Kourosh in Berlin

Absolutely terrible. We ordered it. The meat was even spoiled. It all ended up in the trash.

Very beautiful and elegant from the inside. Attentive service. All five people were very satisfied.

Very good, delicious food. The appetizer platter is highly recommended. Clean restaurant and attentive service.

Very good food. The appetizer platter was very good and varied, as was the grilled meat platter. Everything was very digestible!

Very friendly service. The food was served quickly. We were extremely satisfied.

Highly recommended: really delicious food and very friendly staff. We tried different varieties and everything was delicious… and everything looked so beautiful. We'll definitely be back :)

Absolutely recommended! The food was delicious, the chef was very attentive, and the prices were absolutely reasonable. We'd love to come back!

The food was good, typical Iranian cuisine, the service too, all in all not exceptional, the prices are too high, it's not a place I would return to.

The best Persian food you can experience in Berlin. I'm overjoyed that they've reopened after several months – and in an exceptionally elegant, luxurious, and stylish setting. Truly unique! The staff was also extremely respectful, professional, and accommodating.

Very beautiful environment, friendly and attentive staff Very high quality food🥰

This restaurant has all the positive comments they've picked. I went to them today and got chicken. It's the worst food a restaurant can give a customer. I felt it was my duty to let everyone know.

The price differences are unprofessional and unacceptable. A dish (e.g., kebab koobideh) costs €20 in one app, €16 in another, and only €13 in the restaurant itself. Such differences demonstrate a lack of seriousness – prices must be transparent and consistent!

I was looking for a Persian restaurant in Berlin and Koroush restaurant pop up on google search. From the reviews and photos and ofcourse the name Koroush (Cyrus the great) I said for sure I have to go for lunch here today. As I was walking towards the restaurant I was greeted by the owner MrAhmed. He had a warm smile and very kindly welcomes me to the restaurant. I order Vaziri kebab which is one minced kebab (koobideh) and one chicken kebab ( joojeh). I order non alcoholic beer and mast o mosir ( yogurt eshallots dip). It did not take long before the food has arrived. The aroma and the spices took me to Iran. The food portions were great. large sizes chicken and koobideh with decent amount of rice two tomatos grilled one green pepper and a small portion salad. The food taste great and the food was served hot. I was very impressed by the service and quality of the food at Koroush restaurant. Next time I'm in Berlin I will surely visit Koroush restaurant again. Sposas Kak Ahmed. ❤❤🙏🙏 Thank you. ps: You can reach to Koroush from Alexanderplaz only one station away close walking distance to metro.

Unfortunately, some of the meat was apparently no longer fresh. At least the cancellation went smoothly. It's a shame.

An impressive yet truly cozy ambiance, beautifully designed and lit. The service is very friendly, and you feel warmly welcomed. The food was delicious and served with great sophistication. We enjoyed our evening.

The food was unfortunately disappointing. The quality of the dishes didn't meet my expectations. We had the barg, djujeh, zereshk polo, and baghali polo ba mahicheh. The taste was bland, and the kebab in particular was neither tender nor flavorful. Overall, not a restaurant I would recommend.

The restaurant has a very nice and pleasant atmosphere. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The quality of the food is very good, and I was pleasantly surprised that the food was served so quickly after ordering.

The place to be... great food, lovely ambiance, and very attentive service. We'll be happy to come back.

Super delicious and highly recommended. The hummus was a dream.

Very tasty food with a view of the TV tower, but away from the hustle and bustle of Alexanderplatz. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend a visit to this restaurant.

