J'suis allé deux fois pis chaque fois, c'tait juste parfait. J'ai essayé des plats iraniens comme le kebab, le Baghali Ghatogh pis le Mirza Ghasemi… tout était super bon! En plus, le gâteau à la pistache avec un p'tit thé, wow… un vrai délice.
This is by far one of the best food spots I've been to in Montreal. The service was impeccable, they were very friendly & helpful in choosing what to eat. The food was delicious & wonderfully spiced. We loved the decorations & also got to enjoy some board games after our meal - there's a shelf where you can take any game & play!

Bravo.
Super restaurant ! Nous sommes venus pour bruncher, & la formule déjeuner était vraiment adéquate :D le Persian latte était aussi très bon, dispo avec du lait végétal
This is a five star place for us.
Caring staff, tasty food, & beautiful place.
Our friends suggested this place & I had kebab Tabei. The tomato paste gave it its taste I was expecting.
They also considered our food restriction & prepared special omelette for us which was so delicious.
We loved the decoration & all the Persian rugs decorating the place.
I recommend this place if you want to enjoy your time & have good food & nice service.
Hands down one of the best Iranian restaurants !
Food is soooo good & authentic! The sweets are perfect ! The service is great! The personnel is so nice, very friendly & professional. The ice cream is soooo tasty. The atmosphere is pleasant! I strongly recommend this amazing restaurant!
Lovely atmosphere, the soft drink(Yakh dar behesht) , Persian ice cream is heaven😋highly recommended!I also loved the chicken & barberry kuku sandwich, & you should try the saffron cake which is moist & delicious. Don't forget about the Persian breakfast! 🍳 🧋 I tried Haleem from different persian restaurant in Montreal & I can defenitly say that Haleem here was made superrrr good & tasty! (Not sour). Ghormeh sabzi was perfectly made too & it was so delicious! Everything is homemade! Highly recommended!
Really nice & well decorated cafe. Mirza ghasemi & koluche fooman were tasty 🤤 but I didn't like saffron cake. It had a somewhat watery texture & wasn't as firm as I expected. The staff were kind & nice but the service was a bit slow.
This is a beautiful gem. The owners are amazing couple with friendly personalities. We love the baklava cake & the Persian latte, Baklava latte was to die for. Love it 😍 Give this place a try & it will not disappoint.
Honestly some of the most delicious food I've had in a long time. Also, staff is super friendly & we got our food quickly. Will be a go-to when I'm in Montreal from now on!
We went for new year, it felt like family!
Food was sooo tasty 😋 & we really enjoyed it 😍
Staff are so friendly & welcoming & the vibes of restaurants is amazing 🤩
Can't wait to go there again soon & spoil ourselves with amazing hospitality & food 😊
The place was full of agitated barking dogs the day we went, some dogs were not even on leash. Staff refused to let us go upstairs even though we said we were disturbed by the aggressive dogs & 1 of us was allergic. The 2nd floor was not reserved nor busy, they just did not feel like letting people go there to avoid having to climb stairs so it was out of laziness! But since the reason we asked was potential danger grom dogs it's even more unacceptable that they would refuse that. How can a business reject clients? How can a restaurant refuse access to their own tables?! It was several hours before closing time so it cannot be for cleaning reason either. If this is a place reserved for dogs then you should specify it clearly so that people who are allergic or afraid would not bother come in. & it's not dgos fault either, we witnessed how uncomfortable & irritated they were of being confined in such a small space with strangers not ebough room & very noisy people. It was such a big noisy dirty mess right next to the counter so people waiting in line were also squeezed...i never seen anything like it, it was all bad for both clients & dogs poor things could not wait to get out of there! Also, I was told that Persian latte had honey in it but there was zero sweetness in it, not even a little bit. I think they say that but never actuallg put in honey to save money maybe? Also, i expected the drink would like blend the flavours, but actually the spices & pistachios just float on top so the taste is just coffee & milk & you cannot get any fragrance out of it even after mixing. My friend thought baklava was ok. Overall big unexpected disappointment, waste of money that I regret. Was hoping to try other drinks but it was so unwelcoming i cannot bring myself to risk going back there again...
