Review Summary

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.

Restaurant Yas is one of my very favourite restaurants in Montreal. The only things better than the food are the service & decor. The restaurant is very charming, it has the appeal of a wine cellar - earth-tone brick, stone & tile. About 3m from the entrance is a depanneur where you can buy beer & wine to enjoy with your meal. All the usual soft drinks are available at Yas, as well as excellent coffee & tea. The staff are friendly & welcoming. They have quite a good selection of tasty Persian food. If you enjoy desserts they have a good selection, although I've never made it further on the menu than the baklava, which is excellent. I recommend trying Restaurant Yas; street parking is available, or use Metro Vendome.

A bit pricey however, the dishes, including the entree merited the cost.
Everything was excellent, including the service.
Both mains of lamb & fillet were delicious !

Will absolutely return.

This restaurant/experience was simply amazing. The outside does not look very appealing, but DO NOT think twice about it! Once inside, you'll see a very nice & clean looking restaurant. The waitress was very friendly & answered all our questions about Persian food very attentively. The ambiance was really nice. I brought my date here & she loved it. There wasn't too many people around so it was very quiet to converse, & the Persian music was very lovely background. We had their homemade bread which was very light, with two dipping sauces. We ordered the eggplant/onion which was very tasty. My gf had vegetarian shish kebab with rice & I had chicken with barberry. They were both excellent, super hot, & delicious. The portions were perfect so that you were filled. The chicken was very well cooked, but still soft & juicy. We ended with a tea. Service was excellent, food came promptly & was very well presented. We were very impressed & will be definitely be returning. In general, the food was very healthy which was also a plus for us!

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.
