Persia Grill - Metro Manila

My lamb biryani would've been more appetizing if they didn't serve it as big blob of rice (the meat was hiding under). It was not that bad though. The meat was tender, but it was light on the flavor. It was on the pricey range in my opinion. Should've stuck with the kebab instead. Service was okay.

Diners in Persia Grill can enjoy their meals served either on an ornate wooden table with a view of the colorful stained glass lanterns, or inside a curtained nook that feels like an oriental palace view. Anyone who also wants to dine at night will experience the restaurant being bathed in a blue light. The food itself is a bit pricey, but the menu is large enough to satisfy the varied palates of anyone craving Persian food. The usual chicken, beef, and lamb shawarma or kebabs can be served in the classic pita or with buttered rice, a grilled tomato or two, and a garlic yoghurt dip. A constant favorite of mine is the Chelo Kebab Combination (P339), which is the rice meal with a long roll of ground beef (called "Kubideh"), and either savory (called "Morg") or spicy (called "Tikka") chicken. Another option is the Abgusht (P319; additional P85 for the buttered Persian rice) which is a beef stew with chickpeas (garbanzos), white beans, and potato chunks in a spicy-sour broth. Good for sharing, or for one really hungry person like me. Aside from the usual soda, iced teas, or juices, Persia Grill offers a sweet yoghurt shake (P95) in a tall glass that is great to cool off and cleanse the palate. Of all things I look forward to that the most when I visit Persia Grill, and I am certainly looking forward to having another one soon.

I like the fact that its open 24 hours. You have to order their yogurt shake it is very delicious. Food wise is okay because I'm a fan of middle eastern food. Their kebabs are delicious, try their beef kebab wrap it is so good pair it with their sauce. However service wise, the serving time is too long, there was a time that we came back to the office late. I know why, they have few crew like there was a time when he's the one taking the order and the same time doing kitchen stuff.