Really recommend the place excellent Kabab Barg. Super nice and friendly staff. I suggest to put more tomato besides Kebab. Secondly outside the was smell coming from one of the man wholes which I suggest to move the chairs a bit away. But try it out.

the worst restaurant you can go to 👎🏻👎🏻 don’t waste your time and go somewhere else

Delicious Iranian food, worthy of Cyrus the Great. Delicious Iranian food, worthy of Cyrus the Great❤️

We were guests there yesterday. Unfortunately, the food wasn't what we had hoped for. A mixed grill for two people. The meat was sometimes tough, chewy, and not seasoned. The rice wasn't freshly prepared, and the coffee tasted strange. We've found much better in other Persian restaurants, for example. In our own interest, please improve in the future. Also, there are apparently too few menus? At least the service was okay.

Bar was good. Kubideh and Kashmir bademjan very bad. Only one girl was doing everything which I’m not sure it’s even legal and then they billed me in euro and charged me in pounds so I basically paid 50 pounds for one plate of food.

The people were really friendly when we came to the restaurant. All smiles and sweetness from the staff. We recommend the sampler platter for the appetizer. It was stupendous. I could have eaten a full entree of each. My wife had the lamb kebabs and I had the chicken in sauce. Both were excellent and for me the chicken was cooked perfectly and the rice that came with it was buttery and included the crispy bits as I would expect from a Persian restaurant. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Persian restaurant in Berlin! The food was absolutely delicious and full of authentic flavors. The owners and the waitress are incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Lamb chops were delicious and super juicy! Rosè wine was fragrant and served at the right temperature. Friendly staff will explain the dishes to you if you are undecided. Lovely atmosphere and beautiful location, will be back for sure.

I highly recommend this restaurant. The staff is warm and friendly, and the quality and quantity of the food is excellent and delicious. I will be back.

If you want to taste the best tasting Iranian food, you can go here. The lady who takes care of the customers is really kind and caring. The food portion is huge, good quality, price could be better but still not expensive. I like everything about here, also their environment is cool and green

🍴 Delicious, hearty, unforgettable! At Kourosh, it's about more than just good food – it's where great taste, a cozy atmosphere, and friendly service come together. ✨ Try it once – you'll be hooked forever!

Super friendly owners and very tasty food!

Fantastic people and delicious food 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋

We ordered kebab and it was absolutely delicious! The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic Iranian food.

Very bad service, poor quality food, and very high and unusual prices. The worst restaurant experience I've ever had. One hundred negatives from me.

Wonderful Persian restaurant! Kurosh is stylish, clean, and very welcoming. The staff is super friendly, and the food is simply delicious—fresh, authentic, and prepared with love. Everything was perfect. I'll definitely be back!

Absolutely delicious. The staff is very friendly. You feel right at home. 🥰

Best food and best service Revisiting the new restaurant which always delivers the best food, service and finest restaurant.

We shared the starter plate for four people and tried three of the stews. The food is delicious. Each dish in the starter plate and among the stews had a unique taste. The staff was attentive, they made funny jokes in between quick service and gave us good recommendations regarding which stews to pick. All in all a very good experience. Highly recommend.

You can tell they haven't quite gotten used to it yet: without the music, the interior felt like a lifeless hall. The grilled skewers were served without explanation on a separate plate with raw onions and a mountain of fresh herbs, and we didn't immediately understand how it all fit together. We were there with a toddler and had missed a high chair. The service was otherwise pleasant and the food good, if a bit expensive.

Very good food. The three of us went out to dinner in the evening. All the dishes were tasty and nicely presented. Friendly service, and there was an extra dessert.

Delicious food, nice service, they deserve 5 stars. Special thanks to Ahmed. Tareq

Not recommended, I had the worst food of my entire life here, undercooked lamb kebab, hard with a very bad smell, poor quality, leaf kebab was so hard it was inedible, the chicken smelled, all the food was poor quality, unfortunately we got sick after eating the food, don't waste your money. 🤢🤮

Finally, a restaurant in the North Tower at Strausberger Platz again! The food was good, the service unobtrusive but good, including appropriate explanations of the dishes and typical local drinks. We wish the team much success and consider the restaurant a valuable asset.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is not at all cozy. The quality of the food was very poor. The barg and barre had neither taste nor a pleasant aroma—in fact, they smelled unpleasant. The barg was as tough as chewing gum and not at all edible. The djudje and kubide were okay, but not perfect. When the menu says that the rice is served with fragrant saffron, you expect it to be there—both in terms of taste and aroma. Unfortunately, that was not the case at all. The prices are above average compared to other Persian restaurants in Germany, especially for appetizers, side dishes, etc. I cannot recommend this restaurant under any circumstances.

