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.
Mostly food is delicious, staff & services ok, atmosphere not bad, prices reasonable, staff needs more training as not to explain kebab barg to non Iranian guest as steak!!!! Are you serious, kebab barg has nothing to do with steak , neither shape nor taste.
Also when I asked why gheime doesn't have tiny fries on it, she said she can bring me normal big chips from pitza Tehroon, as if she doesn't know nothing from food.
Overally I recommend this restaurant if you are not too picky.
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! 🔥👌🍢

Delicious kebab & amazing service! The food was perfectly seasoned, & the waitress(mahin)was attentive & friendly. Highly recommend for an authentic Persian dining experience!
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!

If you're looking for an authentic taste of Iran, look no further than kebab Bonab Restaurant. This restaurant offers a delightful culinary experience that transports you straight to the heart of Persian culture, with its warm ambiance & friendly service. The star of the show here is undoubtedly the kebab. I tried the Koobideh kebab, Tursh kebab,kebab Barg & it was simply sublime. The minced meat was expertly seasoned, perfectly grilled. Each bite was juicy & tender, accompanied by fluffy saffron rice that complemented the kebab beautifully. The grilled tomatoes & peppers on the side added a lovely smoky flavor that took the dish to another level. The menu features a variety of kebab options, including Joojeh kebab (chicken) & Barg kebab (lamb), all of which are marinated to perfection & cooked on a traditional skewer. The freshness of the ingredients is evident, & you can taste the love & care that goes into every dish. In addition to the kababs, I highly recommend trying the Mirza Ghasemi, a smoky eggplant dip, kashkBademjan , & Mast musir & their special Olive. The atmosphere is cozy, with Persian decor that creates a welcoming environment, making it perfect for a romantic dinner or a family gathering. The service was impeccable-attentive but not intrusive, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. At The end I should say Thanks To chef Mehdi, & other people behind in the kitchen, Also Thanks to all beautiful & kind waiters, Kiana,Helia,Elmira & dear Mahin I love you guys & I love Bonab keba
"I had a wonderful dining experience at Bonab restaurant. The food was delicious, especially the kebabs, which were cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was cozy & inviting, & the staff were very friendly & attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food & excellent service."
We order from Bonab Kabob very often, it's our favorite Iranian restaurant in NDG. The food is very good! Their portions are generous & the flavor very tasty. Friendly service & reasonable prices. We have also eaten there & they have a nice terrace. We highly recommend!!
The interior & exterior of the restaurant was very beautiful & pleasant, the food was delicious & excellent, & the staff was very professional & kind. Highly recommend.
Food was good, but service & atmosphere were excellent, Elmira worked very hard with a great hospitality, still I can't believe that she's just a waitress, she cares about everything & everyone like the owner. Highly recommended
I absolutely love this place. It's definitely one of my top two choices whenever I'm in the mood for some delicious kababs. The barg kebab is out of this world - it's incredibly tender, juicy, & just downright amazing. When you order a meal, you get to choose between a soup or a salad, & they even offer you tea afterwards. Don't even get me started on their pistachio cake - it's an absolute must-try. The service is pretty good, but I'd recommend reserving a table if you're planning to visit on a weekend. I should note that it's not wheelchair friendly, & it can get quite loud, especially on weekends. If you prefer a quieter atmosphere, I'd suggest visiting during the week.
