Tehran restaurant

Head down to Moseley and you'll find Tehran tucked away on Alcester Road, where the smell of charcoal and saffron hits you before you even walk through the door. This is the kind of place locals actually frequent, not somewhere you stumble upon by accident. The menu reads like a love letter to Persian cuisine: juicy kebabs cooked over open flames, fluffy tahdig rice with a properly crispy bottom, and stews that taste like they've been simmering for hours. The room's unpretentious—honest food, proper portions, and staff who genuinely want you to have a good time. With a 4.6 rating from nearly 120 reviews, people clearly keep coming back for good reason.