Very clean restaurant, delicious food and excellent service

Delicious food, clean, very good service, and friendly staff. We were very satisfied, will be back, and recommend it to others.

I can say it was one of the best persian Koobideh Kebabs I've eaten in Berlin, unfortunatelly I forgot to take photos but I really recommend it!

The restaurant is really a gem of Stalinist GDR architecture, very elegant and reduced, beautiful, elaborate wall lights, worked marble-like columns in the entrance area of ​​the restaurant, stone floors with inlays, high ceilings, a hall-like guest room. The tables are very elegant, simply set with cutlery, glasses and crockery. The service is very attentive and polite, but my knowledge of German seemed to need a bit of improvement. The owner is very personable and polite, not at all "monitoring" or intrusive, refilled my water twice. The price of the food is borderline reasonable, but the cost of goods is getting more and more expensive and the quality of the lamb fillet and chicken fillet, the incredibly well prepared saffron fragrant rice are definitely worth the money! The mild Persian yogurt with spring onions was delicious but could have been portioned a little more generously for 8 euros... So was the portion of pistachio ice cream as a dessert with 3 clear scoops... Overall, I can only recommend the restaurant "Kourosh" and I wish the owners much success, Karl-Marx-Allee is becoming increasingly difficult for upscale restaurants due to the occupancy policy of the housing association there... I'm hoping for the summer with outdoor dining too! All the best!

Very nice people, super attentive. The food was great. Highly recommended

Very good food and good service. We are tourists from Norway and were super happy with our visit 😀👍

Very nice Iranian restaurant! Very good food and great hospitality from the staff. Clean and nice. If you're going to one Iranian restaurant in Berlin, this is the one!

The restaurant has a great location from every point of view, delicious and tasty food, an excellent work team, and the waitress is extremely kind and friendly, with excellent service.

Tasty and something different than German food. Price is okay and portion is perfect I can only recommend it

We visited this restaurant a few days ago for the first time, and it was truly a great experience. The service was excellent — the waiteress was very polite, kind, and she attentive, checking on us several times throughout our meal. The food was delicious! I highly recommend the Joojeh Soltani — it was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The atmosphere is also lovely, with beautiful Persian artwork on the ceiling that gives the place a unique and memorable vibe. It was a sweet and special experience overall. Definitely recommend it to everyone!

A beautiful and pleasant environment, the pounded kebab and leaves and shashlik were excellent and delicious. I have recommended this restaurant to all my friends and will continue to do so.

Ordered Koubideh, it was too salty. Almost gave up at the middle. The atmosphere was too empty. Feels like eating at a parking lot. Staff were cold and not welcoming. Not to mention the prices. Almost 5€ more than what other Persian restaurants offer. Not recommended.

Very quiet and clean environment and very good access to transportation. Very good and excellent food with very polite staff. Everything was great, thanks to the collection☺️

The atmosphere was cozy and clean and the quality of the food was really excellent. If you want a real Iranian meal with real taste, I recommend this restaurant. Here you will experience not only a pleasant environment but also warm and friendly Iranian hospitality.

Super tasty and unusual dishes and great service! The Ayran was very great

Wir haben uns sehr geärgert. Das Essen, welches teuer ist, hat nach nichts geschmeckt. Es war langweilig und überhaupt nicht gewürzt. Auf die Bitte nach Salz und Pfeffer wurde zögerlich reagiert. Bei der Rechnung wurde das nach nichts schmeckende Gericht auch nicht von der Rechnung genommen. Die Weinschorle, 0,1 kostete 6,90€. Der Eigentümer bzw. seine Partnerin wirkten eher gelangweilt als engagiert. Den Reis der mir runtergefallen ist, habe ich selber weggeputzt. Sehr schade, wir hatten uns so gefreut über ein neues Lokal im Viertel .

