Babam in Frankfurt am Main

Super delicious! We had an eggplant starter and sandwiches. The fresh bread is the best 🤩

We visited the restaurant for the first time and opted for Kebab Koobideh. Unfortunately, the kebab was extremely disappointing – it was neither flavorful nor juicy. It tasted almost exclusively of onions, as if it were made entirely of onions. The surprise, however, came with the bill: We had ordered a mixed starter plate, the menu of which stated "from 2 people" for €10.50. The price seemed like it was for two people. But when the bill arrived, we suddenly had to pay €21! When we asked, they explained that the price was per person. So we ended up paying the price of a main course for something that wasn't even a full meal!

We visited this restaurant for the first time and ordered kebab koobideh. Honestly, in all my years in Germany, I've never eaten such a tasteless and watery kebab. It tasted almost exclusively of onions, as if it were made entirely of onions. And then came the surprise: We also ordered a mixed starter plate, which the menu rather unclearly stated was for two people or more, with a price of €10.50. It looked like that was the total price for two people. But in the end, we were charged €21! When we asked, they simply said, 'Yes, that's per person.' :/ So we essentially paid the price of a main course—for something that wasn't even a proper meal!

Everything was really great. The food was amazing, the service was great!

Preis Leistung stimmt nicht überein . Habe für 2 Speisen mit Trinkgeld ohne Getränke 80 Euro bezahlt . Kebab war trocken und der Reis mehr als Kebab. Bestelle nicht mehr online da 10 Euro für die Lieferung verlangt wird und das Essen immer kalt ankommt .

Best Persian food I have ever eaten. The service is very attentive and friendly. Very good value for money. We'd love to come back!

Chicken almost fell off the bone. Super delicious! Nice service.

Very tasty Persian food. Service was great. The restaurant itself doesn't invite you to linger for a long time, as it is very loud and somewhat uncomfortable. I can still highly recommend it.

Had Persian food for the first time today, it tasted great. I will definitely recommend it!

Ate Persian for the first time and discovered this restaurant by chance, absolutely loved it and will definitely become a regular here. Braised lamb was ordered, of incredible quality, beautifully decorated, appealing to every taste bud imaginable, with grilled vegetables (aubergine) and yoghurt dressing, plus lots of fresh herbs. The entire staff is attentive, extremely friendly and personable, excellent advice. 100 percent recommended!!!

Delicious food, friendly, professional service, good value for money. I had delicious lamb with eggplant and sauce, my girlfriend had a grilled skewer. It comes without sauce and is too dry for my taste. I would like seat cushions on the very hard chairs.

Everything OK Keller super accommodating. Gladly again.

“I had a great experience! The food was very fresh, delicious, and high-quality. The staff was extremely friendly and respectful. The atmosphere was calm and perfect for enjoying a meal. I highly recommend it!”

Paid 18€ for this dish BADEMJAN Dish with pieces of lamb leg meat and eggplant 2 small pieces of lamb and 6 pieces of eggplant in plates 1 eggplant costs 79 cents. Very sad, I spoke to the waiter and was told I would pass it on to the chef

Fue una buena experiencia para nosotros como familia. La comida llegó rápido y nos dieron un aperitivo gratis, así que es agradable. El personal era agradable.

Everything I had was good. I wouldn’t order the dolmeh or the lemonade. The soltani and the tea at the end are very nice. I shouldn’t forget the great service I had thanks to the amazing workers at the restaurant.

It's one of the best halal foods in Frankfurt, especially there Sultani is excellent 👌 😋

It tastes so delicious - we recommend a) sharing and trying as much as possible and b) coming back!

We had an appetizer platter and a stew with lamb and beans. In terms of taste, all of the dishes were a highlight and the spices in the braised dish in particular were exceptionally perfectly balanced.

Very expensive, not worth recommending…

The most delicious lamb in Germany! Excellent fast service, I order kebab, it’s the bomb!) and inexpensive)

Great food but the ice cream was awful, it was refrozen and tasted really bad.

