Grill Sélect - Persian Restaurants in West Island

Kirkland

Review Summary

Grill Sélect comes across as a warm, family run spot with a clean, inviting atmosphere and attentive service. Reviewers praise the high quality Persian dishes, with koobideh, barg and joojeh kebabs described as consistently juicy, tender and flavorful. Many call it among the best Persian food in Montreal, with lamb chops and even calamar frit earning standout mentions. The ambiance is cozy and unpretentious, and the BYOB option plus takeout are frequently appreciated. Portions are generally generous and prices are reasonable, though a few notes mention one Gohrme Sabzi dish arriving in a smaller portion or with lower quality, and an acidic salad or chicken with an off odor in one visit. Fridays can be very busy and parking is not ideal, but service remains friendly and efficient. Overall, Grill Sélect is viewed as a reliable favorite for authentic flavors and a true kebab destination, frequently praised for consistent quality, welcoming staff, and a warm, homey vibe.View restaurant profile
