  3. Bijan's

    Soft Mediterranean music, sepia photos and displays of olive-oil bottles create a delightful atmosphere in this very un-Iranian Italian bistro where talented chef Bijan (trained in Sheffield rather than Sorrento) turns out scrumptious pastas served with huge bowls of Parmesan.

  4. Boof

    This big, fast-food outlet has a grey-and-neon battleship interior and is worth visiting if only for the futuristic titanium column-sinks in the toilets.

  5. Kourosh

    Kourosh wins no prizes for décor but offers numerous typical Gilani dishes including dill-rich bagilah qotoq , zeitun parvarden (olives in walnut paste) and garlic mast. On a good day their mirza ghasemi can be superb but the fesenjun is rather tart.

  6. Kumeh

    The most interesting of a huddle of restaurants in the Park-e-Shahr area, Kumeh has Irano-Hawaiian covered dining platforms outside. Inside is more standard but sharing a post-prandial qalyan here is an ideal way to meet friendly regulars.

  7. Pizza Pizza

    Comparatively pricey but unusual in having female wait-staff and a children's play area. Order downstairs, menu in English.
