The Bottom Line

Farsi Restaurant is a Persian dining spot in Al Muteena where the clearest draw is its Iranian grill cooking. Mixed-grill platters, juicy kebabs, saffron rice and traditional rice dishes such as Zereshk polo chicken appear repeatedly in the reviews. It is a useful choice when you want a filling shared meal rather than a light bite.

The portions can be surprisingly large: one diner said a platter for two was enough for four. Several reviews also mention complimentary soup, salad, fresh herbs and hot sangak bread, while barley soup, Iranian tea and saffron ice cream give you easy ways to round out the meal. Indoor and outdoor seating, separate shisha areas and reported live Persian music on Sundays add options for a longer evening.

Service is usually described as warm, attentive and helpful with recommendations, and a vegetarian diner appreciated the care given to her preferences. There are some cautions. One recent review reported dirty restrooms, slow responses and tough, bland meat, while another found the food inconsistent between barg kebab and kobideh.

A birthday party also made one dinner noisy. If value matters, ask about the reported Aed 45 business lunch and check what complimentary sides accompany your order.
