Lamb chops were delicious and super juicy! Rosè wine was fragrant and served at the right temperature. Friendly staff will explain the dishes to you if you are undecided. Lovely atmosphere and beautiful location, will be back for sure.

The people were really friendly when we came to the restaurant. All smiles and sweetness from the staff. We recommend the sampler platter for the appetizer. It was stupendous. I could have eaten a full entree of each. My wife had the lamb kebabs and I had the chicken in sauce. Both were excellent and for me the chicken was cooked perfectly and the rice that came with it was buttery and included the crispy bits as I would expect from a Persian restaurant. Highly recommend!

We shared the starter plate for four people and tried three of the stews. The food is delicious. Each dish in the starter plate and among the stews had a unique taste. The staff was attentive, they made funny jokes in between quick service and gave us good recommendations regarding which stews to pick. All in all a very good experience. Highly recommend.

As a Persian myself, I can guarantee that this place is one of the best Iranian restaurants in Berlin. The food is top-notch, and the design of the place is classic and timeless. There is a wide array of foods available to try and the staff is very polite and kind. Overall, my family and I had the best experience there and I recommend it to everyone. MUCH better than other restaurants in Berlin serving Iranian food. In my opinion, this place hits home and is closest to actual Persian food one eats in Iran.

I was looking for a Persian restaurant in Berlin and Koroush restaurant pop up on google search. From the reviews and photos and ofcourse the name Koroush (Cyrus the great) I said for sure I have to go for lunch here today. As I was walking towards the restaurant I was greeted by the owner MrAhmed. He had a warm smile and very kindly welcomes me to the restaurant. I order Vaziri kebab which is one minced kebab (koobideh) and one chicken kebab ( joojeh). I order non alcoholic beer and mast o mosir ( yogurt eshallots dip). It did not take long before the food has arrived. The aroma and the spices took me to Iran. The food portions were great. large sizes chicken and koobideh with decent amount of rice two tomatos grilled one green pepper and a small portion salad. The food taste great and the food was served hot. I was very impressed by the service and quality of the food at Koroush restaurant. Next time I'm in Berlin I will surely visit Koroush restaurant again. Sposas Kak Ahmed. Thank you. ps: You can reach to Koroush from Alexanderplaz only one station away close walking distance to metro.
