I have been to this restaurant twice, the first time the food was a bit cold but well cooked & delicious. Second time was Yalda night & the restaurant was full so we had to wait along time until we can get in & the entrance was packed. They could simply write down our names & ask us to wait in the car not to be standing in the entrance for a good 20mins & then both kebab & the rice were not well cooked because they were so busy they didn't take the time to cook it well. They just wanted to serve more customers so they sacrificed quality. You should learn that sometimes you should give up on money not to lose your loyal customers. So I will not be going to this place anymore although I love the atmosphere & design.

Amazing food, beautiful ambience & the staff were very professional & courteous! Iranian kebabs are my most
favourite, particularly, Kebab Koobideh!

We had a wonderful experience at Behesht Restaurant. The food was excellent & full of authentic Persian flavours. We tried the Koobideh, Barg, & Joojeh kebabs, & all of them were delicious, tender, & very well prepared.
The appetizers were also fantastic. We especially loved the marinated olives (Zeytoon Parvardeh) & the garlic torshi (Sir Torshi) - both were absolutely delicious.
The staff were friendly, welcoming, & professional, & the service throughout our meal was excellent.
Great Persian food, great service, & a very enjoyable experience. **Definitely a place we would visit again when we are in Montreal. Highly recommended!

'Behesht has a beautiful interior & the dishes look just like the menu photos, but the taste didn't match the presentation. The kebab's meat & rice were just okay, the soup & salad unimpressive, & they didn't serve onions with the kebab. Service felt a bit inattentive too. Overall, the ambiance was nice, but the food & service fell short.'

Stepping into Behesht feels like escaping the neighborhood hustle & walking straight into a cozy, authentic corner of Persia. The space hits you with an immediate sense of warmth brick accents, ornate traditional brassware, & rich textiles setting an inviting, transportive tone before you even take a seat. The irresistible aroma of wood-charred meats, fried mint, & saffron drifting from the kitchen instantly lets you know you're in for a exceptional feast.

?The meal opens brilliantly with Kashk-e Bademjan, a rich, warm eggplant dish slow-cooked until velvety smooth & layered with caramelized onions, garlic, & dried mint. Drizzled with tangy fermented whey (kashk) & crowned with crispy fried onions (piaz dagh), it delivers a deep, smoky-savory punch that demands to be scooped up with fresh flatbread.
?That leads right into the showstopping Persian Kebab Platter, served family-style on a heavy, hammered metal tray.

The charcoal-grilled lineup hits every mark: juicy, hand-formed Kebab Koobideh packed with onion & saffron aromatics; vibrant Joojeh Kebab featuring tender chicken marinated in lemon, yogurt, & saffron; & beautifully charred cuts of Barg beef cooked over open coals for maximum depth. Balanced by blistered fire-roasted tomatoes & sharp pickled red cabbage to cut through the richness, it's a generous, soul-warming meal that fully captures the heart of Persian hospitality.

The meat tasted like it wasn't fresh! The barg kebab was awful! Not worth even trying!

The food at the restaurant was excellent. We ordered the mixed platter for four people, & every single item was delicious. The koobideh kebab & the torsh kebab were especially outstanding. The service was exceptional, & the staff were incredibly friendly & welcoming.

Awful experience! We ordered both stew & kebab koobideh, & both were terrible. The quality of the meat & rice was truly below standard. I only ate two spoonfuls of my stew (ghormeh sabzi), & my guests ate just a couple of bites of their kebab out of politeness. I couldn't be more dissatisfied.

Kebab is perfect; joicy & delicious. However, the quality of rice (chelo) is not same as kebab. The portion is enough.
The staffs is very kind.
Compare to similar dishes, it is pricy.
