SafranGarden in Hamburg

I tried the Fesenjan stew at this restaurant. Considering the ingredients available in Germany and the fact that some of these ingredients are not as good as the Iranian ones (like pomegranate paste), and the reasonable price compared to other Iranian restaurants in Hamburg, I thought the quality was very good and I definitely recommend you try it. Of course, the amount of chicken stew could be a little more.

The meat in some Persian restaurants in Hamburg was incredibly delicious; it was very, very tasty and juicy.

Very delicious food and very friendly service.

Who would have thought you could embark on a little culinary journey to Iran right in the middle of a shopping center? Safran Garden is just such a find. No parking stress – there are plenty of parking garages – but free parking? Well, those are probably as rare as a flight to Tehran for €19.99. As soon as we walked in, we were greeted by the incredibly warm owner. And as if that weren't charming enough, the chef himself came by to advise us – you don't experience that every day. It makes you feel truly valued as a guest. The ambiance is, of course, strongly reminiscent of a food court – naturally, since we were in one. But honestly, that's precisely what makes it so appealing. Despite it being a Saturday evening, the atmosphere was pleasantly relaxed – perhaps because we were almost the last ones there, or perhaps simply because Safran Garden exudes such a sense of calm. The bistro is a bit more expensive than the surrounding area, but the quality of the food absolutely justifies it. The dishes were incredibly delicious – fresh, aromatic, and perfectly seasoned. If I could make a request, though (and I'm officially doing so now 😄): Please, please add Kashk-e Bademjan or Kuku Sabzi to the menu. A few additional hot and cold appetizers would be fantastic. The hot main courses are excellent, but the appetizer selection could definitely be expanded. All in all: A very charming place with great food, lovely people, and an atmosphere that works wonderfully despite being in a shopping center. We'll definitely be back – with big appetites and even bigger hopes for more appetizers!

The Safrangarden Restaurant has very friendly staff. The food is authentically Iranian and the ambiance is beautiful. Highly recommended!

We ordered the mixed grill platter, which included almost all of the restaurant's grilled meats. The taste of every single piece was excellent, and even the drinks, salad, yogurt, and everything else were of outstanding quality. Furthermore, the friendly and welcoming manner of the lady and gentleman who run the restaurant ensures that I will return every time I travel to Hamburg.

Great food with friendly staff.

Very good service. Friendly staff.

I ordered the Vaziri platter. It was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff was really friendly. I'll definitely come back.

Unfortunately, my visit to Safran Garden was disappointing. The food was barely edible – bland in taste and of unconvincing quality. The service was also only moderately attentive. Overall, not an experience I would recommend.

Absolutely awful! The food was inedible, cold, and served without any care. The service was inattentive and disinterested. An outrage – never again!

The food was Great, particularly Ghajari, which was the combination of Mahiche and Fesenjoon. I highly recommend it to anyone who misses the Iranian taste. The hospitality was great with super friendly staff.

It is really perfect restaurant with delicious foods

One of the best Persian restaurants in Hamburg or maybe Germany! The food was awesome, the service was amazing and the staff was friendly, polite and nice! Super highly recommended ;)

It was one of the best restaurants in Hamburg u have to try it

Very tasty food and super friendly staff, highly recommended

The food was incredibly delicious and high quality The staff and waiters were very professional and friendly If you are visiting Hamburg or living in the city, I definitely recommend trying this restaurant; you will have a great and memorable experience

Unfortunately, I can only give this restaurant one star because the people there were really nice... But that's about it. We ate there with four people, and everything was prepared in a Ninja air fryer. The owner seems to love it a lot, as he has four of them on site. Out of four people, two got a rasher... The meat was apparently not digestible...a strange consistency and lacked grilled flavors. It was also quite dry, like the rice; a side sauce might have made it a bit more pleasant... In conclusion, it's hazardous to my health, and I can definitely make it better at home. P.S. The saffron ice cream tasted like bath bombs. Disgusting.

The food was delicious and prepared to a high standard. There was also a signature dish that I would definitely return for.

Simply fantastic all around! I had a day off and wanted to try something new. SafranGarden was the perfect place! I had the Persian beef stew, and it was absolutely delicious! But even more than the amazing food, I was impressed by the warm and attentive service! Next time, I'll definitely bring my friends ❤️

I don't understand the 5-star reviews. I don't know if it used to be better. The food was okay, but very little spice for Persian dishes, and the rice was very disappointing.

