An excellent Persian restaurant, unfortunately they have taken Salad Olvieh off the menu

Not a fan of cash only places, especially when the nearest cash point is not close by and in a dodgy area where you're followed by crackheads begging for money. Food wise, it was ok, though a bit overpriced for portion size. Defo not your alternative to places like Classic Persian as some have said. The meat was too chewy at times and still had the strong raw meat smell, but was cooked. Food would be nicer if they would give some garlic cream to go with the food.

Food was spot on. Service deserves zero but I still give one. The waitress took our order and then came back 4 times to confirm the order which wasn't big at all. On 4 items orders with 3 drinks. But it took 4 attempts and still had drinks missing .

Zaffran is a unpretentious place that stays popular due to the consistent quality of the food. Their skewer kebabs are excellent with high quality meat/chicken/keema. Well presented and very tasty. Good customer service too. Usually the music is too loud in restaurants, here it was a touch too low. They play some classic Iranian music (old school), put it up a little! 😃

Food was mediocre for this cuisine, plenty of better options out there. Staff were not forthcoming or attentive, dining there seemed to inconvenience them. Although they passed the table several times, not once were we asked how our meal was. Positive point is that the food arrived fairly quickly, so made the visit here thankfully short.

Very good food, fresh and full of taste. Went for a family dine night. For starter we ordered chickrn rolls. mashed aubergine and falafels. Falafels tested really great. I wish there were more. Hubby was very happy with his grilled seabass with salad, both the children ordered grilled fillet of lambs with chips and I went for their highly recommended both chicken and lamb minced grill with chips. For dessert we ordered molten lava cake and choc ice-cream. All were really delicious. Great food and fantastic ambience. We had a lovely time, well spent.

we visited yesterday this restaurant after read but really disappointed they mentioned kabli pilaf recommend but it was just boiled rice on top raisins and carrots, but no taste at all. there was few more tables which I seen people left full plates of food just because of you know. kobedha kebab was ok. I won't recommend to go with family or if you are hungry. but for taste of change you can go when you not hungry

Abhorrent experience, loathsome staff, negative atmosphere. The ambience was likened to that of the Cold War. The waitress, did not get her name, requires further training. I ate in on the 29th of April, evening. Food was dry, no dips with the hallomi. Wrap came dry. So many criticisms but I shan't spend a moment longer associated with this restaurant.

The delivery is always ahead of schedule (on Ubereats). The food arrives at a perfect temperature and fresh with great portion size and tastes exactly as it should be (Persian). Also, the staff are always very polite and respectful when you dine in or pop in to take out in person.

The food was wonderful. The portion sizes were extremely delicious with pricing more than fair! The service was excellent and Hafees was a great host. The restaurant is on the small side with spacing a tad tight, but cosy nonetheless. The decor could be spruced up with some traditional Iranian paraphernalia and adornments. Will be coming again to try their Kabuli Polo!

Nice decor inside. There is around 6 tables available with each enough to seat 4 people. We arrived quite early on and got seated straight away. For staters we ordered the Mirza Ghasemi which is grilled aubergines with a tomato and garlic base served with fresh naan. It was a very decent portion size and will easily serve 3 people. For mains we ordered the Lamb shank along with the lamb kobeda and a portion of chips. The lamb kobeda was very nice, however, it could have been juicer as it was slightly on the dry side. The lamb shank was very flavourful and fall off the bone - served with saffron rice it was enjoyable. The portion sizes are very generous and the lamb shank meal will feed 3 people easily. Overall a very nice quiet intimate restaurant with helpful staff and lovely food. The bill came to just over £30 for 2 people with lots of food left over ( enough to feed another person comfortably)

Nice people good service lad at counter nice and helpful but we go to eat food is the purpose. The main grill Zaffran special says they serve lamb but it is in actual fact fine cut tendered sheep not lamb it is very chewy and hard on the teeth lamb is a lot more soft. Pay attention next time it is not lamb even the koubedah is not lamb it’s sheep mince hence not same taste as Haftsin in Leeds. The rice is not same quality either and the brothers were out of bitter. Very dry tasteless rice without the butter. Chicken cubes were much better in taste than haftsin or classic. Just to mention classic also use sheep only person who sells what he says on the menu is hafstin. Nice fresh baklava they had today. The humous and naan were spot on. But disappointed with sheep skewer and rice.

Apart from this it was easy access for people using wheelchairs and would strongly recommend this place.

Nice little treasure in Bradford. Decor is simple but nice. The service from the waitresses is always 1st class. Food is good. Only slight critiscm is that the garnish on the food is not to my taste such as 3 grilled tomatoes. Whilst eating there in summer it's fine, but during winter food gets cold quickly & it would be great if food was served on hotplates.

Chicken kobeda was nice but the lamb one was tasteless, it lacked spices but I guess that’s what you get at a Persian restaurant. Hummus was too runny. They don’t have any good sauces either- only ketchup, mayo and the standard chilli sauce which everyone does.

We stumbled across this restaurant as the restaurant we had booked in Bradford had given our table to a larger booking and we are now so glad that they did ! It’s a gem of a find. I drive past the restaurant most days and haven’t noticed it as it’s quite a small shopfront.We arrived about 6.30 on a Saturday evening and it was already quite busy. We were seated quickly and found the menu to be varied with lots of lovely dishes to choose from. There were lots of families with children and couples eating and all their meals looked good. We were a couple and chose the same meals of chicken , lamb fillet and minced lamb skewers. All came with rice chips or naan bread and salad. The meal arrived promptly and was a good sized portion. What really stood out to us was how tender and delicious the meat was. It melted in your mouth with subtle spices to complement it along with tasty chargrilled onions and peppers. We will recommend this restaurant to all our friends and family for such a great meal and fabulous service from a Amanda our very friendly and helpful waitress.

If you have never tried Persian food, where have you been?! This delightful, small and intimate restaurant will win you over with deliciously tasty and fragrant food which is spiced to perfection allowing the subtle flavours to shine through. The variations on the humble lamb kebab along with grilled chicken and lamb fillet accompanied by saffron rice and salad make for a real gourmet experience. Make sure you try their hummous and the fabulously tasty Kashke Bademjan (fried spiced aubergines, onions, walnuts, and sauce) with their own nan which is better than anywhere else including the restaurant in London my son goes to. We have enjoyed going to this oasis several times which we always look forward to and are never disappointed. The staff are excellent and never over fussy. Add to all that prices that are extremely reasonable and you have an experience to relish every visit you make.

There was rather a long wait for the meal despite the restaurant not being busy…however the meal was freshly cooked moist and tasty. The sauces are extremely basic ie mayo, tomato and brown sauce with no other options. This is quite a basic eatery the toilet upstairs are rather shabby in need of a makeover. You can bring your own alcohol to this establishment and there is parking available too.

Placed a order threw just eat for 10 chicken wings and chips , when they got to my house they where pink all the way threw as well as bloody in some parts , we wanted to give this takeaway the benefit of the doubt because we understand mistakes happen so we phoned them , the lady on the phone asked for some photos which we sent across! She agreed it does look pink and she was happy to replace them , we said we didn't want to wait 45 minutes and would get something next time. The next evening we phoned the takeaway to redeem our free item only to be told it was only 20% off our total order now. That meal cost me £7 , 20% doesn't even cover the cost of it. If it had not been for me checking your raw chicken i could of possibly got very sick and died! Its also worth noting i left a similar review on just it which has been removed.
