Café Parfums de Perse offre une ambiance chaleureuse et accueillante qui mêle culture persane et esprit de café contemporain, avec des latte persans, des gâteaux à la pistache et au safran, du baklava et d autres desserts souvent décrits comme divins et joliment présentés. Les plats tels que Dizi Abgoosht, Baghali Polo au jarret d'agneau, Fesenjan, Mirza Ghasemi et Ghormeh Sabzi témoignent de saveurs authentiques et faites maison, préparées avec soin, tandis que l'endroit familial et le personnel chaleureux invitent à rester pour jouer à des jeux de société et profiter de l'ambiance cosy. Si les critiques soulignent globalement la qualité et l'accueil, certaines remarques évoquent des prix élevés pour les desserts et certains plats, des incohérences ponctuelles dans le goût, ainsi que des améliorations possibles au niveau du service et du bruit. Dans l'ensemble, Café Parfums de Perse est présenté comme une halte incontournable pour goûter une cuisine persane authentique à Montréal, avec une expérience conviviale et réconfortante.
wonderful owner, very welcoming & warm. They have multiples vegetarian options for meals. Very filling. The labneh was delicious & enhanced the flavour so much. The persian fog was a bit subtle in flavour for my taste, but it was made with a lot of love. The place has a lot of board games available for people to enjoy, & they also offer alcoholic drinks too. i think it would be a cute date spot. Have yet to try their desserts but they look delicious so i will definitely come back!
I don't usually write reviews, but I felt this experience needed to be shared. I came to meet friends who had already been told that outside food wasn't allowed. We respected the rule, & every single person in the group ordered something, drinks, cakes, or both.
Despite that, we felt watched the entire time. The owner's reaction to a small piece of baklava in a tupperware created an extremely uncomfortable atmosphere that overshadowed the fact that we were paying customers. The constant angry staring from behind the counter made us feel unwelcome rather than appreciated.
We ended up leaving early & continuing our meetup elsewhere. Unfortunately, this isn't a place I plan to return to.

A calm, warm space with warm, elegant Iranian design that feels completely contemporary.
It's the kind of place where time slows down where sitting with friends or family, sipping your favorite drink, actually feels nourishing.
& if you're lucky enough to catch their pumpkin cake, pistachio cake, or saffron cake… don't think twice.
Fresh, comforting, & quietly unforgettable.
The food carries the soul of Northern Iran from rich Fesenjoon to comforting Baghali Ghatogh or smoky Mirza Ghassemi.
Simple, honest flavors that feel like home.
A place to relax, recharge, & leave a little happier than you arrived.
everything about my experience here exceeded expectations! the decor is beautiful, the employees were incredibly welcoming & the food & drinks left my friends & i speechless. i will definitely be coming back here & recommend to everyone i know!!
I feel so welcome anytime I come here. The owners are the sweetest family! I love that it's so versatile - a great place to study, hang out over board games, drink, have a meal. & anything on their menu is sure to be amazing :-)
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!

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...
🍽FOOD - we ordered Ash reshte, Gheime, & walnut cake, the ash reshte & cake was amazing that we decided to order take-out as well. 👨🍳SERVICE - There are so kind & caring, & Deeba made sure that we have all we need & welcom us with a traditional drink. 🏡AMBIANCE: I really liked the design on the wall, which perfectly represents persian carpet & art. 💰VALUE - This order costs about $74 & take out about $33 for two Ash.

I really love this place, last time we got the pistachio cake & the pistachio ice cream & they were SO GOOD!!! I also love that you can play board games while enjoying their drinks. I'd love to try their food next time!!
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 place was such a delight. If you're going to the Vieux Port de Montréal, I suggest starting here. Lots of street parking. Super kind, friendly, & generous service, reflective of Persian hospitality. We were made to feel right at home, including our pup 😍 The decor is lovely; they have an upstairs & a street terrace. The Persian latte is absolutely delicious! The pistachio cake is very comforting & clearly homemade. They also have meals & lots of sweets & drinks to choose from. Would return
I liked the vibes. The business is run by the family. They are very kind & caring. They have homemade traditional saffron ice-cream. So delicious. The owner offered me the slush drink for free while I was waiting for my friend. I got a dish to go! It was packed with care not to spill. I liked the experience & recommend it.
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.
