This is one of the oldest pizzerias in Mashad. The food and the restaurant is kind of nostalgic to me. They used to be the best at one point but now with so many other places to go to, the competition is tough. And frankly I didn't enjoy my pizza as much as I used to before. Wonder why?
2. Shandiz Eram Restaurant

Shandiz is the birthplace of Shandiz Kebabs. What makes them so special and world class? Tender meat, secret marinate recipe, the size, the ribs function, and on top of all unique to restaurants in Shandiz, the ambiance. I've been a fan of this restuarant for years. If you eat in European portions, one portion of kebab skewer can easily fill you and your partner's belly. One portion comes with rice, rice cake (tahdig or tahchin), side dishes such as yogurt, olive, and butter. They are all locals and home made. A visit to Shandiz is not paid without eating the best of the menu "Shandiz Kebab in Eram." Perfect choice for meat lovers!
3. SHAYAN

4.5 based on 16 reviews
For a Tourist Visiting Mashhad and wants to test traditional food, its a must eating the most famous traditional food which is a kind of KEBAB we call it 6Kebab or Shesh Kebab and in our language "Shishlik". Its a very nice kind of kebab originally from a small town "Shandiz" which is about 16Km from Mashhad and most of this kind of restaurants are located there. Its a kind of kebab from the cow ribs and comes with rice and some other sides like traditional yougourt and some more things. Its about 15$ for a person portion. I highly recommended the Shayan restaurant which is the most famous one there. I have some photos that I can add.

Shandiz are one of the best in preparing Iranian style BBQ. They serve the best tasting preparations. There are many tourists and visitors that travel long distance to enjoy their unique cuisine. Excellent Iranian food served by efficient team of staff. Great Food.

Reviewed By MohammadNejad - Tehran, Iran
we were going to another restaurant in Anbaran that the Taxi driver recommended Tashrifat whereas he told the rates are higher than of average in the area . if i want to have a better judgement Tashrifat should receive some more than " Very Good " but not Excellent . we enjoyed atmosphere , food , services and politeness of staff . rates are not higher than other similar restaurants . food quality was really good and finally we received a nice suggestion for a photo which made a memory for us from Tashrifat and Mashhad ( cost 15000 Toman )
highly recommended to those who like Shishlik .

this teahouse is build undeground and decorated tastefully with a range of iranian objects. the menu is a la carte and involves a starter of rose petal tea, sweets,and dried nuts and fruit. There are only about five mains including dizi (traditional lamb stew) which was very good, an auberzine dish containing mint, thick whey, mashed lamb and ground walnuts which was sensational, as well as two types of kebab (which webdid not try). for drinks we got a type of mint flavoured lashi. The ambience is wonderful and if you are in Mashhad so worth going! we paid 30 usd all up.

If you have time for one lunch in Mashhad, pesaran karim must be that one lunch.
Note: go before 12pm, or they will sell out all of the most popular and known dish that they have "mahiche" which is braised lamb cooked stew like into mouthwatering perfection. Trust me, if you go after 12, they will not have it, so it's not matterof luck. This place is 3-4 story restaurant, so you can imagine how crowded this place gets.

In Mashhad there are many good restaurants that you can find good kabab here the food is delisious and tasty but i didn't like the environment because it is crowded and very warm and humid so i didn't enjoy my lunch! More over this is more expensive than the others. Ps the restroom was poor.

If, after spending some time in Iran, you're looking for something other than the standard Iranian kebabs, this might be for you.
Tried several of the Lebanese dishes, which were quite good. Service is a tad lethargic though, required some pro-activeness to get the food ordered, served (cheese bread eventually never came after 45 min) and getting the bill.
