In the Crowne Plaza with terrace view of the bay. Good food and attentive service, hotel prices but not excessively expensive, especially for Middle Eastern hotel restaurants! Makes a change from the usual choice of fare although not being Iranian I'm not sure how authentic the food is but it is good.

It is proudly billed as the only Iranian restaurant in Muscat, if not the whole of Oman, and offers, therefore something a little different. The portions are huge - possibly as a sop to the local population who like this apparently - so be warned. Our overall impression was that it somehow failed to be really authenticly Persian and were slightly disappointed. The staff are great though. If staying at the Crowne Plaza definitely worth a try. .

We were staying at the Crown Plaza and having flown in from the UK that day did not wish to venture too far on our first evening. Sometimes restaurants in hotels disappoint but this one did not. We had a delicious meal sitting on the balcony overlooking the sea and tennis courts. The service was attentive, the menu varied and the food carefully cooked and well presented.

I love Persian food, in fact it's my favorite cuisine. Shiraz resturant in the Crowne Plaza, Muscat had good food no doubt, but the price was so absurdly high that if I want good Persian food again I will by a ticket to Iran and get it at the source as It would be more economically viable.

Sad I had to rate it a 3, the chef deserves better :(

Was there with a large group and the place was busy! Yet the food quality and service were a perfect Match! The view from the Terrace is breathtaking! Their Hot Bred freshly baked makes all the difference! Yummy!
