I had such a wonderful experience at Ravagh Persian Grill in Manhattan. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and authentically prepared. The service was outstanding, and the hospitality from the manager, Moises Marin, made the evening even more special. He was warm, attentive, and truly went above and beyond. One of the best Persian meals and overall dining experiences I’ve had in NYC. Highly recommend!

Delicious dinner! Sultani kabobs, beef stew, and traditional kahsk bademjan were perfect. All the waiters, especially Berk, were friendly and had great recommendations. Will definitely return!

We checked this place out after hearing amazing reviews from our friends. Berk was our server and he was so knowledgeable and attentive to our likes and dislikes. We ordered a kabob and a stew- both portions were enormous and he even offered us different sauces since it was our first time here. Then we got the chocolate lava cake which was absolutely to die for. We’re literally gonna be back here next weekend. I can’t say enough good things about the food- it was so flavorful and the stew was super tender!

I called and ordered Khoobideh Kebab to go around 4:30 pm on Thursday. I was told that my order would be ready in 25-30 minutes. My order was ready within the time frame. I paid and was given a bag, which contained my order plus side salad, pita bread and utensils. The rice was fluffy and khoobideh tasty. I would try eating in next time.

I was in Manhattan for business and had dinner at Ravagh Persian Grill. I ordered the barg kabab with mast-o-mosir, and it was outstanding the meat was tender, flavorful, and easily one of the best I’ve had. The side rice was perfectly cooked and the yogurt dip added a nice balance. The restaurant itself is very clean and has a comfortable, slightly upscale feel without being over the top. Service was smooth and the food came out fresh. Portions are generous, and you can tell everything is prepared with care. If you’re in the city and craving authentic Persian food, Ravagh is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be back on my next trip to Manhattan.

It was my first time Persian meal. From the moment we walked in, the hostess welcomed us with a genuine smile and seated us right away. The staff was attentive, always making sure we had water and checking in at the perfect times, creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. I ordered the dark meat chicken kebabs, which came with half zeresh rice and half grill vegetables — the spices were incredible and the portion was generous. To finish, we shared Persian ice cream, baklava, and special Persian tea, which was the perfect sweet ending to the meal. Between the delicious food and the thoughtful service!!!, I would gladly return to this restaurant again! See you soon!

If you enjoy exploring different cuisines, Persian cuisine should definitely be on your list. I’d recommend ordering the meat medium, and the rice options are generally quite well done. In my opinion, this place is the right address for some of the best Persian food in town! Chef’s recommendation!!you won’t regret it!

I liked Ravagh because of its high quality food, great taste, and good vibes. We have dad a Combination Kabob which portion size was enough for two to three people. The whole fish was so tasty. All staffs were kind and respectful. This place is highly recommended.

For persian food, Ravagh I’m Roslyn, is the best in Long Island. The food is delicious, The staff friendly and accommodating with excellent service.

Great place for persian food. The Babaganoosh and Kashk bademjan were great. as was the shirazi salad. The lamb chops and lamb kabob were amazing - cooked perfectly.

Good abundant food at good price. The bread was wonderful and, tho noisy, the setting was great. Service excellent. I would return

Our server Antony was fantastic and attentive! we really enjoyed the chai and baklava! the kashke badjemjan was the best i ever had. the kabob soltani was a bit chewy and the taste wasn’t the best. the joojeh kabob breast was a bit dry but delicious. the maste mousir was not at all good.

Went there for lunch whilst visiting New York. As I walked in to the restaurant at around 1:20PM on a Wednesday, the restaurant was bit busy. I was standing by the entrance for 5 mins until someone saw me and then I was seated. Menu was given straight away. I made my decision within 2 mins on what I'm going to order but it took over 10mins for me to grab someone to take the order. This was order for 1 person only. It took 45mins for the food to arrive. Customer can be better if they are more attentive and speak nicely. Food was nice and fresh. One other thing I don't understand is why waiters get a bit iffy if I decide not to leave a tip. Sorry your service wasn't good. I had to call you so many times to take my order, then ETA on when the food is coming and then had to chase again for the bill several times. You guys are lucky I'm a nice person and don't like any arguments so left 20% tip.

Good quality persian kebab. I had their Sultani kebab and liked the koobideh skewer more than the barg side. Overall it's average quality for a persian food restaurant. Price is similar to other persian restaurants

Behrooz Mansouri

It was an amazing place! The food was great, although the koobideh can improve and joojeh can have boneless option. Service was good, maybe bathroom line was a bit long

Sadia Awan

To noisy restaurant. Staff is very friendy and cooperative. Tasty is yummy. If you want halal food it will be best choice.

Ravagh is our go-to restaurant in the NYC/NJ area whenever we’re craving really good Persian food. We always start with the kashk bademjan — the meal never feels complete without it. Some of my favorite dishes are the chicken koobideh kebab with zereshk polo, and my all-time favorite is the khoresh gheymeh. It’s incredibly flavorful, and I love that they add those little fresh potato sticks on top (some places skip them, which makes me sad!). The fesenjan is also amazing. The only reason why I didn’t give it a perfect score is because my chicken was overdone and dry once, but they’ve made up for it the next time I visited Don’t forget to try the Persian martini — sooo good! The service is always fast and friendly, and the ambiance is warm and inviting. I love this place and have been coming here for years. Definitely try out ravagh if you’re in a mood for some good Persian food

Ravagh has good food but, as far a the kebabs are concerned, it is not very authentic Persian food. The staff was kind and welcoming. The lamb chops were exceptionally tender and good.

The place is overpriced for the quality and quantity of food you get. We went there on Saturday night - worst time. The kitchen was overwhelmed. The service was marginal. Overall not impressed….. they added 20% service charge. Candidly, they don’t deserve 1% The restaurant management is dysfunctional. They need to do better job managing reservations and add Real Persians food items….. humus is NOT

If you are Black, stay away from here or else you'll be shown the door as we were. They kicked us out, saying the restaurant was closed, but people were still eating and it was only 8, even though they close at 11pm. So we didn't sweat it we left and ate at the Shah's next door. Great food there btw. About half an hour later, I happened to walk past here, and it was still open with different people eating and being served. No coincidence.

From beginning to end, our experience at this restaurant was a mess. We had an 8:30 PM reservation but were told to wait outside because our table wasn’t ready. We weren’t seated until almost 9 PM 30 minutes late because the previous guests hadn’t left yet. Honestly, what’s the point of making a reservation if they can’t honor it? Once inside, the atmosphere was off. There was bugs on the walls, which was really unsettling and made it hard to feel comfortable. Then came the food… or should I say, the lack of flavor. Everything tasted bland, like they forgot the salt and seasoning altogether. And for how expensive it was, I expected much better quality. Overall, I wouldn’t go back. Disappointing on every level.
