Moslem Restaurant
رستوران مسلم
A legendary lunch spot next to the Grand Bazaar, famous for its massive portions of chicken tahchin, attracting long queues year-round.
Located on 15 Khordad Street next to the Tehran Grand Bazaar, right by Sabzeh Meydan, with the dining area on the second floor. The signature dish is the saffron rice cake tahchin, which can be ordered with chicken, lamb shank, or lamb neck. They also serve fava bean rice (baghali polo) with lamb shank and various kebabs. One portion is often large enough for two people to share. The lunch queue is very long but moves quickly; table sharing is required, and the environment is noisy and crowded. A separate stall on the ground floor sells traditional soups and porridges like Ash and Halim. The price is mid-range on the list, and the bill includes VAT. After dining, you can easily explore the Grand Bazaar and the Sabzeh Meydan area.
Opening hours
Sat–Thu 11:00–18:30, Fri & Public Holidays 11:00–17:30; Soup/Porridge Stall 06:30–21:00
