My husband & I came here two nights in a row on a recent weekend trip to Montreal. The food is delicious (especially the saffron cake!) & everyone who works here is so kind & welcoming. I definitely plan to come back the next time I'm in town.
If you're ever in Montreal & craving a taste of authentic Persian cuisine, this charming café is a must-visit. Nestled in the heart of the city, it offers a true taste of northern Iran with dishes that transport you straight to the region. From the moment you step inside, the hospitality is incredibly warm & welcoming-it's as though you've been invited into a home, rather than just a café. Can't wait to go back.
I love this place - the owners are hardworking people, super kind & willing to support you to choose wisely 😀. After a long run, a lazy Sunday or a quick scape during the week, this place has games, books & a great atmosphere. Thank you for everything ❤?
Incredible hospitality & service. Delicious, authentic, food. Beautiful, intimate, bustling space. I was fortunate to eat here on a visit to Montreal & it's on my go-to list for every future visit. They have a small kitchen so when braised menu items are sold out, they're done - so go earlier in the evening if you have a specific menu item in mind. Massive congratulations to the family owners who make every customer feel so welcome.
Extremely warm welcome. Great service. First time trying Persian food & it was so good. Must try coconut cake, the tea & the persian latte. The gheyme was good too. But my favorite was the tea with cake. Much love to the amazing owners for the great experience❤?❤?
I recently visited Parfums de Perse with my Québécois friend, who has been learning Persian & was excited to practice with the staff. When he spoke Persian, the waitress was very impressed & kind to him, which was nice to see. However, what followed left me quite uncomfortable. In Persian, she jokingly told me,'Bravo for teaching him Persian, I hope we can destroy their language.' She repeated it twice, & even the cashier later made a similar comment. I was genuinely surprised-why would we talk about'destroying' the language of the country we live in? Language is about connection & respect, & I can't imagine how my friend would have felt if he had understood their remarks.
As for the food, I ordered Pan kebab, which was decent, & Ash, which was delicious. We also had two cakes & two lattes, both of which were very good. However, another odd experience happened with the bill. During our meal, the waitress insisted we try garlic pickles, & later, after we had finished our dessert, she enthusiastically offered us another type of cake: Ghotab, saying it was fresh & delicious. Her tone & warmth made it seem like a complimentary treat, so we were surprised to find everything-including the pickles & the extra cake-added to the bill. It wasn't about the $7 extra, but the way it was done left us feeling a bit manipulated.
Overall, the food was enjoyable, but the experience was mixed. While the staff was extremely friendly, the comments about language were inappropriate, & the way additional items were added to the bill felt misleading. I hope this was just a misunderstanding, but I believe a more transparent & respectful approach would make the experience better for everyone.
If you're wondering which place is top tier in hospitality & customer service, this is the right place for you!
The food is very good; however, I think they need a signature item to specialize at & offer it exclusively, because most of their items can be found in other Persian restaurants as well. Mind you the last time I've been there was around 5-6 months ago, so things might have been changed. But overall, it is a great place with perfect atmosphere & EXCELLENT customer service. They make you feel welcomed & comfortable!
This family-run café feels incredibly welcoming & homey. The food is delicious, flavorful & homemade. The attentive staff especially Saba which is the best host, consistently checked on us, offering tea & even suggesting board games. The unique nostalgic décor adds to the charming atmosphere. Highly recommended!
