Behesht Persian Cuisine

7 out of 10 stars

My friend and I travelled 50 miles to come here upon hearing how great the place was. Although not a disappointment as such, I was somewhat underwhelmed. The décor of the place is amazing and typically Persian. We had no trouble with the waiters, unlike several people here. In fact, we found the waiters to be very accommodating and friendly. The food did take quite a while to arrive, however we were very impressed with the huge portion sizes. Food standard was as you’d expect for the prices they charged – cooked well and tasty, but nothing over the top. If you want elite Persian food, this is not the place for you; however, if you want food that hits the spot for a good price, Behesht is thoroughly recommended. If you want a better experience, I’d recommend Sarab restaurant in Surbiton. It’s a little more expensive but the food is absolutely delicious, the ambience is cosy and very welcoming, and the service is fantastic. Faultless.
