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.
Best persian food i've ever had. 10/10 would definitely recommend & will be back. The staff is very welcoming, the owners are really friendly & portions are massive for the price!

The combination of mouthwatering dishes & sweet, attentive service makes it a standout in a city full of great options. Highly recommend! It's rare to find a restaurant where both the quality of food & the kindness of the people are equally exceptionaI. We had family dinner & went back the next day for breakfast.

L'ambiance est parfaite, le service est impeccable, la nourriture est excellente, & servit rapidement. Demandez leurs recommandations pour les plats. Un des meilleurs restaurant à Montreal si vous recherchez une ambiance Perse. Vraiment satisfait 👏
We had an amazing evening at Café Persan Nab! Everything exceeded our expectations. The food, service, & atmosphere were all exceptional; & the prices were very reasonable. Atbin & his family warmly welcomed us, while also allowing us full privacy to enjoy our meal leisurely over several hours. The platform seating option with rugs & cushions was so cozy! We can't wait to return to this hidden gem. Highly recommend!

I was visiting Montreal for the first time I was looking for some good food to have with my cousins. I found this restaurant & It did not disappoint. very friendly family owned restaurant & they are pretty much open, but I don't know why the app says temporarily closed. It might be a mistake. I will definitely be back & recommend people.
A true Persian experience in a beautiful designed place with the friendliest staff specially Atbin. The food was as expected so delicious & fresh, we tried 3 different Kababs(roll kebab, torsh & koobideh). Highly recommended to anyone who wants to have a decent persian meal.
This place is incredible! The kebab was delicious, with generous portions & excellent quality. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for amazing food!
