What each listing shows

Every listing provides essential contact details — phone number, physical address, opening hours, and direct website links. Many profiles include photos, service summaries, and notes indicating where staff speak Farsi.

Every submission is manually reviewed before publication to confirm the business is active and contact information is accurate. Professional licenses, credentials, and insurance are not independently verified, so choosing a provider remains your responsibility.

Nowruz and community events

Kentucky’s Iranian community comes together each spring for Nowruz, alongside cultural events organized through university Iranian student associations (ISAs) and local cultural networks across Louisville and Lexington.

Local markets and specialty eateries accept advance orders for Nowruz essentials — including sabzi polo with fish, traditional sweets, and haft-sin items — so calling ahead a few weeks early is recommended.

• Ohio (Cincinnati & Columbus): Located just across the river, offering an expanded network of Persian markets, fine dining, and specialists.
