Having found out about…read morethe place through word of mouth, the proprietor was immediately aware of this on my first visit. "We quietly opened it 5 months ago and have been slowly building the business". They're currently only open 8-10pm due to Ramadan commitments. Something which must be costing them given the expensive traditional tandoori ovens there got installed. What it does show is that they're passionate about the authenticity of the food and see this place as a long term investment. They're here to stay folks! The chicken and lamb Karahi is cooked on the tandoor "Pathan style" with plethora of spices and takes 15 minutes to cook. My first venture was however all about the legendary Chapli kebabs and Peshawari naans! I first tried this huge spice filled meat fest at a wedding in London. They're a delicacy in North Pakistan area of Pakhtun and Waziristan as well as Afghanistan. The richness of flavour absorbed in the meat is incredible and the naan breads served with it are soft, delicious and rather large. I can't wait to return and try the rice dish and update my review! Stockport road is fast becoming better than Wilmslow road for foodies. This hidden treasure deserves a cheeky visit!

They offer some delicious Persian dishes that are rich in flavour but not heavy. There's also the option of rice or half rice and salad to go with your main dish. On my recent visit, I had the chicken kebab with fluffy rice and colourful salad. It also came with some beautifully charred peppers, shallot, mushroom and tomato. Unlike other middle eastern restaurant, they don't serve the usual hummus or babaganoush. Instead, there's a range of yoghurt dips, which I'm not really fond of. Still, we had ordered garlic bread so we tried the Musto Khyar - cucumber, dill and lemon in yoghurt. It was nice enough but you couldn't really taste the lemon or the dill. Next time I will try one of their tapas-like starters! The restaurant had been nicely decorated and I know their doors open in the summer and you can sit outside. The service is good too! If you live near by I'd definitely recommend a visit!

After we left Wine & Wallop, we went into Burton Road looking for some place to eat. On a Friday…read morenight. Without reservation. we felt very, very lucky when we got a table straightaway at the very full looking Pomegranate, which I admit, was not our first choice. We went in, considering none of us had had Persian food before. We ordered this drink called doogh, which was a salted lassi kind of thing with sparkling water and mint, a persian tea and a Bailey's. For food, we skipped the preamble and jumped straight into the main course. we got 2 fesenjoons, a lime and thyme chicken and a grilled vegetables platter. we got this with saffron rice, sprinkled with pomegranate kernels. The rice was very good and fragrant. The doogh was interesting to begin with but as the fizz died out, it kind of fell flat. The biggest surprise of the night for me was the fesenjoon. It had that sweet/sour tamarindy/jaggery combination, similar to the brown chutney one gets with a samosa. It is good in little portions, when eaten with something spicy and rich but on its own, it can be quite overpowering. I am not saying the food was badly prepared, quite the opposite in fact. The chicken was well cooked and succulent, but we didn't expect to be hit on the face with this tamarindy sweetness. Having said that, I wouldn't mind going there again at a time when they're less busy and trying something else. The service was pretty quick, but I would like a little more interaction and input from the staff, which I can't expect on a Friday night. Which is why I'd like to go back when they're less busy. I'd still suggest people go there, get a taste of Pomegranate (no pun intended) and let us know what they think.

I've only been here a couple of times, the first time I ate in and the serving time was very good…read moreas it was quite empty, there was only one other table full there. However this time, I got a takeaway on my way back from the cinema (the savoy, I would 100% recommend) and ordered it before I went to watch the movie and told them to have it ready for 8:30. I was early and ended up getting there at 8:15 so fair enough it shouldn't have to be ready for that time but I ended up getting the food at 8:40 and when I got back home I realised that I hadn't exactly got the food I wanted. They gave me about 5 boxes of rice instead of 2 of chips and 2 of rice. I also ordered the meze which should've been 2 of 3 different things, I ended up getting 2 of 2 different things but I did get a free garlic bread (because the order was over £20). This was a little annoying but the food that I did get was great so I would recommend.

The lamb in Qabili Pilau here was a little over done for my liking and in slices rather than a big piece. I'm not sure which is more traditional but I much prefer the lamb shank style. The starter of mint, parsley, raddish, feta and walnut was quite tasty although a little different to what I'm used to. If your new to this style of food then Ariana is a safe bet but I would reccomend trying elsewhere.

The rustic decor certainly gives you an geographic element from where the recipes hail. I was unsure of what to order, but the waitress took her time in detailing not only how the dish was cooked, but also all the ingredients in it, i could not help thinking she had probably eaten these dishes her whole life, and i feel quite central to my experience.
