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.

Unfortunately, they provide very poor quality food & the cook is rude, & most interestingly, the waiter determines the amount of their tip before serving you the food.

We always go here for amazing Persian cuisine that is authentic. Love their grilled meat platters & customary rice.

The food quality was excellent - authentic Iranian flavors, with delicious rice, saffron, & kebabs. The atmosphere was pleasant with soft, enjoyable music, & the staff were friendly, smiling, & very efficient.

Really disappointed with my experience here. The chicken for the zereshk polo was actually good, but the rice was some of the worst I've had - it smelled off & wasn't fluffy at all, making it hard to eat. The koobideh was also disappointing; it wasn't juicy & tasted more like a burger patty than traditional koobideh. The one bright spot was the gentleman serving us, who was very nice & welcoming throughout the visit. Unfortunately, the food quality just didn't meet expectations.

In my opinion, this is the best Iranian restaurant in Montreal right now. I tried the Toranj Platter, which was delicious, followed by their Napoleon pastry & tea-it was the perfect combination. The food quality is consistent, & the staff are incredibly friendly & welcoming. If you're looking for authentic Persian flavors & a warm atmosphere, this is definitely the place to go.

Everything was so good & fresh! I really loved that they're vegetarian-friendly. & let me tell you the asheh reshteh was out of this world (the best I've had so far). The vegetarian fesenjoon was absolutely delicious too! The service was on point 👌🏽 Honestly, everything was perfect. Thank you to the whole team! 10/10

Ordered the gheymeh on ubereats. It had barely any beef at all & was mostly just peas, which were also very hard & didn't seem fully cooked.
