We had a great experience. The food was fresh & delicious, especially the kebabs, & the rice was excellent. The staff were very friendly, professional, & attentive. The restaurant was clean & welcoming, & our order was prepared quickly. We will definitely be coming back & highly recommend this restaurant to others.
I ordered Kebab Torsh from Bonab kebab through Uber Eats. The taste was super delicious but unfortunately it arrived completely cold, so I had to reheat it in the oven. Also, rice was an extra $3 which surprised me, so I chose bread instead! I asked if they could add some Tahdig which would have been a nice generous touch but they didn't include any :(
That being said, taste-wise, I highly recommend the Kebab Torsh!
Amazing experience! We came from Ottawa & have dined at many different restaurants over the years. I can confidently say that this was one of the best restaurants I have ever visited. The food was outstanding, the service was exceptional, & the overall experience exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be back & highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.
I had a great experience at Bonab Kebab Restaurant. We tried the kebab Torsh & Joojeh kebab, & both were absolutely delicious & made with high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, & friendly. The staff were very professional & kind. If I could give more than 5 stars, I definitely would. I highly recommend Bonab Kebab to anyone looking for delicious food.
I don't think this place can be called a restaurant. It's more like a cafe where you can eat. To be called a restaurant, they need higher-quality dishes & cutlery, not from Dollarama. & most importantly - clean glasses! Everyone's glasses were terrible, completely covered in water stains, I hope from clean water. Unacceptable! The interior is very simple, without any frills. The food was quite tasty, especially the meat. No issues. However, the salad was puzzling. It was just lettuce leaves generously drizzled with mayonnaise or some generic sauce. No taste, no respect for the customer. This is bachelor's food, not served in a restaurant. What can I say about dessert? The dessert was delicious! The most delicate sponge cake with wonderful cream, sprinkled with pistachios. I especially recommend the dessert. The service was very average, although our waiter tried very hard. However, he forgot some things from the order & had to remind. Overall impression: We were full. There was no sense of a festive dinner, just a simple meal. Will I come back here again? Unlikely.
