Bijan's

Tasty Persian-inspired food in an intimate setting. I ordered the BBQ Pulled Pork Flatbread ($24), which was a pretty large size. At first, I thought it was a bit salty because of the BBQ sauce, but then got used to it after a few bites. The flatbread was actually quite delicious with a good amount of melted cheese, soft bread, and flavorful pulled pork on top. I also tried the Rosemary Lime Sumac Chicken ($28). The chicken was very flavorful with lots of herbs on top and pretty tender. It also came with nicely cooked mashed potatoes and green beans. While the price is a bit high, this was justified by the portion size and quality.The interior of the restaurant has dim lighting and a candle on each table, making it ideal for a date or more intimate meal. The decor (including a real wood fireplace) makes it feel very cozy and homey (plus quite warm in the wintertime).My main issue with Bijan's is just the service speed, as it took the food a very long time to come out. Other than that though, the service was good, as the staff are friendly and attentive.Overall, apart from the slow service, I thought the food was delicious and the environment was nice enough to earn Bijan's a solid 4 stars - would definitely recommend if you are interested in Persian-inspired food in Brooklyn.

I haven't left a Yelp review since 2021, but I had to dust off my account after the way I was treated at Bijan's. The waitress completely ignored us, to the point that I just ended up confused as to why she would treat us that way. The cozy atmosphere couldn't make up for how she handled our business, and I'm really offended by it. I also feel like a lot of the reviews on Google Maps are fake. Whenever there's a one-star review, it's immediately followed by a flood of five-star reviews that mention the exact complaint of the negative review. I think Yelp has a little more integrity, which is why I wanted to add my input here.

Food was really yummy. My date and I shared a big bowl of soup. We got chicken noodle and it was good. Next time I would try the rice instead of noodles. He also got the lamb stew which he loved. It came with rice AND fries. We got a cheesecake which was just ok. Service was fine. Ambiance was warm and cozy. This restaurant is open very late which is awesome.

Dinner at Bijan was definitely a treat from our friendly server Jeanette to the owner. We sat in the street had delicious food and drinks. I'm really enjoying the ambience. I can't wait to come back.

I went for brunch and got the Bijan burger. It was good, but when I go back I'd probably order something else I like the vibe of the place, but I thought it was weird that it was a predominantly cash business during brunch service. I don't know if they had an issue with their POS the day I went or if that's how it always is. In any event it's good to keep in mind if you're planning to go. If you do go and need cash, they have an ATM in the back.

I came in with no expectations. But I was delighted with the food. Well seasoned, well cooked, great selection. The service is good as well. I do recommend it, it tastes healthy!!

Great experience! The bartender (Alexander) was fantastic--he shared his secret menu with me. I got an American Mule, which was both creative and delicious. Super friendly and made the whole visit feel special.

This is the cutest place that expands beyond the initial eye. I ordered online and was shocked at the wait time, the store called me as I was calling them 'I hit the wrong button, we will be ready in 15-20 minutes' perfect! I don't have a pic of the 'crack soup' but I assure you it is delicious. Puts you in mind of a more veggie chicken soup with amazing flavors. I paused at the cost, but it was delicious. The peri peri wings were cooked crispy and good! They would probably be better fresh out the fryer. Make sure to ask well done/ fried hard. The basil shrimp was so friggin good! You wouldn't think of that combo but it works. Good sized shrimp too. The place has a late HH that I will absolutely try when I'm back up there. I like fresh foods, meat with heavy veggie notes and polite service. All equal the 5 stars they get. Go here and I will return for sure!Correction, TWO HAPPY HOURS. 4-7p and 11-close. Get it!

New Year's day here first drinks of the new years here !! great environment. the rose water and gin drink highly recommend

This is arguably one of the worst restaurants in Brooklyn, possibly even in NYC. The food is mediocre, but the service is even worse. Our waitress left us waiting for close to a half an hour or more between each visit to our table. Overall, treated us poorly and neglected to refill our water or give us silverware before disappearing for long periods of time. After sharing this awful experience with friends, I learned of other instances where waitstaff unnecessarily added gratuity to bills and overall rudeness of the management. The reviews on Google appear to be fake; many glowing reviews come from accounts without previous posts and specifically address complaints mentioned in earlier reviews, almost as if to overcompensate.Literally never write reviews, but felt compelled to do so after such a terrible experience here. It's obvious the management doesn't care about the service they provide. If it's this bad in the front, I can't imagine the shadiness or negligence that happens behind the scenes with their food prep.
