"Khayyam Restaurant serves Persian cuisine, which is not so common in the Boston area. This makes it interesting. Otherwise (i.e. in terms of quality and service) it is a good restaurant, but not a truly exceptional restaurant."

"Interesting menu but the restaurant was totally lacking in ambience. No one was there and even with the nice staff it felt like a glorified diner.The Persian dessert was a joke, vanilla ice cream with orange drizzle that supposedly was saffron sauce, and it left a sour note on the meal. No reason to return."
