Saadi Cafe’ & Restaurant کافه رستوران سعدی in Berlin

A fantastic atmosphere with a charming team. Based on a recommendation, we had a truly delicious meal and had a wonderful time there. We can only recommend it!

The food quality was acceptable, but the prices were high compared to the service and location of the restaurant.

The food was so-so even though the waiter posted that they have the best kebab in Berlin. Quite boring restaurant with old furniture and small space with expensive food

If you are looking for an authentic Persian dining experience, Saadi is truly a gem. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted with warm hospitality that makes you feel at home. The atmosphere blends elegance with comfort, reflecting the rich culture of Iran. The food is nothing short of exceptional. The kebabs are juicy and perfectly seasoned, The service is attentive without being intrusive, and the staff are happy to explain dishes if you’re unfamiliar with Persian cuisine. Prices are very fair for the quality and quantity you receive. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again! Thanks to zohreh khnoom & Agha Reza

It felt like we were back home. Received great service and constant attention to our table for whatever we needed. Very refreshing night and meal here. Highly recommend to anyone who wants any type of food not just Persian, because it’s that’s good.

Everything was simply fantastic! From the truly delicious food to the warm welcome from the owner. We'd love to come back.

It was close on Tuesday at 12:30!

Excellent service and food quality Just one spelling mistake: Khoresh is correct - not khorsht Like sports, dialect, travel

Amazing food and staff. The service was quick!! 🍽️

Great restaurant with high quality food and warm atmosphere

Very tasty and friendly service

Here you will get a good Persian dish and a fine Persian hospitality

A truly lovely ambiance with excellent, authentic Persian food. My partner is Persian, and we had a wonderful evening there. The service was super friendly and made us feel like we were at mom's house. We'll be back.

Had a great experience at this Persian restaurant. The saffron rice was absolutely delicious, and the Djudje (sharf) and Ghaliyeh Meygoo (sharf) were both really flavorful. Cozy ambience and great service.

A wonderfully warm evening with great, friendly service and delicious food. Thank you very much!

High quality and authentic food experience. Very kind and genuine service as well!

Absolutely first-class for anyone who appreciates fine and authentic Iranian cuisine. Simply delicious!

Food is really good, tasty and fresh. I think they can improve the fresh air in the restaurant.

Food is delicious, Service is very nice and kind. Gave us also recommendations. We dined as a group of my friends. A family running this place and this place has that family atmosphere.

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance and didn't think much of it. But we were surprised. The owner was super friendly and gave us good recommendations. I ordered the shrimp with rice and a delicious sauce. The dish was outstanding. Someone else also ordered the lamb shank, which was also incredibly tender and delicious. I can recommend this restaurant to anyone! The prices are reasonable, ranging from €20-30. Absolutely fantastic!

as a group of five ambitious foodies we stumbled upon this cute, lovely n cozy Persian family owned restaurant where we deliciously filled our hangry moods with a bunch of different dishes at dinner time; tried nr. 21

Super delicious food and really friendly service!

Great persian food and fantastic service!

Can highly recommend - we tried many dishes and appetisers and they were all very tasty!

Very tasty meat! Fragrant rice and an incredibly kind host! Worth the visit 😊 the dips and olive salad are great

We ordered Joojeh Kabab، Kabab with pomegranate molasses, Gheimeh with eggplant, cucumber yogurt salad, and Shirazi salad everything was absolutely delicious and beyond amazing! The staff were very polite, and the overall atmosphere was very pleasant and satisfying. Definitely a place worth visiting again!

We went as a group of 10 but the experience was still super personal, the dishes all arrived at the same time. Super warm and fresh. One of the best Iranian food I’ve had in europe. Highly recommended: Kebab Koubideh, Baghali polo with lamb shank, Ghormeh Sabzi and Ghaliye Mahi (which was delightfully sour and spicy as it should be) We all left feeling like we had the best food we’ve had in a while!!

My wife and I have been eating there for four years and are always thrilled with the kebabs or the rice dishes with stews. The Iranian Akbar Mashti ice cream for dessert is fantastic! Well then, enjoy!

everything perfect. loved the food and it felt like being home. highly recommend this place

We tried different dishes at this restaurant. All the dishes were served hot and of excellent quality. The staff was very warm and friendly and had a very good attitude. Overall it was a great experience and I definitely recommend visiting this restaurant if you have the chance.

