Mirrors Hall Restaurant (Saraye Ameriha)
تالار آینه سرای عامریها
A mirror-hall restaurant in an 18th-century Kashan governor's mansion, with walls of old mirrors and vintage wallpaper, the most lavish dining setting in town.
The Mirrors Hall restaurant is located in the Saraye Ameriha boutique hotel. The mansion was built in the 18th century by Agha Ameri, a Kashan governor, and is one of the largest traditional residences in the area. The walls are lined with antique mirrors made by local craftsmen, and the room still retains wallpaper about 300 years old, making it one of the most striking dining rooms in Kashan. The menu focuses on Kashani dishes, including kofte ab somagh (meatballs in sumac-sour broth), abgoosht lobia (bean and lamb soup) and gosht lobia (lamb with beans). The mansion's café also serves Iranian snacks. Prices are higher than at other restaurants in town, and some reviewers find the food average, saying the draw is mainly the setting. Reservations are recommended. The restaurant is in the historic residential quarter on Alavi Street, very close to the Tabatabaei House.
