Place is the perfect hole in the wall. Very small but plenty of room at the same time. Very friendly staff. Mannerisms were respectful. Food was delicious. Fresh ingredients. I was also able to have my dog outside while restaurant next door was entirely no pets allowed. Location is great by the pier. Think I’ll start eating here after my runs. Fell in love with the place.

Family owned since 2003, Gypsy’s Persian Grill brings authentic Mediterranean flavors with a proud Persian twist straight from the heart of Tehran. Every dish feels rooted in tradition, from the perfectly seasoned meats to the vibrant sides that showcase real home style cooking. Located in the beautiful Belmont Shore neighborhood, this spot delivers warmth, flavor, and a sense of heritage that keeps you coming back. A true local gem with heart and history.

Really enjoyed the variety and flavors. We ordered the sampler, which included yogurt dip, hummus, eggplant borani, and stuffed grape leaves, all served with flatbread. Everything tasted fresh and well-balanced, and the eggplant borani was especially comforting and flavorful.
We also had Gypsy’s kebab combo with juicy chicken and kubide, served with fragrant saffron basmati rice that paired perfectly with the meats. The tabouleh salad was also so fresh and satisfying, adding a really nice balance to the meal. We also tried the beef kebab pita, which was tender and well-seasoned. Portions were generous and everything felt thoughtfully prepared. Definitely a spot I’d come back to.

Great little spot with a beautiful patio. The kebob I got was amazing and the Turkish coffee comes in a really cool cup/plate and it was the perfect blend of sweet smoothness in an espresso like drink. Glass of red was good, went great with the kebob. Pita as an entree was fresh and delicious.

I visited this place based on a recommendation and absolutely loved everything about it. It’s a charming little spot with a warm, friendly atmosphere. I had a solo dinner on the patio, which was beautifully decorated with flowers on the walls. I ordered rice with berries, organic chicken, and a Mediterranean salad, and everything was delicious. Chris, who served me, was incredibly friendly and provided excellent service. All the staff, including Chris and Ronny, were welcoming and made the experience even more enjoyable.

I have always seen this establishment on my way to the Veterans Memorial Pier, and I gave it a try. I ordered “to go” sandwiches (pita wraps) and told them that i would pick up my order in 30 minutes. How sweet of them that they calculated what time I would pick up my order and grilled chicken so that I could enjoy fresh food! I ordered falafel and chicken sandwiches. My friend who is kinda picky eater (she admits) loved the chicken pita sandwich. I liked mine as well. As I was waiting for my order, I looked around the establishment and was surprised to see that there is a huge patio! I would definitely come back to actually dine in next time.

I don’t know how I didn’t know about this place until recently, but I am obsessed. The Turkish chicken kebab plate with zareshk rice topping is so freaking good.
Really cute little space and everyone I’ve interacted with there has been super nice!

I’ve always wanted to go here and I’m so glad we finally. We had a great experience! We went here for an early valentines dinner and sat on the patio. The food and service were fantastic. The berry hummusu was so so good. Really looking forward to going back and trying more things on the menu.

This place is phenomenal. Family run restaurant in Belmont Shore that has been serving quality Iranian dishes for ages. I wish I visited sooner!