The best food I tried this year! The staff was really nice and the service was fantastic! Definitely recommend!!!

Thank you so much ,,nice foood nice atmposher,nice service defo will be back there again.

I've been eating Persian food weekly for 10 years in many different restaurants in different cities. Saadi has been the best so far.

Food was not good and not authentic

The staff and the restaurant environment were great. It was very beautiful, but the food really wasn't. I have never given a negative review to my countrymen in my life. But this is no joke. Unfortunately, two hours after the meal, we all felt sick, as if there was leftover food. I couldn't eat my own food. It was baqali pilaf and chicken, which was really bad. I'm not a picky eater, but it really tasted bad. The olives were very good. The other dishes, namely kubideh and sour kebab, were delicious, according to my friends, but we got sick. This is not an issue that I don't want to say and I won't leave a negative comment. I feel good now and I'm also the mother of a baby and I have to take care of the baby. For example, we went out to eat, which I wish we hadn't gone. Now, someone just has to take care of us. I don't recommend this restaurant because of the leftover food and poisoning, and I will definitely report it.

The food was visually appealing, but taste-wise, it was not good. There was very fatty Kubideh and oily rice. The Djujeh was not properly salted and didn't taste good. The Torsh Djuje was also bad. Worst of all, it is a cash-only establishment.

The Food was absolutely delicious. We had koubide with rice and we really enjoyed our food. So far the best Persian Food in Berlin

The restaurant is really good! This is my second time there. The food is heavenly!

A really good and family run Persian restaurant. Hope they keep it up 👍

Very nice service, great food, we will be back

My boyfriend and I visited the place during our trip to Berlin. My boyfriend wanted Iranian food, so we found the place on google and decided to give it a try. ▪︎Atmosphere: The restaurant decoration and layouts are quite nice. I like the music the owner puts in the background. Makes it feel very warm and cozy. ▪︎Food: We ordered the Koobideh (mince meat kebab with rice), Barg (flat grill meat) and Mastes musir (yogurt with garlic). I am a fan of all grilled meat so for me this was like a treat. My mince meat very juicy, tasted very well with the rice. My Iranian also approved the taste of his Barg. The portion is very big, I think if you can not eat a lot then you can order one plate to share. I could not finish mine, we could take it away. ▪︎Service: The owner was very welcome. When we came the place was crowded but she made sure we did not have to wait too long. ▪︎Parking: There is street parking nearby and you have to pay for it. ♡In sum up, I think it was a good experience we had. We both think we would definitely come back if we have chance and would recommend it to people.

Everything perfect in this place! Excellent food, exceptional service! I always enjoy going there! ✅

I ate Persian food for the first time since I came from Iran and it was very delicious

Had two delicious meals at this fantastic restaurant. The food was consistently excellent but more importantly, this place makes you feel like you’ve been invited to a family home. Make sure you bring cash and order the chicken!

A lovely experience all around! Could not recommend more!

This is truly the best kebab you can get among Persian restaurants! All the dishes are of high quality and simply delicious. The service is very friendly and attentive. Once you've eaten here, you'll never forget the taste!🥰🤗❤️

The main courses were delicious and the service was friendly. On the other hand, they were out of desserts on Friday at 6 pm, and you couldn't pay by card.

Simply great again and again 👌😍😍😍😍

Very very tasty and above all friendly!

We were a group of Iranians and we loved the food we ate. The portions were very generous and the food was tasty and authentic! Highly recommended. We will come back!

Very fresh and delicious food. Am saying this as an Iranian who loves and is very peaky about iranina cuisines and its delicate taste. Totally recommend it.

The food is a dream 🙏👍🤗👌. You shouldn't miss it. Thank you for the great service and the delicious food. We'd love to come back. We even came from Hamburg 😀

The food was absolute perfection! You can experience Persian hospitality at its finest and the top quality food. Therefore, the food is worth the price and you definitely want to go back there again! 5/5

Unfortunately, I was not at all satisfied with the meal. The meat in the kabab koobideh was still raw inside and lacked a typical flavor—more like anything else, but not like real koobideh. The rice was also hard and undercooked. After eating, I felt nauseous; my stomach was acting up, and I felt physically unwell. I cannot recommend this dish—and unfortunately, the restaurant, either.

