Classic and fusion Middle Eastern cooking -- some of Naples's finest ethnic food -- fill the menu with wonderful, adventurous taste treats. Specialties include dried plum lamb, garlic eggplant chicken, mango-ginger shrimp, and spicy beef in saffron sauce with cucumber yogurt. Ocher walls, stuffed ottomans, and exotic tapestries confirm the "Persian bistro" on the restaurant's sign. The service lags at times, but intrepid palates still declare it worth finding (hidden in a strip mall) and waiting for.

I grew to love Persian food when I lived in Los Angeles, and looked forward to our Bha Bha Persian dinner. It did not disappoint. From start to finish, the food and service were excellent. Both my husband and I enjoy unique, high quality restaurants. If you do, too, this should be a must-visit in Naples.

On Feb 1 - 2008 my wife and I enjoyed a meal at this fabulous restaurant. We are originally from Toronto, but recently moved to Chicago so we have had our fair share of Persian restaurant experience. My wife ordered the Spicy Beef dish while I ordered the Soltani. We started off with the Osh, and all dishes were extremely flavourful. Of all the Persian restaurants I have been to, this ranks up there as the BEST! Our server, Cayan did a remarkable job with his suggestions and follow up. Ambience was great, but crowd seemed a tad "snobby". The only developmental feedback I will add is the that the beef tenderloins were on the salty side, but still fine. I will recommend this restaurant to anybody looking for superior Persian food in Southern Florida!

This is one restaurant that is not going to bore you. The mango shrimp is fantastic. The braised lamb dishes are succulent. The service is always attentive and friendly. In the summer Bha Bha has wonderful deals that are truly a value. It's located in a shopping center down the road from the Ritz Carlton and is truly worth a visit. One of their lamb recipes has even been mentioned in Bon Appetit! Casual yet sophisticated.
