This place has been open for so long.
I've been 3 times in the past 20 years, all trips were consistently good.
The restaurant is very beautiful from inside and out.
It's a large open room, and the neat thing is they serve alcohol (a rarity for Iranian restos).
The Ash soup is a heavenly delight, it's a must
The prices are a bit too high for my taste, but the koobideh and crazy chicken ($16 and $17, are still pretty decently priced. Other items are in the 20-30 range.
You do get soup or salad, as well as tea at the end included with all the dishes.
There is pita bread with onions to open your appetite.
Service is cordial, but nothing exceptional
They do a brisk takeout, the Iranian community lives in the area and they are close to Vendome Metro.
