    I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant! The menu was incredibly creative, blending inspiration from Persian cuisine with a modern twist. It was evident that the chef had thoughtfully crafted a unique menu by drawing from the rich flavours of Persian and French culinary traditions. The appetizers, especially the dips, were absolutely delicious, and the main courses were equally impressive. Every dish was well-prepared and bursting with flavour. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a unique and refined take on Persian-inspired cuisine!

    We had 7 in our party. We were well served, given lots of time and no feeling of being rushed out. Food was lovely.

    The food at Delara restaurant was good—delicious and well-prepared. However, the experience ended on a disappointing note. After being questioned about the tip in an unprofessional manner, I brought up the server’s attitude and inappropriate wording with the manager. Her response shocked me: “Oh, that’s because he is a foreigner!” Hearing such a remark was upsetting and felt dismissive of the situation. While the food was great, professionalism and respect are equally important, and this incident left a negative impression. I hope they address these concerns to ensure a better experience for future customers.

    We ordered the flat bread and the dips were delicious! Their special was short ribs and it was definitely the highlight.

    Good food at somewhat reasonable prices. My chicken dish was a bit bland and not as well seasoned as I expected. The lamb dish my friend had was good as was the lentil dish.
