I always come here almost everyday and the best part is, the food is halal. The service was also great. The person in the front is very gentle and kind when your taking your order. They don't rush you but instead make you feel more welcome than ever. And I also cant forget about the ambiance. The place itself is so peaceful and has a great personal touch added to it. It would be great if anyone would be able to add a five-star review to it please. I recommend this place and I definitely will be returning!!!

Definitely a letdown. This place now operates under the name Lebanese Kitchen. It's essentially a…read morefast food kebab and shawarma place. We had much better food just across the street at Mosaic, a Morrocccan restaurant, with much better service, more generous helpings and a far more personal touch. The meat here was okay but nothing special. The chips served under my shawarma seemed to have been made from reconstituted potatoes rather than the "real thing". Salad was fresh but very boring. Have had better food of the same type in Central London for less.

We went on a Thursday night, and even though it was packed, it all made sense once the food arrived. The service was great, and the atmosphere was vibrant, but the food is what truly steals the show. Seriously, it's a must-visit for a true taste of Persia.

I was expecting like a Persian kitchen inside a pub or something but it was actually a quite fancy cloth napkin type of place. They have like a 10 page menu but they have pictures which is helpful. We wanted to try something other than kebabs & shawarma so we went w/ a plate of lamb neck, brains and some other meats. They should rename it the Dog Food plate, it was essentially just boiled without seemingly any seasoning to make it not taste like scrap meat. It was served w/ some pita, raw spicy chilies and raw red onion slices but no rice. We had to order an expensive side of huge rice. The pita was a bit too hard and crispy. It was also served w/ a bowl of bone broth on the side for either dipping or sipping I guess. I would've enjoyed it more if it was priced much cheaper as it is the shit that most restaurants just throw away anyway lol. But if I lived nearby I saw some of their seafood/fish dishes I'd be interested to try.

There is a 5.50 meal deal for lunch which includes a wrap, salad and drink but my suggestion would to spend a quid extra and go for the salad mix. I've tried a few different gourmet salads (think Ottalenghi) but the value you get here for the price and deliciousness far surpasses a lot of other food choices, especially in the area. The staff, as mentioned in the other reviews, is very friendly and add to the ease and delight of the experience!

So we walked from the hotel expecting to do a ToGo order. We were immediately greeted by a very cheerful and polite gentleman who welcomed us in, accompanied by the warm clay bread oven that sits by the front door. We decided to stay. The ambiance was amazing - it was like stepping into another world. Finally the food. Mind you I was on the hunt for a £5-£6 kebab that I could take to the hotel for a late night "snack". Not an £11 kebab. But, we weren't heading back we were sitting in. So we ordered the minced lamb kebab with hummus and it was worth EVERY bit! Delicious! I highly recommend Faanoos!

I seem to have developed an unhealthy obsession with Persian food!…read more We decided to try this place after reading about it in Time Out, and it didn't disappoint. If you're standing in front of Faanoos then you have a choice of two other Persian restaurants within walking distance: There's Chella down the road (near the GBK end of Chiswick), which has a more Western atmosphere, and service, and excellent food. Then there's Rice, which is literally across the road from Faanoos. Even though the service is very good at Rice, I prefer the food at Chela and Faanoos. Things that are most popular at Persian restaurants are the Makhsoos, and the Chicken grill. All starters are worth a try. If you're not a grill fan then there are other dishes you can choose from. If you're walking past between 12-6pm then you can stop and have their Chicken or Lamb sandwich for £3.80, wrapped in their freshly made bread. And no, I don't work for them!! If the weather's good then I usually sit outside and have a Persian tea, or a Persian ice cream while I'm waiting for my sandwich! Enjoy!
