Shiraz Restaurant in Wijk 20 Valkenboskwartier

Waited more than an hour for food, and afterwards we felt nauseous and a friend threw up! The rice was of terrible quality, the meat tasteless!

Welcome to Shiraz Restaurant 🌿 I run this place with love and passion to share the true taste of authentic Iranian cuisine with you. At Shiraz Restaurant, every dish is carefully prepared with the best fresh ingredients, because I believe that quality and taste are the most important parts of a good meal. Our restaurant is traditional and has an intimate atmosphere; where you can enjoy delicious kebabs, traditional stews and fragrant rice in a warm and friendly atmosphere. This is not just a restaurant, but a corner of Iranian culture and hospitality. I hope you have a memorable experience. ✨

The best Iranian restaurant in The Hague , I'm Good Food Lover, And I adore the food the service the atmosphere and the he way you are treated by the owners , Bless you 🙏

The ghemeh bademjan lacked flavor, eggplant cut improperly (large cubes not cooked well), and meat too chewy. Made me actually miss my mother in law for her Persian stews!

Delicious food and really good quality. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Definitely recommended for anyone who loves Iranian food!

The atmosphere was very friendly

Restaurant Shiraz in The Hague has truly become a regular spot for us. We get takeout here several times a month, especially when we are just in the mood for really good Iranian home-cooked food. Since my family doesn't live near The Hague, this is genuinely the best option we have — and we are incredibly happy about that, especially because we live so close. The food is fantastic. Their kebab koobideh, in particular, is truly amazing: well-seasoned, perfectly prepared, and incredibly flavorful. The rice is always delicious too. Additionally, the staff is incredibly friendly and hospitable. You feel welcome as soon as you walk in, and you are always well assisted. The prices are also very reasonable for what you get these days, and the quality remains top-notch every single time. Unfortunately, we almost never take photos of the food, simply because it is usually all gone before we even think to take a picture — and that really says it all. Definitely recommended if you are in The Hague and are in the mood for delicious Iranian food!

It really couldn't be better, everything was perfect: the food, the service, and the atmosphere.

The food was honestly amazing, and the service felt super warm and friendly. We’ll definitely be back! The quality of the food was excellent, let’s go to Denhach, only Shiraz restaurant 👌

A very good restaurant, delicious food! A very clean and good restaurant, kind staff and delicious food Greetings from the Netherlands

Top! Very tasty Iranian kebab! Kheili khoshimaze bud! Incredibly delicious! Absolutely recommended!

I assume that when someone names their restaurant 'Shiraz,' they're either from Shiraz or have a strong love for the city. So I was surprised when I asked them about it and they didn’t have anything good to say!

Really nice spot if you’re into Persian food. Shiraz Restaurant has that authentic vibe without trying too hard. Food feels homemade and well balanced. The koobideh was juicy, rice was on point and portions are quite generous. Staff are friendly and not overly formal, which I like. Not a fancy place, but solid quality and a good atmosphere. Definitely worth it if you’re craving proper Iranian food in Den Haag.

We’ve been there twice and I loved the food both times 😊 Although the restaurant itself is really small compared to the ones back in Iran, which is common here in the Netherlands, the service and the food is really good. It can take you back home We will definitely go there again whenever we happen to go to Den Haag 😊

Ashe Reshte and Kıbideh are unique!

Everything was great, both the food and the staff's behavior ❤️ May your hands not hurt.

What should have been a fun evening turned out to be nothing. * The chicken, kebab, and leg of lamb were perfectly acceptable, tender, and delicious. * The rice was overflowing with dill, making you almost nauseous 🤢 * Spa water cost €13‼️ for one bottle‼️ At Makro, you can get 6 bottles for less, see the photo! * No atmosphere inside, no music. * The service was fast. Then, upon seeing the receipt, you ask, "€13 for water?" Yes, €13, the answer… All in all, I spent a fortune for absolutely nothing of value. I feel like I've been scammed, even though the food I was served is NEVER worth that much. Yes, we all pay a lot for eating out, but not for these ingredients. See you never again.

We got Ash Reshte which was really nice, a bit watery but that is just my taste. Kabab kobide was nice but I didn’t like the smell. Djuje kabab was nice and delicious Faloode Shirazi was amazing. The service was very nice, they were very welcoming and hospitable.

