    Elevated Persian classics made with care. Plumb chicken and Lori Kabab were next level. Order as much as many dishes as you can, but leave room for sorbet and ice cream.

    MAybe the best Persian food in nyc? Feta toast app, lamb shank and the cardamom ice cream sandwich were excellent. Not so big on the meatball app

    Everything was great, the best was the duck fezenjan and the steak kebab. This is a modern Persian place, not traditional. The tadig and the polo shirin were also very good. Highly recommend Sofreh.

    The food was of course delicious, but what really caught me is the friendliness and accommodating nature of all the staff. We had a wonderful time!

    Super friendly, great environment and the food is to die for. Get the lamb shank for sure. And the traditional persian ice cream!

    The food was just amazing. We loved the meatballs , the Lori Kababs, and Spicy fish. The Persian ice cream is to die for.

    The best Persian restaurant in the U.S.! Try their Kabob Torsh. It’s a steak with a sour taste. Ask chef Nassim about the specials of the day. She is usually in the restaurant greeting tables.

    The Food! Service needs real work. Price point is high especially as the main dishes 'require" sides which are $5-8. Chic, minimalist space and loud. Let's see how the locals respond, much potential.

    Best steak I've ever had. The flavors explode from each dish, and the service is impeccable. 👍🏻👍🏻

    Tried the lamb shank and cherries and beef for starter. For the price point, i thought the food was good, though not memorable.

    Not all authentic but a lot of solid options. Eggplant appetizer wins by far.

    Horrible. I was charged $60 for not showing up to eat outside during during hurricane Henri (my child is unvaccinated and we don't eat inside). They don't answer a phone and are beyond rude.
