What People Are Saying About Persepolis Persian Cuisine

The Scene – Persian families take their place among decorative columns and fake plants in this low-slung Sandy Springs building, but plenty of others have discovered the cozy, polished destination for Middle Eastern favorites. Watch out for the weekend belly dancer--her scarves can go awry and come close to being skewered by your kabob. Service is friendly and helpful. – – The Food – The combo appetizer platter holds some of the best selections, including a cooling yogurt and cucumber sauce, dolma (grape leaves wrapped around ground sirloin, rice, vegetables and herbs)…

great place for a great family meal
by gourmet chef at Citysearch
Daily buffet is very generous and most of the foods offered are done just right. It does not get must better than this- an authentic persian meal the way it is supposed to be.
The dessert menu is rather poor and repetitive- should include a little more fresh fruits/ pastries/ sweets.
Female waitresses are very slow, sometimes just outright rude- they do not help this otherwise excellent establishement. With a few small changes this could be a 5 star dining establishement
- Pros: ecellent food friendly environment
- Cons: sluggish service

Worst Service ever had
by reviewlr at Citysearch
Had 3 waitresses and 1 manager who sat and did nothing. Couldn't even get their attention as they sat and talked to each other as if they had no customers. We were one of three tables and no one got service. All were upset. Some banged on plates to get attention and some yelled across empty restaurant. I thought that was rude, but it appeared the only to get service.
- Pros: very good food
- Cons: no service at all

Good but could be better
by revmany at Citysearch
I have been here many times. Both ala Carte and buffet. Never had any issue in the ala carte. I have the chicken kebabs or barg... both are excellent and are much better than the buffet versions (hot and soft).
The buffet has a lot of meat and veggie stuff. Overall a good value.
Their starter bread (lavash I think) is the best.
The service could be a little better. The big TV in the dining room of a classy restaurant is a disaster! I dont know who came up with that idea.
The prices could be a little lower for better value after all they are in a dumpy location. A Saturday buffet would be a good option.
- Pros: Great food, excellent bread
- Cons: Location hard to find, parking,price-to-value
The Details on Persepolis Persian Cuisine
When to Go:
The weekday lunch buffet (11:30am-3pm) includes rice, stews, lamb shank, chicken kabobs and a salad bar.
Know Before You Go:
Use the complimentary taftoun, a piece of soft, warm flatbread, to pick up garnishes of radishes, cheese, raw onion and butter and dipping appetizers.
The Extras:
Persian ice cream gets old quickly with its cloying rosewater scent. Instead, order the faloudeh (frozen rice noodles) and top with tart lemon juice to cover up the soapy taste.
