Persepolis – mediterranean_restaurant
Authentic Persian restaurant on Second Avenue near 72nd Street on Manhattan's Upper East Side, serving the classics in a modern, elegant room watched over by an oversized painting of the 1973 Persepolis soccer team. Saffron chicken and beef kubideh arrive over Persian rice, with khoresht ghormeh sabzi and fesenjan — chicken stewed with pomegranate and walnuts — for the deep cuts, plus housemade yogurt dips, baklava, and saffron-rose ice cream. Vegan options run throughout. Open daily with outdoor seating, it suits UES date nights, Persian expats, and stew scholars.
