This place had a homely feel like you were eating dinner with family. There were fresh flowers on the table. Service was quick. I found the price reasonable. We loved all the food we ordered. Would definitely come back again for dinner.

Always a good experience there, food is delightful, affordable, meals are very generous. Service is good, attention to detail. Unpretentious little gem on Racecourse road, always a win for a quiet evening, catch up with friends & kids for lunch or brunch. Owners are lovely and put a lot of effort in their work. It worth being tried and is much better value over many trendy eateries in the area.

What a fantastic lunch. I had a vegetarian wrap and was not disappointed. Both the service and food were lovely and the cafe was quiet so no long wait and no noisy neighbours. I’ll be back!

The service was the best I've ever had and the ambience was just so relieving. The food was a big factor for me and it blew my mind, every meal kept getting better and better. The baklava especially was amazing and they allowed me to take a picture :) overall amazing experience and 100% worth a visit

I'm absolutely amazed by the quality of their food. The staff were so welcoming, the place looks so aesthetically pleasing and the food exceeded my expectations immensely. I honestly never review places like this but the little Persian cafe is just honestly so good

My favourite Persian restaurant in brisbane. The food tests like my mum's cooking 👌🏼✅ the service is a bit slow, but it is worth the wait 🤗 don't go there if you're in rush! Make sure you try "ADDAS POLO (GF) (V)" you may ask them to add saffron chicken 🍗 😍
This is the one which is realy recommended for Persian food lover.

This is an adorable cafe that also does meals, located on Racecourse Road. It is owned and operated by a friendly Persian couple. Service might be a little slow but the cafe is pleasant to wait in. 

Persian food is probably something that one has to grow an understanding of. I didn't understand it at first but B is half Persian, so I was forced to persist. Now I understand the flavours, the use of herbs, yogurt, pickled veg, and of course, the limo amani.

I had the gormeh sahbzi and it was very good. It came with a heap of perfectly cooked basmati and a little side salad. The flavour of the stew was spot on with soft pieces of lamb. B had the same and said it was very authentic. Our other friend had the joojeh kebab, she said it was excellent and tasted like the chicken had been basted in butter (mmm mmmmmmm). It also came with basmati, a small yoghurt, roast tomato, and a little salad. She said the chicken breast (unusual, usually thigh meat) was very juicy and tender. 
We also had a yoghurt dip with bread, it was okay, a bit runny. The bread was not very nice and did not get eaten. 
We were continually supplied with cold water throughout the meal. 

I do agree with other posters that the meals are a bit expensive for what you get. The meal should have a nicer bigger salad, with fresh herbs and raw white onion with the kebab. 

I'd go back for the stews, although a little overpriced, very home style authentic. But the kebab looked a touch unimpressive.

Very cute and cosy place. I would suggest to try Ghormeh sabzi. Persian tea was the best and was served in these cute cups. Customer service was great. Very friendly staff.

I'm so happy that I've found this place. The foods taste exactly like my mum's cooking (I'm Persian) specialty zereshk-polo, adas-polo and Fesenjan. The service is a bit slow but its worth waiting

Went here on Saturday morning for breakfast and the staff were so friendly. They offered myself and my partner a copy of the newspaper to read while we waited for our fresh meals which were delicious. All in all it was a fantastic and personable experience

We visited this lovely cafe for Sunday lunch yesterday. The lady running it was so polite & friendly. The food came out quickly & was delicious & amazing. The Turkish delight was out of this world - so perfect! Thanks so much for your excellent efforts with service & food / coffee making Little Persian Cafe :-)

Fantastic traditional Persian cuisine! A little expensive but the taste is delicious. Really great menu with all the classic Persian dishes, as well as some old favourites reimagined. Would recommend to anyone in the area to give it a go!

Hidden treasures of Brisbane. The place is small but has a magical touch to it. Presentation, staff and everything about the place is 10/10. Even though I only had traditional Persian tea and dessert, I will definitely be coming back to try some mains. I only wish we had more places like this to discover in Brisbane. Very unique.
