Review Cafe Natasha - Saint Louis

Katie Franke

This place is consistently one of the best restaurants in STL. We especially love the beef koobideh & beef kabobs. They also have this yogurt sauce that makes every single dish even more delicious. You really can't go wrong here!

We had an amazing experience at Cafe Natasha. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Personally, I would have preferred some authentic music instead of the silence. I would definitely recommend giving this amazing place a visit. I would also highly recommend making a reservation as it gets fully booked very quickly. Bon Appétit.

We had a somewhat larger gathering of 16 people. The staff were so accommodating and welcoming. The food was amazing and the drinks... O my gosh the drinks were phenomenal. Natasha was personally making sure everything was just right. She was genuinely sharing a part of herself with every dish that was set out. Thank you so much for making our celebration so much more special.

Great food and even better cocktails! The falafel platter was delicious and a good option for vegetarians.

Cafe Natasha's ran like clockwork. Everything was good- the food, the service, the flavors- but nothing in particular stood out. That's not necessarily bad if you want a solid, reliable meal on Grand. I would go back, but I wouldn't make it part of my normal rotation. I did not, however, try one of their locally famed gin drinks. Next time, I'll have to give them a go!

First time! Great food and great service. Server was super helpful with explaining the menu and making sure we loved everything. The steak kabobs was super tender and flavorful. The lamb chops was juicy and wonderful. Make sure you save some room for the ice cream!!

Unfortunately they are permanently closing, but they've always has good food and service and lots of gluten-free options 😊

I have invited many of my friends to this place over the course of years. The food is great and the owner, Ashraf, is a wonderful hostess. However, this last time I was there, I was not received well by the manager. It ended up a total embarrassment for me and my company. And more important, I was clearly overcharged by the manager. Of course I didn’t want to create a scene before my friends’ eyes, but it didn’t sit with me well. We ordered smashed eggplant, two shallot yogurt, and a combo of kabob for the table. The kabob plate contained four “half” kabob skews and only one half skew of chicken. We were charged 40 plus for this!!! Terrible billing this time!! Also we ordered yogurt drink but we were not served!

I regret dining here. After stopping through Saint Louis on Friday and having an hour wait for a table, we decided to eat at a Moroccan place across the street. That was pretty bad too. Anyway, after reading all the Yelp reviews we really wanted to try Natasha's. We love Persian food and the menu looked promising. Sunday, on the trip back through, we stopped and ate dinner here. It was a really bad idea. Nothing tasted fresh, the bread was not good quality, the rice dry and the chicken koobideh was very unpleasant. The price was too high for the quality and portions. The small, ice - filled drinks are way overpriced too. $3 for about 4oz of lemonade with no free refills. Ouch! The food bill was only $65 but it was $30 for drinks because everyone refilled their small 10-12 oz glasses that were filled to the brim with ice. For $3 per short glass I wish Ihad known refills were not included. This food has no authentic flavor and wwasn't prepared well. I would not recommend to eat here.

My husband and I came in the other day for dinner while visiting in St Louis. WOW!!! The food and service were amazing. I got the garlic chicken kabobs, but I have to say that the dish that stood out would NEVER be one I picked for myself... The beef tongue. My husband loves that kind of stuff! I took a few bites to "try" it and it literally tasted like the butteriest pot roast I've ever had. Thanks for the awesome food experience, and I would definitely eat the tongue again if we ever find ourselves out this way again!!!!

One of our favorite places in Grand area! The food is delicious and the owners are warm and friendly. Our favorites; best hummus in town, best steak kebob, chicken shwarma and falafel. You MUST try the persian ice cream, it's dreamy!
