About

Behesht Restaurant specializes in the preparation of authentic Persian cuisine centered on the art of the traditional charcoal grill. Guests encounter a menu defined by succulent skewers of marinated lamb, chicken, and beef, each served alongside aromatic basmati saffron rice. The culinary selection emphasizes the use of fresh herbs and bold spices consistent with regional culinary traditions. Beyond the grilled meats, the kitchen prepares a variety of cold and warm salads, featuring ingredients such as cucumbers, tomatoes, fresh mint, and yogurt with shallots. These vibrant vegetable components provide a crisp balance to the savory, flame-seared proteins presented at every table. The preparation techniques remain focused on highlighting the quality of raw ingredients through expert heat management. The dining environment maintains a consistent focus on the delivery of these staple Persian dishes for all patrons.

It used to be good but the koobedeh meat smells like lamb's wool is served uncooked to pretend to be juicy. Moreover, the Mirza Ghasemi also does not use roasted eggplant, but canned eggplant.

At first it was good, but the few times I came, the food was terrible & we couldn't eat. I can say it's the worst Iranian restaurant in Montreal

First time trying Persian cuisine. We went on a weekday, so the restaurant was calm with no big crowds.

Atmosphere & decor: 10/10
Service: 10/10
Tea: 10/10
Food: 6.5/10. The lamb shank had too much tomato sauce & wasn't very enjoyable. The kobebiahs were delicious they were juicy & tender. The soup was tasty & warm. The salad was also good.

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

Ils ont un menu spécial pour le diner pendant la semaine (de midi à 15h) qui offre des plats comme Koubideh à 14.99$.
Je l'ai choisi, mais quand la serveuse m'a apporté l'addition, j'ai remarqué que ce n'est pas le même prix affiché dans le menu & c'est beaucoup plus cher. Quand j'ai demandé la raison, la serveuse m'a dit que c'est uniquement quand vous payez comptant (histoire de ne pas payer la taxe par la commerce) alors que ce n'était pas du tout indiqué sur le menu.
Le Koobideh aussi était très salé.
De plus, j'ai constaté que la serveuse avait un comportement très différent entre les clients iraniens & non-iraniens. Elle est venue demandé à plusieurs reprises aux clients non-iraniens s'ils avaient besoin de quelque chose alors qu'elle n'est jamais venue me poser la question.
Je vous recommande pas d'y aller.

Nice decor & ambiance. The chicken kebab was good. Koobideh not as much. Service was good. Food presentation was above average.
