Great value for money

The food is wonderful and the portions are rather large, even my ever-so-hungry friend was full afterwards. You get simple but tasty food. The whole restaurant is vegetarian with a few vegan options available. In general, the food is inexpensive but good. Lovely owner who gives out free tea and dates filled with walnuts. The only downside to this restaurant is that it's a rather small place, so it's a good idea to make a reservation, especially during winter when you can't sit outside. However, the food as well as the cozy atmosphere will make you return again and again!

Delicious!

I visited my friend who lives in Göttingen and she took me here, which is a place she frequented somewhat often. The host when he saw she brought a new friend along with her insisted that he serve us (free) tea, while we waited for our to-go order. What a truly wonderful little gem of a place. The next time I’m in town, I’ll definitely return, likely multiple times!

Pros: Large portions, Several vegan options, Awesome owner!

Very rich food!

The service was really nice, especially their nice gesture with dates filled with walnuts😄 I could hardly finish my plate and really liked the taste. Its great that they offer a lot of options even in one plate. I'd definitely recommend. But keep that in mind that it is a specific cuisine, so don't expect to find a lot of different tastes.

Pros: Nice atmosphere, Delicious Food, Generous

Tasty Persian food for a fair price

You get a plate full of simple but delicious vegan Persian food (falafel, safran rice, dolmeh, salad…) for a very fair price. Included are a tea and and a small dessert (fresh date with a walnut).

Pros: Tasty, Inexpensive

Cons: Limited variety of (vegan) dishes

A big plate of bland rice

Overall found the food pretty bland. It was mostly rice with some sauce, falafel and salad - it all lacked flavor.

The veggie options are nicer than the vegan ones but they are all great

I used to eat here a lot while I was still vegetarian! Great platter with mixed thing on them I feel the vegan platters are sometimes a tiny little bit dry. Would still absolutely recommend this place

Pros: Great food, Nice staff, Outdoor seating (though next to a street)

Small but lovely place to eat

Shirin is a nice little place in oriental style right in the city center of Göttingen. The owner is always nice and helpful.
It offers self-made falafel and dolmades plates in some variations which are very tasty. The saffron rice that comes with it is amazing. Plates are served with some small side salads and yogurt dressing (vegan yogurt dressing possible). Plate sizes are big enough if you are hungry :)
It also offers tea and coffee and chilled beverages like africola or bionade.

Pros: vegan yoghurt dressing, fresh tea + sweets

Cons: small choice

Tasty Persian food

Shirin is a small coffee and snack bar in Göttingen's city centre. The owner is more or less a talkative handyman, cooking and serving a small choice of tasty Persian dishes. He's trying his earnest to make you feel welcome, and linked to his efforts he'll prepare almost every dish vegan for you. All dishes come with plenty of fresh salad. There's a vegan yoghurt dressing, vegan falafel and delicious saffron rice. It might seem like a vegetarian kebab booth first, but it is rather a small restaurant, using healthy and fresh ingredients.

Pros: Taste, Friendly owner, vegan options

Cons: Small choice, few seats
