I prefer to eat the comfort food I am used to eating all my life, and I never thought I'd fall in love with Persian Food this instantly.
I am grateful that I experience to taste an authentic Mediterranean Food in one of the first Mediterranean Resto in the Philippines since 1985.
You'll be amazed by the staff friendliness and accurate service. But most of all, the authentic Food...
Mache polo a tender and tasty Lamb, big enough for 3pax.
Mixed Kebab II Php735 is a combination of
Beef Kebab, Shish Kebab, and Chicken Kebab grilled into perfection and sided with char-grilled tomatoes and onions.
Saffron and Biryani rice, long grains rice that I really really like.
Naan or Flatbread P135 perfect pairing with the Chef’s Sampler.
Roti Channai P140 is a Malaysian puffed sweet bread served with special sauce.
Shrimp Kebab P890 marinated in Hossein's yoghurt sauce, and grilled to perfection.
For the drinks, we had
Persian punch
Four Seasons
Mango Lassie
Blue Hawaii
Mint Lassie
I have tried the Mango Lassie and Blue Hawaii, both drinks are fruity, with yogurt and a bit salty just like how they like it in their country.

A trip to the Middle East is not a walk in the park. It entails loads of planning, which includes time and money. There are tons of research involved, too, given the countless destinations and the mysteries surrounding each country.
But if you just want to experience Mediterranean cuisine, you can have it anytime without the need to fly.
Hossein’s is Manila’s premier destination for authentic Persian, Arabic, Indian, and Eastern Mediterranean food. The ingredients they use are mostly imported and has been consistent with quality since 1985.
It was a late afternoon rendezvous for our team, and we went right into feast mode with Hossein’s staff, preparing only their best selling products to us.
So what was really good? And what should you have if you visit? What mesmerized my tastebuds the most was the Mixed Kebab platter. It had tender, grilled cuts of beef, shish (beef cello), and chicken, with the usual side of tomatoes and onions. No need for a sauce as all three were juicy and marinated well.
There’s also a seafood variety in Shrimp Kebabs, in a pool of Hossein’s own blend of yogurt sauce.
Another favorite was the Ghormeh Sabzi. It’s not precisely picture-worthy, but it’s going to satisfy most tummies. This bowl of tangy and savory meat stew has various herbs and spices, mostly parsley, leeks or scallions, cilantro, as well as dried fenugreek leaves.
There’s also the Chicken Dopiaza, a curry based entree with strong notes of onion. This one is best paired with dry, Saffron, and Biryani Rice.
While waiting for the mains to arrive, go for Chef’s Starter of colorful appetizers in Hummus, Moutubal, Kibbeh, Dolmeh, Falafel, and Tabbouleh Salad. Have it as soon as it is served with warm pieces of pita bread. You can alternate it with other carbs here like the Indian Naan and Roti Channai.
This restaurant handed out a number of drinks as well. But I only got to settle the popular Mango Lassi, an enchanting sweet and sour cup of fresh mango, milk, and yogurt.
Hossein’s Makati Avenue branch is the original location, but they do have other spots in Greenbelt and Serendra, BGC.
One of our dream travel destinations is the Middle East. Not only to see its many beautiful sights and culture but to also savor the bold, rich flavors of its cuisine. And while the travel part is still in the works, I’m happy I was able to have a taste of the gastronomic part at Hossein’s Persian Kebab in Makati. A visually-appetizing feast offering authentic Persian food that’s both soulful and filling. LET’S EAT!
Love their Chicken Makanwala and Persian tea!!
The best persian resto so far! Ghormeh Sabzi, Lamb Shank and their Lamb Ribs are a must-try. The ambience is also elegant, perfect for dates and birthdays 👌 Worth the price
Never been to this place but we got food delivered to our hotel and damn it was super finger lickin good. The Chilli sauce was Da’Bomb and the Garlic sauce was superb as well. Excellent and keep up the good work.

Have you tried any Persian Food? Or any dish that resembles its taste?
Well if you haven't tried it yet and would want to try some, better visit Hossein's Persian Kebab at Makati Ave, Makati and have a fantastic experience from awesome architectural design and decorations that would surely make you feel so luxurious!
Also do not forget to visit their Hosseins Hookah Shisha Habibi Lounge at the ground floor, try their Shisha using that oh so expensive equipment for 4 hrs.
Smoker? Do not worry because they are one of the legal designated smoking area in Makati.
While chilling and relaxing you may try the following dishes:
Chef Starter
Chicken Dopiaza
Shrimp Kebab
Saffrong and Biryani Rice
Mixed Kebab
Mache Polo
Ghormeh Sabzi
Naan
Roti Channai
They also offer various alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, such as:
Persian Punch
Four Seasons
Mango Lassie
Mint Lassie
Blue Hawaii
Here are the 3 things I like about this place:
1. The Place:
- It is so clean, well ventilated, and spacious.
- Luxurious architectural and interior design makes me feel like I am in a different country.
2. The Food:
- The Chef Starter which is composed of hummus (my most favorite) , moutabal, kibbeh, dolmeh, falafel, tabbouleh salad and 3 pcs of pita bread (or you can ask for other bread like naan, which is best consumed when hot and freshly baked).
3. The Shisha:
- It was my first time to try this thing and it was an awesome one. We tried apple and mint flavor which are both so good. Shisha plus chit chat with friends is so priceless, but of course shisha comes with a price haha.
So if you want to hang out and have some quiet or even loud time with your friends and even your family, this is a great place to be.

I've always been looking for a place close to Dubai and so far, this place has exceeded my expectations! I've always loved shisha, and it's nice to see them clean and how they serve it the traditional way (except for the modernized charcoal lol) which shows that they know what they are doing. Kudos to the authentic food as well. Maybe they just need to change the tugs tugs type of music into something more close to its home, maybe arabic modern songs?
The food is DELICIOUS. And it's a nice ambience.
However, the staff try to make you buy the most expensive items on the menu. They just care about taking your money.
It's a great place though that I like. Would be nice if the staff were a little more considerate and treated us like real customers and not just money machines.
But the food is good.
