While some find the ambiance a bit muted when quiet, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, making it a recommended spot for a flavorful Persian dining adventure.
"If you’re Persian or looking for a great Persian restaurant experience, this is the BEST place for an authentic, delicious and mouthwatering cuisine! The Koobideh (meat skewer) was packed full of flavour, the Jojeh (chicken skewer) was tender and juicy both had the smokey char-grill flavour that we love. The rice-well let’s just say it was impeccable! I’ve been here a few times over the past couple of years and it has always delivered delicious food in a warm and inviting atmosphere with Persian decor you can be proud of, especially when bringing your friends. This restaurant is family friendly, very clean amenities with extremely polite, kind and accommodating waiters and waitress that constantly check on your table to see if anything else is needed. Well done Pasargad, Merci and dastet dard nakooneh!"

"I forgot to take a picture of our special plate with the koobideh. The koobideh was THE BEST I’ve ever had, and I’ve tried a lot of Koobideh. Usually I’d rate Nikan the best, but the koobideh here beats Nikan even. The rest of the meat, such as the chicken and beef, weren’t as good. It wasn’t bad, but just not my favourite. I will definitely be back for the koobideh, wow!!"

"Pasargad is an unassuming restaurant hidden on the second floor next to a corner pub. The zereshk polo ba morg (slow cooked chicken with barberry rice) was a little sweet for me but the rest of the food was delicious and I especially adored the tart and nutty fesenjan.
Service was welcoming and helpful. It was pretty quiet when we visited though so ambience was a bit muted, but overall, we enjoyed the experience. Not sure if the food is considered authentic but I thought it was tasty and would return."