The best Persian in town, I'll be happy and full here. The bread here is homemade, People joke and laugh here. Last but not least, a stew, melts in your mouth - what a poem!

I had a pleasant lunch at Babam in Frankfurt. The kashek bademjan was flavorful, with a nice balance of smoky eggplant and creamy yogurt. For the main dish, the kubideh was well-cooked, tender, and nicely spiced. The rice was light and paired well with the grilled tomato. The atmosphere was casual, and the service was friendly. Overall, it was a solid meal, nothing extraordinary, but definitely enjoyable. I’d return for a relaxed and satisfying lunch.

Good things: - staff are kind - starter and freshly baked bread is nice - they serve fast - prices are reasonable Not good things: - the decoration of restaurant is not nice at all. There is even a sink inside the eating hall to wash the hands. Very strange - the fillet kebab meat was very smelly. - location is not nice

Love the food. This will be my 1st choice whenever I would travel to Frankfurt.

A restaurant recommended by a local (German food is not delicious, so he recommended me to eat Persian food 🤣) Good when you want to try different food during a long trip

Fresh bread and delicious Persian food. The atmosphere and service are great. A really nice place to dine.

Not for Pakistani people's taste. Bad experience.

There is always bread delivered to the table. The portions are plentiful and tasty. Even the rice itself is good.

We dined here with a larger group. Unfortunately, the lamb was not seasoned well at all, so the pungent taste of the lamb was very strong. Other Persian restaurants are much better in this regard. However, the chicken skewers and rice tasted good. The homemade lemonade didn't taste good at all. It was slightly bitter (because it contained grapefruit) and we didn't like the slight rose note either. That's why I'd rather go for Persian food somewhere else in Frankfurt...

We ordered Kubideh and it tasted really good! However, the onions in the kebab were a bit roughly chopped so you could feel them when chewing. The staff was very friendly and the overall atmosphere was pleasant. However, the menu displayed on Google is not up to date - the prices in the restaurant are higher. For example, the Kubideh costs 20 euros here, although it is listed as 17 euros on Google. The saffron rice was very tasty. Overall it was a positive experience that I can recommend!

This restaurant is truly the best Persian restaurant in Frankfurt. The friendly atmosphere and the hospitable attitude of the employees were extremely impressive. Everything was just perfect

Wow... We were here at lunchtime. Simply delicious and authentic. Will definitely come back. The homemade bread is one of my highlights. Price performance 1+

Very good service and super tasty Persian dishes. Highly recommended.

The best Iranian food I have tasted!

Very tasty food and friendly staff

I can rate the food as good and service as satisfactory (although the staff was nice, but unfortunately I completely forgot to bring the soup as a starter) but the place and ambience were unfortunately poor and tasteless.

We went here for a quick dinner. They allowed us in with a small well behaved Jack Russell. The staff are friendly, attentive and professional. We really enjoyed the food, you can taste the quality of the ingredients

A great canteen with gluten-free dishes (the falafel salad and hummus plate in particular)

Very good kubbideh. I'm looking forward to other dishes.

Fantastic food and a great staff! I went for lunch and had the Ash Reshte, Fesenjoon, and Dudje kabab. Their fresh lavash bread is great. All of it was perfectly cooked and the portions were more than enough for all three of us. Their house made saffron drink was amazing as well, one of a kind! One of my absolute favorite spots in Frankfurt!

Excellent... Share your plates to get a variety of amazing flavours

Excelente cocina en un entorno informal. Nos quedamos tan impresionados que pasamos dos noches seguidas! Nos gustaron especialmente los aperitivos mixtos y el pollo en una brocheta con arroz. Servicio amable, servicial y bastante razonable. Muy recomendable!

It was our first time there, I had fesinjan stew with rice , my sister had meat and rice The food was very good , however we felt it was overpriced, we paid ~€70 for two people for only two main courses and two non alcoholic drinks

The food and service were excellent, although the portions were too large. But when I paid by credit card I was supposed to pay a large tip. This may be common in the USA. In Europe the staff should be paid properly! So the management disappointed me in the end.

