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.

Behesht Restaurant is widely regarded as a standout destination for authentic Persian cuisine in Montreal, frequently praised for its flavorful, high-quality grilled meats, fragrant rice, and generous portion sizes. Many guests are impressed by the restaurant's beautiful, traditional decor and welcoming atmosphere, noting that the staff is often kind, efficient, and professional. While the majority of visitors have an excellent experience, some reviews mention inconsistencies regarding food temperatures, occasional delays during busy periods, and mixed feelings about the value or freshness of specific dishes.

I mean it is Persian. But that doesn't mean everyone has to like it.

Arabic-Gulf restaurants do it better.

If you want perfectly grilled meats - this is it! It feel like you are welcomed into a Persian family's home - if that family happened to make unreal grilled meats & perfect rice every single time. The food is comforting, generous, & packed with flavour, & the atmosphere makes you want to slow down & truly enjoy your meal.

You can tell this place was built with heart. The decor is beautiful, everything is spotless, & the staff are incredibly warm & welcoming. The paintings & mosaics throughout the restaurant create such a unique ambiance - you can really see the time, care, & effort that went into making the space feel special.

Some of the best food I've had in MTL. The staff was so kind & pleasant, the food was off the charts delicious. Anita was our waitress & she was fantastic with her recommendations of food to choose, for sure deserves a big pay raise for how great she is at her job. I think we waited less than 15 mins for our entire meal! I can't wait to come back & show my friends how nice this place is.

Very clean, & professionally run restaurant. Great taste in decorations too.

The food was very nice. However, I had to wait for it a very long time, while the friends I was with all got their food already. They waited for me to get my food, but by the time I got my dish (after repeatedly asking the staff, who weren't very responsive or taking immediate action, in stead I needed to confirm my order twice), all their dishes had basically gone cold. No apologies, nothing even mentioned.
We were with six & got a table cornered against a pillar, so that I couldn't see the person on the other side of that pillar. Very strange configuration for a restaurant. Next time I would order the food to be delivered.