Delicious food with authentic flavors. Very friendly and professional staff. Highly recommended!

Food quality was disappointing. Most dishes were not served hot, and some were undercooked. Additionally, one of our orders was forgotten, and we had to request it twice before it was brought.

Small restaurant, delicious food, and hospitable owners. Definitely recommended.

Amazing. Was here last week with my son. Great food. And exceptional prices.

It took very long to receive our order and when it was brought to our table it was cold. The mixed grill was a bit bland and dry. I believe this restaurant has much more potential if they put more attention to seasoning and service.

The food was fine, but the service was unfortunately very poor. We dined here as a family and had to wait over an hour for our food. While we were waiting, several tables that arrived later were already fully served and had already finished their food. A larger group that arrived after us was also served much more quickly. It felt like they prioritize large groups, which I found very disappointing and disrespectful. The staff was disappointing, with the exception of one employee. No one came to ask if we wanted to order anything else. We wanted tea and dessert, but because we literally waited 15 minutes without anyone looking at us, we decided against it. Employees kept walking past our table without paying attention. We finally got up, paid, and left immediately. Moreover, the food was nothing special.

The food is absolutely delicious, and they're also very friendly. Long live Kurdish food!

The kebab with rice is delicious. The staff is super friendly!

Delicious flavors and fair prices! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to try authentic Persian food!

I had a wonderful experience at Shiraz Restaurant! The food was incredibly delicious and of high quality, and the hospitality of the staff was truly excellent. The warm and friendly attitude of the staff, along with the pleasant environment, was a treat for me and my family. We had come from Rotterdam. My special recommendation: [Mix Tehran Kebab for one person, of course with eggplant curd].

Had a wonderful experience at Shiraz Restaurant I recently visited Shiraz Restaurant in Den Haag and I must say that I had an unforgettable experience. The authentic and delicious Iranian food served here is truly unique. The kebabs and stews are incredibly delicious and flavorful, and of course the fragrant pilaf really had a special flavor. From the desserts, what I personally liked was that they made their own ice cream and faloodeh, the ice cream was filled with pistachios, there were three types of faloodeh that were delicious and excellent. The restaurant atmosphere was also warm and intimate, providing a pleasant environment for a friendly or family evening. The hospitality of the staff was also great. We really felt like we were guests in an Iranian home. Thanks to the Shiraz Restaurant team for this great experience

Restaurant Shiraz in The Hague is truly one of the best and most renowned Iranian restaurants where I've experienced traditional Iranian cuisine. From the very beginning, they presented a professional menu with a list of various Iranian dishes, such as kebabs, stews, rice dishes, and Iranian desserts. The taste of the food, the quantity, and the service were truly excellent. The restaurant's interior wasn't very large, but it was clean and attractive. In my opinion, if you want a good Iranian food experience, you should definitely visit Restaurant Shiraz. Even though we didn't have a reservation and the restaurant was very busy, we were greeted with a smile.

Everything was great, thank you.

It was really tasty and the people were really nice there

Very very very tasty kebab koobideh! Topol (very generous) portion of rice and kebab! The kebab was really so tender and charb!!!!! Kheili khoshmaze Bud!!! Dastetun tala!!!

Very good food and friendly staff! If you want authentic Iranian cuisine - this is the place to go!

Nice place with deliciouskebab koebide.

It used to have a good quality but this time I understood that the quality and the quantity has changed, I really expected more. You have this potential, so please change this. Thanks

What a wonderful evening! From the moment we entered, the atmosphere was perfect: warm, relaxed, and stylish. Each dish had its own character, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The main course (Koubideh) was perfectly cooked, rich in flavor, and wonderfully balanced. This is the kind of place you don't just come to eat, but to truly enjoy yourself. We will definitely be back! =================================== We had an amazing dinner last night that truly hit the spot. The vibe was relaxed yet refined, and the very friendly staff made us feel right at home. Every dish had its own personality, beautifully plated, and full of flavor. The highlight? (Koubideh) A perfectly cooked main course that was rich, balanced, and comforting in all the right ways. This place doesn't just serve food—it creates moments. We will certainly come back and try more!

I'm very happy with Shiraz restaurant. I've been enjoying going there for years. They took care of the catering for our wedding. They were very helpful in making the arrangements. Communication was smooth, and the price was very reasonable. The food was delicious.

