Café Restaurant Nab is described as a warm, family run Persian restaurant with a truly authentic feel, where generous portions, reasonable prices, and thoughtful hospitality create a homey dining experience. Reviewers repeatedly praise the kebabs, especially koobideh and kebab torsh, the kaleh pacheh, ghormeh sabzi, and saffron rice with tahdig for their depth of flavor and careful preparation, with the rice and tahdig often highlighted as standouts. The atmosphere is consistently described as cozy and inviting, with tasteful Persian decor and occasional live traditional music, while the staff are noted for being friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The food is praised for freshness and high quality ingredients, and many say the dishes taste homemade and reflect real Persian cooking. A few comments mention occasional delays or service hiccups in busy times, but the overall impression is that Café Restaurant Nab is among the best Persian places in the city, great for family meals, groups, or romantic nights, and that many guests plan to return with friends and family to try more dishes.

If you're looking for an authentic & unforgettable dining experience, this Iranian restaurant is a must-visit! From the moment you step in, you're greeted with warm hospitality & an inviting ambiance. The food is absolutely exquisite-perfectly seasoned kebabs, fragrant saffron rice, & rich stews that transport you straight to Iran. The flavors are fresh, bold, & perfectly balanced. Their freshly baked bread & dips were also irresistible. Every dish is crafted with care, showcasing the richness of Iranian culinary heritage. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a unique & delicious meal. Whether you're a fan of Middle Eastern cuisine or trying it for the first time, this restaurant will leave you raving. I'll definitely be returning soon! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent food! Such top tier quality using fresh ingredients! Portions are large & food was so flavourful. I've tried many persian restaurants & this is the best I've tried so far! I'll be making the trek from ottawa, often!

Dined here for my third time recently, & as in the previous occasions,
Yas did not disappoint. I preface the herein review by admitting that I'm partial to Persian cuisine: the freshness, spices, tastes & complexities of the cuisine appeal to me. More particular to Yas, the Must-o-khiar & must-o-mussir are tasty, & while the hummus does not compare to those of the Lebanese variant, the mirza ghasemi is one of the better of such plates I've eaten locally. The chicken dishes were of good quality & appetizingly presented, & the pricing was fair in comparison to other Persian fine dining establishments.

The restaurant is quaint, if close-quartered, & makes for a romantic evening. Service is friendly, professional & prompt. All-in-all, an enjoyable, exotic experience.
