We stumbled upon Nab while visiting Montreal, & stepping inside felt like walking into a traditional restaurant in Iran. The atmosphere was warm & inviting, with a cozy charm that immediately made us feel at home. The food was truly special - homemade with care & thoughtful little touches that brought each dish to life. You can tell a lot of heart goes into everything they serve. The service was equally impressive - attentive, kind, & full of small details that made the experience memorable. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic flavors & genuine hospitality!

The prices were very reasonable, & the hospitality of the owners was beyond excellent. They were warm, polite, & made us feel right at home. Highly recommended for anyone craving real Iranian cuisine with top-notch service!

Absolutely loved this place - so much that we decided to go back on our second day in Montreal! The food was incredibly fresh & had that real homemade taste. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, & the owners were so kind & friendly.
On our first visit, we had chelo kebab,Mahicheh, & kebab torsh. The second day we tried chelo kebab again (it was that good!), plus ghormeh sabzi with fresh salad shirazi & gheimeh bademjan. Everything was delicious & clearly made with care.
They also bring you a complimentary soup with bread, which was a really nice touch.
If we ever visit Montreal again, we'll definitely come back here. Highly recommend!
Excellent restaurant with food & service. It is a nice place to meet family & friends. I recommend it to anyone looking for delicious family iranian cuisine .
A truly beautiful traditional Persian atmosphere that immediately transports you. The food was exceptional. Had one of the best Kashk Bademjan ever & the tender Shishlik was the highlight. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a genuine Persian dining experience!

After a long time I found my favourite Persian Kebab there. Highly recommended!!!!
The portion is enough for a person but a bit increase will make it super perfect.
An exceptional Persian dining experience! The food was not only authentic but bursting with rich, traditional flavors. The service was incredibly warm & welcoming. The setting is charming & cozy, with delightful décor that adds to the overall ambiance. A true hidden gem-highly recommended!
If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. The husband & wife that own the place (the wife is also the cook!) are very welcoming & the sweetest. I ordered takeout for a small meal, & the food more than exceeded my expectations. I got the mirza ghasemi with a side of saffron rice & the damnosh tea.
Mirza ghasemi: I don't think any words I use to describe this dish can do it justice. The eggplant was melt-in-your-mouth & had the most amazing grilled/smoky flavor, & it was made even better by the egg. Highly recommend getting this.
Saffron rice: To me, rice is supplementary to a meal & can even be omitted. But this saffron rice could be standalone. The flavor that came from the saffron & the scorchedness...I think my heart stopped a little.
Domnosh: This was such a pleasure to drink. Such delicate flavors & subtly sweet.
The food & drinks here are so good & made with such attention & care. It's really worth checking out.
