Shalizar is a Persian restaurant haven on the Upper East Side of Manhattan brought to you by Parvez Eliaas and his Iranian partner, Kaz Bayat of Persepolis.
Shalizar's upscale Persian menu features such traditional fare as lamb and beef kebabs, characteristically sweet-and-sour stews and tasting trios of eggplant appetizers, yogurt spreads, and Persian salads. Besides a few new menu additions such as ash-e-reshteh, a Persian green-vegetable soup with noodles, the swanky Shalizar also offers thematic cocktails, like pomegranate martinis and mojitos at an expanded bar area.
Shalizar offers modest prices for their authentic Persian food with superb service in a modern, elegant room with attentive and respectful restaurant service on the Upper East Side.
highly reccomend Shalizar! I went to Shalizar last night and had a wonderful meal. The food is very authentic and everything we order was amazing! Excellent appetizers and great deserts as well(loved the cherry dessert). Upscale presentation, pleasant and attentive service and moderately priced. Definitely worth the trip to the UES!
