I was here in Paris for a week and I had ten to twelve restaurants experiences including one Michelin and wanted to top it with Persian Food What I had was qubida but unfortunately it was Europeanized version of real quibide Meaning no spice and just a skewered meat So except the music I can not say I had the Persian experience to top my gastronomical trip Unfortunately this has been my standard problem outside Iran So it is not really specific to this place In boston one chef said I hear you but in the west I can not sell the same taste as Iran and I do not know if he was right

Delicious and authentic. Our server kindly walked us through any menu questions and provided great service as well. Wish I could get chicken like this back home.

Food tastes good but is a bit overpriced and presentation is relatively simple. Also, we asked for a salad as an appetizer and got and eggplant mix instead (very tasty though)

This restaurant was a 2-min walk from the hotel on a very cold winter’s day. Persian food lovers, we enjoyed the meal. The place, the service and food was all good. The Koubideh was especially yummy and tender. It was a good experience!

After a month of traveling I was really craving a meal that would remind me of home and Shabestan did not disappoint. Good food, kind and attentive service, and they speak Farsi and a English - which made communicating easy for me as my French is tres mal. I ordered the Mast-O-Mousir, Royal Kabob with Chengeh and Barg, and topped things off with a classic Chai Nabat. Solid 8/10.

Tbh this place was under my expectation, over all the staff was welcoming, but we found out the fork was dirty and there were several mosquitos around while eating. Plus we ordered Finsinjan the traditional Iranian meal it was not delicious. I have tried the same meal several times but this time it was under my expectations.

This was a lovely find for us with exceptional food and attentive service. Noteworthy is the saffron ice cream. Please try this pretty little place if you’ve wanted to try Iranian/Persian food. You won’t be disappointed, and you’ll be telling all your friends about your “new discovery”.

Really Great Meal. The Joojeh was awesome and the Koobideh was great. The Barg was nice too. We got the platter for 2. We also ordered Kashke Bademjan and it was nice and came with BarBari Bread and the coke here to drink is served out of a bottle. The restaurant is right by Champs Elysee and is very nice inside and ideal for special nights out.

A great restaurant in a beautiful road. The food was fantastic and reminded us of some Greek dishes that we are used to. The prices compared to other restaurants are lower, and the service is excellent. Will definitely visit again when back in Paris!
