I recently visited this restaurant in Montreal & felt like I was back home at a'mehmooni.' The shishlik kebab was amazing, & the ghormeh sabzi was incredibly tender & delicious. We also tried the lamb shank, which was the closest thing to'zir berenji' we've had since our days in Lorestan, Iran. They even offered complimentary loose tea & carrot cake, & a bowl of soup on the house, which was a lovely touch. A wonderful experience all around!

Absolutely love this restaurant. Been a few times over the years. Everything is so good & the owners are always friendly. Plus they have my favorite Iranian dessert, falooda, which I can't find in other restos in the city.

I have ordered kale pacheh & halim to take out, the first one was good but halim was totally ordinary. Then next time we go there as dine in, the only reason which I give two stars is the waitress who was a nice lady with a smile on her face otherwise the food was obviously stale, the chicken sous had a bad smell so that my wife barely eat the food, the environment was depressing the saloon was dime & also they played very old-fashion music that made you cry! Finally we found an ant on the dining table!

We celebrated my boyfriends birthday over the weekend & really enjoyed our evening. We were a group of about ~15 people. We got a group menu & everything was delicious. Soup, salad, entrees, main, all of it. & it's a byob so that's a plus. I spent 115$ for two people, you don't see that anymore these days.
