    Golab refresher

    I really enjoyed this restaurant. It was so cozy and quaint. The food felt homemade. The service was pretty good. They gave us free dessert. I loved everything we ate. Flavors were so unique. I would definitely go back try the rest of the menu items.

    Overall, it's a great place and the food was excellent. As others have mentioned, the menu has limited options. The only thing I wish they offered is a sampler plate of the appetizers and main courses, so you could try a little bit of everything. The prices are reasonable and the service was great.

    Quite a disappointment. We all know that there's slim pickings for Persian food in NYC, so any new opening is welcomed. But despite the inviting atmosphere and actually quite vegetarian-friendly menu, pretty much everything we ordered was mediocre. They offer vegetarian versions of most of the main dishes, so we tried the fesenjoon and ghormeh sabzi. They used portobello mushroom in lieu of meat - but both dishes were rather bland. The saffron rice served alongside lacked any adornments, maybe some sour cherries or barberries would have helped. The price point was quite steep considering what these dishes were. Service also felt a bit rushed and not particularly friendly.

    Yes, Virginia, there IS a Santa Claus...AND a cozy hole-in-the-wall restaurant in soulless Midtown! Seriously, though, I bet when Santa wants to feast on spiced meat, he comes to this gorgeous, dimly lit spot filled with charming decorations, paintings, scrolls, and exposed brick. I bet he enjoys the enormous portions of rice and veggies that accompany the perfectly grilled Koobideh and savory Gheymeh. He probably skips the ice-cold Kuku Sabzi, one of the few disappointing items on the menu. But he makes up for it with the lovely Persian Tea Service, a warm counterpart to the icy saltiness of the homemade Doogh. Especially when said tea service comes with tasty cardamom custard that makes you want to cry with happiness. Go. Go now, before the critics and influencers "discover" this place.

    I've been wanting to try @nasrinskitchenresturant for a while since I wasn't very satisfied with the other Persian food I've had in the city so far. The waiters were really nice and the environment is well decorated. Their food has more of a homemade authentic flavor to it, and I'd want to try other dishes in the future!

    Made reservations and that was great because this got busy quite quickly on a rainy Wednesday. My party chose to do the bed seating and I think we were the only ones. They have a few bed seating set ups and lots of regular tables. For food, we had the following: Kashk Bademjoon: Persian Eggplant Dip, enriched with walnuts, crispy onions, and mint oil, served with nigella-sesame bread. Gheymeh Nesar: chunks of lamb with sour orange peel, barberries, saffron, and tomato paste, seasoned with spices. This dish is served with rice adorned with Persian pistachios, almonds, and onions. Chelo Kabab Koobideh: Ground lamb and beef kebab with saffron and spices, served with basmati rice, grilled tomato, onion, lime, fresh basil, and butter. Persian Tea Service: Iranian black tea with Chef Nasrin's signature sweets, cardamom sugar cubes, saffron rock candy, and rose petals, freshly brewed daily. It's supposed to serve 4 people. The food was delicious and they served generous portions. I think it's more of a family style restaurant. We had some familiar things and some completely new experiences. The rice dish, gyemeh nesar, was a brand new experience. The orange peels, sour berries with rice and lamb was new and delicious. Very happy with this experience and will be back to explore the menu!

    The Kashk Bademjoon was really the highlight of the meal for me, it was super flavorful and just.a really solid eggplant dish. I wish they had given us at least one piece of bread per person for it though. It was just two of us and splitting one piece of bread was less than ideal, although the bread is really good. The Chelo Khoresh-e Ghormeh Sabzi was very tender and well cooked, I would recommend if you like lime zest. Fesenjoon was also very tender but you'll only like it if you like very sweet meat dishes.

    Nasrin's Kitchen is a bit difficult to spot from the street if you're not from the area - but once you're inside, you're greeted by warm ambient lighting, and a mix of traditional and modern Persian music. Service is good, but the restaurant seems a bit understaffed. We arrived at 5:30, about 30 minutes after the restaurant opened and the tables quickly flooded with people (it's clearly popular!); the servers seemed a bit overwhelmed. Food is fresh, delicious and authentic. Fesenjoon is a must try if you're looking for a savory, warm meal.