Good Iranian restaurant in Frankfurt. I have been a few times there and the food has always been good. Fresh bred is available and the service is good.

The restaurant is centrally located in Frankfurt between the main train station and the theater. The furnishings are functionally modern but give the impression of a snack bar and fast food restaurant. But the prices are more like those for a normal restaurant. (hence the ambience deductions). Food was good. I'm not a specialist in Persian cuisine, but I found a minced lamb skewer with rice where the rice was very, very dry without any sauce.

Tasty, fair price, shared starter for 2 excellent value

Simply wonderful food!!! Fresh, prepared with detail and really tasty. We want to come back.

This is above average persian resturant in frankfurt. The was much better around 6 month ago.

Authentic and fantastic service

KhoshMazeh is expensive and nothing

Great Persian food from the appetizers to the deserts. The kabobs are juicy and the rice is delicious. The service is also great. Great option for halal Persian food in Frankfurt.

Babam is a very good Persian restaurant in the heart of Frankfurt. We had several eggplant appetizers and the salad which were all very good. The homemade bread and pickles we're incredible. Draft beer and wine options on the menu. I had chicken dish, shirin polo ba morgh and it was very good and generous portions. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Fuimos allí con colegas para cenar. La comida era muy sabrosa y apta también para vegetarianos y sin gluten. El equipo fue amable.

Fresh warm bread, a very tasty appetizer platter and two dishes that tasted so different than anything we had ever eaten. And in an absolutely positive sense. 100% recommendation.

Delicious food and tidy work, thanks

I love this place! The food is amazing, nice homemade bread and their aubergine dip is soo good! Also very friendly staff and a cosy atmosphere. Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed the dinner, especially the kabab kubide and the barg, the service is very good and friendly, I recommend you to try it👌🏻👌🏻😋

It was very good. Actually, as always. We had two lamb shanks, a chicken skewer and a vegetarian dish. Everything perfect! The service is great too!

An unforgettable culinary experience! Each bite transports us directly to Iran thanks to authentic, delicate cuisine full of flavors. Saffron, almond, orange and many other spices are used with a finesse that delights the taste buds. Special mention for the homemade bread, which is simply divine! The ambiance and service add to the experience, making this place warm and welcoming. An essential address for those looking to travel without leaving Frankfurt. Well done to the whole team!

I ate there last Friday. The main course was very good, but the mini salad without salt and oil was disappointing and far too expensive for €7. Prices generally too high. Nevertheless, I can recommend it.

Very friendly staff and delicious food.

I didn’t realise how good this restaurant was until we went there. Lovely fresh flavours, helpful friendly staff, good range of choices for vegetarians. The freshly made flat bread is amazing.

Authentic Persian cuisine with super-friendly service. Always happy 😊

Classic Persian cuisine. Really good service at that.

Authentic Persian cuisine with super-friendly service. An absolute recommendation!

I was on vacation visiting some friends in Frankfurt, Needed to do some shopping before going back to my friends, When I ran into this place I felt nostalgic, And I also had to admit, it felt good to be able to use my Farsi to talk to people, because every time I tried to speak German nothing came out of my throat, The food and drinks were nice and it really brought be back on a trip of memory lane eating the food my parents would make or hearing stories from when my parents lived in Iran.

Prices raised. Food very tasty!

Great service, very tasty food. Highly recommended. Gladly again

Everything is good. The food is good. I advise Iraqis and Arabs to buy kebab from him. It is called Aderna Kebab. Its price is 18 euros, but it is amazing and the ayran milk is good. Everything is good.

Gran experiencia, buena comida y gran servicio. Tenemos que esperar unos 20 minutos para conseguir una mesa, pero eso era comprensible, y vale la pena esperar. La comida era deliciosa, porción generosa, personal atento. Gracias.

Fast service, very tasty cuisine.

