A restaurant that charges TOURIST TAX! After reading the great reviews, we were looking forward to our meal at Sabor Persa. As most people mentioned, the food was good and the service was better than expected. However, we were totally surprised when our bill came, and we saw we were charged 2.50 Euros per person marked as VARIOS. The host explained that this was a "tourist tax" charged only to non Spanish people. We hesitantly paid the check, but when we returned to the hotel, we asked the receptionist who informed us that this charge was not customary. It's angering that a restaurant would brazenly rip off a customer and put a damper on otherwise a pleasant meal. read more

Excellent food and great service. I've been in many Persian restaurants but this place was by far the best and most authentic Persian food. The starter matched my expectations and some. I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Barcelona. read more

Sabor Persa - Mirzaghasemi - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Barcelona, B

I grew up eating Persian food most of my life in Los Angeles. Every time I go home to visit, before I even go to my hotel, the first thing I do is go get Persian food. Sabor Persa is without a doubt one of the best Persian restaurants I have ever been. That's we weren't twice during our week vacation (maybe even a third). The food was done to perfection. You can taste the love and detail in every dish. Topped with the best service, this place is a must. You'll see why every review is a solid 5 stars. Thank you Sabor Persa for a wonderful experience. read more

This is the best Persian food I've ever had. The food was delicious, well presented and the quantity was great too. The meat melts in your mouth, everything was cooked perfectly. The staff are very friendly and helpful! I was full but went on to finish my plate because I could not let the food go to waste. The only thing I'm unhappy about is leaving Barcelona and not being able to eat here again!! read more

It's quite hard to find a bad Persian restaurant--anywhere you go. I think Persians take their business very seriously, and the take food making religiously. It's rare you find, for example, an undercooked part of meat of chicken on your dish. Everything looks, tastes and smells perfect. This restaurant is no exception. We stayed 9 days in Barcelona, with a restaurant planned for each night, no room for repetition, but we had to revisit this one one additional time. The staff is very friendly, all of them. They're very forthcoming with recommendation regarding dishes and advice regarding the quantity ordered (we tend to over do it.) In terms of food, you can't go wrong. My personal favorites include, but are not limited to, legally-speaking: kashkeh bademjan, masto khiar, kobideh, joojeh, bamya stew, sabzi stew, and lamb shank. Your have two or three options for rice: white rice, green rice (with peas--my favorite) or saffron rice with zarasht (dried berries). Drink: you have to try "douq", the fuzzy buttermilk with mint. It's a must. We didn't try any dessert because we were too full, as usual. The price is average for such a high-quality food in such a town. Overall, this could be my first stop next time I'm in town. read more

When in Barcelona do as the Persians do. We found this amazing Persian restaurant that had incredible food. The service was fantastic and friendly and the food was outstanding. Try the kebab skewers and make sure you get a side of butter with your rice. It just makes it more decadent! I just wish I found this place a couple of days earlier so I can come back here one more time before I head back! Order the chicken, lamb, and the veal kebabs. read more

I hate to have been one of the first to give a lower rating to this restaurant, but I feel that the current rating is a bit overinflated. I've had a good deal of Persian foods in the states (Bay Area) and I would say this restaurant is very average. The skewers were not particularly good, somewhat dry, particular the unmixed meats like lamb and chicken. The Fesenjan was also just okay to me. I liked the lavash very much and the dolme was also good. I also felt the owner was a little pushy about the menu, but otherwise just a solidly okay meal read more

We went to this Persian restaurant with Persian friends. Good food, good service, refined ambience yet relaxed. We had skewered chicken, and beef (minced and filet mignon), lamb and several fresh salads and the crispy rice. Our preferred meat was the chicken thigh - meat so tender and just perfect. Everything else was also great - I am not Persian but I enjoyed the meats and I was with people who know their national food well :). We were 5 people and the bill was 140€. read more

We are traveling from TX and love Persian food (I'm Iranian and my fiancé is Mexican). There are several average Persian restaurants in TX, we recently went to LA in October and tried some too, even Hawaii in September! Hands down, this has been the best Persian restaurant we have experienced! We ordered the kashkeh bademjoon, maasto khiar, tadeeg with ghormeh sabzi (wow!!!), and sultani. We also had some tea with zoolbiya bamieh - so delicious! Not only were the flavors of each on point, the presentation and service were impeccable! Mr. Nasser was so kind and welcoming...even told us to drop by in before we leave for more tea and if we had any questions getting around Barcelona to let him know. Such a nice guy! Highly recommend this restaurant and looking forward to visiting them again! Try it out - you won't be disappointed! read more

Wow- came from USA and been to many European countries, but this is by far one of the BEST Persian restaurants in Europe that we've been to. Perfect portions (you won't feel so full you can't walk) and authentic like it should be. Tasted so good we have no complaints at all. read more

Sabor Persa - Koobideh- Forgot to take a picture halfway through eating - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Barcelona, B

We arrived at Sabor Persa very excited and ready to eat some yummy Persian food. It came highly recommended by a few locals. The decorations were beautiful. The service was wonderful. The food was amazing! We ordered the mast mousir, salad shirazi, kabob koubideh, yuyeh kabob, and some ice cream! Everything was perfect. I would definitely come here again read more

The ambiance and beauty of the place captivates the moment you step through the swinging foyer door into the main dining area. This is followed by impeccably polite service and attention from the staff. This is followed by delicious flavors from an extensive Persian menu. The Persian bread and their version of hummus was a family favorite. We all had skewers of Barg (steak) and Yoyeh (chicken) with various versions of crispy Safron rice (plain, raisin, or orange/carrot/almond) the sylvestri raisin was my favorite. Everyone left happy and in a city of a thousand restaurants, we had to eat here twice on our trip. read more

Good fresh food! Awesome service, let us order even when kitchen was pretty much closed for late afternoon. And still didn't rush us at all. Tried lamb, chicken and kofteh - all was best in Barcelona! read more

Great food and sophisticated place with a Persian vibe in a modern context. We spent a week in Barcelona for a family reunion, and we found this restaurant from local internet search. The owner is polite and friendly while welcoming customers and helpful in explaining menu to non-Iranian guests. The best quality food and Persian brewed-tea made our day. I enjoyed the experience in that little, cozy and excellent restaurant. Try this satisfying Persian restaurant if you get a chance to visit Barcelona. read more

Just arrived in Barcelona a few hours ago and my family was craving Iranian food. The manager let us in right as they were closing! We were blown away by the food here. We are even considering coming back again later this week before we leave. Food is excellent and so tasty! Definitely recommend!! read more

Great food and service, had the Kubeideh and it was cooked to perfection and tasted really good. Definitely recommend this place.

Unfortunately my partner and I both got food poisoning and had to go to the hospital. We had Kubideh and rice. Have in mind that these kebabs are made with gas!!! and not coal as Iranian traditional kebabs are made with coal. I really dont recommend this restaurant. Desafortunadamente, yo y mi compañero tuvimos intoxicación de comida y tuvimos que ir al hospital. Teníamos Kubideh y arroz. Kebab tradicional Irani esta hecho con el Carbón de leña pero aqui lo preparan con gas!!! Realmente no recomiendo este restaurante. . . . . . ! read more

Nicely decorated, very clean restaurant. The food is good and the prices are fair. After our lunch, the owner came to our table and talked to us. He himself regularly goes around to find high quality ingredients for his restaurant. I am visiting Barcelona, coming from California. I think, I will come back to this restaurant again if I am back here again. read more
