"determined to try after that many good reviews and we were not disappointed. the staff was beautiful and very friendly and apologised for the time we had to wait when it was very busy. we certainly did not notice when we hate to be hastened when we go for a meal and it was obvious that everything was freshly cooked. my partner and I had both to start the homemade laekkartoffel soup that came with warm brot then my other half had the piri piri piri huhn kebab and I had the rib eye steak that was amazing. also the offer of drinks was good. we didn't have space for dessert, although next time I have to try the starter to try the sticky toffee pudding! we will definitely come back."

"Alborz is a wonderful hidden gem in Levenshulme that serves a variety of Persian and Middle-Eastern food, located on Stockport Rd you could be forgiven for thinking that Alborz is as unassuming as it's humble exterior suggests. However, what lies behind those modest doors is truly fantastic restaurant both in terms of food and service. The interior is understated and tasteful, furnished with Persian vases and ornate tea sets, the tables are close together to make the most of the limited space available but this lends a refreshing communal atmosphere to your meal. The staff were friendly and attentive and more than happy to talk you through the menu and explain the various dishes. We ordered the Mezze Platter to start, this consists of four different starters, and is ideal if you're not overly familiar with Persian cuisine, the homemade hummus was a particular highlight being both fresh and tasty. We then ordered the Alborz special grill for two, which looks as wonderful as it tastes, succulent skewers of koobideh and chicken accompanied by grilled vegetables, saffron rice and a freshly baked taltoon bread which was frankly quite ridiculous in its magnificence and is so large it came supplied with its own stand. This was a true delight to eat and I can highly recommend it. After all of that, we were overloaded with food and couldn't possibly consider having dessert and so, asked for the bill, which led to true surprise of the evening, all of this wonderfully authentic and fresh food came to a grand total of £42. This reflects tremendous value in a time where a meal for two can often prove quite expensive. Overall I would say that Alborz is definitely worth visiting if you're in the area and if you're not well then it's worth making the trip for. If you're a fan of Persian food or perhaps want to try something new then you would genuinely struggle to find such a quality dining experience at this price point."

"I was visiting family and they insisted that this was a great place to grab lunch (they eat from there regularly). I've not had Lebanese food before so I had trouble identifying some of the dishes but the owners who were serving were so helpful explaining what the dishes were and their level of spice. We got a medium meat tray for me, and a medium vegetarian tray. The flavours! I'm not a big lover of very spicy food and the spicy rice nearly defeated me, but it was worth it! The meat was cooked perfectly, the spices were punchy without being overwhelming, and salads! They were so delicious! And the garlic sauce!! Honestly there aren't enough superlatives. Add to that the fact that they were friendly, cheery and so helpful and I'm just sad I live so far away. I'll definitely be back!"

"The restaurant offers a diverse selection of dishes ranging from the slow-cooked lamb Chewela to the deliciously creamy butter chicken. The cheesy Seekh kebab is a unique fusion dish, and the Pommi naan and Keema rice complement the curries perfectly. The Kulfi dessert helped to cool down the spiciness of the Chewela and chilli chicken. Additionally, there were plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day. The food was excellent, the staff were knowledgeable, the atmosphere was great, and it is a must-visit in Manchester. I will definitely be returning in the future."
