Good persian restaurant in Montreal with good Kebab, & this is coming from me, a persian. The kebab is very juicy, the rice is delicious & the portions are great for the price. Each food portion comes with a side of choice, for which I suggest you get the ASH. Bless this restaurant for reminding me of home.
There is nothing quite like a well-executed Persian meal, & tonight was a total triumph. From the rich, herbaceous depth of the Ash Reshte to the succulent, smoky notes of the Kobideh, every bite felt intentional & authentic. The rice was a fragrant cloud, & the saffron ice cream provided a golden, cooling finish. The warm service (shoutout to our lovely waitress!That smile…) made an already great meal feel like a special occasion. A neighborhood gem!
We thoroughly enjoyed the Bonab kebab & kebab torsh, both of which were incredibly tender. The dish was served with a side of ashe kashk, adding to its appeal. The staff were warm & welcoming, & they kindly offered us a pastry & a cup of tea to complement our meal.
It was really delicious. The koobideh kebab, Bonab kebab, chicken kebab, ash, & baklava were all great. The service was good, & they also had a great 4-person platter offer.
We had a great time at the restaurant! The main dish comes with your choice of ash or salad - we chose the ash, & it was absolutely delicious.
We ordered the Bonab kebab, which was flavorful. After the meal, they kindly offered complimentary tea.
The restaurant was clean, & the staff were very warm & welcoming. I was especially touched by the beautiful photos of Iranian cities hung on the wall- they added a charming & authentic atmosphere.

Nous avons commandé deux portions de kebab ainsi qu'une entrée d'Ash. Les portions étaient très généreuses, la viande savoureuse & parfaitement assaisonnée. Tout était frais, de grande qualité & vraiment délicieux. Une excellente expérience culinaire que je recommande vivement!
Visited this place with family for lunch
Loved the quality of their food, they had the most fluffiest rice ever
Their food comes with either salad or ash reshteh
Had both & they were pretty decent
Their bonab negin dar could be improved but nothing wrong with it
I enjoyed my time there
The staff are so polite
We were a group of 16 people with kids, the staff accommodated us very professionally & efficiently. The food quality was great & service was very good. I had ash reshte as appetizer, Bonab kebab & chenjeh torsh as main dishes, everything tasted so good & they came in a reasonable portion size. Highly recommended. Thanks to Ms Mahin for making our experience so pleasant.
I think it's the only Persian restaurant in Montreal! So it worth visiting but I've eaten better Persian food in European countries! But I liked the vibe & staff were friendly & offered me Ash for free!

Super Persian food in the NDG district. We ordered the fantastic ash reshteh soup, joojeh kebab with bone & barg skewer, Served with ample rice & butter & sumac. The Persian tea at the end of the meal was wonderful, as was the baklava.
Absolutely fantastic! The ash reshteh was perfectly cooked & full of flavor, while the kebab was tender & delicious. The warm & friendly staff made the experience even more enjoyable. Thanks dear Helia!
Very delicious food & warm hosts!! We were visiting from NYC & this was the best spot for some delicious ghorme sabzi, ash reshte & bonab kabob. The hosts & atmosphere are super lovely. A must go to persian restaurant in Montréal!

My son loves their Ash & chicken koobideh, delicious!The Soltani is a must try. We had the zeitoon parvarde/ their special olives it's to die for. The service was quick. Staff were very friendly.
I like their ASH RESHTEH (a thick Persian style soup) dish which is served before any order for free. My experience with their Kashk-o-Bademjaan (dripped yougurt with aubergine) was a very delicious dish that I had in Persian restaurant in Montreal. As an Iranian culture they serve a free tea with some sugar cube aside, after each meal before you leave.
Très bon restaurant, j'ai commandé pour remporter. Le barg (filet mignon) était tendre. Le riz (au safran) est certainement l'un des meilleurs des riz iraniens dans les restaurants de Montréal. Le ash richteh (soupe au pois etc) était excellent, ainsi que le mirza ghasemi (purée d'aubergines grillées).
