The restaurant was founded by an Iranian immigrant who wanted to share his country's cuisine and culture. The traditional patterns on the walls and window shapes that mirror Persian architecture create a space where visitors experience Iran through design and food.
The restaurant is located near Hyehwa Station, about 520 meters (1,700 feet) from Exit 4, which is a short walk. It operates from late morning to late evening and gets busy during meal times, so reservations are recommended especially for larger groups.
The menu features full-course sets with various curries, especially lamb that has been marinated for three days, plus smoked chicken curry that is not easy to find elsewhere in Seoul. Iranian bread, yogurt, and beverages also appear on the menu, items that are otherwise difficult to obtain in the city.
