The lamb stew and chicken breast with rice were so tender and tasty!! We ordered a side of fresh warm bread which complimented the food perfectly!! The food was reasonably priced at about £8 a main. Negatives: didn't give us the grilled tomato which is supposed to come with our food and after we finished our food they didn't come and ask if we needed or wanted anything else. I would recommend this place for dates, or family meals. It was one of the best persian restaurants I've ever eaten at when it comes to the food. The ambience is nice, and the place was clean, modern, with a touch of the middle east with its lamps and mirrors. Unfortunately they dont serve alcohol, so if you want a drink you wont be having any during your meal at this place.

Starter had a decent Kashk bademjoon, with a well cooked ghormeh sabzi although a somewhat undercooked tahdigh. Mastmoosir was ok. We got the mixed kebab grill plate for 4, which was all well-cooked, tender and for each of the rice dishes the waitress creatively suggested 3 rice variations and a Shirazi salad - all of which were delicious. The portion sizes were huge. For desert the saffron ice cream and faloodeh were delicate and subtly flavored. Overall, fairly priced, excellent food.

I first heard about the Persian Palace over three years ago when I met Allen D (fellow reviewer) at…read morea Yelp event in Soho. Back then he told me about this Persian restaurant in Ealing and I promised I would check it out eventually. Forward several years - I still haven't kept my promise - I receive the following Yelp compliment from Allen D: "Happy New Year Mr Uli. You know every time I end up in Persian Palace I wonder if you've managed to try Persian yet!" Seriously, how can I not but strap on my boots and venture out to Ealing after receiving such a note! I arrived at Persian Palace on a Sunday evening around 7pm and I was greeted by a line of about 15 people. Great...maybe I should've read the reviews forewarning me about this. But I'm in good spirits, have a book on me and am starving...so I queue up in very English fashion. The line moves quite quickly and after about 20-25 minutes waiting I am being offered a table. Once seated I whip out my Yelp App with the intention of studying the other people's reviews for food recommendations. But the nice waitress disapproves of this behaviour. When she sees me studying my phone, she says something like this: "No need to google the best dishes, that's what I am here for!" I loved her for this frankness and right away switched off my phone and waited for her input. I ended up ordering the following starter and main course with her: Starter: Kashk-E-Badenjan (sauteed aubergine, walnuts, garlic, whey and mint) with bread Main: Momtaz (one skewer of marinated chicken fillet and one skewer of mince lamb kabab served with rice, grilled tomato) Drink: Doogh (yogurt-based beverage seasoned with mint; similar to the Turkish Ayran) All of the above items were plentiful and delicious and I was happy as a puppy! And even though I was quite satiated after these two rather big portions, I still remembered a dessert when I had first read Allen's review: Paloodeh (or has he spelt it: Faloodeh). Paloodeh is a Persian sorbet threaded with rice noodles and flavoured with rose water. It's served along with a fresh slice of lemon, which you're supposed to squeeze over the sorbet. I have to say this was the highlight of my dinner. The unusual combination of sorbet and vermicelli noodles was exotic and absolutely delicious. I loved it! Some last tips: * I suggest coming here as a group - do make a reservation though! * If you live nearby, you can skip the line and order take away (online ordering is possible) Thanks, Allen D, for making me come here!

It's a fairly small place (unless there was more seating upstairs) and so the acoustics can be quite loud. When we got there, there were 3 American college girls. They were loud as hell and extremely annoying. I felt a bit embarrassed since I'm from the states and here for some work. Once they left, things got a lot better. Our waitress started off a bit cold but soon warmed up and was great the remainder of our time there. As a starter, I ordered the Dolmeh which were vine leaves stuffed with rice and herbs. The rice was cooked well and the herbs were perfect. My main course was Kabab Koobideh. It was 2 minced lamb kababs with steamed rice and a grilled tomato. It was delicious but watch out for the after taste you'll have the remainder of the day. I thought this place was pretty great, but again, I've never had Persian. Therefore, I have nothing to compare this place to. I would recommend giving this place a try though.