Sensationally delicious, authentic Persian food in Berlin!!! We went to Kourosh for lunch on a Sunday. It's a small restaurant with 8 tables. We had the mixed starter platter, Fasenjun and Djuje Soltani as the main course. At the end we had ice cream (Faludeh Bastani). All dishes were without exception delicious and the portions were large enough. The staff was very friendly, almost warm. The only drawback is the space. It has very high ceilings which makes it quite reverberant and unfortunately seems cold. Nevertheless, Kourosh is our new favorite Persian in Berlin. We will definitely eat there more often!

A very polite and kind waitress, offering excellent service alongside delicious and high-quality food. I highly recommend that you experience the exquisite cuisine and outstanding service of this restaurant.

Everything was wonderful. Friendly staff, wonderful hospitality, delicious food. Thank you for your unparalleled service and hospitality.

Food was amazing and the people great! 10/10 would recommend for best persian cuisine experience.

Amazing food and everything was absolutely delightful, also the staff are very welcoming and friendly very hard to find these days, thank you too everyone ❤️

The food was bland and lacked flavor. The meat was chewy and not tender. The service was good and warm, but the prices were high for the quality of the food.

People were nice, but the food was not. Baghalipolo ba Mahiche was dried and not was I knew. Add it the poorest rice I’ve ever had.

Poor food quality. After expressing dissatisfaction with the food, instead of apologizing and trying to satisfy the customer, they started praising themselves and dismissing our opinion as unreasonable. Unprofessional and unfriendly staff. I do not recommend it.

It was the worst food I have eaten in my life. Awful food. Customer service was awful. I ordered a pounded kebab, it had some onions that were completely burnt on top and completely raw inside. It was like chicken meat, the color of the meat was completely white. I hope you never experience this amount of bad quality It was the worst food I ate in my life. Awful food.

Pilarice with dill ! Not great and not possible to pay with card. Cannot really recommend this place

I had Persian food before and this is the most similar to the Persian homemade food. I really liked the Gheyme! Only the saffron tea was not that nice, I was expecting Persian tea with saffron and they served just hot water with saffron inside

Delicious food Diverse menu Friendly staff Clean

The service was great (nice and helpful staffs). However the quality of food was terrible and we absolutely dislike it.

Delicious. Great and super hosts!. We will be back

Very cool, everything is good, nice guy

Authentic and delicous persian foods

The food was really tasty and tasty. The staff were really nice and friendly and it felt like home. We'll definitely come back

the hospitality was great, the food was great! the best Persian restaurant I have visited in Germany so far :)

Very tasty food and hospitable host. It was great.

We had Kubideh and Fesnenjon, it was delicious and the portion size was generous. For drink we tried Dugh, there was some tasty stuff in too. Overall we had a pleasant experience there.

Thank you for the lovely evening - there were 6 of us guests and we were treated to mixed starters and a sensational grilled platter - and our vegans were also taken into consideration. Great food, great service - insider tip!

We celebrated our daughter's first birthday there with family and were more than satisfied. The owner and his team were always warm, service-oriented and very professional. All of our wishes were implemented and all of our guests were thrilled. We can warmly recommend this great family restaurant. The food was also very delicious! Always my pleasure!

Very nice atmosphere and very nice restaurateurs. Food tasted very good. A small cozy Persian oasis :)

Of course I feel home when I’m there. The food are so good 😊 try the ice cream.

Highly recommended, super tasty, perfect service, small, fine restaurant, simply great

Unfortunately I can't recommend the restaurant at all. We ordered food to pick up today and when we get home we see that the Kubides aren't cooked through at all.