I'll be completely honest. The food just wasn't good at all. If you're really hungry and just want to fill yourself up, then fine. But I didn't like it at all. The kebab even tasted like potato, how can that be?! I thought the decor of the shop was really cool, but my kebab and rice were the exact opposite.

Absolutely delicious. All good stuff. A big selection on the menu I can absolutely recommend this restaurant. A very large selection of dishes. Absolutely nice owners of the restaurant. And the taste of the offered appetizers and main courses is really excellent. I can absolutely advise this kitchen. This restaurant is small but really fine. The dishes are tasty.

The most delicious Iranian food...the kind behavior of the host...I suggest they play local and authentic Iranian music...and that they include herbal drinks such as rose water, mint, and spring orange, which are popular drinks in Iran, on their drinks menu.

Very tasty Persian national dishes and extremely friendly and generous service

Excellent! It tasted like grandma's!

The food was really excellent! The meat from the kabab in particular was incredibly tender and delicious. The Baghali polo was also very tasty. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The music was pleasant, appropriate and very relaxing. The only small negative point: the chairs had no backrest, which was a bit uncomfortable. But overall, absolutely recommended – definitely try it out!

We often go out for Persian food and we actually come from Munich. But we have never seen a restaurant like this before. The food is amazing. Without comparison. There's nothing like that anywhere else. Be sure to order the saffron lemonade

On my way to Berlin, looking for a quality Iranian restaurant, I came across the Saadi restaurant, which was highly rated, but my experience was something else, the battered kebab was full of sweet sauce, which was probably used so much because the meat was old, and along with the kebab, there was some onion. was The muscle was very old and had a bad taste

I tried the Kubideh there. The portion was generous, and I really liked the rice. However, the food was extremely oily, which I didn’t like at all. On top of that, it lacked salt, making it quite bland. I ended up eating only half of my plate because of the excessive oil and lack of seasoning. Unfortunately, I won’t be going back.

One of the best Persian restaurants that we have been in Germany. The quality of food is great and kebab was so fresh and well made. Service was great and very kind and friendly stuff they have. We highly recommend this place and can’t wait to try their delicious food again.

A total stroke of luck - incredibly delicious food and very, very nice service. Gladly again!

The food was ok ok. but very expensive.

Despite friendly service and a pleasant atmosphere, unfortunately not recommended. The restaurant initially seemed promising, but the food left something to be desired. The rice in particular was really not good, it was almost like rice pudding. Since rice plays a particularly important role in Persian cuisine and is served with pretty much every dish, this is a huge sticking point and the reason why this restaurant is unfortunately not recommended.

The food tasted like it came straight out of my grandma's kitchen. If you're craving authentic Persian food, please come to this place. The front lady was so sweet and checked on us while we were there. The experience was absolutely amazing!

If you’re looking for an authentic Persian dining experience in Berlin, Saadi Restaurant is an absolute gem. From the moment we arrived, the warm hospitality and cozy atmosphere made us feel right at home. The food? Simply outstanding. We ordered a classic combination of koobideh and barg kebabs, served with fragrant saffron rice and grilled vegetables. The meat was perfectly seasoned and tender, the rice fluffy with just the right touch of saffron and barberries, and the grilled tomato and pepper added a delicious smoky contrast. The fresh bread basket and creamy mast-o-khiar (yogurt with cucumber and herbs) were perfect accompaniments. We also enjoyed a refreshing salad shirazi and a glass of doogh (Iranian yogurt drink), which rounded off the meal beautifully. Every bite transported us straight to Iran. Highly recommend this place to anyone craving traditional Persian food. The portions are generous, the ingredients fresh, and the flavors truly authentic. I can’t wait to come back!

You have to eat there at least once, but unfortunately no card payments.

Really delicious food, very nice service!

Delicious Persian food (also vegetarian) in a very friendly, family atmosphere. Absolute recommendation

Great Iranian food in Berlin. I have tried a couple of Iranian restaurants in Berlin, and this was definitely the best one so far.

