Shiraz Persian Cuisine (Oxford)

1. Shiraz gives an excellent impression of (northern) Persian cuisine, everything is prepared with the right balance of spices, time to marinate and cook. Very soft meats and chickens, fully bodied yet very light sauces, tasty rice. Very highly recommended!

2. Fantastic food and service. All the meat in the platter was succulent and flavoursome – something that often goes overlooked. The lamb chops were juicy and tender, the kebabs were soft and delicious, everything was seasoned to perfection. Maybe the lamb shank could’ve done with a tad more, but it wasn’t bad. Overall, highly recommended.

3. The food was amazing, I was deeply impressed by the service. I was served by Samman, shes very attentive. I was feeling cold and she closed the windows, made sure that we had everything we needed. She’s very good at her job. The lamb skewers (I believe it’s number 45 on the menu) were the best I’ve ever had, they were super soft and delicious.

4. Absolutely fantastic food, an incredible place to spend an afternoon. I went twice during my brief stay in Oxford and had sampler platters with mint tea. The whole experience was fantastic, and the food was dynamic and perfectly portioned. Cannot recommend enough!

5. Very good Persian/Iranian dinner with excellent outstanding service. I had the “Chelo Kabab Koobideh” for £14 which was very filling. Parking is quite difficult round there.
