Reviews Summary
Nayeb Restaurant is celebrated for its authentic and delicious traditional Iranian kebabs, served in a first-class atmosphere with attentive staff. While many praise the high quality of the food and the refined ambiance, some diners find the prices to be on the higher side, and a few reviews mention inconsistencies in food quality or service during busy periods.
"Highly recommended.
Delicious food. Great service. We were hosting 30 people for a memorial service , their service was satisfactory. $1,050,000 for each person including three kabobs, mast e moosir, salad and drinks."
Roja Ghasemi
"The service was excellent, and the kebabs were delicious. However, the prices were rather high; 2.5 million toman for two people seemed excessive for this type of establishment. It is a modest street-side restaurant, permitted to serve lunch during Ramadan, with a charming, nostalgic atmosphere reminiscent of restaurants from the 1970s."

"Exceeded my expectation about this restaurant. Well prepared food with good portions.
First class atmosphere."
