‪abshar ‬ - دبي

The place is decently decorated lentil suppe was creamy and tasteful. add a squeeze of lime for extra tangoness to the rice is soft, meat boiled to perfection. it just melts in your mouth. the tee was too strong for my palate, so I had served it in sips along with the dates and sweets. pay attention to the sizes of portions, it is huge. So I would suggest placing an order and then order if it were on the left. I fought and had to pack the rest.

Amazing food and excellent staff. One of the best service you get in Dubai. Kebabs were delicious.

Grand Abshar restaurant is a persian restaurant situated in Umm Suqeim, in Jumeirah. The restaurant is nearly two year old and it serves some fabulous and authentic iranian fare in a very simple and casual setting. I had an opportunity to visit Abshar with food blogger suren rajamohan this week. We really enjoyed the fare, ambiance and service.

Abshar Iranian Restaurant-Dubai; A truly Persian Affair. You’d love the ambience, set in the older times, the glorious chandelier guests dining room decorated with fresh flowers for each table. Beautiful! Now the food, menu is authentically Persian so you’d find all traditional dishes like Dizi, Tachin, Chelo Kebab, Iskander Kebab, so on and so forth. We started with some Bademjan, followed by Aoush, and then devoured some kebabs that came with a side order of saffron rice ! Everything was delicious lastly the tea service had my heart, beautifully served in a teapot with condiments sweets. Loved the place, it has a soul that calls out to you. Can’t wait to be back.

The interiors here tries to capture the time past of Iranian glamour. The restaurant is simply stunning, with large inviting reception area, where stunning chandeliers inviting you, the tiled floors are grand. The place is so big, you can easily sit over 300 people. They take you back in time. Once we sat, we started to go through the menu and the host was kind enough to help us through it. We ordered the strawberry and Mango juice. Loved it, no sweet was added, the natural flavours were intact, we just asked for more ice. We ordered their Abshar special salad, which has hommous, tabouleh, mutable. This was served with a traditional bread perfect thick, crisp and topped with sesame seed. Excellent, flavours were fantastic. This was good enough for 3 people, great portion size
