Sun Oct 03 21:01:57 -0700 2004 0 Oza 1 1429582 Colbeh in Great Neck long island is very good, the colbeh in the city isn't too great--they are kosher persian..there is also ravagh which has location in the city, and in Rosyln,-been to the Rosyln one which is pretty okay, never went to the Manhattan one, but I would think it's worth a try--they are not kosher.

Sun Oct 03 22:17:26 -0700 2004 1429582 0 Janie 1 1429600 There's a place called Ravagh (something like that) that is supposed to be really good, in Manhattan, on 30th between 5th and Madison. Do a search on Persian and you should find some old posts. Wed Oct 06 13:01:30 -0700 2004 1429580 0 shrimpbird 2 1429606 I sometimes get lunch from there. It's OK, but nothing to write home about. I seem to remember reading that the ownership changed hands a while back, and that it's now indian guys running the place (though it's still ostensibly persian). Anyway, I've definitely had persian food I liked better--though not in NYC.
