The kebab here was absolutely delicious, with perfect flavor & seasoning 👌.
Mahin served us & she was wonderfully attentive, which made the experience even better 🙏.
This place serves the BEST kebab in Montreal, no question about it! Juicy, flavorful, & perfectly grilled every time. I've tried kebabs all over the city, but nothing comes close to the taste & quality here. On top of that, the staff are warm & welcoming. If you're craving authentic, mouth-watering kebab, this is the place to go!
This is a very high quality restaurant with authentic tastes of middle east, specially persian kebab. The staffs are super welcoming & do their best to serve & create an enjoyable environnement for the clients. I highly recommend not one time, many many times.
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!

The quality of chicken kebab was perfect, it was soft & fully cooked & delicious. The employees had friendly behaviour. I recommend this restaurant for who wants to enjoy Persian meals.
Bonab continues to impress iranians & guests of iranians alike with consistently juicy & flavourful kebabs.
This is a family favourite for the past four years & continues to be our go-to delivery whenever we have non Iranian guests.
While their lengthy menu has plenty of variety, the kebabs remain the jewels of the selection. Their jujeh (chicken) kebab is moist & full of aromatic saffron. Their beef kebabs are consistent & cooked well.
While their stews & appetizers are not as spectacular, they still offer a delicious variety. The Mirza Ghasemi by far being the best selection of appetizer.
Having dined inside, as well as taken to go, as well as asked for delivery, we are well acquainted with all mediums of order.
When dining in, the staff were not the most hospitable. Unsure if this would extend to non-persian speakers but since our first dine in experience we have had positive interactions over the phone & when taking to go. It remains to be seen if their in-person service has improved. We hope they continue to represent our culture in service as well as their amazing food.
Their delivery website works as a cheaper alternative to Uber. Despite the conveniences, tracking & customer support Uber offers, we hope that ordering from their website gives the proceeds directly to the business as opposed to intermediaries. We wish to support local & our own as much as possible.
All in all a positive experience & one that is frequently recommended as a staple of Montreal's Iranian community.
Bonab Kebob is hands down one of the best Persian restaurants I've ever been to! The food is fresh, flavorful, & cooked to perfection. The kebabs are juicy & tender, especially the koobideh, which melts in your mouth. Their saffron rice is fragrant & pairs
perfectly with the grilled meats.
Beyond the food, the service is top-notch-friendly, attentive, & welcoming. The atmosphere is warm & inviting, making it a great spot for both casual meals & special occasions.
If you're looking for authentic Persian cuisine, Bonab Kebob is a must-visit! I can't wait to come back. Highly recommended! 🔥👌🍢

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.
I got two portions of koobideh from Banab Kebab's (Wednesday & Thursday )special offer today. Since I had ordered from them before, I expected it to be just as delicious. Each portion was $15.99, but I think it was very different from their regular food. I really didn't like it at all. The kebab tasted like onions & cartilage, & it was extremely dry. The quality was significantly lower compared to the koobideh I had previously ordered. Maybe because it was a special offer, they compromised on quality!
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!
Delicious kebab & amazing service! The food was perfectly seasoned, & the waitress(mahin)was attentive & friendly. Highly recommend for an authentic Persian dining experience!

The atmosphere is pleasant, but the kebab was disappointing-it didn't taste authentic. Additionally, the rice had an unpleasant smell, which overall fell far below my expectations.
The Best Iranian Kebab in Montreal! I recently visited kebab Bonab in Montreal, & it absolutely lives up to its reputation as the #1 spot for authentic Iranian kebabs. From the moment I walked in, the welcoming atmosphere & the aroma of freshly grilled kebabs set the tone for a fantastic experience. The food was exceptional! The koobideh was perfectly seasoned, tender, & juicy - easily the best I've had outside of Iran. The portions were generous, & the sides (especially the saffron rice & grilled tomatoes) complemented the meal beautifully. The service was attentive & friendly, making sure every detail was taken care of. Whether you're looking for a taste of home or trying Persian cuisine for the first time, kebab Bonab is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended for anyone who loves authentic, high-quality kebabs!