Food was dissapointing, no spices whatsoever. Rice was bland, no raisins, no pistachios. Meat had nothing special, a bit salty but no persian flavours. It's not bad, but the prices don't justify the mediocre taste.

The best and most deliciauce food that I ever taste in Euro. Thanks and well down

Very good iranian restaurant in the center of Hamburg.

The food was particularly good!

An all-around fantastic experience! The food was not only delicious, but also beautifully presented – fresh, creative, and with great attention to detail. The service was attentive, warm, and always professional, without being intrusive. I was particularly impressed by how friendly and competent the staff were in responding to requests. The ambiance is also impressive: stylish, cozy, and with an atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. Whether for a relaxed dinner, a special event, or simply an enjoyable evening – this restaurant is highly recommended. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!”

“Great restaurant! Excellent food, very friendly service, and a beautiful ambiance – highly recommended.”

"A hidden gem! From the warm welcome to the last bite, every moment was a delight. The menu is creative and caters to every taste. The ingredients are fresh and of high quality, and you can taste the attention to detail in every dish. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive. The atmosphere is elegant yet inviting, perfect for a special occasion or a cozy evening with friends. This restaurant exceeded my expectations, and I can't wait to return!"

The quality of the food was not very satisfactory.

The food was okay, not the best nor the worst. The curry in my dish was a bit sour (Gheyme) which I did not like that much. The portion was good but I could not finish it due to the sourness in dish.. it also felt a weird aftertaste in my mouth. The Persian tea was ok as well. I feel the place is a bit overhyped and overrated. Overall an average food place. It has a nice atmosphere and the guy is genuinely caring for his customers.

The real taste of persian food. I tried a lot of persian restaurant in different cities of Germany but i honestly can say it was the 1st rank in my opinion. I ordered vaziry with baghali polo and it was perfect😊 after that I took a tea, that one was also perfect.

Excellent food quality in Hamburg

The food was delicious and authentic. The service was very warm and friendly. I would recommend it.

Good food quality, good attitude, hygiene, delicious taste of Iranian food... I really enjoyed it

The food was really good and everyone was really nice. The atmosphere was really pleasant and everyone was super friendly. I would definitely come back.

We had Iranian cuisine, Pachin and Vaziry. It was delicious. The tea was also wonderful. We also really enjoyed the friendly welcome.

Very tasty food. Clean, and the waiter was very polite.

Super fantastic! Cannot wait to go there again. Everything was really good. Professional and warm owner, fresh and tasty food. Salad and doogh were amazing and super tasty. If you go to Hamburg, for sure this Persian restaurant is the best choice to go! Everything was great. Definitely try the doogh with your meal. Great service, fresh and tasty food. You won't regret it. I also recommend the tea after the meal. The prices were also quite reasonable and good.

Totally satisfied with food and atmosphere. Highly recommended Persian restaurant!

A trip to the beautiful city of Hamburg, along with a wonderful experience at the Safran Garden restaurant and the delicious taste of Iranian Chelow Kabab, made this journey even more enjoyable. A trip to the beautiful city of Hamburg, along with a wonderful experience at the Safran Garden restaurant and the delicious taste of Iranian Chelow Kabab, made this journey even more enjoyable.

We really enjoyed eating Chelo Kebab Kobideh and Shishlik at this restaurant. I am an Iranian living in Denmark and I wished there was a restaurant like this in my city. The food was incredibly good, the service was good, and the hygiene was excellent. It was a memorable experience for me.

Tourists in Hamburg looking for Persian food and found this based on reviews. Very good kobide, nice service and friendly welcome. Highly recommend.

Quiet and clean restaurant, friendly service. All dishes are freshly prepared. Something different on the menu, highly recommended. My favorites are the vegan dishes.

Very good food and freshly grilled, friendly staff, I don't need to say more, recommended 😍😋

This was truly one of the best dining experiences I've had in Hamburg! The Persian dishes at this restaurant were incredibly delicious and authentic. The Chelow kebab was fantastic—with aromatic rice and tender, juicy meat. The taste of saffron and sumac immediately reminded me of home. The staff was very hospitable, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and inviting. I'll definitely be back!

