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.

Nous avons vraiment adoré notre expérience. Le stationnement gratuit & facilement accessible est un excellent avantage. À l'intérieur, l'espace est chaleureux & la décoration très soignée crée une ambiance accueillante. Les plats sont délicieux : l'assaisonnement est juste, la cuisson parfaitement maîtrisée & la viande tendre & de très bonne qualité. Le tout offre un rapport qualité?prix remarquable. J'aurais simplement apprécié une musique d'ambiance plus traditionnelle pour compléter cette belle expérience

Food was mediocre, although being from Vancouver, I know my expectations are high for Persian food. Atmosphere was ok, I think we were there at their quieter time so it was pleasant. The staff member was very friendly & helpful.
I was quite surprised by their price range as it was on the higher end despite the medium quality.

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. However both dishes were unfortunately not served hot. The soup was tasty & warm. The salad was also good.

The food here is incredible & the restaurant looks amazing, but I had a bit of a'yikes' moment. I ran into one of the cooks in the bathroom & they were wearing their culinary black uniform & apron inside the stall. It's such a shame because everything else was perfect, but that's a pretty big food safety no-no. Just wanted to flag it because the flavors & the vibe are otherwise top-notch! ⭐?⭐?⭐?

The dishes are absolutely delicious & full of flavor, with very reasonable prices. The traditional setting & Iranian architecture truly reflect the rich culture. The staff are exceptionally kind & welcoming, making you feel like a valued guest. Definitely an experience everyone should try!
Thank you so much!
