Review Summary

Café Parfums de Perse offers a warm, inviting atmosphere that blends Persian culture with a modern, cozy cafe vibe, where Persian latte, pistachio and saffron cakes, baklava and other desserts are frequently highlighted as heavenly and beautifully presented. Dishes such as Dizi Abgoosht, Baghali Polo with lamb shank, Fesenjan, Mirza Ghasemi and Ghormeh Sabzi showcase authentic flavors and thoughtful preparation, often described as homemade and comforting, with guests noting generous portions and a family run staff that makes visitors feel welcomed. The place is also loved for its games and board games that invite lingering, and for a vibe that feels like a home away from home. While the ambiance and hospitality are consistently praised, some comments mention higher prices for desserts and certain menu items, occasional inconsistency in taste, and a need for improvements in service during busy times.

Very friendly staff! They offered us a Persian cold drink while we were waiting to get a table. We tried pistachio cake & black tea, also tried the Saffron pistachio ice cream, very tasty 😊 I hope upstairs will be open soon!

This was one of the best experiences I've had at a Persian café in Montreal. The venue is fully accessible & accommodating for people with disabilities & those using assistive devices. The accessible washroom was a particularly nice touch. The café also features a charming patio & a cozy indoor ambiance. I visited on a rainy day & arrived much earlier than my scheduled meeting with a friend. Despite being a first-time customer, I was treated like an old friend. The quality of the coffee, tea, & food was excellent, & the prices were very reasonable. I tried their Persian coffee, Persian tea, & mirza ghasemi, all of which were delightful. What stood out most to me was their hospitality-they had no issue with me sitting there for a couple of hours before my friend arrived. They ensured I was comfortable, even providing access to a power outlet so I could work on my laptop. They struck the perfect balance between attentive care & giving me the privacy I needed to feel at ease. They even went above & beyond by assisting me to the washroom, which I found incredibly considerate. When I thanked them, they responded warmly, saying, "Don't mention it; we're here for you." This is definitely a place I'll be returning to, & I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys Persian food, a warm ambiance, & an accessible space in the heart of Old Port Montreal.

Absolutely lovely place! Came for breakfast & enjoyed an amazing platter of veggies, stewed lentils, & the most INCREDIBLE omelette. Absolutely delicious & tasted like the best home cooking. Service was 10/10 (they gave us a delicious rose slushie on the house while we were chatting with the owners) & we thoroughly enjoyed the Darjeeling tea as well. Could not recommend enough. Definitely a hidden gem!!!

This cafe is wonderful from start to finish. This is comfort food with no ego, just excellent cooking with warm & friendly service. I wish I lived here so I could come back weekly - uh, SO GOOD! I had the special, which was a chicken dish in a nearly black sauce over saffron rice - don't know what it was called. I also had the ice in heaven drink & a saffron cake, of course with tea after.

We stopped in the week after they opened here. The family who operates this café are very warm & friendly. We didn't know what to order so they made great suggestions for us. We had a lamb dish in traditional spices served along side a basmati type rice. It was delicious. The tea served after our meal was exceptional as well as a house made pistachio cake. We can't wait to go back!
