Ravagh Lenox Hill

I stopped by here for a late lunch for the first time. As soon as I walked in I was greeted with a smile and enthusiasm. Everyone that worked there said hello and looked happy to be there. The restaurant itself is very cute, cozy, and clean. I’m pretty new to Persian Cuisine and have only had it once other time. While I liked it the first time- this time I REALLY enjoyed it. The koobideh kabobs were seasoned perfectly and was soo juicy and tender. For dessert I got Persian tea (which I love) and I decided to try to Faloodeh. The fresh lemon and sour cherries were a lovely touch, making it very light and fresh after that amazing meal. The noodles in it were also a nice surprise as it gave it a nice texture. The best part is I didn’t feel overstuffed or tired after eating. It felt like I was eating a comforting home meal- that being said I left extremely happy and satisfied lol I also got the dark meat chicken Kabob to as well to try it .. it was sooo juicy. I think I could just eat the chicken every day like that alone lol in the to go bag they also packed some of their delicious fresh bread, along with sauces for it and some sumac. Needless to say, I will be returning again! I’m constantly craving that koobideh and I absolutely want to try some new things! Also needed to add that while I was eating, a customer came in wanting gluten free options. One gentleman kindly stood there and assisted her, pointing out everything she could get. The people always make the places better.

We ordered the eggplant appetizer, yogurt with mint and cucumber, and chicken kebab with rice. Everything was fresh and very well prepared. The freshly baked bread was also a nice touch. Overall, the food quality was very good. However, I was surprised to see an 18% service charge automatically added to the bill. Honestly, it's the first time a restaurant has ever charged me a service fee like that — and it was separate from the tip I personally added.

Ravagh Persian Grill 65th 1st ave, A quaint Persian grill, stopped by for lunch, chicken shish kebab was extremely tender w/ rice , braised tomato and grilled sweet onion added nice flavor. Also cucumber and mint yogurt added nice depth of flavor. If your ever in the area , give Ravagh a try your palette won't disappoint.
