I have always been wanting to try Persia Grill, but their branches are situated outside the malls, which makes it difficult for me to do so. So one Friday after office, Doc M parked at Glorietta and we walked from my office (Amorsolo area) to Greenbelt. I've tried their shawarma a couple of times already but that was when I asked someone to buy.
It was the perfect timing to try. We were at their Legaspi Village branch, accross Greenbelt 5. We were hesitant at first because nobody was inside but we have agreed that it would again take sometime before we'd pass by that area again.
The interior is interesting with all the persian-mediterranean-inspired decors. They also have a second floor, which is not being used anymore according to the waitress.
Doc M ordered the Persian Burger. He liked it, but wasn't too impressed about it. It was like a burger and shawarma mixed together. It looks small, but was enough to satisfy a craving. He still prefers to have the usual burger in a bun.

I had their lamb steak, as recommended by the waitress to be one of their bestsellers. It was actually my first time to consume a lamb with that portion. I'd usually just get a lamb kebab or lamb gyro.
I enjoyed my meal. Lamb has a distinct taste that I cannot describe, but it's certainly different from pork and beef. The meat was tender, but found a big portion to be fatty. The Basmati rice is something that I am not used to as well.

For my drinks, I had warm fresh calamansi juice, which was perfect to end my meal. Doc M had watermelon shake, which was refreshing as well.
The staff are courteous as well and we didn't encounter anything negative during our stay. The wait time is quite long, but gave Doc and I time to cap what happened at our works that day.
Overall experience was okay, but nothing extravagant. It was enough to satisfy my curiosity. I'm still seeing myself dining here, but might take quite sometime.
