About Leyan Persian Restaurant

Salisbury diners head to Leyan Persian Restaurant for smoky charcoal-grilled skewers, slow-simmered stews, and generous spreads. Charcoal smoke drifts from the open grill alongside skewers of tender lamb chops and minced kubideh seasoned with saffron. Platters arrive loaded with fluffy saffron rice, charred tomatoes, and warm bread—portions hefty enough that one plate easily covers two. Long tables share family-style banquet packs, rounding out rich bowls of walnut-and-pomegranate Fesenjan with glasses of fragrant saffron tea.

  • Charcoal-Grilled Specialties: Skewers of spiced minced lamb kubideh, saffron-marinated chicken, and tender lamb chops come straight off the hot coals.
  • Abundant Sharing Platters: Generous multi-person banquet packs and family platters arrive piled high with skewers, salad, and aromatic saffron rice.
  • Traditional Persian Comforts: Rich, slow-simmered bowls of walnut-and-pomegranate Fesenjan stew pair alongside comforting pots of hot saffron tea.

Before you head over

Practical dining tips to help you make the most of your visit to Leyan Persian Restaurant.

  • Expect Waits During Peak Hours

    Peak service times and takeaway orders can cause significant kitchen waits. Plan your visit during off-peak hours or allow extra time so you can relax without feeling rushed.

  • Share Platters to Manage Generous Portions

    Portions are notably generous—a single kebab dish often feeds two people. When dining in a group, consider sharing banquet packs or family platters to balance your order and avoid ordering excess food.

  • Request Sharing Plates Upfront

    Tableware like extra plates or condiments may not always be set in advance when platters arrive. Don't hesitate to ask the staff early if you need extra plates or items for sharing.