Excellent Persian (Iranian) restaurant, the food is fresh and delicious They serve hot and fresh bread The service is excellent and the staff are highly efficient I highly recommend it

An amazing find in central Frankfurt, close to the business district. Delicious food, excellent service and clearly a kitchen that knows how to cook! We had the starters plate, the lemonade and the Bademjan; one with aubergines and the other with lamb. Everything was excellent. Loved the presentation and the small gestures of generous lime/ lemon, cheese and garnishes. Will definitely visit them, next time I'm in Frankfurt.

Overpriced, hair found in the food. 3 stars for the food. But staff was friendly.

The kebab here is simply fantastic – juicy, flavorful and perfectly cooked. The meat quality is top, the spices harmonize perfectly and the portions are generous. The side dishes such as fresh vegetables and fluffy bread were also delicious. The staff was friendly and the service was quick. If you're looking for a really good kebab, you've come to the right place. I'll definitely be back!”

Super delicious food and very friendly service. Good price-performance ratio. Worth it❤️

Ambience chic. The homemade bread was so delicious. Homemade lemonade as well. The skewers were delicious, but the rice was unfortunately dry. Still a great restaurant.

The Persian food tastes very tasty. We really got to know it five years ago at BABAM. Since then, however, portions have become smaller and prices have risen significantly.

Fantastic food and service. Tried out Persian food after a very, very long time. Was so happy we came here. The bread with cheese, herbs and the mint chutney was fabulous. The kababs were so tender and tasty, yummy. The meat curry with rice was flavorful and tender. Loved it. Wish we had more time here to try more dishes. Despite it being a rush time, packed with customers, the servers were genuinely helpful and very nice.

Wir zu dritt dort. Leider war es wieder extrem laut. Finde das Preis/Leistung passt nicht. Im Ingwer Minze Tee waren drei dünne Scheiben Ingwer. Der Falafel Humus Teller ist stark Ausbaufähig.

Hospitality! Great ambience, sumptuous dishes - gladly again!

Very tasty, authentic cuisine, lovely service. Lively, happy atmosphere. And I ordered a portion of the torshi to take home. The only downer: Please get a lighting designer to do the lighting! The price at 62 Eu for 2 people was very reasonable. See you soon!

Food was really good 👍🏻 recommended.

Really delicious food and very friendly staff. I would say that it was the best Persian food that I tried lately. I would recommend 5/5

The food was good but not for that price one ghormesabzi with zeiton about 30 euro

Service very nice and polite, food good and tasty. Fresh bread and delicious herbs and cheese as greetings from the kitchen taste very tasty. Very warm, generous and polite staff. Great and completely satisfied.

Compared to other Iranian restaurants, the food is more expensive but of poorer quality. The rice = fat!

Highly recommendable Persian restaurant! Well and centrally located, easy to reach via public transport (ÖPNV). Delicious food, fast delivery and friendly staff.

Had dinner here one evening while in Frankfurt. The aubergine and lamb stew and sesame bread were very tasty, although the stew was a little salty. Prices were reasonable and the service was very good. As other reviews have said, the ambience is not as good - it has more of the ambience of a fast food restaurant. Would recommend to someone who is staying close by, but wouldn’t necessarily go back.

Great cuisine, nice staff...recommended

Everything is special. In my opinion, it is the best restaurant in Frankfurt. My favorite restaurant. First-class cooking

Very very delicious One of the best restaurants I tried in Germany

Delicious food but unfortunately very expensive when compared to other Persian restaurants in Frankfurt.

I was surprised at how delicious the sandwich was (with yogurt, chilli sauce, great mix of vegetables). Employees are friendly and quick. Dessert (rice pudding) was also great (tasty and decorative). Water, cola, tea, 2 sandwiches + a dessert: 43 EUR, I think that's great too.

Incredibly delicious - highly recommended!

I recently visited Babam, and I can confidently say it’s the best Iranian food I’ve had in Europe! The bread, freshly made in their oven, is absolutely delicious and pairs perfectly with their dishes. They also serve noon va paneer va sabzi, which was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Every bite was a true taste of Iran. The staff were incredibly friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, creating the perfect setting for a great meal. I would return to Frankfurt just to dine here again. Highly recommended!

Don’t go there when you’re starving… service is slow which is a also a sign of fresh cooking
