Reception
Emma Diab of Thrillist included Ravagh in her list of the city's best Middle Eastern restaurants in 2017.[4] Eater New York's Alexandra Ilyashov recommended Ravagh in her 2018 list of the city's Middle Eastern restaurants.[5] She, Ilana Dadras, and Urvija Banerji also included Ravagh in a 2020 list of Upper East Side restaurants.[6] Zagat rated the East Village restaurant 4.3 for food, 3.4 for decor, and 3.9 for service, each on a scale of 5, and said, "Among NYC's few options for classic Persian cooking, these Eastsiders dish up flavorful, stick-to-your-ribs fare including succulent kebabs and delicious rice dishes; generous portions and value prices offset the lacking decor.[7]
