From biryani to khoresh mast, a short introduction to flavours that form an important part of Isfahan's cultural experience.

Main guide

Local food is part of understanding Isfahan. Biryani, khoresh mast and traditional sweets each have a different context and style, so food experiences work well alongside visits to the historic centre and city bazaars.

Planning notes

If you have dietary restrictions or a specific preference, mention it before ordering. Vira's online dining menus are available to review categories and make an initial choice.