Great food, friendly and professional staff.👍💚

Really friendly staff and high quality food and reasonable prices. Highly recommended!

I like it better if they make their food on fire and not on electric machines. The tase was good regardless.

I discovered this restaurant by chance and ate here twice today within a week. Very fresh and delicious. The staff is so friendly. I'd happily return.

The restaurant is located in a food court and it’s easy to find it! The food was great! Good variety of Persian food! The service was good and had a friendly staff. Worth to try it!

⭐ SafranGarden, Hamburg Blissful Persian flavors in the heart of Hamburg’s city center! From saffron‑infused Ghormeh Sabzi and tender Joojeh Jangali to grilled Koobideh, every dish bursts with vibrant spices and fresh ingredients. Friendly, welcoming staff made us feel at home—and even treated us to starters while we waited! Price‑wise, €15‑30 for generous portions, all served in a cozy spot under the Perle Passage. We ordered Ghormeh Sabzi, Shishlik, Mirzaghasemi, and Kubise Kebab. Shishlik Kebab was made by Ninja machine but was very soft and delicious 😋 🙌🍛 #Hamburg #PersianFood #SafranGarden #Kebab #Foodie

We saw the very good ratings and went for dinner there and got shoked with the poor quality of the food. The service and attetude of the owner was good though

I highly recommend this Iranian restaurant with really tasty food and also friendly staff.

We were passing through Hamburg and decided to have dinner. We read the reviews on Google to go to an Iranian restaurant and went to this restaurant which was close to the hotel. We got a kebab tray for 55 euros...very poor quality: the kebab was only yellow in color and smell!!! The kebab chicken was dry and without flavor.. The rice was without any flavor. But the lady who brought us the food was very respectful

Thank you for your great service. It was as perfect as Restaurants in Rasht.

I usually don't write reviews, but here felt so authentic that it was like I had a trip back home! highly recommended

very tasty, good price, excellent service.

Very tasty food and super friendly service. I would definitely recommend it 👍

I rarely give reviews, but I have to do so here. Simply delicious. I'll be back.

Passing through Hamburg, looking for a local Iranian restaurant, here I found it. We ordered Vaziri and Djoujeh zaafrani. Generous dishes, quality, excellent Dough. Maste o khiar top and to finish Faloodeh Shirazi. Served by Amir, available and fast. I recommend, excellent in every way

Very good quality Iranian dishes.

In any case, I recommend this Persian restaurant. Very delicious food😍😍😍😍Their food is very delicious Be sure to come ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Top food, top service and simply delicious

I recently took my foreign colleagues to this Iranian restaurant, and we were all very satisfied. The food was authentic and full of flavor—everyone especially enjoyed the kebabs and saffron rice. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was welcoming. A great introduction to Persian cuisine for my guests.

Three of us were there today. We had two vegetarian dishes and one koobideh. It was delicious. We also had a few special requests, which were accommodated. Very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

Super cozy restaurant, friendly service and delicious food🤍

Great food, Incredible service, reasonable prices; Iranian hospitality at it's best.

Without exaggeration: This was the best Persian food I have eaten in Germany so far! The Safran restaurant is truly outstanding – the food is incredibly tasty, authentic and of high quality. The atmosphere in the restaurant is pleasant and inviting. I would particularly like to highlight the extremely polite, friendly and hospitable restaurant manager - you feel welcome from the first moment. I will definitely come back and recommend it to everyone. Clear 5 stars!

Everything was great! Extremely delicious and high-quality food, stylish and pleasant environment, and most importantly, the warm and friendly attitude of the restaurant owner who makes you feel like you are a guest in their house, not an ordinary customer. I will definitely come again and recommend it to everyone! Alles war einfach großartig! Die Gerichte waren unbelievably lecker und hochwertig, das Ambiente stilvoll und angehenm – und das Beste war die herzliche und freundliche Art des Restaurantbesitzers. Man feels nicht wie ein gövenlicher Gast, sondern wie ein welcomener Besucher bei Freunden. I come auf jeden Fall again und kann es nur weiterempfehlen!

The best restaurant in Hamburg, even among the best in Germany. Excellent food quality. Excellent hospitality. .I will definitely come again and recommend it to others. One of the best restaurants in Hamburg – perhaps even in all of Germany. The quality of the food is excellent and the hospitality is outstanding. I will definitely come back and I can highly recommend a visit.

