Shabestan, Finest Persian Restaurant

The restaurant was in a good location, and had great service in the riverside ambience and good range on the menu. We especially liked the lamb kebab, hummus, okra curry and pistachio ice cream.

Great food great ambience... lovely dinner by the river. Good service as well. Friendly staff. All in all the experience was lovely. Dinner date fabulous

Fantastic food and impeccable service! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is looking for good Persian or Iranian food. One of the best in Singapore!

Awesome food + Great service = Fantastic evening.... 9 of us went and we had good time at the restaurant. Have good selection of wines. Recommend you to take Shabestan Platters.... *****

Food is nice and good but very hard to call for service. The eyes of the waiters not always around. Better to improve the service.

Location is good and ambience pleasant, though the food is overpriced and the service quite inconsistent. We had a good time overall, though felt we overpaid for what we got.

When we arrived the staff were too busy, not that they were under-staffed but they are just not eager to receive guest. That surely needs to be improved. Nevertheless, food was awesome.

Great restaurant! It's our second time visiting the restaurant. We always go there when we visit Singapore. We had the best food and service!! Highly recommend it!

Authentic persian cuisine prepared at a mid-top tier class. Prices can be at the high-end, however quality is not compromised. Time will tell, but hopefully the restaurant will maintain that its value

Food quality has deteriorated. Humus was just okay. The Mixed Grill Platter (beef/ chicken) and Chicken Persian Rice both seemed slightly bland, especially the latter. Not as per previous experiences.

Great Food, ambience and service. The food is not so rich or spicy. Well balanced flavors. The menu has a lot to choose from although a bit pricey ...

Loved the location, the atmosphere, the service, and the food, especially the chicken with bones dish. As tender as it gets. Also ask for tahdig (crispy rice).

The AC in the indoor dining area is a bit warm. The waiter who was shouting out orders was too noisy but generally place is good and food is good too

The Sunday buffet is an interesting concept. The food is decent and service is generally good, but definitely would have preferred for a larger list of options and also for food to be served quicker.

Food is nice and ambience is also good. Service from the staffs are good and welcoming. Can recommend friends to come over for a dinner and gathering.

Great food and service.Ambience is super.The Chilli paste given is out of this world. We started in ocetodeb and have introduced so many of our friends. Keep up the great job

The food was great and we enjoyed all that we ordered. They even obliged with a brownie for a birthday treat. The service can be improved though. Cashier took a long time with the payment.

Very helpful and attentive servers! Love the hummus! Easy reservation. We ordered platter for 2 and its definitely worth it! Will definitely come back to this resto!

Excellent service... food really nice. Try to get a table as far as possible from the neighbouring restaurant Brusselssprout for a quiet dinner with friends

Very expensive compared to the quality of service. Wrong dishes brought to table, waiters not welcoming or nice. Food not exceptional. Will not return again.

The food was great as was the service! We will definitely return and recommend this restaurant. The waiters were attentive and very helpful and it was great value for money.

Thefood was Amazing. The service was really great as well! The manager himself ensured all our food was served properly and gave us different recommendations. We were also given complementary dessert.

We had a good time having dinner with our staff. The restaurant served good food and the staff were all friendly. We will surely keep this restaurant in mind for our next company get-together and recommend to others.

Food it's quite overpriced and nothing special, service is fine.

Excellent customer service by the team. Very attentive and good food. Waiting time can be improved given that there were not a lot of people present but overall good experience.

our favorite place to go to! Good food, ambiance and the service is fantastic! The entertainment provided by the restaurant is also good. It makes dining more lively!

Tonight was our 4th time at Shabestan. Each time we have experienced very nice and friendly staff as well as excellent food. Our friend we had invited this evening said - this is the best food I have had in Singapore.

The dinner with the family was to celebrate my Wife's birthday. Overall the location and ambiance were great. The food was outstanding. I am a vegetarian and found that they had enough choice for me :-) The staff were very attentive and even brought out a cake for my wife at the end of the meal. This cake was not the normal simple one like at other restaurants. The cake was small but actually very very good and was one of the highlights of the dinner. The only negative was the loud music during the belly dancing. The staff did apologise for the noise though. Overall a fantastic experience

Very good food, very good meat (lamb, chicken) quality. Yet a bit too expensive. A pity that the bar nearby is a bit too loud too

Great food, prices are a bit high, music needs to be changed

The best place for grill meats Very good curries as well

Excellent choice. You can taste real Persian food in Shabestan restaurant. We were enjoy to spend our time there. Perfect service with tasty Persian food and sides. Yummy...

The food was excellent and the ambience was great. There was entertainment in the form of a belly dancer. IT was easy to make a booking at the restaurant.

Excellent service and amazing food. Has improved a lot from my first visit last year. What else can I say ? Just try it out.

Excellent food and service. Desserts are a must try. Also can host large parties which can be very good. Slightly expensive but the food is totally worth it.

This was our first visit. Liked the ambience but food was little above average. The staff was courteous and offered their suggestions on the menu.

Food is excellent. we chose the mixed appetizers platter and a mix of different kind of meat... They were delicious and perfectly marinated. We will surely be back

Food is awesome, we had a platter of everything and i must say they are perfect (not too dry). the highlight was the starter, soup and OMG the lamb chop is amazing. Perhaps if we decide not to dine indoor - it will be rated 6 (as there was a event on the same evening - abit loud). Service team was prompt and Chef Ying took care of us thru out the evening. She explained the food to us as it was served - nicely done and timed. Wont hesitate to dine there again - for sure !! Thanks Shabestan!!

Was a nice place to eat and a great feeling

Great quality and authentic Persian food. Service was friendly and reasonably efficient. One area to consider improving would be to simplify / redesign the menu structure.

Awesome food Very nice grill the lamb shank was very well cooked The best hummus I have had in Singapore Most of the dishes were good

Excellent food. Must have platter it contain all kind kf meats. Starters are really good as well. Very good ambiance friendly and cooperative staffs. Really enjoyed our dinner.

Best Persoan food, best hospitality, and sexiest belly dancer! I love Shabestan! I will definitely repeat. Good for business dinners. Good for birthday party. Good for dating!

Excellent food. Everything was very authentic and service was attentive as well. The location is also great for various occasions, including date nights. Highly recommended.

The food was nice but we got a shock when we received the bill ...the platter we asked for was only shown in the menu but no pricing against it....and we ended paying more than SGD 600 ...am sure can find better priced places elsewhere. I would not go again

Food was good. Starters were yummy and disappeared fast enough! The platter took quite a while to arrive though....but was worth the wait. Overall good experience.

Shabestan deserves many ******. A Delicious taste of Persian food, great atmosphere, and excellent wine are the winning points. Affordable price and perfect location. Warmly recommending.

Food was fantastic! Authentic persian food with some belly dancing as entertainment. The barley soup was my absolute fav. We will definitely be returning soon.

Excellent service! Ying and team were very accommodating. Food were excellent and great variety. Entertainment of belly dancer was wonderful. Wines were chilled and good.

Really good food, also good service, and a beautiful place. All this at a reasonable price for Singaporean standards (about 60 S$ each). Highly recommended