This restaurant used to be really good, the quality of the food and the service were excellent. But unfortunately I had a very bad experience last time. Both the food quality had gone down and the service was not at all what it used to be. I was really disappointed.

Excellent restaurant with friendly and kind staff

My boyfriend and I enjoy delicious shiraz almost every week! Since we started coming here, it's always been our first choice—one of the better and most affordable Persian restaurants in the area. Sometimes we dine in and sometimes we get takeout! The food is consistently good and never disappoints. Above all, the staff is always friendly. We love coming here, and we definitely recommend it!

The atmosphere was charming and pleasant. The food was very, very delicious. 😋I experienced a really different taste. Excellent service👍. Very friendly staff. 🥰

Shiraz Restaurant in Den Haag was one of my best Persian food experiences. The warm and cozy interior with traditional Persian music creates a special sense of calm. The food is very tasty and authentic; especially the kebab kobideh and the vegetable stew which had an incomparable taste. The staff was very respectful and friendly, and the service was timely. The prices are also quite fair for the quality of the food. If you are looking for a real taste of Persian food in the Netherlands, Shiraz Restaurant is a great choice.

This Iranian restaurant, with its excellent food quality and friendly and respectful staff, creates an enjoyable and memorable experience for guests.

We didn’t get a chance to dine in and was ordering take away, but the interior looked very cozy and nice. The kebabs and Ghorme Sabzi were delicious! The staff were very nice and genuine! I totally recommend this place!

[August 29, 8:48 PM] .: I've been a regular at Shiraz in The Hague for years, dining there regularly, often alone. What I've noticed for a while now is that solo diners don't receive the same treatment as larger groups. Several times, I've been told a table was "reserved," while a little later other guests—without reservations—were simply seated. This feels unfair and gives the impression that they prefer serving larger groups over individual diners. [August 29, 8:48 PM] .: During my most recent visit, my disappointment was even greater. For a considerable amount of money, I received a plate with no more than 15 tablespoons of rice and only two small, burnt kebab pieces. An exceptionally meager portion, especially considering the sharply increased prices. Because I was still hungry and, moreover, a regular, I politely asked if I could have some extra rice. [29-8 20:48] .: However, the waitress acted as if the small amount of rice I initially received was a normal portion. When I indicated I only wanted a little extra, she said this was only possible if I ordered a "new portion." To my surprise, I then received a large plate of rice, many times more than my first plate—and exactly the amount I was used to from previous visits. In other words, what was initially presented to me as a full portion was actually only a fraction of it. Moreover, I had to pay an additional €5 for this second plate. [29-8 20:48] .: The biggest problem for me isn't so much the extra charge, but the feeling of being misled. There was no honest communication about the portions, and I got the strong impression that they were deliberately telling untruths. I would also like to emphasize that most of the staff don't speak Dutch well, but there was no language barrier: I spoke to them in their own language, so there was no chance of any misunderstanding. That's precisely why this experience feels like deliberate dishonesty. [29-8 20:48] .: Furthermore, the quality of the food has clearly deteriorated. The saffron in the rice tasted artificial, the kebabs were burnt, and the portions have become much smaller, while the prices have risen sharply. The price-quality ratio is completely out of whack. All in all, I've unfortunately had to conclude that Shiraz no longer offers its loyal guests the quality, honesty, and hospitality you expect. For me, this means, after many years, that I will not be returning.

Amazing customer service. Really delicious food. Very cosy environment.

A very pleasant environment with professional staff and of course very delicious food. Excellent, excellent.

Very good food. Same standard as in Iran. Well-priced. The blond saffron beer was only 3 euros, which I can't find anywhere else in the Netherlands anymore 😅. The atmosphere is much nicer than the photos on Google Maps suggest. Service was fast. Best Iranian restaurant I've seen in The Hague so far.

Delicious Iranian foods 😋 yummy

Ordered the dolme for appetiser, they did not bring any plates for us! For main we got kabab kobide which was horrible, disgusting, I can not even be sure it was made with real meat ! The worst kebab I have ever had ! We also got mahiche which was good and tasted fine . Overall the staff were not friendly at all and not hospitable! They would not even check on us or any thing ! DO NOT Recommend! Poor food and hospitality quality .

