Utter diabolical food rat

Had a brilliant meal here. On a tuesday evening in early November. We were the only people in the restaurant when we arrived, and while initially dubious, we had a fantastic meal. All the food was fresh and delicious, and it was wonderful to try the selection of dishes available. I really think the restaurant could benefit from some clearer advertising, but we were genuinely impressed. Many thanks!

Tired of curries and indiscernible flavours we tried this Persian restaurant. The flavour combinations were, as the chef stated on the menu, all his own recipes. The Ghormeh Sabzi, ( vegetarian/ vegan/ gf) considered by some as a Persian national dish, the Lamb Nihari and the lamb shank ( understandably needing to be ordered 6 hours in advance)were exceptional complemented by authentic naan the like ( and size) of which we have experienced nowhere else in our UK dining experience. Diners whether vegetarian, gluten intolerant or avid carnivores will find dishes to please prepared and served by those who have grown up in Persia/ Iran with skills probably learnt in their mother's kitchen.

This was our second visit to this restaurant. Both times, the food has been outstanding. It's an interesting menu - similar to Indian with some common spices and methods - but altogether distinctive, authentic and delicious. You can select the level of spicy heat. Every dish seems to be freshly prepared, with freshly ground spices. As we all know, this is very unusual in most Indian restaurants! The service is really friendly and charming. Plenty of easy parking. It's about 15 mins drive from centre of Shrewsbury. The wine list is quite broad in choice - good staples plus a few good unusual wines, like Massaya from Lebanon. Try this place - it's really good!

We recently stayed nearby. Since reading the menu online we'd been looking forward to eating here. With so many delicious choices on the menu we opted for the tasting banquet. We phoned ahead the day before as we wanted an early evening takeaway. On arrival at the restaurant we were personally welcomed by the chef who said he was just cooking our meal with fresh ingredients, the aromas from the kitchen were very encouraging. Once back at our accommodation we unpacked our feast. Many different dishes all of which had their own unique aromatic flavour. Delicious. We even forwarded the menu and photos to a friend with Persian / Iranian heritage who says she'd love to join us but was sadly over 200 miles away. A truly fantastic meal and we can't wait to return on our next holiday. Thank you.

My husband and I were looking for a halal place to eat in Mid Wales and came across Old Hall Persian. Very glad we did as the food was incredible. Whilst we did wait a while for the food, it came out fresh and every dish was tasty. Safe to say this is one of the best places I have dined.

Absolutely perfect evening. On reading the menu we weren't quite sure what to expect, ... what arrived at out table was truly beautiful, tasty Persian food, cooked to perfection and beautifully fresh. The owner Chef even took the time to come out and introduce himself and have a chat with the diners. Very very appreciated tasty quality evening. We highly recommend and look forward to retuning. Many thanks from the Granger family. 07534 057 212

A unique negative experience! Incredible! We reserved a table for our friends and us, asked again for confirmation and this evening we?ve found the place closed, no sign of live and nobody took a call! Totally unreliable! If you are looking for a spoiled Saturday evening, book this place!

So after many years of passing this place we decided to call in on our way home. The food is not aisian it's Persian. It's a beautiful old building and needs some tlc. The front door sill has rotted and fallen off so mind your step upon entry ....it may be removed before you're visit if you decide to go. Pieces of off cut carpet leading up to the dining room. The toilets were clean but in dire need of painting. Enough of that. The waitress was very pleasant . My dining chair almost engulfed me, thankfully the wooden frame saved me from getting wedged and remained a constantl reminder as it gently dug into my legs. Food ordered. Lot's of loud voices coming from the kitchen. We waited just over three quarters of an hour for the food to arrive . So it's freshly cooked. So what do you do with so much time on your hands while waiting to be fed? You look at little closer to your environment. Grit on the table cloth in the little bay window next to us. Lot's of little things that needs to be addressed. Food then. I ordered Shimla chicken, hot. My husband ordered a lamb dish. Rice and a plain naan. Good portions . My dish was nice, my husbands dish was nice, that's all I can say really and for someone it seems who likes the sound of her own voice...May speak volumes. Bon appetite.

I've been coming here for years! For first time took a friend with me and he was stunned on the hospitality and quality of food and price was below expected! The flavours from each different meal are extraordinary! A must place to go if your a foody!