The food was very tasty and the service was great! We'll definitely be back. We can only recommend it.

It was only a nice discovery since we are already very hungry and luckily found this little gem. The staffs are very nice. There is a guy waiter there who even provided me a tester so I can try the food since I'm unsure of the taste. My 1st time in any restaurant here in Hamburg 👌🏼😊 We ordered their Ghormeh Sabzi and Vaziry. Maybe since they were almost closing when we came, then they gave us an extra piece of Baklava haha! All very delicious and a must try! 🤤🤤🤤

Unfortunately that was bad. Almost good similar location. Lentil soup absolutely inedible.. Khorste Gheyme with ready-made potatoes and cheap ingredients and miserable rice.. Sorry, Persian cuisine is everything different than what they offer.. Too expensive for this quality..

I can highly recommend this restaurant. The service is great and the employees are very nice. The food has a lot of taste and is also very tasty.

The food and drinks tasted very good and the service was also excellent and friendly.

I ordered Fesenjan with lamb shank and was very happy with everything. The portion was generous and the taste was simply excellent. The staff was very friendly and warm. I will definitely come back!

It was really delicious and the owners are very friendly.

I can't quite share the euphoria of other reviewers. The food is okay, but the seasoning and consistency takes some getting used to. Friendly service on the one hand and the cool atmosphere of the shopping center on the other make the decision difficult. After several attempts, I decided that Persian food was not one of my favorites. But that's definitely a matter of taste. So: try it out for yourself!

The hospitality was extraordinary. Food tasted good.

Very tasty food, beautifully served and very friendly staff. We'd love to come back.

I really enjoyed the food I ordered, it was great, you must try it

Very friendly staff and delicious dishes.

"I was very satisfied with my visit. The food was extremely tasty, the atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. The service was attentive and friendly. The fair and affordable prices are particularly positive. Highly recommended!" غذا بسیار عالی ‌فضا بسیار دلپذیر و بهترین پذیرایی 👍😍

I did not like the iranian food. Rice smelled weird and I didnt like the meat. The people are friendly and helpful. And the dishes look really good.

Everything was in the best possible condition.

Koobide kebab and doogh were perfect!

Lovely staff, brilliant hygiene, amazing food, delicious side dishes, very tasty garlicy/cucumber yogurt and the last but not the least, fair prices. Highly recommended!!!

An absolute must in downtown Hamburg for all lovers of Persian cuisine! A true taste experience of the highest quality awaits you here. I can give this recommendation 100%!

I was at an Iranian restaurant in Hamburg today – absolutely delicious! The food was super fresh and well-seasoned, just as it should be. The service was friendly and the atmosphere was really cozy. I highly recommend it!

Very culinary, really home made, I got this feeling that I was home again. Super nice waiters and very attentive. Highly recommend ✌🏽

Everything is great. Super nice service. And delicious food.

Food is great! Service great! There should be a lot more going on for the food to be so delicious.

In my opinion, if you try this place just once, you will always come here again. The food is unique, just like mom's food, and their attitude is also unique. I highly recommend it.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Safran Garden again after four years and it was an absolute highlight! The quality of the Persian dishes is still outstanding. The Ghorme Sabzi, a Persian lamb ragout with split peas, was particularly enjoyable. The flavors were perfectly balanced and the freshness of the ingredients was clearly palpable. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. I can recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to experience authentic Persian cuisine in Hamburg.

Very friendly service, really delicious Persian cuisine, various Persian dishes and the quality is top!

As a Persian I would say they have one of the best food quality in Hamburg compare to the other Restaurants! Also the service is top noch!! Kind Staff and really good Atmosphere.

The food is tasty, fresh and perfectly prepared. The service is professional and very friendly. An absolute must for lovers of Persian cuisine!

The foods were very delicious and the staffs were friendly. We enjoyed and definietly will visit again:)

I think the food tastes very good. They have different dishes and the service was friendly, nice and fun. I recommend the restaurant and would come to eat here again.

The chicken tastes very tasty and there is something delicious to drink for every type. The food in general tastes very tasty and it doesn't take long like the usual restaurants. The service is very hygienic and asks if you need anything else, very nice and friendly! I can only recommend it!!!
