Restaurants in Tabriz

  1. A

    Baliq

    Fish, fish, fish. Fresh whole fish, fish kababs, fish köfte balls in the IR20,000 salad bar, fishing nets on the ceiling, little aquariums between the tables and even fish-shaped souvenir pens. Standards are excellent, the enticing décor includes log-and-rope chairs and a cave-wall trickling with water.

  2. B

    Modern Tabriz Restaurant

    This good-value favourite serves great kababs and excellent fried trout in a large, basement dining hall that somehow finds a successful blend of olde-worlde charm, 1960s retro and idiosyncratic kitsch. Meal prices include ‘service’, ie salad, soft drink and delicious barley-and-barberry soup.

  3. C

    Revolving Restaurant

    A Plexiglas elevator fires you through the Hotel Elgoli’s atrium like Charlie in Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory for predictably great views. The basic charge of IR50,000 entitles you to raid the soup-n-salad bar. Then add main courses including steaks, sturgeon kababs and fried shrimp.

  4. D

    Honarmandan

    Vaulted underground eatery with an amusing if tacky ‘sculpted’ centrepiece water-feature and a choice of tables or carpeted sitting platforms. Decent kababs and rich dizi (IR15,000).

  5. E

    Restaurant Tatly

    Ceilings soar to five-pointed star lamps in this renovated older building. Pizzas are typically Iranian but the ash (thick vegetable and noodle soup) is most hearty and excellent value (IR5000).

  6. F

    Linette

    Warm wood tones, a pseudo-Swiss wooden chimney-breast and glass-topped inset- tables create a congenial atmosphere despite the slightly cutesy Christmas theme. Try the creamy mushroom stroganoff.

  7. G

    Talar Bozorg Elgoli

    This busy, surprisingly unpretentious family restaurant serves Tabrizi köfte, a local home-cooking speciality like a giant Scotch egg. Order ahead in winter.
