Behesht Restaurant (Kensal Green)

Behesht Restaurant has been a beloved part of our community for as long as I can remember, and I’ve had the pleasure of dining here for over 20 years. It’s not just a restaurant—it’s an institution, a place where tradition, flavor, and warmth come together to create an unforgettable experience. Every visit feels like coming home, thanks to the welcoming atmosphere and the kind, attentive staff who go above and beyond to make you feel special. But let’s be honest, the real star of the show is the food. The mix platter is legendary, a perfect harmony of flavors that never fails to impress. The saffron rice is aromatic and perfectly cooked, while the naan bread, served with their signature chutney, is simply divine. And let’s not forget the drinks—their ayran is refreshingly tangy, and the mojitos are always spot-on, making every meal feel like a celebration.

What truly amazes me is how Behesht has maintained its exceptional quality and authentic taste over the years. It’s rare to find a restaurant that stays so consistent, and that’s why it holds a special place in my heart. Whether you’re a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, Behesht never disappoints. If you’re looking for a dining experience that combines great food, excellent service, and a sense of community, this is the place to be. Thank you, Behesht, for two decades of incredible meals and memories—here’s to many more!

Behesht restaurant always fascinates me and my family also friends. We are its customers for over 15 years in a row this mean atleast once every month, last week we had our office dinner and it was fantastic.

Really good Iranian food with a traditional atmosphere. The price is very reasonable and the service friendly. Will definitely be coming back here, and recommend for a relaxing Sunday lunch.

As a lover of Persian food, having tried Molana, Persian Palace, Berenjak, and Boof, I can confidently say this is the worst Persian restaurant we have ever visited. Even though we had a booking, we had to wait 40 mins to be seated. The service is appalling, the waiter was huffing and puffing as he was taking our order. The manager is rude and was giving the staff a hard time. We had to continuously ask for things, like cutlery, food, the bill. The restaurant is very poorly managed. The food was average, absolutely nothing special about it. The chicken was very chewy and the soup was not edible. The tables and chairs are not fit for purpose, it is hard wood with small rugs on them. No cushioning or comfort, and the seats are all cramped together. You can’t sit for more than 15 mins without your back starting to ache. All in all, I would not recommend Behesht. Although the restaurant is decorated really nice with beautiful frames and pieces dotted around. However, they should focus more on their food quality and friendliness.

Been coming here since I was a kid, loved it then and still love it to this day. Quite literally everything was good and if we had an issue they sorted it out straight away. All of the food was high quality and cooked perfectly. Always end it with a Iranian tea with mint 👌🏽 Great service, great food, great vibes. 10/10 highly recommend!