The staff is so friendly and so many persians were there, I was quite pleased at that! You don't typically walk into any restaurant in Chelsea/Flatiron and find that half the people or more in the restaurant are of that culture (unless we're talking cheeseburgers or wings here). Their wine list is extensive and interesting. They don't have everything on it, but that's okay, we had a fun Artadi wine from Spain - a winery we've been to, which was what I was going for on the list. The cocktails didn't speak to me, but that's okay, persian cocktails can be great or confused. These seemed more on the confused side. The fresh herbs were served as an app, and they were great. Just like my grandma always has on her table. The feta stuffed dates were fantastic, again a nice treat that reminds me of something my grandma might serve me. The labne was stellar with pita bread, and the kashk e bademjan was really good, though not like any I've made before. But that dish can be wildly different anywhere you go. I asked for Tahdig and got some, but I got ghormeh sabzi dolloped on my tahdig which was interesting - like ghormeh sabzi nachos. I do wish the ghormeh sabzi was better. However I may just be extremely partial to our own ghormeh sabzi at home. The cornish game hen kabas were out of this world! sooooo juicy! Definitely worth a visit - you'll enjoy it - but I don't know if tahdig and ghormeh sabzi here are the way to go.

After making the reservation, I peruse the menu picking the daisy deciding what to eat. On this visit, Chef Ayesha was here and I had the good fortune to speak to her and shake her hand. What a charming lady! I feasted on Labneh topped with strawberries, pickled fennel and herbs. Frena mopped up each morsel. Shukette Cherries was new on the menu and had oomph with a tangy marinade of lime, cilantro and serrano chili. The Pea Party 4.0 of snap peas, asparagus, pea shoots and snow peas was a bright chlorophyll color and tasted refreshing. Egyptian spiced chicken wings were simply mouthwatering. Dipped into a ramekin of white harissa flecked with sumac, this sauce is divine. I had a non alcoholic summer drink that Joseph had recommended. At Shukette, the server will tell you if one has ordered too much which Vladimir did. It's easy to get full quickly which happened to me and I could only manage three wings. When Vladimir came to ask if I wanted dessert, I requested a wheelbarrow instead. He giggled. My desire is to eat at Shukette once a month and so far it has been a dream come true. Highly recommended.

It was a little hard to hear and converse at times as it gets crowded, but the food was delicious and there are really unique items on the menu. Food: The duck shawarma was one of our favorites!

We were lead upstairs to a table. There were 7 of us The seating was cozy but not cramped. We started with 7 family style small dishes: Hummus with Falafel Pops (chickpea purée, tahini, falafel, olive oil), Spring Burrata (roasted cherry tomatoes, toast, basil oil), Hamachi Crudo (passionfruit vinaigrette, citrus zest, cucumber, mint, sesame tuile), Scallops (carrot puree, serrano pepper, brown butter sauce), Tenderloin Skewer (zaatar chimichurri, fresh herb salad), and Shiitake Stuffed Grape Leaves (tomato coulis, yogurt foam, herbs). Everything was delicious. The hummus was well seasoned the falafel had a nice crunch. It went well with the warm puffy gyro bread that came to the table. The burrata was wasm and creamy. I love the vinaigrette on the fish. I ended up eating most of it. The scallops were the sweetest, most tender ones I have ever had. The tenderloin skewers were tender and well seasoned. I liked the grape leaves but the rice consistency was very soft almost mushy and you can barely tell there were mushrooms. There was barely any mushrooms flavor. Next we all chose an entree. I got the duck breast, my husband and daughter each had the beef tenderloin. The duck breast was smaller than i expected. The skin was nicely seared and very crispy but boy did it give my jaw a workout. It was done medium rare. It was juicy but tough. The small beef tenderloin was tender and smoky. The waiter poured the sauce over the tenderloin for added flavor. Finally dessert was a fruit plate with ice cream and pudding. The fruit was fresh and the flavors of the ice cream and pudding unique. It was a nice end to a good brunch. The price was a little expensive at $85 a person.
