Excellent restaurant. The kafta was the best I have ever eaten in my life, fresh, flavorful, & perfectly prepared. El Mira served us with great kindness & professionalism, a polite & welcoming young lady who made us feel at home. I came with my son & my nephew, & the whole experience felt like eating a warm family meal. Highly recommended.

Just a great experience for a midday meal. Classic soups & stews for us which were really nicely prepared & presented. Special nod to the service which was friendly & efficient. Highly recommended checking this place out.
Vraiment une superbe découverte! Les kebabs chez Bonab Kabob sont incroyablement tendres, savoureux & remplis de vraies saveurs authentiques - parmi les meilleurs que j'ai goûtés à Montréal. Les roulades & le baklava étaient frais & délicieux, & le thé chaud par une soirée froide rend l'expérience encore meilleure. Un vrai petit trésor. Je recommande fortement!
Absolutely amazing experience at Bonab Kabob! The kebabs were incredibly tender, juicy, & full of rich authentic flavour - some of the best I've had in Montréal. The rolled cakes & baklava were fresh & delicious, & the warm tea on a cold snowy night made everything perfect. A true hidden gem. Highly recommended!

Service great, food fresh & atmosphere was warm & friendly. We had a family gathering here with 12 guests. Our service from Kiana was excellent. Portions were large & can easily be shared. The dishes looked good & the taste was even better. Bonab kebab(all lamb) was great! Bring your own wine & they will serve for you. Highly recommend this place for small or large gatherings!
Best Persian restaurant in town! After trying a few other Persian spots, none have come close to meeting my expectations like this one. The food is absolutely delicious, the portions are generous, & the prices offer great value for money.
Mahin provided excellent service. She was very kind, quick, & professional, making sure we had everything we needed. Even with only two waitresses working, the service was outstanding.
The decor is beautiful & creates a warm, authentic atmosphere, enhanced by the lovely traditional music. Thank you again for the amazing food & wonderful experience. Highly recommended!
