Jaam-E-Jam Restaurant

Enjoyed the service and food today. Came back after many years, quality of the food and the service provided today was really good. I got the special plate, the Barg was excellent I asked for it to come out bit more juicier and it was absolutely outstanding. The chicken also had a nice tang and was marinated well - unlike other restaurants where you need a wedge of lemon squeezed in order to enhance the flavor the marination was quite nice and the acidity was already present Area of improvement for me is the Koobideh, I found it to be slightly on the saltier side but also with some spices added to make it closer to a Lebanese style Kafta Kabab rather than a traditional Persian koobideh the rice could have also been bit more fresh Aside from that the staff, ambience and overall good quality was very good!

We had such a delicious meal here. The flavours were so unique and truly delicious. My girlfriend and I shared the Persian olive dip (must try, unlike any other dip I’ve had) and Noon paneer Gerdu (feta was so good) for starters. We then had Fesenjan and Gheymeh Nesar for the mains, and both were exceptional. The servings were very generous and left us well and truly full. The only request I’d make is for a little bit more meat in the dishes, but apart from that everything was perfect. Our waitress was so lovely aswell and provided excellent service. Overall we both agree we’ve found a true gem in Hornsby and will definitely be coming back!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve been a loyal customer of Jame Jam Persian Restaurant for over 8 years, and it is hands down the best Persian restaurant in Sydney. The quality and taste are absolutely authentic — exactly like back home in Persia. I’ve tried almost every Persian restaurant across Sydney, but none of them come close to Jame Jam when it comes to flavour, freshness, and hospitality. I’m very fussy when it comes to food quality, taste, and service, but Jame Jam has always exceeded my expectations. From the warm welcome to the perfectly cooked meals, everything is consistently outstanding. If you’re searching for the best Persian food in Sydney, don’t waste your time looking elsewhere — this is the place! Highly recommended.

I've been coming to Jaam e Jam with my family for years now, so I’m definitely a little biased—but it’s truly my favourite Iranian restaurant! There’s something special about the kebabs, the homemade doogh, and the cozy atmosphere that keeps me coming back. And the cherry on top? They make fresh Halim on weekends! The only other times I’ve had fresh Halim were back in 2015 in Tehran and as a child when my grandmother would make it. Having it here brings back so many beautiful memories. It’s truly a gift to find a little taste of home right here in Hornsby. Highly recommend it to anyone craving authentic Iranian food!

Wow, what an amazing Persian restaurant. The restaurant is BYO, and the staff are super friendly (like all Persian restaurants). There was plenty of nearby parking even on a Saturday, but I suspect you can park at Westfield and walk as well. We loved the Mirza Ghasemi dip (bbq eggplant, eggs, tomato, garlic) and has this with Persian bread - it doesn't have a strong eggplant taste and was divine. Also person bread is way better than Lebanese bread. We shared a Gheymeh Nesar (lamb on saffron rice topped with barberries), and everything worked, we loved the flavours of the rice, the tenderness of the lamb, the texture from the pistachio flavours and the tang from the barberries. I loved the rollet (Swiss roll cake) dessert - a serve is 2 slices. We also loved the mixed phaloodehand ice cream dessert. It was fun changing up the flafoure with the cherry sauce and the lemon sauce, although you only need a few drops of each. Can't wait to come back!

Great Persian cuisine. Super friendly staff. Very delicious. If you're new to Persian food, the Jaam e Jam special is a good taster of some of the main options. The Persian bread is also worth a try. Normally it's a busy place, so recommend booking ahead. On a Saturday night there's Normally two sittings 6.00pm-7.30pm. And then 7.30PM-9.00PM. Parking can be tricky, but is worth the short walk.

Absolutely incredible! This restaurant deserves every bit of its 5-star rating. The food is packed with flavor and has a nostalgic quality that makes it feel like a home-cooked feast. I’ve already decided this is going to be a regular spot for me. To anyone nearby: stop hesitating and try something amazing today. You won't regret it!
