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.View more

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!View more

This family-run café feels incredibly welcoming & homey. The food is delicious, flavorful & homemade.

If you're looking for authentic Rashti cuisine that truly feels homemade, Rashti Cafe is the place to be! From the first bite, I could tell the food was made with love & care-it reminded me so much of my grandma's cooking. Every dish was perfectly prepared, with rich flavors & the kind of quality you'd expect from a home-cooked meal.
The authenticity of the flavors really stood out, & everything tasted just like real Rashti food. The highlight for me was the tea-it was original from Gilan, with a deep, aromatic flavor that completed the experience perfectly. If you're craving traditional, high-quality Rashti dishes, I highly recommend this place!View more

Cute decoration, cozy, the food was ok. There was only one guy who worked there & was so busy that was able to pickup our dirty dishes from our table on time. He was nice though. High ceiling & super cold!!! I was freezing the entire time! I liked the idea of putting different games for people to pick & play…View more