Best kabab koobide in the whole of the Netherlands!

If i could give 10 starts, i would definitely. This place is hands down THE BEST Iranian restaurant i have tried in the Netherlands!! I have tried 4 other restaurants in Amsterdam and Rotterdam in total and nothing tops this place. Their kebab is the best! So so yummy and delicious and rich with flavors. Other dishes like fesenjoon and ghorme sabzi etc. are delicious as well. Everything tastes so fresh and is very well seasoned. I always recommend this place to my friends who want to try really good iranian food

Absolutely outstanding experience! The food was perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The staff was warm, attentive, and made us feel truly welcome. Every detail, from the ambiance to the dessert, was spot on. Easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommended — will definitely be coming back!

Food was delicious, just like in Iran, definitely recommended.

I recently went to this Persian restaurant and absolutely loved it! The staff were exceptionally friendly, attentive and warm - you immediately feel welcome. The food was also a real highlight: fresh, aromatic and prepared with a lot of love. The grilled meat dishes and the rice variations were particularly delicious. If you like (or want to get to know) Persian cuisine, you've come to the right place. I'll definitely be back!

One of the better Persian restaurants in the country , reasonable prices and authentic atmosphere

I recommend the “Baghali polo & Mahiche”(same in the photo)

Nice little Persian restaurant. The food was served very quickly and tasted good, but in my opinion it was prepared beforehand and then just warmed up. The service was very nice.

I ordered Chelokabab Koobideh at Restaurant Shiraz The Hague and I was very satisfied. The kebabs were very tasty, the portion was more than sufficient and the meat was well cooked and tender. A wonderful and pleasant experience! I will definitely come back here.

Top food, top service, top location

Restaurant Shiraz in The Hague is highly recommended! The food was truly delicious: the flavors of Persian cuisine were beautifully reflected in the different dishes we tasted. From the juicy kebabs to the flavorful rice dishes, everything was perfectly prepared and had the right balance of herbs and spices. What made the visit extra pleasant was the friendly staff. They were incredibly hospitable, helpful and made us feel immediately at ease. The atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and inviting, making it a perfect place to dine with friends or family. In short, Shiraz is a top address for anyone who loves Persian food. I will definitely come back here!

Overall nice fresh food and a fun dive into Iranian cuisine. Food didn't take long and the server was friendly (although quite hard to get his attention). Decently pricey, but the portions are big enough to take some home.

Lovely place and super delicious food❤️kase kabab was not the authentic one that I expected but still best one in the Netherlands 👍🏻

Best quality and very good-natured.

Good food and service with nice atmospher.

Delicious food, cozy place full of green plants, service was TOP!! Something you unfortunately no longer encounter in many places, but all employees were super friendly and quick. And the food was also delicious, we were a group of 7 people and everyone was very positive. For me personally, the chicken really stood out, wonderfully tender. I had indicated to the owner (I think) that I never promise to post a review (usually I forget or I am too lazy) but I wanted to emphasize once again how wonderful an evening it was for us. Thanks!!!

The best and cleanest restaurant in the Netherlands, and the management is respectable. When I came, I found crowds and an empty table. She said, “You don’t have a reservation. We apologize.” I told her, “I’m coming from a walk.” She let me in and gave me a table where her son was sitting. A delicious, delicious, and professional restaurant. The feathers are hard, hard, hard.

Friendly staff with warm welcoming. Delicious food, specially their kebabs has tastes like the best restaurants in tehran.

Today I ordered my food and picked it up later, but I also often had a nice meal here with friends and family. I am certainly satisfied with the hospitality and service and I think the price-quality ratio is also excellent.

Restaurant Shiraz in The Hague is a hidden gem! The food is fresh and delicious, with authentic flavors that really make you enjoy it. What makes this restaurant extra special is the staff: incredibly friendly and hospitable, who immediately make you feel at home. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for a pleasant evening. I can't wait to go back and highly recommend it to everyone!

Ordered food here today as a regular customer (uber eats). Part of the order was incorrect and instead of being helpful, the gentleman on the phone was downright rude "mint and basil are not in season" "and just call Uber Eats". First of all, it seems very clear to me that as a restaurant you cannot get mint and basil, and in addition, why not take the item off your menu? It's nice and easy to fob off your customer with "just contact Uber Eats". Never again.

