With Valet Parking, a warm friendly staff, delicious and authentic Indian/Persian cuisine - AND - a beautiful outdoor deck, softly lit - to dine when weather permits - which it did for us - we couldn't have had a more perfect evening. Lamb shank to die for! So, so good.

We went to Ozra for the first time and enjoyed our meal very much, though we perhaps didn't order as wisely as possible. We had soup and beet salad for our first course, and beef-okra stew and beef-chicken kebabs as our main course. All the food was well prepared, and service was friendly and efficient. What we should have ordered was more items with distinctive Persian spices, which we had in the stew. The other dishes were very pleasant and suitable for people who prefer less spicy food. We did enjoy the addition of the condiments on the table and probably should have requested more of the spicy green sauce, which we'll do on a future visit.

This restaurant is a must visit. The food is carefully prepared and presented and VERY delicious. Love that you choose from a variety of rices to accompany your meal. Our waitress was great--very welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. We went during restaurant week to check it out and will definitely be going back.

Amazing food and unique menu tucked away between Baltimore's Inner Harbor and Little Italy. Waitstaff was knowledgeable and attentive, and the prices were reasonable. The eggplant-based appetizers (we had a sampler of all three) and the flavored rices that came with the entrees were all delicious. Many of the entrees looked great, and we really enjoyed the stews that we chose. It's our new go-to spot for dining when visiting Baltimore.

Though Ozra has been there for two years, we just discovered it. We didn't expect to find a Persian restaurant in the middle of Little Italy. However, it was a very nice surprise, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The owner came over a few times and the waiter could not have been more accommodating. We will definitely return now that we know it exists and will bring others.

Sadly, we will not be returning to Ozra. We really wanted to like the place and we love Persian food but this place missed all the marks. Initial Impression: Should have known it was a bad sign when we showed up for our 6:30 reservation and there was only one other couple in the restaurant. Décor: Very nice looking place. Décor was modern and everything was very clean. We ate on the deck outside which was very pretty with the garden. Service: Everyone was very nice and attentive, but probably not that hard when you have 1 customer. Food: We started with the eggplant mirza which was decent. Not anything to write home about. My boyfriend got a combo and what a disappointment. The lamb and steak were seasoned ok. Felt like something we could have made at home! But that's not the worst part. The "mixed sautéed veggie side" was really just steamed frozen veggies. What the?! Why would a restaurant even serve that? He overpaid for that dish at $24. I got gahmeih (sp?) which was pretty good but again nothing I would go back for. Overall we were extremely disappointed. Do not go to Ozra.

Ozra is a small restaurant serving authentic Persian cuisine. The restaurant is tastefully decorated, the food is great and the service is excellent. Everyone is friendly and helpful. It has the feel of an authentic family enterprise. I highly recommend trying Ozra.