The cuisine didn't feel fresh, lacked flavor, and the portion sizes didn't justify the high prices.

Een klein restaurantje, maar erg druk. Blij dat we hadden gereserveerd. Aardige bediening. Goed om te merken dat behalve toeristen, ook de mensen met een ‘Perzische’ culturele achtergrond het restaurant waarderen. Heerlijk gegeten! Aanrader!

God och prisvärd persisk mat kan rekommenderas. Grillspettet var välsmakande, trevlig liten familjerestaurangen.

Sehr leckeres authentisches Essen. Nicht ganz billig, aber alles frisch zubereitet und ansprechend angerichtet.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Vom Essen her kann ich nur sagen eine Geschmacksexplosion ,einfach lecker 😋

I can't recommend there enough!!! Super nice staff and delicious food. Cozy and calm place.

Eine sehr leckere Küche, der Chef ist sehr aufmerksam und kann sich von einer großen Gruppe die Bestellung von jedem ohne aufschreiben merken. Klasse.

Klein, fein und mit Liebe geführtes Restaurant. Danke für den tollen Lunch.

Wir haben mit unseren Freunden das kleine persische Restaurant "Kourosh" in Berlin getestet und vergeben mit Freude 5 Sterne aus folgendem Grund: Als Feinschmecker haben wir überraschenderweise folgende Punkte dort sehr positiv erleben dürfen. An erster Stelle: Das Personal war sehr freundlich und nett! (Wichtig) Zuerst der Tee: Der Safran-Tee war ein echter Hammer. Excellent! 👍 Vorschlag: Vielleicht mit einem Nabat servieren; schmeckt besser als nur mit Zucker und wirkt sehr edel. Vorspeisen: Die Vorspeisen haben sehr gut geschmeckt! (Kashke Bademjoon + Mirza Ghasemi) Grill: Wir waren mit der Qualität der gegrillten Kebabs sehr glücklich, war auf den Punkt genau! Fleisch war gute Qualität & sehr zart. Hauptspeise servieren: Der Teller war warm und der Reis war heiß serviert (sehr wichtig). Gerichte: Bei den Gerichten (Ghormesabzi, Fesenjan, Gheymeh, Chelo Mahiche) war NICHT typisch traurig oder leblos, SONDERN war absolut perfekt! hervorragend ✅ Von Portionserinnerung: muss ich sagen, wir waren alle Ordentlich Satt & glücklich!✅ Man konnte erkennen, dass der Chefkoch grandiose Gerichte leidenschaftlich zaubert. Weiter so 👍 Eis: Die Nachspeise war Safran-Eis und war nicht blass, sondern richtig intensiv safranorange. Das war mit Abstand das beste Safran-Eis, das ich je in Berlin gegessen habe. Preiskategorie: Ich finde die Preise bei dieser Qualität absolut in Ordnung 👍 Also, ein kleines Restaurant, aber lasst euch nicht täuschen! Die Küche kann wirklich grandioses Essen mit höchster Qualität anbieten: Frische Zutaten & gute Fleischqualität. PS: Wir werden euch gerne sehr oft besuchen kommen! Diese Bewertung kann bei Unzufriedenheit wieder geändert oder ergänzt werden. Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Sehr lecker und super freundlich. Wir hatten ein wenig das Gefühl bei der Familie des Inhabers Zuhause zum Essen einladen zu sein. Das Essen wirkte authentisch und uns wurden zu jedem Gang die typischen Gepflogenheiten erklärt.

Es war lecker, der Service sehr nett. Klein und gemütlich. Wir kommen wieder.

The food was so delicious and fresh, and the service and staff were great too and friendly

Es war ein toller Abend, bei tollem service und gutem essen. Es war uns allen ein Fest und uns wurde die persische Küche sehr nahe gebracht und erklärt. Vielen Dank dafür.