Always great food and super friendly people, nothing to complain about, you get your food quickly, you don't have to wait long or while it's a top restaurant 🤤

The quality of the food is excellent The atmosphere of the restaurant is calm and pleasant

The restaurant was quite cold and the waiter did not communicate well and I ordered shallot yogurt, I waited a long time, the service was very bad they

Delicious food. Staff is very nice and helpful. Cozy atmosphere. All in all perfect evening. We really enjoyed the Persian food

Perfect restaurant and tasty food

Friendly personel Good quality of the food. I have been in most of Persian restaurant in Netherland. From Amsterdam to Rotterdam, the best taste of Persian food is here. Kase kebab and Vaziri kebab are the best choice. Good drinks.

The food was amazing. Best kebab we had in a long time.

The only place in the Netherlands where we can trust the type of food cooking, the observance of hygiene principles and the quality of their raw materials and enjoy the good taste of their food. The attitude of the staff of this restaurant is also very friendly and polite.

Kashke bademjan and Mirza ghasemi were super delicious. If you are a fan of eggplant, I would suggest trying one. The main dishes were served in large portions, although the rice wasn't Persian as stated on the menu. We also ordered saffron ice cream, which wasn't authentic, and the taste didn't resemble Persian saffron ice cream at all. I would say the service was lacking; we asked three times to have our table cleaned, and each time, it was only partially done. The environment was nice, with Persian songs playing in the background.

Food was very bad. The soup was because the last portion of the pan was given to me. mahi che polo meat was so hard you couldn't eat it.. not again this restaurant..

Food was great, big portion sizes and the service was great aswell.

Had a lovely dinner here on recommendation from an Iranian colleague. It did not disappoint. The interior has perhaps seen better times but the excellent food and friendly staff more than make up for it.

Recommended. Good Iranian restaurant. 3 times been here and always good 👍

One of the best Persian restaurants I’ve ever tasted in Den Haag. The meal was delicious, and the plates are very nice. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Kebab was delicious but Ash Reshte was not good at all!

Food tasted good. Staff friendly. Prices also reasonable. I didn't find the ambience that nice, but everything else was great.

Highly recommended! One of the best restaurants we have eaten at. If anyone knows what Persian cuisine means, it's the owners

Food was great with big portion and tender nice taste that you miss from Iran while you live abroad

Nice and cozy restaurant with very friendly staff. Food is fine and not expensive.

The food is fine, rice is perfect, very good service, friendly employees. I recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Due to the good recent reviews, we wanted to give Shiraz another chance. but this time was once again disappointing. Kebab Barg was inedible. meat was not fresh and tasted very strange. As if it was cooked and microwaved a few days ago.

We ordered Shishlik and Kashke Bademjan, both food’s portion was good and the taste was fine. They also provided a complimentary tray of sides, which was a nice touch. However, I found the Kashke Bademjan a bit too spicy for my taste, though others might appreciate the extra kick.

Excellent food from the Persian-Iranian menu. Very friendly help. A gem in The Hague.

I just wanted to share my frustration about my last visit to the restaurant. I am often in the Netherlands, usually in Rotterdam, but this time I was in The Hague for the first time and I wanted to spend a nice evening with my colleague. Being from Germany, I had some problems with the internet. When we sat at our table I asked the owner if there was free Wi-Fi. His response was simply rude: "You're asking a strange question!" That's really not the way you should expect a restaurant to treat customers. Maybe that good man has not had any integration in Europe and therefore does not know how to deal with customers. In addition, we wanted to sit outside, which was rejected. That in itself is fine, but other guests were allowed to sit outside and were served. Then you wonder about customer friendliness. And the food? The kebabs were way too salty - for me a sign that the quality of the meat is not really great. You just have to season it strongly to hide the flaws. The rice was dry and only the portion size was okay. Unfortunately I cannot recommend your restaurant. For me, the service counts the most and that's where you really failed.

Very nice place, kind staffs and delicious Kebabs Highly recommended

Quality Persian food in a very nice decoration. The dishes are homemade and plentiful. I highly recommend

Very delicious meals and desserts as well as friendly staffs who give a quick services as needed. Lovely atmosphere and strongly recommended.

Nice shop, reception great, prices a bit high, quality ok.
