Square Meal review of Chella: ? Write your own review

Persia comes to Chiswick in the shape of this neighbourhood restaurant, which aims to combine the spicy exoticism of the orient with the safe comfort of south-west London. Inside, the decor eschews hanging lantern/floor cushion chintz in favour of something more modish – think glossy wood tables, upholstered chairs & a trendy bar. The menu is a decent stab at Persian cuisine, although some dishes deliver more than others. Starters such as ash-e-reshteh (a popular soup made with Persian noodles & fresh herbs) & kookoo sabzi (a herb omelette) are the best shouts from the starters, while mains are a mixed bag; koobideh (a skewer of minced lamb) stands out, although the selection of stews can be hit & miss. Desserts are mostly patriotic offerings such as baklava, with chocolate fudge cake pandering to European tastes.
