food, cozy ambiance, and attentive service. The menu offers variety of delicious options! Wonderful spot for a delightful experience.

Very nice people with yummy foods

Amazing Persian food, service was great and very quick as 9 of us went for a dinner after a long day shopping and everybody was satisfied with food specially the Koobideh Kebab which is the best in London, very friendly staff and delicious food, we will go back soon.

I heard a lot about the restaurant, but found it to be average. Maybe I visited it late in the evening.

We had an incredible Iftar experience at Sadaf! The service was not only quick but friendly. The highlight of our meal was the Ghormeh Sabzi, which was absolutely stunning - recommend. They are quite generous with their rice portions (as most Persian spots are), so consider ordering some of the grills or stews on their own. Definitely a top spot for authentic Persian cuisine.

The food is HALAL and really tasty, the staff however is not very hostile hospitable , that makes you feel that you are a burden , and when they serve the food they almost slammed it to the table , after we were done we asked for take away , they brought the filled dish without a bag !!! , we asked for a bag the guy just came and threw it on the table and left !!!!

The staff are amazing here. Very kind and comfortable environment. They gave me a lollypop.

I love coming to sadaf they make me feel like I’m part of the family and the food is always great.

Good food .. professional staff service. Nice tea at the end to finish the meal.

Beautiful restaurant in a great location! A whole 10/10, the food tasted homemade in the best way possible, and the staff were nice. Will definitely be coming back again <3

The rice dishes’ portion are large enough for sharing. The food, especially the meat is fresh and tender.

Delicious and large portions of food. The staffs are very friendly. Highly recommended.

What can I say 🤷 this place is full of miserable staff lol they wouldn't even smile when they interact with you. I went with my Irish friend and it was her first experience for iranian food and these people scared her with they nasty attitude and bad bad food. They charged £8.99 for sabzi plate when it should've been free lol. P.S they should learn how to make a grill fish 🐟 u can't put saffron on everything and expect to have a good taste 🤢🤮 and when I called the manager of the restaurant and told him that fish smell bad he took our fish away and threw the dishes in the kitchen and everyone heard it and they gave us the bill straightaway really bad and rude customer service they really need to work on their attitude and food quality.

Got a 7 pieces of junk mail for this restaurant despite clear signage for NO JUNK.

The food was very delicious, the dishes came full 😍 and the service was great 👍🏻 I really enjoyed it.

Amazing food and lovely service 👍

My favourite restaurant. Food is incredible and consistently great, and no matter what you order, it’s going to be delicious. I travel from Kent just to eat here, Don’t hesitate to book a table here!

April the Ben five star for food if you used Iranian good quality rice and put more broad beans and dill in your baghali polo

Amazing food! Strongly recommended!

One of the best Persian restaurants in London , highly recommended
