Restaurants can be hit and miss affairs, but at Orkideh, my favourite 'local', both the food and the service are exemplary. Whilst restaurants can't please all their customers all of the time, Orkideh does go that extra mile...which is why I keep coming back (on my own and with friends) for more. You can see why they were recently featured... More

I have been there twice. The food was acceptable, and the service was great. However the amount of compare to others was less. The other disadvantage was that they didn't charged us for service charge first time, but the next time they charged us 12.5% more for service. I liked the Kabab Torsh more than other foods.

Persian food is one of my favourite cuisines, but i have to say that this place didnt satisfy my taste buds as other persian restaurants have done previously. The service however was amazing, and i cant fault them on that. In regards to the food, we started off with a pomegranate salad which was really tangy. We couldnt finish it... More

This is the best middle eastern food I've ever eaten. The taste of each dish is really really fresh, and the service is so attentive it's almost embarrasing! But that's because we've become used to offhand service. The bread alone is worth a trip. It's very very thin, more like a biscuit, cooked in something like a tandoor and full... More

This is becoming my place to celebrate every time!! I am never disappointed , the food is always so delicious and actually tastes as good as when my Iranian father cooks for me. The meat is so tender and the rice is so light and fragrant. The Yoghurt drink is something extra special. In addition to all of this their... More

The stars are the Italian manageress and the great food. Different tastes and homemade authentically Persian food including flat bread make this a very good restaurant. We really enjoyed the meal. In common with many places the red wine is served at room temperature which was circa 24% when the wine should be around 19%.

Just had a lovely evening in Orkideh (my third so far) and it's everything you'd want from a restaurant - food to die for made with fresh ingredients and lots of flair. Wonderful flavours, marvellous service and a thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable evening. It will be my regular restaurant of choice for a long time to come.

I found this new Persian Restaurant on Finchley Rd which i am now totally in love with. Great food, and lovely service. I absolutly love the Koofteh Tabrizi and the amazing Chenjeh. The koofteh reminds me of my grandmothers koofteh back in Iran. So delicious.... Oh And it was the first time where i tried a Persian saffron beer called... More

Have eaten at Orkideh several times now since they opened and it has now, along with the little Italian Giacomo's in Child's Hill, become my second favourite 'local'. I now recommend it to everyone I meet, and all the people I know who've eaten there love it. While I'm a fully fledged vegetarian, I love the vibrancy of the salads... More
