You could come to Diba for a joojeh skewer, but our favourite thing about this Persian restaurant on the far end of the King’s Road is the traditional specials like slow-cooked lamb shank or tomatoey zereshk polo. It’s a warm place to comfortably catch up with a group of friends, have a quiet, last-minute date on the mezzanine seating, or bring your entire family to share kashk e bademjan without worrying about overstaying your welcome. The grilled meats won’t blow you away, but they’re satisfying enough. And if you’re looking to switch it up from your usual, the dizi—slow-cooked lamb chunks with softened potatoes and chickpeas, mashed in a clay pot, before being wrapped in naan and dipped in a rich tomato sauce—is excellent.
