Pardeh is a modern Persian restaurant and wine bar at Empress Works, 45 The Oval, East London, bringing together food, wine, music and the warmth of Persian hospitality.Led by Yma Apa, Executive Chef and Creative Director, the kitchen draws on his Iranian heritage, French technique and a lifetime of travel. The menu moves from small plates to generous dishes for the centre of the table, with fragrant herbs, saffron, slow-cooked stews and crisp tahdig.Wine is a central part of the experience, with a list celebrating independent producers, distinctive bottles and the stories behind them. Settle in at the wine bar, gather around a sharing table or take a seat close to the kitchen, accompanied by vinyl records and conversation.On Sundays, our Persian-English roast brings a different rhythm, a long lunch combining familiar comforts with Persian flavours.