Tasty food and very kind people 😃

Overall, I can say it was a nice experience, Kabab had every decent size and it tasted nice, but the rice tasted a mixture of Persian rice with non-Persian rice, but in a nutshell, food was good, but it could have tasted a lot better with a bit more salt! The owners are very nice and friendly, and the interior atmosphere is warm and inviting, about the price, I just want to mention that I ate better Persian food with cheaper prices in Berlin.

A nice little (secret) tip in the Bergmannkiez. Delicious Persian cuisine with many local ingredients such as barberries, pomegranate seeds and walnuts. The eggplant-based starters are great to share, the main courses are rich but extremely tasty. The service is very warm and the prices are absolutely reasonable.

Incredibly good Persian food!! Definitely go to try it, it's worth it :) The lamb, rice and vegetables were super good, the Persian Ayran too! Most dishes are gluten-free.

Such amazing food, amazing atmosphere, amazing staff. The food is so delicious, so flavourful, the meat is so tender, the portions are really big. Money 100% worth it. The owners are really welcoming and lovely. A place where you feel at home and where you don’t want to leave.

Last night, we dined there for dinner—it was our third visit, and once again, both the service and food maintained their outstanding quality. The manager, a warm and respectful lady, ensured that every detail was perfect. We sampled a variety of kebabs along with one of the mixed rice dishes, and each item impressed us with its flavor and presentation. Overall, we left thoroughly satisfied and happy with the experience.

We came across the Saadi Restaurant by chance and were fortunately able to get a seat even without a reservation - right at the back in a corner. The service was really great, the staff were extremely attentive and friendly, so we felt welcome from the start. However, the atmosphere could have been a little more comfortable. A lit candle on the table or a more loving table decoration would have made the ambience even more atmospheric. For dinner we chose a Persian specialty. The portions were pleasingly large, but the taste of the dish didn't completely convince us. The orange flavor was a little too intense, and the cardamom flavor in the chicken was very dominant - certainly a matter of taste, but a little too strong for us. Overall, the food was okay, but unfortunately not a real highlight. Nevertheless, if you want to try Persian cuisine and place great value on attentive service, you are in good hands here.

The most delicious koubideh in town

Really delicious and excellent food. Personally, I really liked the restaurant in Berlin. 🥰🤍 Great experience and great hospitality. 🌍💋

It's super tasty and the service is very, very friendly... unfortunately it was a bit cold, so points are deducted for the ambience... otherwise it's super chic and completely to my taste😍

Fantastic, delicious, never eaten so well, thank you, it was simply very, very good in terms of taste, beautifully decorated, I really enjoyed my meal.

...very tasty food with a firework of spices...

There were four of us at Saadi. Each of us was extremely satisfied with our meal. Really, really tasty. The service was friendly and authentic. Highly recommended!

The food was very tasty and plentiful. We were there as a group and everyone had something different. All the dishes tasted very tasty. The only drawback: There were no desserts today except ice cream 😔. Will then try it on the next visit.

This place is underrated, you would not expect the amazing flavors from the look of this place, but damn that food tastes AMAZING. Super cute staff , i will definitely save this on my map for future reference :)

Delicious food and you can ask for vegan options :)

Excellent food, appropriate pricing and very kind people running the place :-) looking forward to the next time!

Very tasty and cozy! Delightful staff!

Very tasty food at fair prices and very friendly hosts. We will definitely come back!

Such a cute restaurant with lovely owners and homemade delicious food. I especially recommend the Koreshte Fesenjun, it was amazing!

Super delicious food, very friendly people

Extremely tasty and very large portions!

Very delicious chicken/djudje kabab, amazing host. Merci 🙏

Delicious food, large portions. We had lunch for 2, each a dish and a drink, 44 euros in total.

Best persian food u can not find even in iran

Great service and food. Compared to other Persian restaurants in Berlin, this place offers the most authentic and high-quality dishes.

I came, i Ate, I was amazed! We ordered a grilled lamb, and shrimps in a dark spicy sauce, both served with perfect portion of rice, not overcooked just perfect with grilled paprika on the side. These people were super friendly despite the fact that our 3 year old wasnt that friendly :D she received a chocolate advent calendar from the Owner/Chef i dont know, but i liked them, Persian music, Persian Couple, Persian Delight, I Salute You it was great!
